I'm shocked - you have a balcony?!

I say balcony, it's really a shoebox taped to the window frame but it's a balcony to us.

Morning, Rick. How are things with you?

Does the cat ever venture out there?
Was thinking it would be fun closing the door on it (and pulling faces at it from the safety of being inside) but then I guess you'd have to face the feral consequences afterwards.

Good mate, cheers, hairy, but good.

So who was Paul Ritter?

She does. Quite often she'll exit through the bedroom door and sit staring through the sitting room door until I let her in, even though the bedroom door is still open. I think it's just her way of telling me I'm beneath her.

Looks like it was Tino. He's risen more times than Jesus but has sadly passed on once again.

Twice?

Affirmative.

Probs, Tino, usually is.

Fist.

Blunt tird on this no-nonsense Wednesday.

Not dead. Well not again anyway.

Nearly died on Sunday though. Watched two films in one day which was exhausting. Kong V Godzilla - two monsters smashing each others faces in for no apparent reason. Terrible story line but the special effects made up for it. Then watched a Matthew McConaughey film called Serenity. My god it was sh*t. F*cking miracle I stayed awake. I only did that because I kept waiting for it to turn into a film rather than some w*nky art school sh*te that thinks it was cleverer and more entertaining than it was. C*nts.

McConaughey always plays the same character. He is always Rust from True Detective. Rust was one of the best on screen characters I've seen in years but stop playing him in everything else.

Tino be praised for He hath risen once more!  There is now daylight between him and Jesus.

Watched Goodfellas again for the sole purpose of spotting actors from the Sopranos, having just finished the Sopranos.  What a bloody good film it is.

I really enjoyed Godzilla vs Kong, absolutely no need for story or anything making any sense whatsoever when i can watch a film that regresses me back to watching the toho films when I was young, and i can just turn my brain off.

Galted wrote: What a bloody good film it is.

Aye, it is a cracker for sure.

riCK - I don't know what a toho film is but I also enjoyed KvG. Any film that has a massive lizard burning a hole through to the Earth's core deserves high praise. It would have earned an extra few decimals on the GSoCE if Godzilla had burned a hole through the face of whoever wrote Serenity.

It's like the bloody film thread on here.  

I watched Train to Busan: Peninsula at the weekend.  Can't think of many other sequels to great films which are so poor but which are still watchable.  Back to the Future 3 springs to mind.

Didn't even know the sequel to Train to Busan was out, supes.

What platform you watch it on?

An illegal one, clearly.

REPORTED.

It was on Amazon Prime - included in the package so didn't have to pay anything extra for it.

It's not a good film at all. Looks like a video game for large parts of it and other than forming inconveniently massive road blocks, the zombies are kind of secondary. It's a shame because there's a scene at the start of the film on a ship which is up to the standards of the first film.

I genuinely thought it said Amazon Prime and not Glamazon Pride.

Cool, I have that, mainly because the missus orders a sh1tload of unnecessary stuff that for some reason she needs next day.

Same.  

The film is fine as a freebie but it's miles off the standard of the first film.

I love zombie films. How in the name of f*ck have I never heard of Train to Busan.

I have Amazon Prime. Is the first film on there?

F**k knows, it's the best Zombie film I have seen made in a long time.

rIck_dAgless wrote:F**k knows, it's the best Zombie film I have seen made in a long time.

That should be the tag line on the posters.

I'll try and find it tonight.

Happy to be quoted....

It gets repeated on Film4 a fair bit so might be on All4. Not sure if its on Prime but worth a go.

It's bloody brilliant.

Just checked for you - it's on Prime. £3.49 to rent which is a bargain.

If zombies are your thing you probably want to give Days Gone on the PS a go. Pretty frightening when you encounter a horde of the buggers. They're not officially zombies but there's sod-all difference in my educated opinion.

You, Sir, have shot right up my list of favourite posters.

That's my evening sorted out. W*nking furiously can wait till tomorrow.

I'm glad we worked out which platform Train is on.

I have had The Last of Us for about 4 years and played all of about 10 minutes worth.

Let me complete that first and then I'll move on to Days Gone. Should only take me another 26 years.

#alive is okay as zombie flicks go. The train to busan sequel has a decent car chase sequence near the end but most of it feels very clichéd, and as for the final scenes they made no sense and you really wish she'd just pulled the trigger.

Talking of terrible films I tried watching American Assassin the other day. Didn't finish it. Really cba.

JuliusHMarx wrote:I'm glad we worked out which platform Train is on.

Solid work.

lostinwales wrote:#alive is okay as zombie flicks go.

Yep, I've seen that one. Was decent.

On today's theme of posting about films that most people aren't interested in, I recently watched all three reunion movies for The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. Could have been worse - at least they put some thought and effort into them.

For the sake of f*ck, Jules.

There is a whole section on the site to discuss films.

Haven't played it but, from what I understand, it's as much a film as a game.

Have a look at the Days Gone sawmill horde on Youtube, sh*t me up something terrible.

You c*nt. Made me chuckle out loud in the doctors' waiting room. Tried to turn it into a cough but sounded like a tractor missing its gear.

Just googled it. Looked very much like opening time at The View. Only the zombies are slightly better looking than the girls.

Another out loud moment but luckily I'm at home now.

It's getting hard to keep track of all the wordplay.

Well I thought I was being clever. Must be getting ideas above my station.

Apologies for missing the good work, Galted. I think we all must have gone off the rails for a while.

Cheers, Julius. Was thinking there's no point but this is a signal for me to keep trying.

Well that was a bloody good film. Well worth the £3.49 even to a Man of the North.

Relentlessly good. Some cracking scenes. Particularly enjoyed the bit at the end with the infected piling up on top of each other whilst being dragged along by the train. Wanted the hero dad to survive but kind of realised he wouldn't given the mortality rate of the other characters.

Might watch the sequel tomorrow night. Or tonight now.

Fist. My first ever.

Sicond.

You'll never get Jeff back with such outrageous profligacy.

Been watching Prisoners as it's Galtova's chance to choose our evening entertainment after being subjected to the mafia for the last 3 months.  About an hour and a half in and so far it's been cripplingly tedious, saved only by a Hugh Jackson performance so over the top that Nicholas Cage would've been embarrassed.  Will watch the end tonight if I can stay awake.

Long overdue tird.

Thought you'd like Train to Busan, Tina. Glad you enjoyed it and didn't waste your £3.49.

Started watching Prisoners once a few years ago but the resemblance between one of the little girls and my oldest daughter was uncanny and it made it unwatchable so we gave up after 15 minutes. Never gone back to it.
