I finally got around to watching Fury Road.
It’s as good as everyone said.
Just finished Godzilla x Kong last night after 3 attempts at watching it. I fell asleep the first 2 times because I’ve been very busy and was too exhausted come evening. It was fun watching all the monster fights as usual, but everything else was just a mess of storytelling and felt like random lore thrown in to tie thing together.
I’m watching Civil War this week when I have the time.
As for TV, I finally watched the last episode of Sugar after 3 weeks of not being able to catch the finale. It was ok, but not good or bad or anything. I thought it was gonna be a one-off thing but it looks like they intend to have another season at least. Also started the first 2 episodes of Dark Matter but haven’t had the time to continue yet.

Yes, I was left with the feeling that this was very much a kid’s movie (despite the only audience when I went was me and another middle age bloke watching it on his own) when earlier outings didn’t feel that way. I can feel my interest in the franchise waning considerably, at a time when the Japanese version just keeps getting better.
Flight, Sully, Django, Free State of Jones, Dunkirk, Dogma, Baelin’s Route.
Next up '71 (2014), The White Tiger, The Gentleman (2019), and perhaps Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Not a lot so far.
Terminator: Genisys (Only seen once on release, gave it a second chance.) Letterboxd review.
Red Tails. Took a chance on this Blu-ray from a charity shop. I’m glad the charity got 50p. Not happy about the film. Letterboxd review.
Finally, rewatched Sky High, a Disney superhero film from 2005. Well worth your time. Full review on my blog.
My gf wanted to watch all of Mad Max after we’ve seen Fallout. I was entirely unaware of 1979 movie and thought Road Warrior was the first one. My impressions are that it sucked.
