Wilsonandson Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) The greatest sci-fi movie ever made. Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) experiences a close encounter with a UFO, when it flies over his truck and lightly burns the side of his face with its bright lights. The UFO, joining a group of three other UFOs, is pursued by Neary and three police cars, but the spacecraft fly off into the night sky. Roy becomes fascinated by UFOs, much to the dismay of his wife, Ronnie (Teri Garr). He also becomes increasingly obsessed with subliminal, mental images of a mountain-like shape and begins to make models of it.

evadgib Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Does anyone know if the remake of 'the Dambusters' ever made it to screen? I caught the original 1954 version in UK last week and explained it to my wife who couldn't quite believe that such audacity actually worked. RIP to Sqn Ldr Guy Gibson VC And all who lost their lives 74 years ago tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evadgib Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Having waiting 2 weeks for the conclusion of 'Undercover' from the BBC I was somewhat disappointed at the ending. Upon looking around it appears i'm not alone (Spoiler Alert: Do NOT click this link if you haven't seen the last episode!) http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2016/may/15/undercover-finale-recap-its-a-miracle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Tv series - Locked Up An excellent start to the is 24 part series from Spain.Has hard encoded subs.

giddyup Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Highly recommend a British mini-series called Flowers, 6 episodes, all available on KAT. The Brits really know how to do this quirky kind of black comedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank James Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Letterkenny A friend turned me onto this gem of Canadian humor at its best. As funny in its own way as Silicon Valley, the only other show (besides Last Week w/John Oliver) that makes me laugh out loud. Great stuff. 1st Guy: Howzit goin'? 2nd Guy: Aw, not so bad. That's Canadian! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB300 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Watched X-Men Apocalypse at the Imax (3D) last night & (surprisingly) really enjoyed it [emoji106] 2hrs 25mins long but it's fair moving so the time flew by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evadgib Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) I watched that Billions recently, excellent show, check it outHaving seen so many positive posts about this I thought I'd give it a try...I lasted 30 mins into the pilot(!)

mtls2005 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Looking forward to the premier of "Preacher" on AMC tomorrow. I liked Billions, 11.22.63, The Expanse, The Magicians, Lucifer, The Catch, Daredevil/S2, Vinyl, Second Chance, The Night Manager, Plebs, The Man in the High Castle, Lucky Man, Archer, Orphan Black, Narcos, Jessica Jones, Girls, Good Wife, Blindspot. I think Better Call Saul is one of the best shows ever. The body count is greatly reduced from Breaking Bad. (Listen to Kelly Dixon's - editor on the show - podcast, Better Call Saul Insider, for a behind the scenes view of this show.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Tv series - Wolf Creek A decent enough start to this 6 part series from Oz. Based on the movie of the same name.IMDB: Eve, a 19-year-old American tourist is targeted by crazed serial killer Mick Taylor. She survives his attack and embarks on a mission of revenge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
