I think that had to do with star power more than anything else. At the time Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz and even to some extent Drew Barrymore were all fairly big names that would draw a crowd.

Yeah, I (and I think most people) can't stand Kristin Stewart and I have no clue who the other two are.

Yes, very true. Is that star power influencing the results of this IMDB poll? https://www.imdb.com/poll/VZE5FdSRL4Y/

With Christina Hendricks as Bosley. Yeah, I'd see that movie.

The Lighthouse (2019) - Two lighthouse keepers try to maintain their sanity while living on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.
I saw this without much knowledge about it beforehand except that I heard it got a lot of buzz and it was a bit weird so I had no idea what kind of surprise I was in for. I knew after the first 15 minutes that I'd love it purely based on how it looks, but the story is simultaneously creepy and funny and then it gets completely mental towards the end. I predict many more viewings when it's released on disc early next year. 10/10

Iron Man 3 6/10
Still the worst movie in the MCU catalogue, Shane Black is just so annoying when it comes to sci fi, he should just stick to buddy cop movies coz his movies have great banter but nothing much else.

What can I say? I really like it.
The Dark Knight is still # 1 for me though. I have a Ledger Joker tattoo on my leg to prove it.

The Lighthouse and Parasite are the 2 movies at the top of my want to see list right now.
Seeing how you and I have a lot of the same taste in movies, I’m looking forward to it even more so now.

Stan & Ollie - 8/10. Really touching, warm story of the last days of Laurel & Hardy. Beautifully acted. Very glad I saw this one.
