In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

There is certainly no demand from a story perspective. Just reading the premise for the first sequel, it just sounds like more of the same - good guy blue native Americans vs. bad guy capitalists. Incredibly boring. They would have to launch a massive marketing campaign, and probably tout some kind of new amazing technology to get anywhere near the box office of the original (similar to how The Hobbit played on the 48 fps to create hype). It's not going to be enough though.I’m still perplexed by his multiple Avatar sequels. Clearly it was an incredibly successful film - but driven by the 3D fad at the time. I don’t see any demand for the sequels.

They are all time classics.City of God, Requiem for a Dream, American History X off the top of my head are miles better and i wouldn't even class them as all time classics

Bloody hell...Near far, wherever you areeee
Come to think of it, Titanic doesn't even have the best 'sappy, cheesy, crying white woman tragedy' song! Pearl Harbor is admittedly a worse movie by practically every metric, but I actually prefer this over that Celine Dion song:

I think I would rather listen to Seal's Batman Forever single Kiss From a Rose on loop than watch Titanic.
I was just thinking recently about how extremely talented James Cameron is. He can draw (he drew the portrait of Rose that Jack is drawing in the movie). Two of his films are in the top 3 highest grossing movies of all time. He built full size to scale titanic replica for the movie from scratch. Holds the (joint) world record for deepest depth dived in a submarine.

This was a great tune, as was U2's Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me off the same soundtrack. Film was average though.I think I would rather listen to Seal's Batman Forever single Kiss From a Rose on loop than watch Titanic.

Oh yes, he's a extremely talented film maker. Absolute egomaniac, mind.I was just thinking recently about how extremely talented James Cameron is.

Still think the original Terminator and The Abyss are his best films, slightly undecided on Aliens and T2 though I admire the world building aspect of them both.
Seems utterly obsessed with these AVATAR films of his.
Worse than average, to be fair.This was a great tune, as was U2's Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me off the same soundtrack. Film was average though.
There's some decent shots in the film and I like the colour scheme of the general movie, its just practically everything else which is a issue.
Though I do have the unpopular opinion that Kilmer is/was a decent Batman. Had the jaw line and his voice, which seems like a odd positive, fitted the caped crusader.

I will reserve judgement until after I watch Mortal Kombat this weekend.
Really? Tbh I haven’t really watched him in interviews and stuff so I don’t know how he comes across hahaOh yes, he's a extremely talented film maker. Absolute egomaniac, mind.

With how well the first one was received, they're basically playing with house money and studios are going to let Cameron do whatever he wants with his proven track record of getting people to watch his movies.I’m still perplexed by his multiple Avatar sequels.

The only thing I've consistently read and heard regarding the next AVATAR film is there's going to be some epic under water stuff.
Not read anything with regards to the narrative.

I saw a censored version of Titanic on the television. Had no idea there were tits involved until I was a man.

The original with Gene Hackman was much better.No poseidon.

Next year will be 25 years since its release. I can't think of a better film over that time. Seriously.
There may be films I enjoyed more on first viewing that I'd never watch again, but there's nothing close to a film I can come back to with no 'i've seen it'. It's fantastic.

Con Air is the best movie of 1997.

the question is whether he and the film series are relevant anymore. There’s a big chance neither are.With how well the first one was received, they're basically playing with house money and studios are going to let Cameron do whatever he wants with his proven track record of getting people to watch his movies.

Incredible how overrated it is. Bourgeoisie chick falls in love with working class lad for a romantic weekend then ditches him because she didn't want to share the fecking plank.It was the only scene that got me through the bloody thing.
Father and Sound of Metal are better movies and they were released a few months ago.

At least the last thing he did before dying was bang a Bourgeoisie chick on a big feck off boat. There's a lot worse ways to go.Bourgeoisie chick falls in love with working class lad for a romantic weekend then ditches him because she didn't want to share the fecking plank.

Surprised no one has mentioned Kate’s tits. It was pretty groundbreaking at the time in terms of CGI.

The best film of the last 25 years is clearly There Will Be Blood. No further discussion needed.
