The Trailer Park

Alicia Vikander seems to be everywhere these days. I've just recently seen her in both The Danish Girl and Testament of Youth. Both good movies. I've never been very fascinated with the tomb raider games (never played, actually) or movies, though I have seen the ones with Angelina Jolie. I guess it's the same thing with Indiana Jones, really, but I have a hard time accepting adventure movies where all the old architecture and artifacts get lost, destroyed or shot to pieces, regardless of whether it's by the bad guys or all of them... And yet I like adventure movies with old architecture and artifacts and stuff...

Judging by what I see in the trailer, they have taken the 2013 game (which I really liked) as the inspiration, then ignored most of what was good about it.

I always enjoy the Tomb Raider movies, despite detesting Angelina Jolie, but I do tend watch movies 'surfacely'. I'm happy to shelve disbelief and analysis and just watch for the fun.

Speaking of which, i'm going to see Kingsmen 2 tomorrow night

I'm considering seeing Kingsmen 2 as well. At first I thought it was the same Kingsman as the previous time when I missed it because my local cinema was closed .... I thought they were just catching up. Anyhow I haven't decided which day. Probably not tomorrow as that's one of two days a week there's something not awfully bad to watch on TV.

If I see it before you i’ll let you know how I liked it

So if you like Kingsmen you’re going to love the 2nd one. It’s so much fun, lots of action, comedy and a great cast. I loved it.

Well I never saw the first one, but I'll try to catch #2 tomorrow then

But how is Colin Firth still alive??

No, don't spoil it for me. I'll find out in a year or so, and I'm sure it'll all make sense.

I take it he died in #1 then (seemingly, anyway)?

Talking about spoilers...

It does make sense. Well in a kingsmen make sense way
