Anyone else ridiculously excited about this? I'm avoiding all reviews and spoilers but the first few reactions seem to be super positive. We have tickets booked for the Friday night 🥳

Niftythrifter · 30/04/2023 17:01

Booked for next week too! I’m hoping the soundtrack is as good on this one as the last two films!

Male101 · 02/05/2023 12:43

I want to be excited, and it is booked for thursday. But given that post end game alot of the marvel films and series have been very disappointing I'm not really looking forward to it.

I'm hoping going in with such low expectations that the film will actually seem decent .

Niftythrifter · 02/05/2023 20:47

@Male101 I totally agree! Hopefully this will turn the tide as the output since hasn’t been all that great with the exception of Captain Marvel which I really liked!

Captain marvel was good. But pretty sure it was pre end game.

Shang-chi
Spiderman no way home
Doctor strange 2
Antman and the wasp quantum mania

Were good also

All the others were sub par

I can’t wait!!! Though I have to wait for it to come out on DisneyPlus!! Still, I’m excited

Niftythrifter · 03/05/2023 22:35

I’ve just come from seeing it! I am pleased to say that unlike the latest Marvel films like Ant Man and Thor it’s actually fantastic. It’s got heart, humour, storyline and character development! I won’t spoil it for people but I will say the music is great too and includes some Radiohead!

Niftythrifter · 03/05/2023 22:36

I liked the five rings film too @Male101. I’d like to rewatch that!

You mean 10 rings ? As in shang-chi legend of the 10 rings

Going to see this later I can’t wait. 😁

I thought they were all fairly crap to be honest. I'm surprised Black Panther:Wakana Forever didn't make your list, that's the only recent Marvel film that I'd actually watch a second time.

Forgot about that one . Black panther 2 was better the some, better than the 1st one. I feel it's over praised because one of the actors died .

Anyway just got back. Another film I would add to the good pile.

I haven’t watched the first 2. They aren’t the kind of film I normally enjoy but I had to go and see it today with someone I work for. I was expecting to hate it but I will eat my words. I loved it and the soundtrack was great too. I’ll have to watch the other two now.

The 1st one is the best one

Niftythrifter · 04/05/2023 19:21

@Male101 yes 10 rings

Kingpin90 · 04/05/2023 21:23

I thought was amazing. Two end credit screens.
I will admit to crying.

HowdoIgetbacktothe80s · 04/05/2023 21:29

Male101, thanks, I’ll track them both down this weekend and have a binge.
Kingpin90 I’m glad I’m not the only one, I cried my eyes out!

Kingpin90 · 04/05/2023 22:11

Yes, sound track was great, I wanted to sing along to Beastie Boys. 😆 (I didn’t)
My DD said I was embarrassing. It packed an emotional punch. 🥲😭.

OneFrenchEgg · 04/05/2023 22:30

Going tomorrow , so excited! Hated them all since End Game (but also stopped Star Wars after The Last Jedi - I must have a 'done' moment with franchises).

VWHoliday · 05/05/2023 09:43

Watched it last night and loved it.

MadCatLady27 · 05/05/2023 17:25

OH wants to see it, but I've seen a warning the animal cruelty, especially a rabbit, is really graphic?

I used to have pet bunnies and so I'm not sure I'll be able to watch it? I know its CGI and I'll be ok if bunny ends up with a happy ending but if not I may have to pass

I'm not really into the franchise but would have gone with him to watch

You don't see anything happen to the rabbit. It's already happened.

It's a bit like the toys In sids room in toy story. The rabbit (and other animals ) have been "moddified"

Saw it tonight, loved it! Laughed and cried. Just brilliant

So I'm so sorry but I just watched it and hated it. Sorry! Overly sentimental, fight scenes, far too long, did I say overly sentimental? Not funny enough. Glad I got discounted tickets 😄 loved all the others.
