    the sword and the stone is awesome and is the only movie I can think of that actually has a true Wizard Battle in the classical sense that I can think of.

    How do people feel about both Rescuers and Oliver and Company

    I really like Rescuers and Rescuers Down Under, but not really Oliver and Company, though Billy Joel at least makes it enjoyable.

    Rescuers Down Under is one of the rare examples (especially from Disney) of a sequel that is truly better than the original.

    Oliver and Company is worth it for "Why Should I Worry?"

    There's so many classic Disney movies I have not seen

    I didn't see Snow White until like...three, four years ago?

    Just saw Alice in Wonderland and Dumbo in the last year

    Still never seen Pinocchio, The Jungle Book, Bambi, Cinderella, Lady and the Tramp, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmatians, Robin Hood, The Sword in the Stone

    Basically I'm good from The Little Mermaid on, anything before that, likely not

    No Black Cauldron on the list? Yes, its the movie that killed Disney's animation line until the Little Mermaid, but I really liked it. That may be due to my first PC computer game being the Sierra Black Cauldron game (along with original King's Quest), and a fondness for the Lloyd Alexander books, I'll admit.

    I watched my VHS of Bedknobs and Broomsticks so many times it started doing that thing where it went all warped and weird at the beginning and end. That football match used to work kid Smof into a frenzy of delight.

    Also because it is THE BEST:

    If you enjoy Tom Cruise you will like it.

    I thought it was an enjoyable action-mystery, if a bit forgettable afterward.

    I will say though, regarding Jack Reacher, that I really liked the fight choreography.

    Seeing Tom Cruise basically go into detective mode from the Batman: Arkham games was great.

    That Maleficent movie seems pretty bad, but I am intrigued by the prospect of seeing some Sleeping Beauty imagery with modern effects.

    @UnbreakableVow, if you ever get the chance you should check out Wizards.

    It is an poor-to-okay animated film which suffered huge production/financial issues.

    But its ending is so shockingly amazing it is all worth it.

    Is Wizards the one where it ends with
    the hero just pulling a gun and shooting the bad guy dead

    Yes.
    He pulls a pistol right before the huge wizard duel they have been pumping up for the whole movie.

    And he shoots the evil necromancer through the heart.

    At least he had his pivotal line

    Where he asks Jack Reacher who has two thumbs and not much else

    and he answers that he is such a man

    I'm watching the Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec because I remember thinking the trailer was really neat
    It's an entertaining little film, helped out by the fact that I immediately fell in love with the lead actress

    It's really really good, @natek‌

    Trying to describe it is awkward because what makes it so good is how uncomfortable it is to watch. Between the lack of morals, the perverse relationship(s), the many unhappy endings for likeable characters.. but it's really fucking good.

    It was way ahead of its time, too.

    Once I finish up the US version I shall watch it, then. I read a bit about it and it seems within one season it gets the job done while the Netflix version took its time. I can only assume one huge event is the same but a 20 year old series should still bring up some suspenseful plot points.

    I can't compare it to the US show because I haven't watched it yet, but yeah it's good.

    It's also worth noting that there are actually three series (seasons), they just are named differently. Series two is "To Play the King" and series three is "The Final Cut".

    karl urban was good as dredd and I loved the movie but,

    I could have seen like another 50 people under the helmet doing just as well, hell even the guy playing lex might've been a good dredd.

    he was good but didn't bring anything particularly special to it that someone else couldn't have done I don't think.

    He wasn't really the protagonist though, so that's fine.

    Anderson doesn't have her name in the title, but the movie's really about her.

    That's why she never has her helmet on, and Dredd never takes his off.

    Because one of them is a more fleshed-out character that we're supposed to sympathize with, and one is an archetype that's there to be the badass veteran action hero.
