Only just saw there was a new one, and only just rewatched the last one. What struck me was the bit with 'Jimmy Savile' at the end was very out of place, and the trailer I've seen for the new one, he looks like he's one of the main characters.
Idea being at times of original outbreak in alternative world Saville wouldn't have been outed and still a hero.
 
I am going into it with open mind simply because I think Jack O'Connell is a potentially generational actor. What he did in Sinners was excellent, and he has consistently impressed me since I first saw him in the film '71.

Similar name, but for me Josh O'Connor will be the one. Does art house (La Chimera), comedy (Knives Out), is about to go huge in the new Spielberg, and I think he's probably the only person who could take Bond to another level (whereas it's likely to fall from here).

The point is everything is out of place. The village is in the 50s. The kid and his father are hunter gatherers. The new version of infected are neanderthalls. The doctor is some kind of witch doctor. The jimmys are stuck in the 80/90s. While the rest of the world is modern.

The ending is weird because it is more an epilogue setting up the bone temple. Both were filmed at the same time.

Indeed. Sadly, O'Connell is a loose cannon rager - well he certainly was 6 years ago! I suspect since then he has started 'behaving' more!
 
Whetted my appetite until I saw Shankley was involved, really disliked him and his teams, Bob Paisley was a much better manager and person.

Going to watch it but surprised on your views re: Shankley. Did you feel similarly about Clough out of interest? What an era of managers. Full spectrum, from the ones mentioned here to Malcolm Allison to Lee to Docherty to (of course) Sir Bill. All so different. Remember the songs about Docherty re: his affair with physios wife? Brutal.
