To be fair, it was nominated for Best Picture and won Best Animated feature. Loads of other awards and all the critics loved the first three. Our family return to it all the time. It’s unquestionably the best trilogy ever.Quote:

It’s one of the very few perfect films.Quote:

Brilliant.

I’m sure there’s an interesting story from Spielberg about Jaws becoming the film it is partly through luck. There were issues with the animatronic shark and because of that the film changed to being more psychological and for the better seeing less of the actual shark.Quote:

As has been said, you spend more time focussed on some yellow barrels as a proxy for the shark, but that adds to the tension as you know it’s something dangerous but can’t see it
The greatest ever beer run on Apple TV, true story, enjoyable watch crazy crazy story though
Went to see the Robbie Williams movie today, it’s a lot better than I expected! Really enjoyed it, definitely worth going to see.
I also thought it was excellent - my daughter thought it was mince.😂Quote:

We watched wicked last night, Ariana Grande looks ill (which with everything that’s happened in her life, wouldn’t be surprising) and the film is generally brutal. I hate musicals, she loved it though. What a waste of two and a bit hours that was.

Anyway saw Donny Osmond at the Playhouse last week doing his Elvis impersonation absolute quality
Quick Google says that AG has a naturally high vocal range meaning she can hit high notes many singers can't.Quote:

For some reason I just don't fancy this. I guess the trailer looked like the prequel we didn't need, for the harry Potter generation.
I was saved from further torture when my IPTV froze could not be arsed rebooting it decided to watch something else which is not like me as my motto is ‘ persevere ‘Quote:

In retaliation for last nights cruel and unusual punishment, tonight I am subjecting the good lady to Star Trek II. Great film, one of my all time favourites, justice is done[emoji28]

The best musical ever has to be The Blues Brothers. All other answers are wrong 😀Quote:
