Found the actual astronaut.
Was waiting for thatâŚ
Without giving too much away he travels across the distance of four planets, a few billion miles, with a cut shot! No montage or massively extending wide shot to hint at the distance, no obligatory computer saying how long itâs going to take before entering âHypersleepâ he just instantaneously arrives at his destination with a bit of stubbleâŚ

If we didnât have the âlikeâ facility here I would absolutely reply to this with:
Hahahaha!

Wouldnât that be what hypersleep really felt like? Close your eyes, then open them and 6 months has passed.
Thatâs the issue though, he doesnât appear to go in to âHypersleepâ it just cuts from his start point to him landing and he looks like heâs been on a long haul flight. In a way I quite like the removal of the cliche, but itâs where I would have inserted a monologue and shown some travel perhaps, being a well known film maker and allâŚ
Like some Indiana Jones line flying over a space map, that would of been cool, hehe.

the most disappointing film of the year
Clearly they havenât seen Midsommar.
Is that shit?
I wanted to see it as a mate kinda described it as kids being drugged at a festival and it being all woozy/trippy/psychological/horror etc. I expected something more modern like some Colundi festival with some creepy nutters, then I saw the trailer and it was more Wicker man. Nothing like I imagined but still wanted to see/feel to see the awkward trippyness but have not gotten around to it.
Midsommar was great, albeit if someone said they didnât like it i could understand.
Thought it was absolute dogshit. Some American teenagers (of course) go on holiday to Sweden, to their mateâs commune. See how when Edward Woodward arrives on Summerisle, and thereâs something just not quite right, something sinister and creepy? Well itâs fuck all like that. Everybody is singing and dancing, and thereâs a couple of utterly unnecessary drug scenes. You can tell who the leaders are because theyâve got different dresses on. Oh yeah, and one of the guys was about to split up with his girlfriend. Not sure why, or how that matters.
So itâs them walking around this caricature version of The Wicker Man for two and a half hours, with incredibly predictable consequences. I wonât spoil the end since you deserve something for watching it all the way through, but Iâll tell you now that you wonât care what happens to those people because theyâre so devoid of personality or character that we donât even know who they are. And also they all die apart from the white girl.
Judithâs been hacked, surely.
Haha.

Five minutes in and thatâs basically what youâre wanting/expecting anyway.

Didnât like it then? 
Saw the new Chris Morris film the other day, the day Shall Come, interested to see what people make of it. Itâs no Four Lions but does have some interesting moments. Didnât quite have the biting satire Iâd hoped for, felt a bit too straightforward plot wise.
Seen the trailer and it just doesnât appeal for some reason. Looks too broad and has that annoying Anna Kendrick in it
TL:DRrrrrrr
A shite attempt at The Wicker Man.

It was definitely more satire than comedy. An easily explained guide too how American police agencies work (for Americans?). Donât think I really laughed once. Iâm guessing that it is a fine line to wanting to joke about terrorism in America and not offending Americans these days. The way the world is about humour at the moment.
I got a automated email from the Muslim Sisters of Eire while watching it. The paranoia is real.
