Bale's appearance in The Promise reminds me so much of The Prestige.

"free fire" and "lion" sound bloody awesome.

Wow, most of those look awesome. Definitely interested in Trespass Against Us, Colossal, Brimstone, Birth of the Dragon, and (re)ASSIGNMENT (which I think and hope will get a name change, otherwise I fear it will go DTV). And The Bad Batch. What an unbelievably odd mix of actors. Suki Waterhouse is a fucking babe! The Promise, I will also catch.

Free Fire does sound awesome. But that picture kind of turns me off. And Kill List is a load of wank. Not seen High-Rise.

I'm not familiar with Wheatley at all, I've been wanting to watch High-Rise for some time already.

Thanks. I'll be looking forward to reviews for that. When do they screen Blair Witch? It will be interesting when more reviews come in if the consensus that it's great will remain. I hope so.

Yeah, and that takes forever! And constantly readjusts the page position for about 1-2 minutes while the images load.
