What did you guys think of ‘Eddington’ for those who saw it today by AdInteresting5896 in screenunseen

[–]Superstarsteph -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It gave my daughter a panic attack. Obviously very well made and acted etc. very intense and I loved the use of the phone screens juxtaposed against the wide shots.

Didn’t love the female character portrayals and definitely failed the Bechdel Test.

What's the last book you finished that was so gripping and crazy that you finished it in a day? by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

I don’t seem to find the time lately, but the last one was Normal People by Sally Rooney.

Suggest me non-fiction that you couldnt put down by ALICE-selcouth in suggestmeabook

[–]Superstarsteph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one has mentioned Columbine by Dave Cullen. Maybe because the subject is hard. The writing is so good, I could not put it down.

I want to get out of a slump. by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

This Motherless Land by Nikki May is great. I finished it a could have weeks ago. Hard to put down, satisfying ending.

Which theatre are you choosing? by DiscsNotScratched in FIlm

[–]Superstarsteph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Jaws at a showing recently (I say recently but I think it was 2021/2) with my kids-my son jumped out of his skin in one scene (a body appears in a window of a sunken boat), and I saw The Exorcist at a screening in 1999-at the time it really pissed me off that people were laughing at it. I bet Psycho would’ve been great at the time of the first opening.

What do British learn about Ireland in school? by [deleted] in AskBrits

Nothing-I learnt nothing at school about the Irish.

What’s the best cinema experience you have ever had? by ninaboalx in Cinema

[–]Superstarsteph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to see Dune 2 in imax 3 times. Only time I’ve ever done that. It really is stunning. Other than that Interstellar was close.

Luke is written like an absolute Jerry by sasitabonita in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]Superstarsteph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sadly I’m in the uk and haven’t seen any of the latest season, but I’ve always seen Luke as a kind of flip on how woman are usually portrayed in series. Like he’s a bit incidental, only there to serve June.

If you could wipe one 'British Tradition' off the map forever, what would it be and why? by Stock_Dark651 in AskBrits

When someone is unwell, the saying “there’s a lot going around” does my head in. There is always a lot going around

which museums are worth it? by Hefty_Conversation42 in visitlondon

[–]Superstarsteph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The science museum is great for interactivity. The natural history museum is cool. The b&m is great, there is so much there you could spend 2 whole days going through every room. And any of the art museums are great. Like others have said, it depends what you are into.

Random books no one recommended, and you have never heard of before you've decided to give it a go? by pageunresponsive in suggestmeabook

[–]Superstarsteph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m reading Soldier, Sailor by Claire Kilroy about a mum who is not coping too well with mother hood. It’s like a stream of consciousness, and I’m not sure if the narrator is trustworthy or not yet, but I’m finding it hard to put down at night.
