Also, the marketing for John Carter was horrendous. Removing “Mars” from the title? Why? Hell, even renaming it “John Carter and the Princess of Mars” would have been better. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit although I couldn’t quite get behind Taylor Kitsch as an appealing lead. Lynn Collins...

I would prefer if Mars had a few more finished figures before teasing new ones. Regarding gauging interest, surely a simple poll would be easier and cheaper.

You chose wisely😊

Back To The Future 10/10 ******* what a tight, breezy, fun movie. Pure popcorn perfection nearly 40 years on. Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd are perfect together. The whole cast is awesome. Silvestri is magical. Huey rocks. May it never be remade.

Armageddon - 5/10 Making our way through older films on a rewatch with the kids.... Hmmmm.....Not as fun as I remember. Early Bayisms aplenty. Racism. Sexism. Statutory rapism. Kids love Owen Wilson though, kinda the best part but they killed him off! Otherwise, a shouty, ugly color-graded...

Might actually switch to a waist grabber. Those black nut-huggers really stand out against the Devo suit!🤭

Well, finally picked up Doc. PopCultcha had a 20% off sale - it was already reduced so it came to AU$240. Couldn’t pass it up. It’s actually better in hand, although I still think HT was totally lazy with the headsculpt. Anyway, nice to have Marty with Doc now😊

Starman 8/10 Rewatched with the kids. Carpenter’s ET is wonderfully simple and understated. While Jeff Bridges’ performance is unique, Karen Allen is just awesome. Grounding the film with humanity, vulnerability and compassion. 1984 might just be my favourite year for films.

And (in Adam West voice) CAT…Wo..Man!

Man, I need to finish the book ASAP. This month flew and haven’t read as much as I wanted.😩

My interests usually line up with Dan Murrell’s take on things as he’s pretty level headed. Check his review if interested.

My biggest gripe is that this means there’ll be a slew of Hot Toys figures of this crap, pushing back any prime OT stuff (Boushh Leia, Bespin Han etc) even further. I’d like those before I die please.

Here’s how good Isolation is. I stopped playing (the OG film option) after the first attack of the xenomorph. I got too scared🫣

Totally agree. I feel the same about Indy, Henry, Sallah and Marcus riding into the sunset. Thankyou. We’re done now. That was fun. Goodbye!

Also….”Darkness rises” Huh? I thought darkness falls. Am I being too pedantic? I just don’t know anymore. Well, I know I won’t be watching. Weeeeee!

Other figs would be Jake and Elwood Blues, Maxwell Smart, Agent 99 and Chief, Alex Rogan and Grigg from The Last Starfighter (oh, and Catherine Mary Stewart for reasons), Flynn and Tron, OG Battlestar Galactica Cylon, Apollo & Starbuck, Lynda Carter Wonder Woman….so many. A good 1/6 Big Chap...

Would love those Monkey figures! When I was a kid I painted a Kirk 3 3/4” figure to look like Monkey, made his staff out of a q-tip and his cloud out of cotton wool. Good times.

Ok, think I’m gonna pre-order this one.

Nailed it! It shows with projects like this and The Creator, that if the director/producer has a background, or at least a good understanding of VFX, there’s more bang for buck. Good on them for getting the award. There were some amazing effects. It really felt like there was a full scale...

Man, InArt are doing next level stuff! This looks great, but sadly my budget is AUGToys (which still looks very nice).
