August 6, 201015 yr Still working mah wah through the AK 100 box set -- No Regrets For Our Youth is taking forever (it will be across three nights).
August 6, 201015 yr I hadn't seen the original Ghostbusters movie since the 1980s. It was interesting to see it as an adult. Most of it held up pretty well.
August 6, 201015 yr i'm watching the second ep of Sherlock, right now. i just don't know. he's no Basil Rathbone. Bet his fee is less than Rathbone's (corrected for the odd 60 years) by the odd couple of orders of magnitude. Daughter is just starting a year at at East15 acting school in "MA Acting for TV, Film and Theatre" East 15 Acting School at the University of Essex, MA Acting for TV . 6000 applicants for 16 places, so were all seriously happy bunnies.
August 6, 201015 yr porco rosso sounds like really terrible italian pornography. i know it's some non-korean animation, or something. That is a perfect name for terrible Italian pornography. It's a Hayao Miyazaki film.
August 7, 201015 yr G.I. Joe: The Movie (1987)... someone upped it in 1080P...couldn't resist... i'm surprised Shipwreck didn't go on to do other films...
August 8, 201015 yr watched 3 Days of the Condor as it was recommended to me... was pretty good...glad i watched it...i still prefer Sneakers of course:), but i'm betting the book this was based on is a good read... latest episode of Bullshit! was alright...now i might catch up on some Breaking Bad & might throw on that Kick-Ass movie...
August 8, 201015 yr OMG, drop everything, watch Kick-Ass first (unless of course you've seen it already).
August 8, 201015 yr haha...putting the blu-ray on now...need to mix in some water real quick hehe... hoping this won't be a blivet...
August 9, 201015 yr The Hunt For Red October. I love submarine movies. How about Das Boot? The German movie, not the series. Absolutely gripping - and long - the Director's cut is well over 3 hours. Watch it in German with subtitles (athough there is a version dubbed in English using the real actors to dub themselves).
August 9, 201015 yr Rubicon. Liking it so far. Just finished eps3, it's keeping up with the mystery/conspiracy thing, so far so good
August 9, 201015 yr there is a Das Boot series? I think he's talking about number of miniseries that were shown on TV (and later released on DVD) that included footage that were cut from the original theatrical release.
August 9, 201015 yr Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic. sometimes i think i'm the only person who thinks she's really funny. Obviously, you're not.
August 9, 201015 yr I think he's talking about number of miniseries that were shown on TV (and later released on DVD) that included footage that were cut from the original theatrical release. What I didn't realise, but now do, is that there are several cuts of the movie and *two* miniseries (a 3 x 100 minute one from a 1984 BBC screening, and a 6 x 50 minute version from 1988 - that is the one I recall seeing). I watched the 3h29m directors cut last year. Any and all are well worth watching.
August 9, 201015 yr OK - I've talked myself into buying the uncut miniseries version of Das Boot - 2 DVD's worth - from Amazon.
August 9, 201015 yr Sherlock. Each episode gets better - but this first series is only three, so that'll be the last for a while. Was also listening today to Benedict Cumberbatch on Radio 4 in a series damatisation of John Mortimer's Rumpole of the Bailey, with Timothy West playing the older Rumpole and Cumberbatch the younger. And very very good Cumberbatch is in the role.
August 10, 201015 yr one thing that Sherlock reiterates to me, though, is that nobody in British television production knows a damn thing about firearms. 1000 meters per second for that little Walther knockoff (looked a bit rough for a TPH) in the second episde? That is because practically noone in Britain knows anything about firearms. Military, police, the shooting birds brigade, and a handful of crooks.
