It would have been nice for Clint to go out on a high instead of this hogwash, but that's only my opinion. Oh come on. The man is nearly a diety. The ultimate trophy ++++. It is a bit of reality, laced with a bit of fantasy. I was no fan of the Mule, but the man can hardly do wrong. He is one of the greatest iconic actors and one of the best film directors, of our lifetimes. I will never tire of Clint. He is THE MAN! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Thornton puts his heart into a project, he can do no wrong. An absolute powerhouse of an actor. Reminds me of his work in Sling Blade or Fargo S01. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch very few TV series as well, altho some are outstanding. Bron/Broen as one example - Peaky Blinders as another Watch very few TV shows? these days? This is the golden age of TV. There are likely more good TV shows than good movies these days. You are really missing out. So much great work. True Detective, Fargo, The Crown, Breaking Bad, Hell on Wheels, Homeland, Atlanta, first 5 seasons of Game of Thrones, Chernobyl, Justified, American Crime Story, Bloodlands, Mr. Robot, Hannibal, Electric dreams, Black earth rising, Mare of Easttown, the Great, Brave new world, Patriot, Six, Time, and Upload. Not to mention an incredible number of great foreign series, such as Gomorra, Romanzo Criminale, Fauda, After life, Peaky Blinders, Sacred games, Broadchurch, Money Heist, Babylon Berlin, The Bridge, El Marginal, A very English scandal, The Bureau, Occupied, Temporada, Katla, Hanna, Start up, Baghdad Central. I could go on, and on and on. This is truly the golden age of TV, and if you are not finding TV you like, either you need to splurge on Hulu, and Netflix, or expand your horizons. I am not talking about network TV anymore. And I will not even venture to discuss reality TV, which I consider to be the lowest common denominator of American culture, and a large part of reason for the cultural demise of America. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen Joe Kidd, Thunderbolt, or Beguiled for over 30 years so will give them a look-see. Watch Pale Rider, High Plains Drifter, Two Mules for Sister Sara, Hang em High, and the Unforgiven again. I cannot watch them enough. True classics. Clint on the top of his game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just starting the 4th of 5 seasons and really enjoying it. Talk about drama. Monic Hendrickx in the lead role is very good. Any idea where to find an HD version of it? Cannot seem to find one.

Penoza.S03E01.Aflevering.1.720p.BluRay.x264 SA89.mkv These don't seem to have subs, but I didnt DL to check. Penoza.S01E01.DUTCH.1080p.BluRay.x264 VeDeTT.mkv or you might find this internal release Penoza.S02E01.720p.WEB DL.AAC2.0.H.264 BTN.mp4 Try googling those filenames and see where it takes you.

After watching them all from the first, I can't believe that this is worth a watch, as they have got progressively worse over time - but I will give it a look - Can't beat bit of Vinnie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You left out "Vikings", which you mentioned in a previous list. Thank you for that - I watched 2 - 3 episodes/night of Seasons 1 - 3. Most or at least a lot of IMDB'ers stated that it goes bad after that, altho I will probably take a look at Season 4 to see if I agree. I've cut and pasted 2 previous lists of yours, this is the 3rd. You also led me to "True Detectives" - I watched 1 and 3 as most people on IMDB hated 2. I agree with you that Season 1 is the one to watch - minus the last 5 -1 0 minutes but engrossing up till then. (Health alert - There are so many cigarettes smoked that simply viewing it may cause lung cancer). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteBuffaloATM Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 “Wrath of Man” seen today at SFX. Menacing Guy Ritchie/ Statham Crime Action Drama. Zero Wokeness. Great Gunfight scenes. Unmissable. Tomorrow Bond Is Back: “ No Time To Die” at SFX Big Screen ! First Showing here I come… “Foundation” series on Apple TV+ looking quite good after first three episodes, fourth available tomorrow.

Will27 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Catching a Predator RARBG A documentary exploring the investigation into the horrifying crimes of Reynhard Sinaga. While the true extent of Sinaga’s offences will probably never be known, in 2020 he was prosecuted for 159 counts of rape against 48 men.

recom273 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 My wife compares every American series to the following or CSI. For the past, what seems like 10 years or more she perks up with, when does CSI come back? Happy to say CSI has returned as CSI: Vegas. Looks promising, same old characters, some new, same old cinematography tricks - like nothing has changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only watched it because "Vinny" was in it and he can put in some sterling performances (such as "Big Chris" in Lock, Stock, "Bullet Tooth Tony" in Snatch and "The Sphynx" in Gone in 60 seconds). Just my opinion of course. As I've stated previously, the world would be a pretty boring place if we all had the same likes, dislikes & opinions.

Savile's decades-long career of abuse seriously affected the reputation of those who failed to stop him - most notably the BBC, hospital trusts and the police - once the truth emerged widely after his death ten years ago. Seen through the eyes of those who worked alongside him and investigated him after his death ten years ago, this programme features new testimonies from victims who bore witness to his crimes while providing a vivid insight into how he courted the Establishment as a way of protecting himself. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
