  • Think i'll go with, Kill List (2011) A little seen film that blew me away when I first saw it.
  • My 5 for your consideration.... 1. Witchfinder General (Michael Reeves 1968) 2. Kill List (Ben Wheatley 2011) 3. Thief (Michael Mann 1981) 4. Deliverance (John Boorman 1972) 5. eXistenZ (David Cronenberg 1999)
  • Very interested. And like others on here will contribute as much as time allows :)

  • Great news! Let's hope it's a Bond film that Showcase's Craig's talent. He looks in great shape. Probably could do 3 more Bonds!

  • Even if he has agreed to do it on principal he's not going to blurt it out before any official announcement is he?!! EON would be well amused if he jumped the gun. But then Craig wouldn't do that as he's an intelligent and professional actor.

  • I should upscale my DVD of Moon to BD soon as well. I watched Moon 3 times over a weekend, once with the director commentary. Just love the film and Sam Rockwell is incredible in it. Love the 'LO-FI' special effects as well. Proving that a str…
