Aye, I can well imagine. People who've been there tell me that birds wont even fly over it. I know how I felt when I walked into Srebrenica.
I was so pumped up to see him in the UFC and he went and got tapped by Mir through shear inexperiance. You cant mess around with guy who have a ground game like Frank Mir. The next fight was the best though against Heath Herring where he came straight out from the bell and punched him halfway across the Octogon. Loved Brock when he was in the UFC. It was a real shame he never got to cement his place due to the Divititus thing, but to be fair he shouldnt have come back after that happened to him
I hope you get the chance to go mate, I never thought I'd find it interesting until I had to go to Krakow on business so thought I'd have a butchers. One of the best decisions I've ever made.
I think he went in to achieve something and was never convinced he was in it for the long run. Couture showed him no respect and he got dealt with, Brock wasn't the cleverest fighter but he grafted, I use his workout routine quite a bit for conditioning, I can't do half the stuff he does though, he literally is a beast.
He didnt seem to like getting puched that much, but coming from wrestling and then WWE I dont think he had ever took a good dig till he got to the UFC. Shane Carwin gave him a pasting in the first round of that fight but he still came back and tapped him out as Carwin was too stupid to pace himself and burnt himself out trying to put Brock away. Its hard to say as if we had been through the 2 operations he had and had 75% of our intestines removed I wouldnt want to walk to the shop never find get in the ring with a 240 pound animal. He doesnt have anything to prove to anyone as far as I'm concered, people said he was a pussy pro wrestler and he went to the UFC and for a while there was the baddest man on the plannet. Would have loved to have seen him carry on and I know there is always talk of him coming back but for me he should stay away, he held the strap for a while, kicked some big ass and has more money then he will ever be able to spend as well as a smoking hot mrs
It's been written mate, based in north california this time I believe, there's been lot's of rumours about casting... Pitt, Farrell, Phoenix... None that have particularly inspired me to be honest.
Weird as ****, had no right to be good or entertaining but it wasn't bad at all. Cheers for the recommendation!
Casting, whatever happened to the re-make of the magnificent 7? Lot's of talk, but who could they cast?
Last I read they were looking at people like... Denzel, Clooney, Freeman, Damon, Costner. Cruise had turned them down. Not really followed it's progess since I hear it was going to be directed by Fuqua who's been dogshit since training day which incidentally would have been an utterly ****e film had it not been for Denzel's utter class.
A hard movie to cast, without losing the identity of the original movie. Oh and **** Tom Cruise, how could he be a lead role in that movie.
They won't look at it that way. Look at True Grit, Jeff Bridges is a completely different Rooster Cogburn to John Wayne. Everything is bigger and "better" nowadays. Not sure if they were looking at him for a lead or a support role to be honest mate. He's a chap who could actually have had a decent career, Born on the fourth of July shows that but chose projects badly from the outset.
Glad you liked it mate, I thought I'd turn it off after 5 mins, it just looked like on of those films! Being a big fan of Tom Hardy, I thought I'd watch a film with him in called 'Locke', mate... just don't, awful. What a ridiculous film. I watched 25 minutes before I realised the whole film was going to be shot from the dash of his car, stupid Welsh accent, stupid storyline. Awful. I rate Tom Hardy, right back to the Band Of Brothers role he had (how many good actors in that by the way!) and Warrior is one of my favourite films. Also loved Lawless for it's sheer brutality, even though the ending was a bit over the top. Locke though, nah, **** that.
I watched Locke last night as well purely for the fact Tom Hardy is in it and he has to be currently the coolest bloke on the planet. The film was ****.
He is a bit untouchable at the minute mate, some of his roles are perfect for him, can see him having a great few years now. Although there's a musical called London Road he's doing, now if there's one thing I do not like it's a musical... won't be watching that, no sir, not for me. Locke was stupid.
Off on a tangent a bit, i;m busy looking at photo's. old photo's that were originally black and white, now getting turned into colour. Interesting stuff. Up until the 1970s, color photography was extremely rare, and so when we think about history prior to that time, we often envision it in black and white. Today’s technology now enables us to “colorize” historical photos, giving us our only chance at seeing what the world really looked like back then. And it was truly spectacular. Take a trip back in time through these photos below. It’s quite incredible to see Abraham Lincoln and Albert Einstein in living color.

Glad to hear that. I signed Locke because of the hype around it. I find hype only leads to disappointment. He's a very, very good actor but I'll never forgive him, Gordon-Levitt and Nolan for arse raping the last batman. Thought it was an appalling let down. If you haven't already, watch Lawless mate. Lebouf is a whiny little **** but Guy pierce is menacing, Oldman is cool as **** and Hardy is an utter lad!
Yeah I've seen Lawless mate, loved that film. He was ruthless in that. I didn't like any of batman films mate, apart from the one with Alicia Silverstone in that catsuit, the film was **** though. In my opinion, only Heath Ledger's performances made the recent ones what they were and dare I say it, his untimely death has led to over-hype on the films. In terms of action, entertainment and explosiveness (which superhero movies should be, for me) I though Avengers Assemble was far more entertaining, although I don't really like superhero movies too much. I've 'acquired' a few others, Guardians OTG... can't remember the others, but I have to be in the mood to watch them. Bane was just pure meat, fresh off the back of Warrior, he had a physique that they could use.
