Anyone else see it yesterday???

I went to Chadstone to watch it after work (free screening tickets from work).

All the hype etc - was it overrated?? I think so.

Was OK - but I am glad to didn't pay to see it.

PS. Attempt not to post anything in here that may ruin the movie for people who haven't seen it yet.

I saw it last night at highpoint, it was ok, but not as good as the book (like most adaptations) but still a good story. The mouse eating popcorn and squeaking in the curtains next to us was a bit distracting though :thumbsup:

i still think the movie was good. for those who have read the book, of course it wont be THAT great cos you already know the story. I am sure people liked LOTR and the latest Star Wars movies as majority would never have read the books (me being one of them)

Anyone who hasnt will think its good as they wont have any idea about it. But the book is definitely better as it is more informative.

I feel the movie didnt do the book justice, they took out or changed parts of the plot that didnt improve the movie at all. There were a few one liners thrown in there for good measure, but i managed to be seated next to this chick who had the loudest laugh id ever heard, often laughing when no one else was. A little bit distracting.

Overall i give the movie 2.5 stars (out of five)

there are actually 9 books to the series...well that is what i am lead to believe. Check all the nerd forums. They all knew about the clone wars and stuff before the movies were made. They even have conspiracy theories haha

Who liked the Bourne Identity and Supremacy? Great movies, nothing like the books which were also great.

I liked both of those, got em on DVD but i didnt know they were based on books. Might have to go find them and give them a read.

Reading the Da Vinci Code later will probably be better as youll be saving the best for last. You wont be watching it picking the shite out of it for all the differences.

Tom Hanks should have started with Batchelor Party and ended with Big.

But... the book was enjoyable and the movie looks like a good thriller - just can't believe all the hoo-hah over it. People need to pull their heads out of their asses and remember it's not real.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
