šŸ“½ Films I have seen

If youā€™re expecting Game of Thrones I think youā€™re going to be disappointed. This is after all, a show aimed at children, much like the films were aimed at children.

I think the first season had some great self-contained Star Wars stories, far more in the spirit of the originals. Itā€™s a formula that has been lifted for the live action Mandalorian show.

A lot of the three-episode shows could easily be adapted into kick-ass Star Wars films, and I think that basically all the characters are handled better.

I also like the fact that everyone knows Jar Jar is a fucking joke. Just watched an episode where Padmeā€™s ship gets destroyed and she asks Threepio if it was droids. It wasnā€™t.

Her next guess was Jar Jar.

So, Iā€™ve just finished the whole of the Clone Wars, season 6 was good but season 7 was excellent.

Given what is about to happen with Star Wars Rebels, which was recorded before S7 of the Clone Wars, you can see why they made S7 5 years after the end of S6.

Iā€™m quite pumped for watching Rebels now, although I understand (from my son) that that too is a slow burner.

Itā€™s already better than game of thrones.

This is fairly old news, init?

If the first films were about choice, I reckon these ones might be about identity.

I have that feeling given the directorsā€™ personal journeys.

Anyone after some decent time travel a sci-fi should watch Coherence and Predestination on prime. Try not to read up on either them first.

I was watching Holmes and Watson, for something to watch, when your post came in. H&W was, quite frankly, crap so I watched Coherence, it wasnā€™t very coherent but thought provoking.

Iā€™ve just finished watching Predestination, Iā€™ve seen it before but forgot about it. I quite enjoyed itā€¦

Just watched Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom. I thought this one was pretty good. In fact, I think all the Jurassic Park movies are pretty good. Is there a more consistent five-film non-rebooted series of films?

Hmmm, interesting question, what have we got for comparisonā€¦

Rambo - Not seen them all so hard to comment.
Terminator - Terrible after T2
Star Wars - Terrible after Jedi and arguably soft reboot for final trilogy.
Mission impossible has been fairly consistent apart from the second installment,

Havenā€™t seen them but would Harry Potter be a contender?

Also does the MCU not count?

Against my initial reservations, I actually thought the most recent Terminator was quite good. Not up to the level of the first two obviously, but a decent film.
