Yknow I think mars attacks might have become my favourite film ever, and it’s all thanks to film club cos I’d never have watched it cos I thought I’d already seen it.

Hi @filmclubbers

There’s no way I remembered everyone who should be in that, but anyone should be able to join (and leave!) as they see fit

Weird film, this one. Enjoyed watching it with my film club posse though, obviously.

total dud for me.

didn’t like rango as a character. the story was far too ill-defined. very bizarrely pitched film. which all would have all been totally fine but it wasn’t even funny. :frowning:

All of this really. Though I mark it up a bit more for the quality of the animation.

Much denser and less kiddish than I was expecting, great character design and the animation was gorgeous, especially that sequence just before he meets the man with no name. Still too pastichey and too many annoying characters for me to really love it. Could’ve done with fewer wacky characters and more fleshing out of the main ones

Blew my mind that it came out 9 years ago though, don’t think I’ve seen cgi animation that looks much better since

didn’t enjoy it as much as when I first saw it, but 2011 was my first year of film watching so figures that i’ve seen a lot of better stuff since

you hadn’t seen a film until 2011?

I had but basically just Disney, family stuff like yer Hooks, Jurassic Parks, Space Jam etc, and the thick end of the teenage film wedge- Pulp Fiction,Amelie, Eternal Sunshine and such. Was never a film guy, even as a kid.

Decided in 2011 to start catching up and ended up watching 1000 films in the next three years. All or nothing with me like.

Also managed to make a list of every film I’d ever seen up to that point, and obviously have had a spreadsheet for them since, so I’m quite confident that I know exactly how many films I’ve seen in my life.

Just looked it up. I have seen 2,040 films. 2,888 if you include shorts, mini series and documentary series.

Mad shit
