Trainspotting 2

[Snake Plissken]

That figures. I haven't gotten around to seeing it yet. It got okay reviews.

Looking at the box office.....absolutely no one watched this.

I think it did OK in the UK; £10,638,197 after 2 weeks (the guardianhttps://www.theguardian.com/film/fi...office-t2-trainspotting-sing-la-la-land-split), might have been a lot less globally but I dinnae ken pal

I think a lot of the media portrayed it as glorifying recreational drug use which might have put off some viewers, such as BBC news.

Just saw this tonight. I enjoyed it, good film. I probably should have watched the first one again actually because I haven't seen it in years and could have done with reminding myself of the storyline and the character relationships.

Thought you might appreciate how one of our downtown theaters has it listed on the marquee:

I approve. I did think it was peculiar to market this film as 'T2'.

Just finished watching it. Disappointed frankly. It was a nice revisit to the characters, but something was missing in it for me. Although there's some powerful scenes in it where there isn't even talking in it.

It felt very lifeless didn't it? Some of the editing was "edgy" or whatever but it didn't have even an iota of the kinetic excitement the original did. That was a truly special movie though. Lightning can't be captured in a bottle twice.

Needed more boobs too.

It's a shame I've heard a lot of people say they felt it wasn't as special as the first.
Maybe if Ian McGregor hadn't fallen out with the director Danny Boyle over not being given the star role as Richard in "The Beach" (Dicaprio got it) they could have made this sequel +15 years ago!
I think they left it too long to kiss and make up and continue with an exciting story. Well maybe they could have had a more fun in the film regardless.

Maybe in a thousand years guys and girls will make a glorious come back? [emoji38]

Despite not being as old as the characters, the updated "choose life" monologue by Rents hit me hard. Great film, can't wait to get it on BD.

Loved it. More than the first. It hit home on a lot of points for me. Great to see Ewan still knocking them out.
