    I read the first chapter of the first potter book to my son when he was small, and told him he’d have to wait for the film to find out what happens it was so painful. Still superior to Dan Brown, who is illiterate.

    The Laurel and Hardy one looks good. The wife also wants to see The Favourite (as it’s directed by the bloke who did Lobster it has a chance of being seriously weird, so I’m up for that) and Mary Queen of Scots (though the fact that the excellent Irish actress who plays her uses a Scottish accent when she undoubtedly spoke with a French one leads me to think it won’t be very historically accurate). She also wants to see Bohemian Rhapsody, I’ve told her I’ll wait for her in the boozer.

    Bohemian Rhapsody is not as bad as I was expecting
    But just in case find a cinema that sells beer

    My 28 year-old daughter and her boyfriend loved Bohemian Rhapsody, which greatly surprised me. I don't fancy it at all.

    Most advert breaks have at least 3 Queen songs behind the products, and I didn’t like them much in the first place. Don’t need any more.

    With competition from Netflix and other streaming services, legal and illegal, cinemas are having to up their game in a variety of ways to get the punters in. My local, within walking distance, has every showing of every film at £4.99. In Stratford on Avon the cinema has been remodelled so the seating area is more like a living room with comfy sofas and armchairs and you can have a meal while watching the fillum. Which I don’t like much, I have no need to have the aroma of other people’s food wafting around while I watch a movie.

    It's the difference of whether you want to just watch a film or something a bit more, I see quite a few movies and series on Netflix which works out a bargain if you just want to stay at home. Today it'll be the film which includes a sort of 'room service' followed by a visit to one of the local resturants and a few drinks. There's something for everyone at whatever price you want to pay...

    It's also inaccurate in that there is a scene between the cousins, Mary and Elizabeth. In fact, they never met

    Cast Away - Felt like you were watching it in real time.

    The Big Cahuna - Kevin Spacey and Danny De Vito ****ing each other off for 90 minutes, all taking place in a hotel room.

    The Men Who Stare at Goates - Horrible, total waste of time

    After one 'Vue' experience, I emailed them to state that I would be very happy to pay a fiver more to sit in a cinema that was adults only and in which food and drink was banned.

    I think it's got to the point that this thread's OP has run its cause and should be merged into the review thread. I'll do so in the morning in case anyone has any objections.
