I realized a few years ago that I just don't enjoy the experience of going out to a movie anymore. Cost aside, the seats are less comfortable than my sofa at home, I have no control over my environment, I have to deal with crowds and lines, noisy children, people messing with their mobile phones and all manner of other stuff. I finally sold off some movie gift cards I had accumulated over the years when I realized I hadn't gone out to a movie since 2015. Then there is the fact that it's almost impossible to find anything I want to go see anymore. It's all a mindless sea of reboots, remakes and franchise sequels. I'll always have a soft spot for the original Star Wars movie, then the two early sequels I consider ok but not great. The more modern prequels have been mediocre to awful and it's only going downhill as Disney milks it for everything they can. I can't quite put a finger on why but there is something about Disney movies I just don't like and never really have. Even when I was a kid I was not really into Disney. |

fwiw if anyone missed out on Starship Troopers, it's well worth a watch and still holds up today, better than a lot of todays sci-fi ordeals The first 'Starship Troopers' and 'Starship Troopers 3: Marauder' are the ones to go for, and buckle up! 8) 'Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation' is ok and watchable, but the original main cast/actors aren't in it, and TBH doesn't pump as well for me in comparison.. EMMV Then there's the Riddick/Pitch Black movies starring Vin Diesel, nothing shabby about those, kickass all the way :popcorn: Tom Cruise has some goodies too: Oblivion, Edge Of Tomorrow, Minority Report, all well done :-+ Back on topique: I will watch Rise of Skywalker, to ensure I'm done with this series/franchise/whatever of Star Was, and revisit the original Star Wars trilogy on DVD or Bluray on occasion.. for the real deal :clap: |
