The other, Godzilla minus one is meant to be much better, it won a special effects Oscar on a ridiculously low budget I believe.

Yeah, we went to watch G -1 and it was great.

I think they are trying to get the Minus 1 Team onboard for the next Godzilla MonsterVerse movie.

Minus 1 is much more accomplished movie but as John_P says above, GxK is just fun.

Yeah Minus One is great, I actually thought the first bit of VFX we see in the movie was quite janky but after that it was excellent. It was a good story too, nothing revolutionary but the characters actually had some depth and flaws, the kind of story that makes you realise just how many films today are quite soulless by comparison.

Not sure I like the team being involved in the "MonsterVerse" stuff, that feels more like killing the competition than anything.

By all accounts Adam Wingard wants the sequel to be more a reverse of GxK were the main character is Godzilla. So speaking and working with the -1 people on ideas regarding that would be no bad idea. Especially when the WB films have him as a protector of humanity, whilst Toho would likely have any sequels to -1 having him once again be an antagonist.

Watched 'Kursk: The Last Mission (2018)'  last night.

Great movie.  Still thinking about it today.

Those poor sailors.  Although reading in detail about the disaster today, I don't think the crew could realistically have been saved, even without the Russians fucking up so badly in their rescue attempts and stubbornness to accept help from Europe and the US.

Really want to get a copy on 4K disc now but it is only available as a Japanese release without subtitles, that might be too hardcore even for me!

Love live physical media!

They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

The Fall Guy - really good fun.

Lost a bit of momentum in the middle, but an all-rounder enjoyable action romp.

Love Lies Bleeding is worth a watch. Storyline was a bit silly but the performances were very strong. Kristen Stewart is obviously a scene stealer but I also totally bought into the bodybuilder character and the ditzy admirer.

Yes, it was quite fun. Not amazing but a nice way to spend a wet bank holiday Monday
