Oh damn, in some ways better than I expected and in some ways worse. I'm still on the fence about this one.

Saw Mad Max: Fury Road and Ant-Man recently. Not impressed with either one of them.

Also watched the trailer for Rendel on ImDb. Finlands answer to Deadpool?

Guardians Of The Galaxy 2: Good fun, easily as enjoyable as the first one. The end drags on a bit though.

Alien Covenant: Not as watchable as "Prometheus", but certainly a whole lot less "what the fuck just happened". Elements of each of the previous installments of the franchise are blended to satisfying effect, Ridley Scott has also tried to emulate the "slow-burn then shock 'em" effect of the original. Not great, just satisfying. Fassbender is absolutely fantastic in it though.

I also watched "The Boss Baby", "Moana" and "Ballerina" with the kids, but no-one here wants to hear that, lol.

Boss Baby 2 just announced though

Fassbender is great in Covenant. I enjoyed it but I wish they would have developed the other characters a bit more instead of focusing that much on just him. 6/10.

There was a lot of character "pre-development" with the build-up videos.

"Boss Baby 2" though? Eek. I think "Despicable Me 3" is next on the agenda, though I think the youngest still wants to see the Peppa Pig movie too.

Rewatched "Arrival" during the week too, it made a lot more sense second time around, still slow as fuck though.

ha! I was avoiding trailers and any kind of previews to avoid stupid spoilers that I totally missed out on those! Will watch now!

Just saw The Girl With All The Gifts. Good little zombie film, it's a mix of Last Of Us and Crossed (sans the extreme violence).

New Alien: Covenant trailer is out. Please don't fuck this one up, Mr. Scott.

My request was ignored. :-(
Shame on you, Mr. Scott. I guess I'll pass on any further Alien movie that you might shit into cinemas. Fassbender or not.

Whoa I put off watching Dr. Strange cause I thought it would be dumb but holy shit. Mindbending and awesome film.
