You obviously have never watched any Hong Kong films, probably only Jackie Chan right? And I thought you were well travelled and cultured, you seem to act like it.

Knowing you, you probably only watched Tomb Raider just to look at Angelina Jolie's breasts, that was one of his few Hollywood films. Him doing a cameo in a Korean film is a big thing in HK/Korea

And I thought you were well travelled and cultured, you seem to act like it.

I fail to see the connection between being cultured and watching movies made in Hong Kong.

[DJ Pat]

That comment was to counter your sarcasm.

Show a picture of that guy to any Thai and they'll know him as well.

Nuts in May

just watched this from BBC's Play for Today series ,
great stuff from 1976,
About a couple who go camping in England , Dorset I think .
Nothing much happens at all- no murders, car chases etc, but super acting , a quintessential English play from director Mike leigh.





check out these lovely platform boots !

RIP Roger Lloyd Pack

Just watched this again:



It's an excellent film. Thanks to FP I had a read of a website that gives some explanation; the film's not too complex. I've watched it 3 times now and feel I understand most of what's going on. Very enjoyable film.

^ looks interesting

An exploration of how the actions of individual lives impact one another in the past, present and future, as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero, and an act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution.

yeh I might download it later , who is in it ?

Stars: Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Hugh Grant

Grant and Hanks ???????????
fuck that, bound to be utter shite with those 2 tossers in it ...




I have a huge black list of tosspot actors , and if they are in a film ,then no thanks ,
eg Gravity. I downloaded it then sent straight to the recycle bin when I saw George Clooney ''starred ''.

get a grip Betty ....

[Bettyboo]

Grant and Hanks ???????????
fuck that, bound to be utter shite with those 2 tossers in it ...

I hate them both, but they are both good in this. Plus, loads of good actors/actresses including a couple of sexy (and often naked) Asian ladies...

[blue]

well you're talking me round now ...
maybe after some wine, I'll give it a shot

[Bettyboo]

^best film of 2013 by some distance, Blue. You won't regret it.

[DJ Pat]

Hong Kong horror film 'Tales from the dark part 1' three short stories all as macabre as the other, and you thought Thai 'ghosts' were scary!

[dirk diggler]

I'm loving Vikings at the moment, so thanks for the recommendation and links!

The main dude is well cast for the part and does a top notch job.

Excellent show, but I'll not be watching season 2 as it is released, will wait until complete.

Only GOT and SOA forthcoming seasons have currently got 'watch by the week' status for me.

Good to see Hell on Wheels is getting a 4th season, apparently. Might be a WBTW contender.

Enough to make you vote conservative
13 January 2014 | by big al-41 (cambridge) – See all my reviews
I watched this last night, and I guess I wasn't surprised by the 'shock' factor instilled by the producers.

While I am not naive enough to think this is a complete representation of all people on benefits, it is certainly a microcosm of those estates/streets where these people have somehow congregated.

The galling factor is the constant smoking, use of smart phones (one girl who is threatened with eviction for not paying her rent is never off her iPhone, drinking and branded clothing, while all the time bemoaning they can't survive on benefits. Added to that, the general disgusting nature of the houses, dirty and untidy, brings me to the conclusion that these lazy so-and-so's have no intention of working and would prefer benefits (albeit much larger payments).

It was pleasing to see a guy who was trying to make a living and help those 'needy' people, by selling produce door to door in affordable quantities. I have a lot of respect for that person based only on what I witnessed in the episode.

In short, a group of miscreants who are happy to stay that way, and steal and defraud to maintain their way of life.

Sounds like Grampian Road. Full of Brums, Scousers, Yardies and Poles, so that's 4 nationalities accounted for. We built a wall around them and called it Craiginches Prison.

[toslti]

Funnily enough the area is Winson Green, the site of HMP Birmingham!!!

[DJ Pat]

I think that Romanian family who moved into that street put most of them others to shame by actually trying to work and not claiming benefits. I didn't watch long enough but I think they were forced out because they were going through the rubbish bags for scraps of metal

[Camel Toe]

just re-watched 'Unstoppable'.

quite good.

it's shit

[Jofrey]

bound to be utter shite with those 2 tossers in it ...

It is. An utter mess.

[DJ Pat]

Great stuff. Sammo Hung's always great...

[dirk diggler]

behind her in order;

Fat kung fu dude from Martial Law?

Inspector Gadget?

[DJ Pat]

That's Sammo Hung with Anthony Wong behind him, the chick is Jenny Tsee and the dude at the back is Philip Ng.

Martial Law was pretty terrible really apart from some of the fight scenes which were choreographed by Sammo's team

Given his size, he can actually do all those back flips and flying kicks!

Enders Game

It's got Korean subs but I don't think they get in the way.
The video and audio are very good.

I don't know if you've read the story, it's very very long and would be impossible to make into a film in it's entirety, what they have done though is compress the story very well. So if you've read or heard the story you'll already know the plot so you'll just be matching the scenes to the book, but if you haven't then you might feel like you're watching an extended montage... it's a difficult balance but I think they got it right. Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsly have good roles.

7.5/10
