Back trouble continues, Wonder Woman 1984, Joker, Soul and Ice Age

My back is still playing silly buggers which is most inconvenient. I had been hoping it would all pass quickly but sadly it seems it does not want to. I had a disturbed night although thankfully not full of pain and this morning I feel stiff and in slightly more discomfort than yesterday. Back on the rum today I think, it might not help but it does at least mask things!

Breakfast of kings today with toast and turkey dripping, perfect. We decided to be brave and check out the newly released Wonder Woman 1984. The last one was OK, one of the better DC movies so we were interested to see how this one would stack up.

The verdict is that DC should stop making movies! That was not good. I wasn't a big fan of the first Wonder Woman and this one is no better. Patty Jenkins can be forgiven for the first one as she did not write that but she wrote and directed this one so there is no excuse. I hope that Lucasfilm don't let her write the Star Wars: Rogue Squadron movie and she is just taking on the director role. That end credits scene though!

To wash away the bad taste we watched the only really good current DC movie, Joker, 

Now this film is one that was deserving of a sequel although suspect it won't happen sadly. It does have a natural end but could easily be expanded to take the story on further. Sadly it too gritty to really fit in with the rest of the current DC universe films unless they go down a multi-verse route. 

Following some good reports we had heard we decided to check out Pixar's new movie Soul on Disney+.

It was a heart warming film although I'll have to watch it again as I did snooze through some of it LOL.

Sticking with Disney+ it was time for some Ice Age.
