I don't know for sure which version it was. How do you tell the difference? I really liked it up until the ending. The ending was terrible but at least there's a sequel. If it didn't have a sequel it would've ruined that whole movie.

I'll have to watch the second one.

Check YouTube for the difference between the two. If it was titled Road Warrior then it's the dubbed version. The Aussie one sounds more fair dinkun.

Well, just do not see the third one...

By the way, any news or clips from the new film? Can not remember if it is a sequel or a reboot/remake.

I'm the odd man out again - I hated the original. If I had known the sequel was a sequel I might never have watched it. I'm glad I didn't know and that I did see it. In my opinion it's by far the best of the three and one of my favorites.

Red October1984 · 03-27-14, 10:10 PM

Well, the one I watched had all Aussie accents. If that makes a difference. I'll check youtube.

The Road Warrior is the name of the sequel.... Wiki

[QUOTE=Red October1984;2065254]I love movies... I couldn't pick a favorite if I tried... There's too many good ones... However, I know everybody has that one movie you like watching no matter how many times you've seen it.

Two Questions:

What's your favorite movie?

For me, that's easy. 1962s ''Lawrence of Arabia'', however, in keeping with the heart of this outfit, I offer for your consideration a 1971 film called ''Murphys War'', made by the same actor, the late Peter O'Toole, in which he plays the vengeful sole survivor of a U-boat sinking out to get the crew and boat who did his mates in along the Orinoco River in Venezuela during WWII. Based on a novel by Max Catto.

Now that sounds pretty good!

I'm going to have to give that a watch sometime.

Welcome to Subsim by the way!

Say, Thanks R.O!

The film can be viewed on YOUTUBE, where there are a few full -play versions. The sub jockey here at our humble home watching the first portion of the movie will instantly see that the German Type IX U-Boat is actually a facelift of an American boat, in this case, the BALAO-class USS TILEFISH [SS-307 ] which saw distinguished service in the Pacific Theater around Honshus ''Hit Parade'' in '44-45. She was sold to the Venezuelan Navy in the 1960s and this is how she went ''German'', the disguise assisted by dazzle-paint and a full German-speaking cast, for ''Murphys War''.

Need For Speed

Saw it with some friends last night. I really really liked it. I recommend seeing it....but not for the movie theater price unless it's something you're REALLY going to want to see.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes. A really good prequel (to the originals, I've not seen the more recent remake) and has made the forthcoming Dawn of the. . . even more appealing.

Watched World War Z on tv last week and wasn't overly impressed.

It's honestly a pretty disappointing movie. I knew from the commercials that it wasn't going to be as good as the hype says.

mapuc · 04-28-14, 04:00 PM

Have anyone seen the new Spiderman?

Was it worth watching?

I have to wait until it comes on DVD or stream(Legal)
