For God's sake, I told you when it came out that there was nothing playing Shin Godzilla remotely near me, cool your jets.

I actually looked the other day and it seemed as if the home release hadn't come out yet, so no.
I don't know that they're even doing a home release are they? At least, not on disk.

Oh, next week I guess.
I think that's just the JP ver with no subs, wiki says august?
I didn't like Covenant that much. Felt too much like some bizarre combination of Alien, Aliens, and Prometheus. Taken by themselves, it wasn't too bad, but they didn't mix well.
Also, Fassbender goofed up with the voices.
Just watched Guy Ritchie's "King Arthur". Apart from the fact that it barely had anything to do with the Arthurian mythos - which I already expected, so not really a big deal -, it was surprisingly enjoyable. A bit too long, but the video game-style action scenes compensated for it. Not really a good movie, but an enjoyable one.
What were your thoughts on the chase scene after the assassination attempt?

FF XIV: Walked to the End
Started Legend of the Galactic Heroes (14/07/23), pray for me.
The one in the streets of Londinium? Mostly, that it could have been shortened. Other than that: "Wow, isn't it convenient that all these gladiators are suddenly shown to be willing to lay down their lives fighting Vortigern and/or in defense of Arthur? Sure would have been better if they had been established as being aggressively anti-Vortigern a lot earlier!"
The new Arthur movie just makes me wish for one based off Nasu's take on Arthurian myth. You could even still have Vortigern as a villain!
So, over the past few days I've been marathoning the "Ip Man Trilogy". They are certainly a great bunch of martial arts flicks and I would definitely recommend them to just about anybody...except historians as they take massive liberties with the history of Ip Man.
The basic premise of the trilogy is that a humble master of Wing Chun named Ip Man faces opposition from foreigners each time (Japanese invasion of China, British Imperialists and then ruthless American property developers) and he has to protect his home and his people. Lots of great action scenes and tight choreography in all three films. Mike Tyson was even in the third film! Sadly he was a bit underused, but his fight scenes were great!
But if I had to rank the films... I'd probably go: 2 > 3 > 1.
"Here's a bangin lil' tune about takin' on The Man!"

Quite like the Ip Man films. Got pointed in their direction a few years back by a friend who's a wing chun instructor.
Action-wise, stylistically, I sort of prefer the first two just for showing a nice variety of different kung fu styles (though the second one loses a few points for how the table fight finished...), even if the choreography was a bit stronger in the second and third ones.
Story wise, I'd probably rank it about the same as you did, though the second and third ones do feel a little ridiculous sometimes in how he ends up in situations that turn into a fight. Nevermind any historical accuracy :P.
One must know the path one runs even if the ground underfoot is not as one chooses
My dad's sensei once got in a freaking kung-fu battle over an uncooked chicken at a restaurant. Never underestimate what people are willing to fight over...
Watched the new Pirates movie.
Better than 3, 4 and arguarbly 2.
1 is still the best one of the bunch
I'm happy to say they continued some of the loved Pirates traditions like fun Spooky Pirates design, Barbossa carrying the movie, and the romantic duo inability to act to save their lives.
Oh? What little I've heard has been that it's a stale sequel.
for real?
i always like pirate caribbean movies if only because of Johnny Depp, but if its second only to th 1st, i might have something good this weekend
