Hopefully it will go elsewhere, a very good friend of mine and his partner saw CR in Manchester end of last month. We couldn't go, was gutted, hope CR pops up again somewhere, I've seen Jaws in concert and it was extraordinary, my favourite film …

Fincher Ranking He's one of my all time favourite directors and it's only Panic Room and Curious Case of Benjamin Button that I don't have much time for. 1.Zodiac 2. Se7en 3. Social Network 4. Fight Club 5. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo …

Craig & Viggo. I would rather Viggo going up against Craig's Bond than Malek, Malek is getting cast if he does because he's one of the hottest actors around. I've not seen him in anything but I think it stinks of trying to cast the flavour…

While I have come to love the way QOS begins, the way that camera whips across Lake Garda straight into the heart of the action right into the most visceral car chase the series has ever seen. I must concede that a GB at the start would have been p…

Manhunt 2019 I'm usually sceptical of ITV when it comes to drama with the exception of Endeavour and Vera. Although they do have a good track record when it comes to true life adaptations. 2017s Little Boy Blue with Stephen Graham is an example …

Memento is still the most audacious and original thriller of the last 20 years. I still don't think he's made a better film, closely followed by The Prestige. It's a little more than OK. Interstellar is the only film of his I dislike and I wa…

I bought my Wife Gosford Park on blu-ray for Christmas and she bought me this, 2 very different Robert Altman films but still both of high quality. I had all intention of buying the Criterion edition of this but luck would have it that a Region B…

I agree SF could have lost 10 or 15 but 30 - 40 minutes? I guess it comes down to how much you enjoyed it, it's one of my favourites. CR for me although looked at by some as excessive, I think needed the room to breathe and establish things and …

Bond is always at it's strongest when its European. I just look at my top 5 to see that. 1. OHMSS 2. CR 3. FRWL 4. SWLM 5. SF The DC era has taken full advantage of this whatever else we can criticize it for.

You know what is frustrating for some of us these constant posts that are loaded with criticism of DC and how he can't hack the pressure of the role and it's time he stepped down and someone more classic and statesman like took on the role. Thoug…

What Frankenstein wank off the series would be with this forum in charge.

Poirot ABC Murders 1992 After watching Agatha Christie given the Luther make over my Sarah Phelps I needed this 1992 Poirot adaptation of the story. The more I think about of 2018's Christmas version of this Christie's classic the incensed it …

Groups 2 and 4 for me I'd say.

Jackie Brown for me remains QT's finest film, with exception to possibly Waltz, the best collection of performances in a Tarantino film. Jackson has never been better and Pam Grier and Robert Forster are simply brilliant, subtle but effective che…

ABC Murders I think the problem you have when you attempt something like this is what more can you say that hasn't already been pretty much captured in a previous adaptation. Whoever takes on Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot, be it Kenneth Bra…

My no. 2 of the series but the below would be my changes. Get rid of the Omega line as that exchange is gold with Craig and Green sparking immediately but that crass product placement almost brings it crashing to a halt. I would change the Mia…

Ustinov was entertaining but I definitely prefer Finney to him in the definitely best big screen version. Suchet is just at another level and played the part to a tee, like Joan Hickson as Miss Marple, no one is likely to top their interpretation…

I sometimes wonder whether I've accidentally logged onto either the Aidan Turner Forum or the Tom Cruise is Lord God and the best actor around forum when I come on here.

I'd be quite happy with no Aston at all for once but I've a feeling they'll be one there but it would be nice if they could make one DC film without one in it and if there is a car in it, it's one Bond steals or it's his but nothing that puts too mu…
