BookMan Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Just saw the final episode of Game of Thrones. Found it very exciting and to be a fantastic set up for the next season. They certainly spilled some blood this time. May be not the best season so far, but the best tenth episode. Not what i wanted to see..but a great episode... such a long wait! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraday Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 "Rewind" on You Tube....it's a Pilot for a Series that was cancelled. Really worth a watch if you like Sci Fi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Patsycat Posted June 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2015 I am limiting myself to only two episodes of Orange is the New Black per day. Otherwise i would not get any fresh air or eat. That said, i seem to fall asleep a lot. Hopefully it will get better, i am up to episode five. I read somewhere that they are already filming Season Four. My attention span did go into overdrive last night, I actually watched a movie!! Wild Horses - i recommend it very much. I won't bore you with the details, you all know how to google. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GrantSmith Posted June 16, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2015 I watched Dolph Lundgren's latest adventure last night, featuring Thailand's Jackie Chan "Tony Jaa" - "Skin Trade" Starts off in Cambodia and moves to Bangkok then back to New Jersey and then Bangkok and somehow manages to get back to Cambodia (but still appears to be Bangkok). Movie is based around the title of the movie involving human trafficking, Lundgren starts off as a NYPD detective but falls off the rails after his family is taken out by Serbian mobsters in retaliation. Lundgren heads off to Bangkok in search of further retaliation and runs into Jaa a RTP detective. It all goes on a merry dance around Bangkok, somehow ends up in Cambodia (without actually leaving Bangkok) and bit of kung <deleted> here and there. Some folks aren't who they say they are and bla bla bla truth comes out, bad guy is now the good guy but was really the good all along. Some dude gets blown up another shot and it wouldn't be an Asian based martial arts flick if there wasn't some dude who got a kung <deleted> chop.Surprised the TAT haven't been out promoting this movie. Shows Thailand in a pretty good light and especially after they went to town promoting that god awful waste of film Only God Forgives.You can also take to the bank that there'll be a sequel... Ron Perlman's plays his new typecast bad guy role and we get a couple of glimpses of the delightful Celina Jade 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rijit Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) 3 episodes in and ' unreal' is rapidly hitting all the right buttons and headlining the' must watch' list, which atm for me unfortunately is very very thin on the ground. Why is it on that list ? simple really, the closing line of episode 3 couldn't have done a better job in summing it up ' its good tv' Edited June 17, 2015 by rijit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Tyrant seems to be concentrating more on the Tyrant and less on the Americanized good guy. That might work as the bad guy is a lot more interesting character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rijit Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Dificult to tell after one episode mate But his charecter to me has a sort of comic book straightness that almost lends itself to satire but that would just be horrible !!! tbh, im not fond of the way the actor has developed him but plenty of time we'll see. , rijit Edited June 19, 2015 by rijit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GrantSmith Posted June 19, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2015 Fans of the delightful Tao Okamoto will watch her portray a very different role in Hannibal.. New series that kicked off this week "Complications" centres around an ER Doctor caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.. I'm thinking House meets Burn Notice (sans ex-CIA operative or maybe it's that the lead characters of these shows - Complications and Burn Notice - look similar) and whose writer (Burn Notice) is also the writer of this show (Complications). Double episode to kick start proceedings, also features 'Vanessa' (Jessica Szohr) from Gossip Girl and 'Agent Pearce' from Burn Notice (Lauren Stamile) Looks good so far.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luved the book by the late ian banks , good. sounds like the drama works. Stonemouth was ok. The plot was fine as per the book. Butin the main i wasnt that impressed with the acting didnt 4 me develop the charecters strongly enuf. And the voice over narrating the story wasnt great. Saying that overall Far from terrible tv but for me, could have been better. rijit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
