Recently watched ''Yamato" about the titular Japanese battleship. Solid movie, one of the few I've been able to find on the war from an IJN perspective.

Yesterday I saw an old classic. Have seen this movie several times by now.

Dr Strangelov.
I think it's one of the best Anti-war movies there is.

Star Wars, the Last Jedi: (light spoilers)

2/5 stars. Considered asking for my money back.

Some of the prequels were better. They definitely had a better story line. This one was no more than a rehash of the most popular elements of Jedi and Empire.

When will the Empire (et al) figure out how to make space ships without giant weak points in them? Rogue One explained that with the death star, cool. But int his one, one little fighter clears off all the AA guns on the deck of the ship, and then one slow as heck bomber is able to drop a few bombs onto a single point and shatter the ship.

Too many light gags that really took me out of the story. The demonic flying penguins were cute, but I started calling the one JarJar.

Way to many plot holes. Things that wouldn't happen, or couldn't happen, were happening too often.

If you haven't seen it yet, wait. Wait for netflix or a dvd rental at worst.

I hate them, but damn I do love those films at the same time. As a car guy, its mandatory that i've at least seen them once.

Just seen number eight and you're right: ridiculous and fantastic at the same time; old fashioned tough-guy bonding with the most ludicrous stunts ever... and all these bald guys kicking ass big time

No.8 must be one of the best action movies I've ever watched...
it's a pity they couldn't get Arnie and Sly in there too

Oh come off it will you, I knew all that was possible.

Now give me the nuts and bolts and sod the spoilers.

I won't be asking for money back, but I am not sure I liked it as a Star Wars film. The split plot in the movie is what killed it.

Driving fast causes hair loss.

8 bugged me because an Akula suddenly grew vertical launch tubes.
