ITV?
It might be on again, it was on Sat the 30th, it's still on my box. Mine does say 5 though. I'll only let it record so it;ll auto sort out Rocky Balboa next.

I'm in tbe STV region, so possibly that's why we're see different things.

I'm seeing Rocky V as being shown on Friday night.

Watched The Whole Nine Yards...is it because he looks a bit like Frank Sinatra?

TBF the ancient Greeks and Persians didn't speak English (with or without a Scottish accent) either....
No, but it does make a film more watchable if all the characters from the same place speak with similar accents and maintain the same accent for the whole film...

The main thing I remember was the king of Sparta sporadically lapsing into a Scottish accent.

Children of Men was alright.

World's End was very poor compared to the others.
The problem is that it isn't funny. Or memorable.
I love it.

The opening monologue is one of my favourite movie scenes of all time.

I also lived and worked in the areas it was filmed. Was funny the first time watching it as I didn't know at the time and kept spotting familiar landmarks biggrin

Finally got round to watching Hunt For The Wilderpeople the other night after seeing it mentioned a few times earlier in this thread. Slowish start, gradually got funnier, a few annoyances (one character in particular), but overall not a bad film. 7/10

Watched it a couple of nights after seeing Thor Ragnarok without realising they're both by the same director, who also plays one of the characters in Ragnarok, and a couple of other actors are also in both.

Remember 'Alexander' with Colin Farrell - possibly the worst blockbuster for awful accents, actually it was generaly a st film which was such a shame given the subject matter.

A quiet place 9/10

What a great film! Tense, scary wihout having to resort to the usual bathroom mirror jump scenes.

Swimming With Men

Generally I am not a fan of Brydon but this classic type of comedy had me chuckling all the way through smile very much in the vein of The Full Monty.

Well worth switching off and a comical look.

8.5 laughters out of 10.

Interesting learned a few things their like I never knew that was Enio score I thought it was just Carpenter. Good year for movies never knew it bombed. That’s a travesty.
They are right about prequels

But they are wrong about the ending mcreedy is a thing and he infects child’s with the J &B bottle with cells from his mouth that’s why he smiles when child’s drinks it.
