Watched Aladdin but I must say I preferred the animation one
I was the same with The Lion King.

Prince of darkness by John Carpenter. Weird mix between scares and cheesy fun. Has a very intersting premise of the god in the bible perhaps not being the good god people are hoping for, but rather an anti god who grows stronger the more people pray to it.
Doesn't look like it had a very high budget, but Carpenter made impressive work with what he had. Some really amazing visuals. Has a dream like quality to it which reminds me a bit of Twin Peaks. Wouldn't surprise me if Lynch and Frost picked up a thing or two from it.
Not my favorite by Carpenter, but easy to recommend. Too interesting to pass up.

Eaglemoss do the same. I had 2 issues of my Star Trek Graphic Novel collection go missing from the newsagents. Bought them online instead. And then 10 weeks later they arrive at the newsagents. Thankfully just another 20, at 1 a week, to go for that collection. Should be done by February.

Are Hachette braindead?
I got a reply about my missing Slaine. They say they don't supply local newsagents, but they supply distributors which supply newsagents, so in effect, they do.
What the hell are these muppets up to.

Rambo: Last Blood
You could write the plot on the back of a postage stamp and at times it feels like a straight to video Steven Segal film or something.
An hour and a half flew by though, and if all you're after is to see Rambo fucking up some baddies it's good fun.
Not as good as the last Rambo but better than III and probably better than II.
Vile film. All Mexicans are rapists, traffickers and generally nasty people.
Build the wall!
Horrible film and a stain on the name of 'First Blood' which was the exact opposite.
I don't want to get into an argument about the moral standing of a Rambo film but I think this is a bit unfair. The aunt, daughter and journalist are all major characters and aren't depicted as nasty people. Other than that, it's pretty explicit that we're dealing with a gang of criminals rather than average Mexicans going about their business. It's like saying John Wick makes all Russians look like killers.
Thinking about it some more, I've changed my mind.

I've realised there's not actually any reason for the baddies to be Mexican at all. All the bits where they go over the boarder, they could have just been going to the nearest city. The gang members could have been anybody.
