Disney now has the rights to the X Men and Fantastic Four franchises, hopefully it wont be long till we see them pop up in the MCU! Oh and Disney will now own The Simpsons and Sky TV! 1 hour ago, Matt said: Does that mean they get the X Men? I know you can read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 saw star wars and loved it. i didn't like episode 7 (basically episode 4 redux) but this was back to the campy, goofy, comical star wars that the original 3 were.

Ending still leaves a tear in my eye though, no matter how many times I see it. I'm a wimp. rubecula 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn balor Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 It wasn’t bad. I wasn’t expecting much but the four main characters had good chemistry. Jack black was good. As always they are far fetched but I enjoyed it. But once again that Karen Gillian has got the lot aaron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you honestly telling me that you've never seen "The Great Escape"? Put that right asap (and let me know whether Steve McQueen makes the jump this time; you'll understand if you watch).

Never seen anything in IMAX; had the option to watch Jedi tomorrow in "reclining screen" but as it was £17.50 each gave it a swerve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
