Edge of Tomorrow, and God Bless America: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2015/...ndhog-war.html Both undervalued gems. I really enjoyed Edge Of Tomorrow even with the plot holes and mad hand wavium!

"God Bless America" has been in my Netflix queue for a while. Figured it'd be my cup o' joe. Looks like I was right.

I really enjoyed Edge Of Tomorrow even with the plot holes and mad hand wavium! The bit at the end is a little "eh? How so?" but I just say 'oh who cares, I'm enjoying this' ... and, well, it's somink to do wiv sci-fi innit? "God Bless America" has been in my Netflix queue for a while. Figured it'd be my cup o' joe. Looks like I was right. Shoot it on up the queue, Moon - it's a cracking flick.

Yeh. Thought both films were pretty good. Agree on the end of 'Edge of Tomorrow', but didn't care. It's sci-fi anyway, so anything goes really. 'God Bless America' is great too, but a little short? I seem to remember that it ends a bit abruptly. The beginning is great.

'God Bless America' is great too, but a little short? I seem to remember that it ends a bit abruptly. The beginning is great. It does end a little bit abruptly, I agree ... and could have been a tad bigger ... but it still worked. Also, yeah, that moment near the beginning is kind of the deciding factor on whether you as a viewer are going to be up for the rest of the movie!

"Barbed Wire Dolls" (Jess Franco, 1976): http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2015/...-1976-dvd.html A film which begs the question: at what point do shorts simply just become underwear?!

"Barbed Wire Dolls" (Jess Franco, 1976): http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2015/...-1976-dvd.html A film which begs the question: at what point do shorts simply just become underwear?! No. YES!!!

[MinionZombie]

I was wondering if Moon would be the first to respond to this one. The second picture is positively conservative by comparison to the first, which is fairly accurate in comparative terms to Monica Swinn's outfit in the movie.

YES!!! Where is the clear cache option on my brain!

There are some things you can't unsee.

Interstellar: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2015/...ni-review.html

[shootemindehead]

Yeh, just watched that today myself. One of the greatest sci fi films I have ever seen.

Fly Me (Cirio Santiago, 1973): http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2015/...73-review.html Kung-fu-kickin' stewardesses from the sexy 70s take on drug runners, people traffickers, and virtue-protecting mothers! ... Yeh, just watched that today myself. One of the greatest sci fi films I have ever seen. Definitely one that lingers in the mind, too ... I'll be giving it another spin sometime soon, methinks.

The Bling Ring, Olympus Has Fallen, and Transformers: Age of Extinction: http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2015/...g-deja-vu.html 1) Emma Watson & Co get totes cray-cray as they pilfer prestigious plunder from celebrity abodes. 2) The one that isn't "White House Down" and doesn't have Channing Tatum in it. 3) A bunch of CGI punches another bunch of CGI beside conveniently placed advertisements for three hours.
