More Cersei
Sansa at the Eyrie
Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson as the Mountain
Fly through the Moon Door
I've got to say that I really enjoyed this season, mainly in part due to Pedro Pascal playing Oberyn Martell. He stole every scene he was in, even ones with Cersei, who usually draws my eye wherever she's sauntering about. And, though I knew it was coming, the squish was all together horrifying and sad.
Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson did a great job as Gregor Clegane, a mountain among men.
Though not quite following the book, I had a great time with the events at the Eyrie and loved watching Sansa grow farther away from the naive little girl she used to be.
There are a great many things that happened in this season, good and bad, but these actors/events stood out to me the most at the time of writing this.

I read somewhere that this is the first time that Denzel Washington has ever starred in a sequel to one of his earlier films.
The question I have is: why this one?
It's not that good, really, never really holding my attention (despite the presence of Pedro Pascal); full of clichés and with some rathe brutal action scenes.
Still, it is filmed well and Denzel, as always, gives a stellar performance. It's just a pity it's dull dull dull.

Ah, right, so that's the real reason for the Great Wall of China.
It's to keep out those pesky Tao Tei monsters that attack every 60 years or so.
Staring Matt Damon, this is a somewhat so-so film that, despite an intriguing premise and some solid visuals (the colour-coded Chinese army), just never really connects at all. Personally, I don't think it helps that the CGI is also somewhat dodgy, while Mr Damon seems to be putting on some sort of weird Irish accent and has little to no spark with either a pre-Mandalorian Pedro Pascal or with Willem Dafoe.

This was a movie that, while I had no real plans to see it in the cinema myself, if somebody had asked me to go along with them I probably would have said "aye, why not?" to.
In this, Nic Cage plays a fictionalised version of himself who is thinking of giving up acting and then accepts a 1 million dollar pay-day from a superfan (the internets current BFF Pedro Pascal) to come and visit him for his birthday celebrations, unaware that the FBI believe that superfan to be a drug kingpin and with the FBI then suborning Cage to spy on said fan.
The rest of the film then plays out as a sort of buddy comedy, with Cage and Pascal (not all as he seems) then finding themselves caught up in various, sometimes ridiculous, situations and as they start using their experiences more and more towards the plot of a film that Gutierrez has dreamed up for Cage to star in.
So, yeah, better than I was expecting and it did even make me laugh once or twice!

Want to start by saying there will be spoilers here in my review for those who haven't seen the film. Okay what can I say was it worth the wait yes three lockdowns cinemas closing and everything else there was a point where I didn't think I was going to see the movie is it as good as the original yes coulda been shorter than 2 and half hours but that's my only gripe overall excellent performances from the cast especially kristen Wigg who almost steals it from gal gadot would I watch again yes just wished I had seen it on the big screen in IMAX instead on Amazon prime

Wonder woman 84 has sequeitis basically the first one was great we have to pump the other one fast. Patti Jenkins (hopefully I spelled it right) just was like I know what I'm doing also getting limited production with covid didn't help. I felt like steve would just come back not in someone else body would work because they did dangerous stuff and they didn't think twice or acknowledge that he really shouldn't do that. Also not rally acknowledge it I didn't think he was inhabiting another body till the end also kristen wiig's character was such a change to evil. It didn't feel like a villain for Diana, also it seems she does that character slot overall great character growth on Diana. Cheetah look could be better. It's ok
