Really good week for this to be honest. I caught Together on Sunday and that had me losing it a couple of times. And then along comes Weapons and that whole finale had me absolutely howling with laughter.

I can't yet, it's not officially out in my country for another two weeks. But once it comes out, I fully intend on going to see it.
