i claudius Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Tv series- The State Enjoyed episode 1 of this new 4 part series. All episodes will be shown on consecutive days. IMDB: A look at the lives of four British citizens who join ISIS in Syria.

Wilsonandson Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Bluebeard was o.k but not anything like the host or oldboy. Still it's worth a watch. It certainly entertained me last night. Now what to watch tonight? I think it's time to watch some oldies.Here's two missing person movies that I love.Breakdown (Kurt Russell) and the Vanishing (Jeff Bridges).

Based on true stories, glamourising a minority of extremists to mass audiences and infecting a small minority enough for them to take the information all too seriously and radicalisation step 1 is complete. It's a stepping stone for the weak minds and it's those with weak minds the extremists prey on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G920F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app I'm watching season 3 of the Kingdom. Pure car crash tv watching this show. Some pretty good sex scenes but the leads are just ticking time bombs all on paths to self destruction. This show paints a grim pixture of UFC people and all connected to it. Frank grillo thinks he has the presence to pull of a tony soprano Dr melfi scene and flops. It's got to the point where every other word from him sounds like Punt. Kind of watchable though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using your analogy, we shouldn't be making shows about terrorists, serial killers, rapists etc. It's a TV show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me" I shoulda know better.... @sigh@ .... massive @sigh@ Prometheus was the first time I was a fool... but to be dumb enough to watch Alien Covenant, I can only blame myself. Oh, it looks nice (yay, Ridley!) but apart from that - it notches up 6.6 at imdb, which is a decent enough warning. Dreadful.... again. Speaking of dreadful movies - Michael Fassbender reminded me of Tom Hiddlestone so much that I must do my duty and hereby warn you never, never, to watch 'High Rise'. There's only one decent moment when there's a cover of Abba's 'SOS' by Portishead - and you can hear that elsewhere or on youtube without suffering the movie - i'll be reading the book once I've rinsed the memory of this from my mind. On the other good Tom Hiddlestone side - the TV series "The Night Manager" was marvellous. If you think Alien Covenant was crap, watch Tom Cruise "The Mummy." Absolute hogwash!!!

It was like the Silence of the Lambs. I was glued to the Tele. Best serial killer movie in a long time. Of course it's in Spanish with some English scenes, but I had good subtitles to read. Well worth your time watching. I'm going to check out Bluebeard next. Keep up the good work fellas. Bye! Absolute agree with you, Great movie. I didn't know is rained that much in Spain. Maybe time to have a side section of best foreign movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelepulse Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 If an international sports doping scandal that reared it's head in the Olympics interests you, check out Icarus. It's about Russia and their cheating on dope testing. This is a great documentary if sports, governments and conspracies interest you. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt6333060/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExpatOilWorker Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 This should be good.
