Sorry mate, surely spending about £6 on a small bag of popcorn is pure commoner idiocy?

Of course it is, only plebs buy overpriced cinema snacks.
I'll accept that as an apology. The lolling at the squash still stands.
I'm lolling at buying pre-popped popcorn too, just in case there was any doubt. You should get some Dairylea Lunchables to go with it.
Smuggling a microwave in to the pictures would be quite hard, not least finding an outlet to plug it in to.
It'd be tough to curdle the cheese for homemade Lunchables as well - definitely the only option to buy from Asda.
So you never eat whilst watching a film at the movies?
Cracking banter lads.
My God. It's part of the enjoyment for me even though I'm normally finished by the end of the trailers.
Everest was okay-ish. Not quite as visually impressive as I'd hoped but tense nonetheless.
Cinema food is shite. They don't even sell lettuce.
I guess I can see why but Owen Wilson was a very good choice of lead to keep it on the right side of lightness for me.
Depending on how quickly they download, it'll be one of:
Inside Out
San Andreas
Tomorrowland
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl
Tonight.
I'm watching He Got Game in honor of Spike Lee's wretchedly awful video-game attempt
That Public Enemy song.
Jesus Shuttlesworth? Really?
Watch the bloody film ffs.
HOLY SHIT.
HE GOT GAME IS A PREQUEL TO NBA 2K16. It's the same agent. He even makes the same speech.
Odeon are binning 'Bargain Monday' (formerly 'Bargain Tuesday') due to a 'big increase in the number of guests enjoying our flexible promotions'; that is to say that fucking meerkat wheeze and Groupon. What? I don't want 'flexibility' if it means titting about on insurance sites and buying thirty tickets at once (I've never used Groupon obviously). You wankers.
The moment you realise Kanye's entire fashion line is based off Denzel in 'He Got Game'
Can't you keep the live-tweeting of films to Twitter, @phonics?
So it's arseholes like that that have ruined it.
I watched The Eagle, which is a few years old and concerns the disappearance of the ninth Roman legion in 2nd century Britain.
It's pretty boring, although it does get points for an effort at historical authenticity.
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl was in the cinema here only a week or two ago. Is that proper dvd quality out already? Is the US that far ahead?
It premiered at Sundance in January, it's probably a leaked awards copy. Maybe. I don't really know how these things work but there are Bluray versions on TPB.
It's a 1080p job, or at least I think it is/it claims to be, I haven't watched it yet.
Was knackered, so went for San Andreas and fell asleep during it. From what I saw, which admittedly wasn't much, it looked bobbins.
San Andreas is bobbins, but it's bobbins with numerous shots of Alexandra Daddario running so there's plenty of market for it.
There's also a thoroughly bizarre, isolated use of 'fuck' about halfway through, without which it woulf probably have been a '12'.
Was it 15 then?
I'm sure I've heard 'fuck' used in 12A's before.
I thought 'fuck' meant an automatic 15 rating, but apparently it was a 12A so either I'm mistaken or that's changed. It's still bizarre that they chose to use the word where they did though, since there are numerous situations involving that particular character where she should be saying it once it's established that it's in her vocabulary. As it is, it fits into the film about as nicely as the sex joke in Battle: LA.
The 'Me and Earl' copy that's around online is excellent DVD quality, and the film itself is lovely. Not 'fucking beautiful', as Spoon put it, and it threatens to smother itself with twee rubbish early on, but once it gets going it's charming and sweet and quite funny in places.
IIRC Made in Dagenham got a 15 because it used the F word too many times (to the point of normalising it, not that that bothers me), so there must be a limit that you can stick in a 12A and get away with.
I recently watched both Maze Runner films. I liked that they're were almost two completely different genres, and the cast do a really good job. Worth a watch if you're fancying a film but not sure what, I'd say.
I'm a twit
Toss up between Southpaw and Dope later, I think. The latter will probably get the nod. Anyone seen either of them?
I'm a twit
I watched The Interview last night won't get that time back.
I watched The Visit. Extremely average.
Just heard Kermode's impression of Nick Nolte from the podcast a couple of weeks back.
Yeah, that was what made it for me too.
You're listening thinking there's no chance this is on point and then it so was.
I just accidentally switched over to That's My Boy.
Adam Sandler plays the exact same shit character in every film. Every shit film.
He is either trolling the whole world with this shit, or has genuinely given up having any sort of credibility.
This is shaping up to possibly be quite good.

Black Mass is a great watch. Depp is a fucking revelation as Bulger, its a bit generic and by the numbers but its a typical crime film arc.
I'd recommend Sicario too but I watched a TS copy as my hype for it is too much. Its fucking brilliant but gonna get to the cinema and watch it again. Villeneuve really is God tier.
Downloaded Black Mass today. I've got a shit load of stuff backed up now to watch.
