    Yes

    Guess what, Saroo Brierly got paid $12 million for his story. Has donated to the orphanage in India and also provides for his biological mother

    Been reading up on his life today, I find this story fascinating and sad at the same time. Amazing

    I'd recommend the book from what I've read so far. It adds so much more to the Indian experience, which is as far as I've got so far.

    From On Lion's opening day, the man behind the story, Saroo Brierley, has cried watching it 20 times already

    I have a ticket to Gold Class that expires and the end of the month. Not much of interest to me:
    Logan (92%)
    Kong: Skull Island (79%)
    Hidden Figures (92%)
    Lion (86%)
    Fifty Shades Darker (9%)

    Out of those, Hidden Figures is probably the most interesting but not really a 'big screen' movie. I guess Logan but I have not loved the Wolverine movies. I should have posted in first world problems.

    I ended up seeing Life. It wad ok. Remake of Alien in some ways.

    Recently caught Passengers on Blu-ray. Disappointing. 4/10.

    Assassins Creed. Muddled. 5/10.

    Is Hollywood making good movies anymore?
