Father Christmas, The Snowman then The Snowman and The Snowdog. Follow that with Arthur Christmas. Perfect antidote to last night's festivities. Arthur Christmas is my daughter's favourite Christmas film, I've lost count how many times we've had to watch it. Still a fab film :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Friendly Dalek Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 @Wrong Name So what did you think of the Ghostbusters trailer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrong Name Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 10 minutes ago, The Friendly Dalek said: @Wrong Name So what did you think of the Ghostbusters trailer? I most certainly did not spend the day watching it on repeat blubbering away like a little girl. No sir, not me! I really liked it. It hit the right tone for me. We were told this one would be a bit more serious and dark than previous versions and I like that they're doing that. The trailer was well put together in that it gave you the feel of the movie, without giving too much of the story away (which makes a change for Sony!). There were plenty of nods back to the first movie which really did hit me in the feels and affected me more than I thought it would. Most of my Ghostbusters fan friends loved it too but I have heard a few people complaining (as they do with every movie). Some are asking why it's not the original GB team? We were told it wasn't. As much as we love them, watching a bunch of Grandads on their Zimmer frames busting ghosts won't carry a movie! Some say it's too much like Stranger Things? Well, Finn Wolfhard is in it, so I see that connection, but to be fair, Ghostbusters is one of the franchises that influenced ST, so of course they will seem similar!! I can't wait for it to come out so we can see what the film actually is, as trailers have been known to give the wrong impression of films from time to time, but everything I've seen about this one feels like it's a good direction to be heading and will hopefully give the franchise new legs to continue forward for a while yet. Unlike that other... thing. What did other people think? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I look forward to a darker tone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see why people are talking about the Stranger Things aspect, but Ghostbusters came first and is better so I don’t know why people are moaning 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was talking about it earlier with one of the guys from Ghostbusters Ireland, been good friends with him for years, and he's said the same positive things. It's hitting the right beats, down to the music used, the references, the name of the mine in the trailer, and he's looking forward to it. Only watched it the once earlier (I'm sorry!) and it seemed to have a slightly different feel, but I'll have to watch it once or twice more (and maybe more after that. lol) to get a better feel for it.

I believe Beckett authenticity usually attends the larger SM events, and if they don't then I'm sure there will be other people who can authenticate your autographs.

If you want a look at the services/prices you can see them here, they usually offer a show discount though if you choose to wait till them to see them https://www.beckett-authentication.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
