I once hired Sean Connery to train my dog........ it didn't go well.

  • I have two potential MI6 teams, that I would like to see... Emily Watson (M), Jenna Coleman (Moneypenny) and Bill Nighy (Q) or Stephen Graham (M), Daisy Ridley (Moneypenny) and Chris Barrie (Q)

  • I would rather no Bond, that a Remaster of GE:RA. It had an intriguing idea, that was poorly executed.
  • Freddy's Revenge.... that's the 2nd one? I am a little foggy on those middle few, I haven't watched them in a loooooooong time. New Nightmare is by far and away, my favourite, followed by the original 1984 film, then Freddy vs Jason. If I think of F…
  • The thing that doesn't sit right with me, is Martin in Dracula '31. The humour surrounding him, sits awkward among the rest of the film. I still place it as one of my top 3 favourite Dracula films (the other two being the Nosferatu remake and Dan Cu…
  • I have never seen the original Frankenstein. And the Wolfman too, now that I am thinking about it. Dracula, The Mummy and The Invisible Man, I have seen, but not those two.
  • I don't want to say anything against about SEGA, because I love the Yakuza games, and I want them to bring back Kuze. Either another prequel, set even further back, in the 1960's with a young Kuze climbing the ranks. Or a new game, with Kuze (who by…

  • KTBEU = Keeping The British End Up. It's what this forum used to be called before the 2011 redesign. There are still a few of us fossils around from those days. ;)
  • Beyond The Law (2019) Seagal doesn't get much screentime in this one, but what little of the film that he is in, he is sat down for most of it. Now there's a surprise. And what was with that final.... fight (I use the word in the loosest way possib…
  • The only way that I would want to DB5 to make appear in Bond #26, is if it were to be blown up in the pre-titles sequence. Drop a nuke on it, if need be. I have never found it to be a particularly attractive car. From the same decade, the DBS is muc…
  • I finished it this evening. I enjoyed it for the most part, except... (Spoiler) Also... (Spoiler)
  • Yakuza Kiwami I wanted to keep the momentum going of my Yakuza series playthrough, so jumped into Yakuza Kiwami, and played the first few chapters. 7 years have passed since the events of Yakuza 0. It's now 1995, and life is good for Kiryu and Nis…

  • Creasy47 wrote: » Neve Campbell will not be returning for Scream 6: https://deadline.com/2022/06/neve-campbell-scream-not-returning-1235038974/ That left me distinctly lukewarm. Why is it so hard to get Resident Evil right?
  • It's a pity that they couldn't have stopped by Westminster Bridge to recreate that famous photo.
  • Out For Justice (1991) Not the best Seagal film (though still Golden Age Seagal)*, but i's the one with the most famous Seagal scene. * No dubbing, no doubling, he was actually capable of this stuff back then. ---The Good 1. Under Siege (1…

  • Bagged myself a 4 for 1 kill earlier on Sniper Elite 5. Also ran into an annoying bug. I was hiding behind a fountain, on the other side were a group of about 5 Nazis. Without any warning, the fountain disappeared. I can see them, they can se…
  • The Ninth Configuration is one of my favourites; along with The Squeeze and Road Games. It is one of those films which is nigh on impossible to put into one box. There's comedy, drama, horror and psychological elements in there.
  • Happy Birthday Stacy Keach, 81 today May his eclectic career continue for years to come.
  • Watching that outcome, was like watching a boxer getting knocked to the canvas, yet the blows keep coming. I didn't think it would go so well for Depp. He didn't get his $50M, but in the eyes of the public, he has had his reputation repaired. It'll …
