That does look pretty good, I watched Hereditary for the first time recently and although I enjoyed it, I didn't think it lived up to the hype

This has been rumoured for years, sequel to I Spit on Your Grave

Could well have been earlier, just remember reading an article about it in ‘17 and it had already been filmed.

Makes a change from the usual superhero movie, really seems a what if story of superman if he wasn't raised by the Kents or was just a little psycho.

£663million at the box office

This must not come as a surprise to anyone!

Oh, hallelujah. Sense prevails. Between this and the new Ghostbusters, are we finally starting to move on from normal people having to jump because morons on Twitter say so?

Don't hold your breath!

James Gunn is rebooting Suicide Squad before returning to Guardians of the Galaxy | The Digital Fix

"With The Suicide Squad set for release in 2021, it now looks like Guardians of the Galaxy 3 might well come towards the end of the next phase of the MCU maybe even as late as 2022; despite already having a script penned by Gunn before he was unceremoniously dropped last year."

I was sceptical about the idea for the film, but it does look really entertaining.

Even if it's a poor film, it has a great cast


Dave Boy 2nd April 2019 03:29 PM

Oh man. Took me ages to book a ticket for AVENGERS ENDGAME on the Cineworld website. Site was slow and kept crashing. Lost count how many times I had to log in and pick a seat. I even got to the payment part and it crashes with a server error. Site traffic must be really heavy. Midnight show sold out already.
Anyway, I'm all booked in at last but what a nightmare.

You're not alone!

The following appeared in the Portsmouth Evening News. [I have pasted it because it's probably hidden behind a pay-wall thing]

"Portsmouth movie fans facing hour plus wait to book Avengers: Endgame tickets online for Vue in Gunwharf Quays

TICKETS for the Avengers: Endgame have gone on sale and cinema fans are facing lengthy online queues if they want to book them.

The main cinema in Portsmouth city centre is Vue at Gunwharf Quays and due to the overwhelming demand its website is warning it will take over an hour to book tickets.

Avengers: Endgame, the sequel to 2018’s Infinity War, comes out on Thursday, April 25.

Fans have eagerly waited a year to find out the conclusion to the previous film’s blockbuster cliff-hanger which ended with half the life in the universe being wiped out.

Tickets became available today and cinema websites have been struggling to cope with the influx in demand

On the Vue website customers are faced with a message that reads: ‘We are currently using a virtual queue as a result of exceptional demand.

‘Your queue time is displayed below. Thank you for your patience.

‘Expected arrival time on the website: more than an hour


While any customers attempting to book tickets for showings at the Odeon cinema in Port Solent are greeted with a ‘Error 503 Service Unavailable’ message on the website."

Dave Boy 2nd April 2019 05:20 PM

Yeah, It's was hell!
I had that server 503 message as well.
When I got through to one cinema screen, it was nearly empty with seats but you just could not book a seat because when you clicked it crashed.
One time all was well until I clicked to send my payment and the server crashed at that exact moment.
It must have taken me at least an hour of mucking around as well before I got a ticket.

The first trailer for 'Joker'

It's hardly 'laugh-a-minute' stuff!


nosferatu42 3rd April 2019 05:08 PM

I just watched that, i was unsure when i heard about it but to me it actually looks pretty interesting.
Looks a lot better than the shitty suicide squad version of the Joker.:pop2:

Demdike@Cult Labs 3rd April 2019 05:59 PM

Looks a hell of a lot better than Thanos and all that cosmic bollocks.

He looks quite freaky in some of those shots. His body looks all twisted.

Yeah, the trailer has that Gotham tv series vibe. I thought that was superb, hopefully DC keep their superheroes more down to earth as in my opinion that works better.

I did like the early MCU films, but they've just become ridiculous. Avengers Assemble is a genuine 9/10.

I watched Guardians 2 and Ant-Man for the first time last weekend and thought they were brilliant, both really funny :nod:

Both Ant Man films are decent. Again though they are down to earth affairs.

Apocalypse Now: Final Cut Announced

Francis Ford Coppola's Masterpiece With New Version, 4K Master & Sound

For the film’s 40th anniversary, Francis Ford Coppola presented us with a new version of his anti-war film Apocalypse Now (1979). He himself calls it Final Cut. But if he wants to follow Oliver Stone's example, he can make an Ultimate Cut after the Final Cut in a few years. After Alexander's "final" 3rd version, Stone added a fourth, "Ultimate" version. But this is another story and can be read here in the comparison.

