Sounds lovely... Bet you've seen them pics.

It's a good movie, Jason Statham in it.

Another good one, may not be a true story, Inside man. Denzil Washington, Clive Owen and Jodie Foster.

I've seen that, I liked that, she fell asleep after 10 minutes.

Not a fan of Jason Statham at all, think he's a big numb sack of ****.

 

[Bizarreknives]

I've always wanted to compile a list of films to get my mrs to watch to get her away from just the cheesy **** flicks she watches, the only thing I've managed to ascertain is she likes things that are true stories... Here's a few films she's enjoyed, not all true stories or adaptations...

Warrior
Shutter Island
Schindler's List
Murder In The First
Unbreakable
Taking of Pelham 123
Dangerous Minds
Gangster Squad
TWOWS
American Hustle
Pursuit of Happiness

So what can I get her to watch now? She won't entertain the thought of watching a film like Rocky, Platoon, Gladiator, Avengers... it has to be something that will keep her attention and the fact that it's a true story/based on one, usually does help.

I've seen every chick flick ever made by the way, it gets mind numbing. I ****ing hate Adam Sandler.

Dallas Buyers Club was a really good film I'm sure she'd enjoy.
Just watched Lucy and really enjoyed it. The wife didn't care too much for it. Scarlett Johansson is a goddess.

She watched 3 quarters of Dallas Buyers club mate, she pretends to everybody that she's seen it all but I watched her snoring on the end of the sofa.

Nah she'd hate Lucy, she even said so when the trailer come on when we went to watch Inbetweeners last week.

It's called The Bank Job.

I've never been a fan of a horror movie mate, they're either just a gore-fest or some silly yank girl running about her house getting chased by a man with a knife who refuses to run.

I quite liked the Ring because of how my mrs was when she was watching it, she was genuinely terrified and I was entertained by that!

Can't beat IT though, he was some ****ed up clown, they're remaking that apparently.

The book is way more terrifying than the movie. Gave me nightmares for Donkies.

The Others is quite spooky, as is the Woman in Black. Not gory though. Dog Soldiers is pretty funny and bloody.

 

[Bizarreknives]

I want to watch a decent horror movie, but can't find owt that looks decent. Any tips, the bloodier the better.

If you can get hold of them a couple of classics from the 80s are cannibal Ferox and also cannibal holocaust.
Very gory indeed.
Eli Roth has also just made a cannibal film in homage to cannibal holocaust, it's called Green Inferno, it's not released yet but from what I've seen and read, it's gonna be super gory. It's Eli Roth after all.

Seen them both, in fact watched cannibal holocaust again not long ago.

Which one do you prefer, I always preferred cannibal Ferox, I remember buying it from Chester le Street market on a bootleg VHS, it was banned at the time and I actually thought it was real, as in a snuff movie.Early 90s I think it was.

Groundhogs "Thank Christ For the Bomb" .
This is the full album the above track is about 13 minutes in and lasts 7.5 minutes.
Absolutely brilliant the way it goes from a thoughtful quiet song, to sounding like marching feet and then the noises of war.

Leon's a sick film, I've not watched that for years now.

He's cool as **** that guy, perfectly cast movie.

Jennifer Connelly was in House of Sand and Fog as well, she is a great actress.

I'm going to watch Transcendence tonight, with Jonny Depp looks good anybody seen it?

 

[Commachio]

Hurt locker was ok...but still.

No mate, never heard of it....war, western?

 

[Tel (they/them)]

It's a modern warfare film mate, true story. Absolutely brilliant film.

It's about a small Navy Seals unit sent in to grab some Taliban leader, I won't go into too much detail just watch it.

Thumbs up from me. Much better than I thought it would be.

Yeah I thought that mate, you can apply that to most films with Mark Wahlberg in, you just think it's gonna be a let down but he's actually very good on screen.

 

[Tel (they/them)]

Moving on, anybody got any clips they want to share of really funny things?

This can be anything that you deem funny that isn't so main stream... as in, we've all seen Del Boy fall through the bar, yeah it was funny the first 1000 times but I'm more interested in things I might not have seen.

For me, I was in stitches at this... it was part of Ricky Gervais' stand up show Politics, where he's imagining the conversation between Hitler and Nietzsche...
