Film - the most recent you have seen?

I thought there was already a thread on this subject but for the life of me cannot find it, so here goes.
Last night my son and I went to see Iron Man 3. And I thoroughly enjoyed it, plenty of action, witty humorous, enough gadgetry to satisfy everyone, and of course the luscious Robert Downey Jnr. to boot. Cannot wait for the new Thor, and the new Wolverine.

Do you get the feeling I am a fan of the MARVEL films

Yes Des - very obvious... haven't been to the cinema for years, waiting to see 'The War Horse' and 'The Artist' on DVD....

It must be 30 years since we went to the cinema, and I think it was to see one of the Dirty Harry films with Clint Eastwood. We do like films but tend to wait for them to arrive on the television at Christmas time....

Re: Film - the most recent you have seen?

I went to the cinema a couple of weeks ago on a wet day in Alor Setar (in Malaysia). For the princely sum of RM8 ($2.50 - half for Pounds) I saw GI Joe in 3D. With the added benefit of sub titles in Bahasa and Chinese

I haven't been to the cinema for over 20 years and as others have mentioned wait for it to come out on DVD (or these days just download it). It was an experience I wouldn't have missed but it did teach me a few things:

  1. 3D is not that much better than it was in the days of red and green specs, it is just coloured now.
  2. I will not be spending any money on a 3D TV.
  3. It will probably be another 20 years before I go to the movies again (when I am 86 ).

Same here Barry, in fact I can't even remember the last time I was in a cinema My brother keeps telling me how much they have changed but he also tells me what it costs now and I just can't see it's worth all the hassle of parking, dressin up (At least to look decent) breathing all the nasties of people in front, behind, coughing etc., and then paying to see something which is all special effects and badly recorded sound. Wait for it to come on TCM for free is my answer.

Sorry just my rant, anyway OH wouldn't leave the dogs alone for a whole evening, and right now there are no cinemas close enough to consiider going to anyway

Re: Film - the most recent you have seen?

There is a cinema near to where I live and we use it fairly often, (special days for pensioners at reduced rates) I've seen three 2013 films so far this year, 'Identity Thief', a good laugh, 'Hansel and Gretel', the two siblings have grown up and go chasing witches, enjoyed it. The last one was disappointing to me anyway, 'Jack the Giant Slayer', a bit too corny for my liking.

Re: Film - the most recent you have seen?

Last film I saw at the cinema was "The Hobbit" I just recently noticed that it is now out on DVD so if I had waited just a few weeks ........ Went out and bought the video anyway because I have the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, but I am sure there must be more "Hobbit" to come as the film seemed to finish in mid air.
