And just to prove how perverse audiences are:  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c74ke77v7rvo

'Disney's live-action version of the classic fairy tale Snow White has topped the North American box office chart despite a slew of underwhelming reviews.

The movie has taken an estimated $87.3m (£67.5m) globally during its opening weekend, according to Box Office Mojo, external. Almost half of that figure came from North America.'


The only other new film we had was Alto Knights and that was even more deserted than Snow White. Come to think of it the only film we have that seems to be doing well at the moment is Mickey 17.  rubschin:

Really looking forward to this live show. Steve Coogan in a stage version of Dr Strangelove.  cloud9:

Lots of mixed reviews online … rubschin:

It gets the Grumpy seal of approval. There are some changes but that was to be expected when moving it from film to stage but overall very well done and highly entertaining. Coogan nailed all 4 roles and you can tell he was having fun playing Strangelove. Thumbs:

Hmm I was dubious when they said the film would be set mostly in this world but Tron Ares may be worth a watch after all.  rubschin:

BM you and Misty like musicals...  eveilgrin:

 noooo:

Went into the screen early by mistake and ended up catching the last couple of songs. Dear God, if you thought the trailer was bad it's nothing on the actual show but the worst thing was that is was like a car crash, no matter how much you want to turn away you keep watching to see how bad it's going to get. I still can't believe that people paid to see this shite on the West End.  noooo:

Barkeep I'll have a pint of your finest homebrewed brain bleach please.  eeek:

It's a stage show but something tells me we'll end up getting a live broadcast of a performance. Wire work and shooting arrows while on stage, I'm sure that nothing could possibly go wrong...  rubschin:
