Just watched Son of Batman last month. And now I'm waiting for Bat Blood and The Killing Joke, which is going to release in 2016.

Why I like watching Bat movie? Cause I'm the fckin Batman :3

I checked out The Revenant today, pretty fucking full on.

I'm so hyped for that movie man. Even more so than for The Hateful Eight.

I'm pretty hyped up for both of those movies.

I got off work early yesterday so I could go see The Hateful Eight with a girl from there. It was a really great movie, but the pacing was rather slow. I mean, the movie is like 3 hours and it takes place in a time-span of 12 or so.
Nonetheless, some satisfyingly morbid scenes in there, which every movie lover should be able to enjoy. Would give it a 9/10 or something.

hateful eight was ok

the revenant was beautiful but also brutal

Just saw Star Wars and I gotta say it was extremely entertaining. I haven't seen the others, but I doubt they'll be able to live up to this one.
Something that didn't make sense was the motivation behind Kilo San to be a villain, but it's whatever.

What? Are you saying you haven't seen the original trilogy? The original Star Wars trilogy is probably the most influential series of films in the history of cinema. I don't think anything in the Star Wars franchise could top the impact the original films had.

Kylo Ren seemed like a pretty bland villain. His main motivation was to live up to the legacy of Darth Vader, but he comes across as an angsty teenager.

I really liked Star Wars. But I think I went in to the cinema with my expectations too high, maybe. It was like I was expecting to be absolutely mesmerised, but was let down, not by the film, but by my own expectations.

One thing I would have really wanted for TFA, was for a better score. I felt the music isn't on par with what the previous 6 movies had.

Rey got really overpowered, really, really fast. Took away a little bit of it from me. :(
But it wasn't much, I don't want to nit-pick.

I didn't get attached to any of the characters, really. I liked Finn and Rey, but couldn't have cared less about Poe. X

I was expecting to be blown away, like I was when I was younger. Must've just matured too much for that. :)

Spoiler:

I'm looking forward to seeing more of Luke in the next movie.
That island out at sea is a big tourist attraction at the moment here in Ireland. :)

Went to The Revenant last Sunday, all I can say is that movie is fantastically gruesome, yet satisfying. Would definitely recommend.

Leo can't win an Oscar, it's one if the laws of physics

[Jack]

In the past couple of weeks, I saw Daddy's Home (apparently PG-13), Battleship (apparently not directed by Michael Bay), and Inside Out (actually a lot more than I expected, it reminds me of the Pixar I grew up with, before everything became sequels.)

[Lord]

Looking forward to the Oscars. There's a number of Irish candidates in there. :D
