Ok - before we get into this whole looking forward malarkey, I have a confession to make! Prior to last months post, Allie text me to ask me if X-Men was going to be my looking forward film, obviously I said yes so she kindly went with Warcraft!! However, it turns out I have the memory of a sieve, because when it came to writing my post, I did a whole blurb on Captain America!! Even when I looked up the release date and found it was April not May, I still didn't realise what I had done. It took the post going up for Allie to read it and text me saying, why the heck did you write about Captain America instead of X-Men!!! Because i'm a numpty, that's why! So in short, we both potentially wanted to pick X-Men and yet we didn't actually write about it! Can I use it for this one?!
Also, I have to note that we wrote this post well before it was published, so when you guys finally read this Miss Hawkins will be Mrs Adkins - all kinds of happy for my bestest and her beau. Love you lots <3
Hello, summer! Is it just me or does it feel like it should be blockbuster season already? This year they seem to have been spread out throughout the year...which I'm fine with, because I normally only catch about 50% of the big releases in summer anyway! This month is a tricky one to pick, but I think I've made up my mind.

I saw the trailer for The Nice Guys right before seeing Spotlight in early January, and it completely took me by surprise. It looks hilarious! From what I can tell, it's set in the 1970's and follows Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe investigating the death of a porn star.
Ryan Gosling has been away from the big screen far too long for my liking, but his chemistry with Russell Crowe on Oscars night has really got me excited for The Nice Guys! I think it's a case of it either being a huge hit or a real disaster, with the only funny moments being shown in the trailer, but that's always the risk with comedy. I've got my fingers crossed! There was a gun through a window in the trailer which made me laugh hysterically! (it doesn't take much!). Has anyone else seen the trailer for this which is Ryan and Russell in therapy in real life before the film's release, that really made me laugh.
The Nice Guys will be released in UK cinemas on 3rd June, 2016.
Oh my god, how long have I been waiting for this film, ever since I read the book way back when and then I reignited my love for JoJo Moyes this Spring reading the the sequel. Now it's finally here.....
Based on the book by JoJo Moyes, Me before you is about Louisa Clark (Emilia Clarke) who takes a job looking after quadriplegic, William Traynor who having lead an adventurous lifestyle before his accident s struggling to come to terms with his new life.
I love Emillia Clarke and I love Sam Claflin so what is not to love....

My mom and sister really enjoyed The Nice Guys, but I didn't get a chance to see it. They said it was really funny. Me Before You has me hooked because of the cast (and the costumes! Hope you guys like both movies! :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't had chance to see The Nice Guys, Allie is currently living it up in Hollywood so she may have visited a cinema over there :-)
DeleteI have seen Me before you, i couldn't wait any longer, I had to see it on opening night - review to follow shortly.

I saw the Nice Guys yesterday and really loved it. I'll see Me Before You as well. I didn't care for the book, but there were parts of it I adored. I'd like to see Lou get her bumblebee tights on screen.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVED the book, i couldn't' put it down. The movie is great, not to the standard of the book but what film ever lives up to its book counterpart?

Matt enjoyed The Nice Guys a lot, and it's a nice, refreshing break from super heroes movies, that's for sure. I'm not convinced about the second - you know how I feel about romantic movies! ;)
ReplyDeleteHa! I'm a sucker for them, as you well know so I couldn't resist seeing it on opening weekend!! Hopefully I'll get the chance to see The Nice Guys as well but with my cinema buddy flouncing around the US its proving to be difficult.
