EFC-Paul Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Cheers for that Ten never heard of it but looks right up my street. Watched Man with the Iron Fists the other day which I'd been looking forward to, was disappointed really to cheesy for me. Going to watch the last episode of Elementary which is brilliant if anyone hasn't watched it yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 We were watching bits of Sleepers tonight, but despite an all star cast (De Niro, Bacon, Pitt, Hoffman etc), it simply drags on after a decent first hour and any action just degenerates into boring court hearings. Saw this when it was first released and remember being disappointed at the time even then, but worth a watch if you've never seen it etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great movie, and a great performance by Kevin Bacon. In fact so good some people still struggle to look at him without thinking he's a creepy peado. Sorry about leaping from peado to beautiful, but Priceless is on BBC starring Audrey Tautou, who is possibly the most beautiful actress in the world.

Dalziel Kane Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 If you want to see a good Bacon movie watch The Woodsman. Probably best ever, I saw him in, far better than awful shit like Tremors or Hollow Man etc. And you can add Footloose to that, awful fucking movie.. About as outdated as dinosaurs now. Not watching anymore tonight damn it. We're going to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 It's such a good movie, I don't want to give anything away to those that haven't seen it. Flatliners with Julia Roberts and Kiefer Sutherland (1990) is also a good Bacon movie, and well worth a watch. I caught a bit of that French film the other night incidentally with Audrey Tatou. She is one very sexy woman. But I think for French nice looking ladies you can't look beyond Virginie Ledoyen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Looking forward to the Bates Motel series out next year. A tv show 'prequel' to Hitchcock's Psycho. http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt2188671/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta agree The Woodsman is a great film, fantastic peformance that should have got an oscar for but it didnt due to the subject matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Rising Sun with Snipes and Connery just before turning in for the night. This is about the sixth time this has been on now in as many months, but Film Four, what else do you expect If you want to see a good movie set in Japan, watch Black Rain or something, this really isn't it.

Dalziel Kane Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Goddamn commercials every six minutes aside, The Original Series of Star Trek on CBS. It's the one with Khan (Ricardo Montalban) who reappeared 15 years later in a feature movie after this episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Watched Ted last night cant believe how shite it was, talk about trailers selling a film Exactly the same thoughts as mine, the stuff from the trailers are amazing but apart from that the film was wank. It could have been so much more too! I don't understand why they turned it into a romance film when it was clearly better as a comedy, shocking decisions in the directors room.

Dalziel Kane Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Trading Places on Film Four is it Saw this on release, must have been nearly 30 years ago, and it's actually a decent movie, but seen it more times than I can remember Worth a watch if you've never seen it.

Dalziel Kane Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Just watching some of The Running Man on Film Four before a last thing. Just another Schwarzenegger vehicle, but it's dumb violent mindless fun, and worth a watch if you've never seen it. Not as good as the King novel though.

MikeO Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 The right use of "of" and "have". Thank-you . Was inspired to do it by DK correcting spelling (mine and Avin's I think) which left him open to the grammar police (and he's the worst offender when it comes to the "of" for "have" crime).

You're welcome. Feel free to correct any of mine that annoys you. I know my grammar isn't the best and happy for any help, as long as it's not too pedantic like misspellings and apostrophes.

I don't normally (though I'm a bit anal about it tbh; even when I'm texting I have to be grammatically correct, probably a generational thing ) but if someone gives it out they have to take it back . pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
