Just as good as the unanimous reviews said. For once, a film that lived up to the hype and expectation. No, it didn't soil the memory of a classic. It was dark, violent and simultaneously very funny , brilliantly written with great performances from the original cast and fantastic music.
Lots of subtle nods across the room at the original as well as micro tributes to Bowie and George Best.
My only regret was not digging out the original 'Trainspotting' so it was fresher in my mind.

Love the last line. I may get to see this, but don't get to the cinema much. Sounds like it may be worth making the trip
Yes that's a line from Renton's updated 'Choose Life' monologue which is overly long and slightly cliched (aimed at younger audience ?). Worth seeing if you enjoyed 'Trainspotting'.
Seems you have been favoured with a 'whale vote' again, as have I. Steem has dropped along with other cryptocurrencies today, but it's still enough to buy some beers. At some point I will probably take some out to treat myself.
I understand a 'whale vote' is worth a lot but I don't quite understand how/why they are doled out.
The whales have millions of Steem Power and I understand that voting is based on the square of that. When you get above a certain level you can give a percentage of a vote. A full vote from the top whales could be worth $100s.
Why they vote on a given post is a mystery, although they do seem to have some favourites who are often top of the trending page. Not much we can do about that. I hope that if this thing takes off then Steem will get more evenly distributed. They say they plan to power down the main Steemit owned accounts, so that will free up Steem that people could buy if they want.
Steem price is down a bit this week, but then most cryptocurrencies have dropped as Bitcoin his problems in China.
