I don't remember anything great about American Sniper, it was glorified yank trollop for most of the film... With one or two Hollywood shots. Compared to Lone Survivor or Fury which I watched around the same time, it was total rat ****.

Im not really into the jurassic park things. They are watchable. But watched the last one yesterday. Again it was ok. But think that franchise has to be at its end
 
I watched American Sniper for the first time a couple of weeks back. I thought it was a really good film, if not a bit predictable. Poor ending to the film.

Lone Survivor - thoroughly enjoyed that film & recommend to anyone who hasn't seen it.

What food do you miss from 'home' mate?

Not a lot. I can get most of it here. And ad i only ever eat out. Some **** cooks it for me.

Probably the one thing is saveloys. A saveloy dip ive never seen yet..

Virtually evrrything else i can get. But my diet is mainly thai food.

What about a good pie? We should do a thread about pies.

Do you miss anything? Such as English pubs or cold winter frosts?

just watched Bridge of Spies with Tom Hanks.
Good film based on facts but obviously made to be more watchable.

Saw it a few weeks ago Crumble. Quite enjoyed it and as you said, based on facts.

The young student who was arrested recently piped up that what happened was nothing like it was presented in the movie!

Of course not!

Doesn't he know by now that Hollywood never lets the facts get in the way of a good story?
 
Just got home from the Cinema.

Me and she who must be obeyed went to see Its A Wonderful Life, the old black and white Jimmy Stewart classic.

First time I've seen it on the big screen (since it came out the first time <whistle>)

Great evening! Glass of wine, popcorn and an old classic.

Just watched Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse. Excellent, funniest film I've seen in years, thoroughly recommended.