The story of Apocalypse Now starts with a 289-minute workprint version of the film, which was released on VHS a long time ago, but never officially released. It was made before the Cannes premiere in 1979. There, Coppola showed a shorter "work-in-progress" version of the film, which lasted about 3 hours and won the Palme d’or, the highest award of the film festival. Afterwards, the director shortened the film by many scenes and so, in the autumn of 1979, the official theatrical version came to the cinemas with a runtime of only about 147 minutes.

There were also differences regarding the credits. There is a version without credits in the early 70mm version that has only a copyright notice. For the 35mm version there were real credits, which were placed over recordings of explosions and the burning jungle. But when Coppola found out that moviegoers thought that Willard had ordered an air strike on Kurtz's base in the jungle because the scenes suggested it to viewers, he changed the credits and now you can only see classic white text on a black background.

In 2001, the so-called Redux version had its premiere at Cannes. The film reached a runtime of 196 minutes and is therefore even longer than the first Cannes version. Even though Coppola has had the privilege of having final cut for his films since The Godfather (1971), - i.e. in principle he can bring the version to cinemas that he wants to screen there -, he always tried to take suggestions from the studio, the financiers and foreign distributors into consideration. And what did these parties often dislike? Films that run very long. This often diminished the success at the box office due to fewer screenings during the day.

So, the director shortened Apocalypse Now, more than he himself thought was optimal. Coppola also realized that the film wasn't necessarily mainstream and removed scenes for the 1979 theatrical version that seemed a bit stranger to a "normal" audience. But cinema and audience continue to develop and with time crazy ideas become normal. Therefore, many years later, Coppola re-inserted most of the scenes because he didn't consider them to be so strange anymore. But here he exaggerated according to his own statement in the Deadline report linked below and added more than he thinks makes sense today. Details about the Redux version can be found in our detailed comparison.

The latest version, the Final Cut, will have its premiere on April 28, 2019 at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York. The film was rescanned from the original negatives in 4K resolution. In addition, it has been upgraded with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos and should look and sound better than ever before. For this version, Coppola was now looking for the optimal film length somewhere between the 147 minutes of the theatrical version and the 196 minutes of the Redux version. We will know after the premiere what has been removed from the film or what other changes were made.

'Grease' Prequel 'Summer Loving' in the Works | Hollywood Reporter

"...However, in the early part of the movie 'Grease', in a he-said/she-said manner, Zuko and Olsson both recount to their friends a summer fling they had via the song "Summer Nights." Zuko’s tale is more graphic, while Olsson’s is much innocent and wistful.

The prequel's story is said to tackle that fateful meeting."

Justin101 10th April 2019 09:09 AM

How wrong is it that I'm in two minds about going to see the new Avengers film on release day (I'm off work that week) because the running time is 182 minutes :lol:

I don't know if I should just wait a few months and watch it at home haha... 3 hours plus adverts plus trailers....

I'm exactly the same, must be an age thing :lol:

Dave Boy 10th April 2019 10:00 AM

Na, can't be an age thing. I'm probably one of the oldies on this site and I can't wait. I'll happily sit through this length of film. The longer the better.
If cinemas were not so greedy there would be an intermission like there used to be and people could go to the loo or stretch there legs for 10 mins.

Justin101 10th April 2019 10:04 AM

I'd be happy to go if there was an intermission :lol:
It's not the length of the film so much as knowing that as soon as you take a sip of your drink you'll be dying for the toilet when everything starts getting exciting!

Rik 10th April 2019 10:07 AM

Vue are showing Infinity War and Endgame as a double bill, starts at 8:30pm and finishes at 3:10am, even though there's obviously a break between the films, I don't think I could sit there all that time!

trebor8273 10th April 2019 10:48 AM

Had my tickets booked for a couple of weeks,as with Odeon limitless it only cost me £5 for the recliner seats, so a lot more comfortable with more leg room, but it would be nice for a intermission.

Susan Foreman 10th April 2019 11:02 AM

I think it was John Waters who said that the ideal length for a film is 85 minutes
