BritManToo Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Just working my way through season 1 of 'Nos4a2', a surprisingly violent fantasy series about a vampire child killer. Downloaded 3 seasons of 'Dark' a German fantasy series ...... no idea what that'll be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Athlete A Thought this was excellent. Summary: An August 2016 article in the Indianapolis Star about USA Gymnastics protecting coaches accused of abuse leads to the explosive revelation that the USAG women’s team doctor, Larry Nassar, had been abusing athletes for over two decades. This film follows the IndyStar reporters as they reveal the extensive cover-up that allowed abuse to thrive within elite-level gymnastics for more than two decades, the attorney who is fighting the institutions that failed these athletes, and most importantly, the brave whistle-blowers who refuse to be silenced.

xylophone Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Came across a movie called "Snowden" which was released in 2015, however I don't ever recall seeing it, so I downloaded it and enjoyed it. I suppose the content and the outcome will be a bit divisive as to whether he was right or wrong in doing what he did, but that's up to the viewer!!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Oh, and just for the record the original version of the "Magnificent Seven" is available on BBC iPlayer and I managed to watch it the other day, and I have to say the quality was very good and it was enjoyable to see this old classic again.

I just noticed recently how many movies kick off with a couple bonking. It seems almost obligatory and usually adds nothing to the movie except titillation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer it should be good will27 Its a pity she didn't finish book, or live long enough to see the real life ending (Sshhh)---cant believe everyone doesn't know what happened to one of Americas biggest series killers...but just in case....(SShh) . So after she accidentally died in her sleep from an overdose, husband took two crime writers & finished it, Then sold it for a lots & lots of money.--& married again......

Popular Post worgeordie Posted June 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2020 New Vs Old, I have been watching old Noir detectives and Westerns lately, and have noticed i can clearly hear what the actors are saying,where in new movies and series i have difficulty hearing them,there seems to be a lot of mumbling going on, dialog difficult to understand, so i have to use subtitles. Another thing i find irritating into days movies and series, is some of them going back and forward in the story line, or starting at the end and going back to the beginning, much prefer a story starting and ending. Good documentary, Lost cities of the Amazon, they are finding places were civisations lived 1000's of years ago, and at one time maybe 10 million people living there.......until the Spanish showed up. regards worgeordie 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had all but forgotten how good it feels to watch comedy. I had tears in my eyes from laughing. They have packed so many amusing stereotypes in this little movie. The Russian gay singer, the host in car prototype camouflage, the swedish band, the Israeli girl and of course the underdog Iceland.

Thank god for subtitles (& thanks again to whoever mentioned Still Game, loved it) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a couple results about the series generally, but none say how many episodes it will be. Can't find an entry on IMDB. Just have to hope someone keeps putting it on tpb.
