I don't think I added the genres, but it's possible the idea of children with a genetic condition would put it into the science-fiction category.

It's been years since I read Second Variety (the book on which Screamers is based) and don't think I've seen the film adaptation, so will put that on my 'to buy' list for when my pile of things to watch has significantly shrink.

It's rather cheap on musicmagpie

I know as I've just gone there and ordered it with Red Hill (Blu-ray), Possessed (DVD) and the Morcheeba album Who Can You Trust? all for £4.

Iron Man 2 (2010)

One of the worst MCU films. A crushingly disappointing follow-up to the high quality of the first. They really rushed into making this one after the phenomenal success of its predecessor, but this is something they learned from. Well, mostly learned from. It at least has moments though, like all of Marvel's worst cinematic productions.

I don't mind Iron Man 2. I actually prefer it to 3.

I don't like either much. I think they're both as disappointing as each other for different reasons. Marvel did a much better job with the character in The Avengers 1 & 2 and Captain America: Civil War.

Ed Norton's The Incredible Hulk is the only MCU film that I dislike enough to not want to own a copy. Bought it but quickly sold it off.

I've been working my way through the MCU, both films and TV series, and was surprised how much I enjoyed Iron Man 2 after being extremely underwhelmed and disappointed at the cinema.

I actually quite enjoyed The Incredible Hulk, despite its fair amount of faults. It's far from being one of the best MCU films, but I had a blast with it going cinema to see it. It was the best version of Hulk at that point, and the climax is spectacular.

Weirdly I really like the Ang Lee Hulk film (most folks don't!). Cinematography is fantastic imo. Only thing I don't like is that Hulk gets physically bigger as a visual representation of how he becomes more powerful, the angrier he gets.

I actually quite like Ang Lee's version too. It's an interesting watch.
