I was watching last night the funniest film I have seen for a long time...SHARKNADO.

Sharknado in two minutes


Looking forward to SHARKNADO 2 when it pops up on TV.

Just come from watching Gardians of the Galaxy! Very cool and good movie. Lots of action, jokes and cameo+easter eggs for many fans!

It's actually been a while since I've watched a good naval movie.

You should also read the book. The movie follows it closely, but is forced to leave a lot out. But the movie itself? It was filmed on a real corvette. You can't get much better than that.

The whole movie isn't on youtube, that I could find, I got it from another source...

...but there does seem to be a radio adaptation of the novel available.

I'm going to watch it either this weekend or over Thanksgiving break.

I've got several movies to catch up on. There's been another installment of the Saints and Soldiers series that I haven't seen yet. The first two are actually pretty good low-budget war movies.

If you like old British naval movies, Otto, then you may/may not know "In Which We Serve", "Above Us The Waves" and "We Dive At Dawn". A bit cheesy now but good for a rainy afternoon when they used to be on TV...

^ Thanks Eichhornchen and Jimbuna, finished "The Cruel Sea" last night, I was surprised how many famous British actors were in it.

"In Which We Serve" looks interesting, Thanks!



"Above Us the Waves" wow so this is based on a true story



"We Dive at Dawn" also looks interesting, looks like I will be busy for awhile

Default The Fearless Vampire Killers




(Also known as "Dance of the Vampires") I was about to plonk this on the Charles Manson thread then thought that might seem direspectful to the memory of Sharon Tate.

A favourite film, packed with laughs.
