The last film you watched....

[Ghostmojo]

Passed a reasonably entertaining 90 minutes watching The Last Legion on Netflix, which has fun and games with very late Roman and early British history. Somehow they managed to talk Ben Kingsley into appearing in this nonsense which sees the path taken by the boy Emperor Romulus. I'll say one thing for these ventures - there is a sizable clique of actors who appear in all these things. I noticed many familiar faces from Rome, Spartacus and other recent TV and made for DVD film offerings in this quasi-fantasy drivel :lol:

Also watched a very predictable and dull film called 51 (as in Area ...) with Bruce Boxleitner who presumably needs the cash.

More fun was watching the first X-Files film again. I do love The X-Files and as myself and my son (also an X-phile) have been working our way through the entire series (again) obviously between seasons 5 & 6 you have to watch the film Fight The Future (as it was dubbed). This is a great film and better than the second movie outing in 2008. Roll on the third one ...

Oh yes - finally got around to seeing John Carter (in 3D) and must say it was far better than I had feared, although the lead actor has as much charisma as a wet blanket. The girl playing Dejah Thoris was far more convincing (and yummy). But - and this being Disney who usually don't do clever or risky - why on earth (or Mars) wasn't it called John Carter of Mars? :?
