Along_the_Wire I don’t see any nuance or depth in any of the original films either. That’s a laughable expectation from Star Wars.
Exactly, the original 3 simply trade on nostalgia. They aren’t very good.
mono-stereo if you don’t rate the first three, why waste your time on the rest which really do trade on nostalgia. Let’s bring back Chewie, Han, original storm troopers, millennium falcon and a CGI Leia. No imagination at all
Mad_Cyril Daisy Ridley’s character provides a little bit of a role model figure for young girls and all that. For that alone is a refreshing change.

Yup, agreed. She’s a decent actor, far better at playing the lead role than either of her predecessors.
alistair Because I enjoyed the last three at the cinema, I thought I’d revisit the others just to double check they weren’t all as bad as I remembered.
mono-stereo The prequels are dismal.
watched free solo on friday and i’ve never had my feet sweat so much watching tv. no idea how anyone is insane enough to do that, but what an accomplishment.
303abuser I’ve watched a few times and i still keep thinking he’s going to fall off on a certain part.
303abuser amazing documentary, the bloke is a true nutter, but fair play to him. Dawn Wall is decent too
It’s good, but he got on my tits a bit - the whole my mom didn’t hug me schtick. Get to fuck
he’s clearly got some issues, i think you’d have to in order to do that. you really get the sense that he didn’t care if he fell.
303abuser the sad thing is, neither did I
Along_the_Wire 🤣 cold as ice.
Along_the_Wire lol. So true. His doris was a twat n all
Millsy i really didn’t like her. no concept of what he was trying to do and how she was putting his life at risk. she had that “i’ll be the one to change him” attitude.
Well they’re now married and she’s turned climber, so it seems he changed her.
Homegrove that’s funny, hope it works out for them. wonder if he compromised and is using safety gear now.
Along_the_Wire watched this with the Boy this afternoon, great Sunday afternoon film.
Anybody seen Wake In Fright? If us is the 1971 version the one to watch or is there a newer remake?
Wasn’t aware there was a remake, the original was thought to be lost but was discovered and remastered….it’s really good.
RichM Dawn wall is good. Same mountain, fixed ropes & two people. No where near as risky.
RichM yeah i liked that one too. maybe once this covid thing is under control i’ll attempt some indoor climbing and see what it’s like. not built for it, but seems like i’d get injured less often than playing soccer.
