The Movie Thread

The ultimate disaster movie. Couldn't find an English trailer for this 2012 movie.

I suppose the title gives the story away..."Japan sinks".

My favorite movie would have to be "The Stunt Man", starring Peter O'Toole. A funny movie about making a movie, followed by my second favorite, also with O'Toole, "My Favorite Year". "The Presidio" with Sean Connery is worth a watch, if only for the fight scene where Connery says, "I'll only use my thumb and keep one hand behind my back". "The Walking Dead" television series has kept me watching for around 10 years.

Currently, I watch whatever my 'movie maven' wife programs for our evening's viewing pleasure. Last night, we watched the new movie about Vikings, "The Northman" with Alexander Skarsgatd starring in what looks to be a re-telling of Shakespeare's Danish story.

Hoping that his posting will allow me, once again, to download mods. I have been away from the site and the games for quite some time, due to medical issues and my gaming computer morphing into a door stop but on a positive note, I did celebrate my 75th birthday!

I have a fresh install of SH4 on a Tiny computer and I want to download and install "We dive at dawn" which I have not been able to download for the last couple of days, since my return. I know that our admin master will reinstate my download privileges once he sees that I have surfaced and returned from the dark depths.

Hollywood have really overstepped the mark on this one.



That Prey film might have been worth a look but after watching the video I think I'll give it a miss.
Those Comanche Dog Soldiers of years gone by were the most brutal Indian Braves that the continent of North America has ever seen, letting any squaw tell them what to do never mind showing them up to be a bunch of ****ing fairies would have been the death of her.


Wonder Woman 1984.



No Spoilers.

Gal Gadot is a decent enough actress but even she couldn't save this movie from the inevitable train wreck it was. Some of the reviews say this film is "brilliant and fantastic", ****ing hell, what chemical substances were they taking at the time?.
I'll be brutally honest and say that most of these reviewers were being "Paid" to say that bleeding nonsense, the disingenuous bastards.

I think big Hollywood movies such as the Godfather, Predator, Terminator, Alien, The Matrix etc are beyond Hollywoods reach now, they've forgotten what a big Blockbuster is and how important the script is to it, until they go back to basics they'll keep right on producing garbage like this movie.
This Wonder Woman 1984 film with a budget of 200 million USD and a Gross worldwide $166,801,036 tells me one thing, it should never have been made.

I have to say that this film is so bad that I almost walked out of my own house!, I have to give it a rating so, the length of the film is 2.25 and that's what its getting.
Film Rating 2.25

"....this film is so bad I almost walked out of my own house."

A scene from "Monsieur N". Real conspiracy theory stuff this movie.

The official trailer from "Monsieur N"



And the "official" story from the great 2002 mini series "Napoleon" with the very lovely Tamsin Egerton as Betsy Balcomb.



Napoleon deserves 3 trailers.
