The Lovely BonesI'm really not sure what to make of this one. Part of me absolutely loved it, the first half in particular. The character development was really good in the first half, as were the fantasy elements. I thought Tucci was fantastic in his role, really nailed it. I'm finding it hard to put my finger on why the film didn't blow me away. I felt it maybe dragged a little bit in the middle, or after the intensity of the start it mellowed a bit? Thought the film was full of emotion and had a beautiful score. Really close to being excellent, but it's missing something for sure.

Hmmm I'm very torn between three choices. I absolutely love Jesse Ventura but don't think he quite had the chemistry with Gorilla that Bobby Heenan did so I'll put that pair ahead. Then there's JR and Jerry Lawler, the real soundtrack to my childhood. I think I'll have to choose those guys just because JR is the greatest commentator of all time in my opinion, and on his day 1996-1998 (in particular) Jerry Lawler was an excellent heel colour guy.

Top half of the card looks like a lot of fun. Haven't got much interest in the women's matches, however.

I enjoyed the hell out of both matches. Okada/Omega edges it for me slightly just because of the outcome of the Cena/Styles match. I respect Cena hugely but there was no reason for him to win that match in my opinion.

Really hope LU comes to UK Netflix too. I was such a fan of the first season. Sadly lost track early on in season two but this would be the perfect way to catch up on a great product.

I think Rollins has been booked pretty horribly since he returned but I feel terrible for the guy getting injured again. In a way I hope it keeps him away from the HHH match (at Mania at least).
The guy is a great in ring talent, and I hope he gets the rehabilation he needs, both on his injury and his character.

Still so crazy seeing Tyler Bate as a part of WWE. I saw him wrestle live for the first time 2 and a half years ago when he was barely 17, and then last caught him live in November. What an awesome rise he's had in the past year, but he deserves it. He's an absolutely superb talent.

This sounds horrific. I really dig what Miz has been doing and Cena is Cena, but I don't want to see that in a one on one match let alone with the women involved.

TrainspottingAfter still being on a high after yesterday's viewing of the sequel I really fancied watching this. I've said it before but this is a masterpiece. Just an epic hour and a half of British cinema that evokes all of the emotions, genuinely hard to watch in places and laugh out loud in other. Amazing soundtrack and sublime performances all around from the cast and director.

T2 TrainspottingOh wow. I was really dreading this coming out. Being such a fan of the first film I felt it was best left alone as the masterpiece it is. I had a couple of hours spare today and thought what the heck? I'll check it out. Going in with such low expectations meant I wouldn't be too disappointed. I didn't expect to be blown away, and I really was. This is an outstanding film. I don't want to compare it to the original and say it's as good because it's such a lofty standard that it would be too difficult to achieve. However, this is an excellent film. I was so pleasantly surprised. It's an emotional rollercoaster, with laugh out loud moments to moments where you're holding back the tears. I left so happy that this film was great and I can't wait to watch it again. Just back from it myself and couldn't agree more. Great film. I couldn't stop laughing at the orange lodge scene. Glad you enjoyed it mate. I'm still chuffed to bits today after seeing it. Can't wait to see it again.
