The first series with Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson was excellent. The second series with Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams and Vince Vaughn was also good though with a slow start but a great finale. But the third series with lesser known cast of Mahershala Ali, Carmen Ejogo and Stephen Dorff was akin to watching paint dry on a cold wet day. I would recommend just watching the first two series and then have a siesta. ????

Therefore $1M in $100's only weighs 10kgs. In $1's it weighs 1 metric tonne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer not to "belong" to any "service" . Torrents are free and easy IMO I stopped using torrents a few years ago, except for some much older stuff that is only available on torrents. As I only watch one or two movies/series from each provider(Netflix, Apple+, Paramount, etc.) I cannot justify paying the monthly fees for the little amount I would get. I get most everything from scene dash rls dot net, where all new videos are distributed. This is where the people who publish the torrents get the stuff they distribute. Generally available here before any torrents are available. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally check the IMDB score, and if it's less that 5-6 I give it a miss. This turkey deserves a minus core. I usually don't even consider something that's less than than 7.5. The quality of movies has been really poor for years now. You can come up with the odd bit of gold now and again if you look I guess. I'd be lucky to watch 5 a year. There's so much good TV out there now that I just can't be bothered to watch a movie that's just OK. TV has really overtaken movies quality wise IMO. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a free account at dropa and it doubles the speed, up to about 1mb/sec. Theres a new choice fastlink that i haven't tried that also has a free mode. Dropa limits the size of the files to maybe 1 or 2 gb, so its not a source tor 2160p movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of follows on from the BBC series about Jeremy Thorpe, "A Very English Affair" which I thought was excellent, and I hope they produce many more of them. Had to admit to looking up the circumstances surrounding the Argyll case, and the three parter was true to the story in the main. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xylophone Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 After being thoroughly disappointed with the new version of Dune, I downloaded and watched the original 1984 version, albeit remastered, and enjoyed it, and for the first time of watching it on about three occasions, I finally understood it all!!!!! Although, I will add a rider to the above, inasmuch as the special effects were a bit naff in some parts, at least compared to what can be done today with CGI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyJ Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 20 hours ago, sanuk711 said: I re-watched "Heat" last night--- I had been reading a Biography from a retired FBI agent who headed up the Bank robbery unit in L.A. (most banks robbed in USA are in L.A.) He wrote about the different cases he had been on and also touched on the movies about bank robberies -which, he says- most people in the law enforcement find laughable. The exception would be the movie Heat--which came close to fact in some parts, but still fell short, in as much as when you watch guys running out of the bank to the get-away car with a Million $ or so in a duffel bag, the public do not realize just how heavy & bulky money really is. I guess everyone has probably seen the movie. But if your stuck for something to watch---its worth a download. All the stars-- De Niro, Al" 'Pacino, Jon Voight, and a heap of other including who I thought at the time would be a hugh star Val Kilmer I took it from "Yify"....which is a Kiwi site known for crunching movies down to a smaller size, because places like Rarbg etc seem to be doing quite large downloads--- Yify also supplies most of its movies to Pirates so your also find it there. They made some great movies in the 90s- Tom Sizemore, Kilmer, and Voight (his best ever) were all impressive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceKadet Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 For those of you who still watch Disney+ releases, despite their despicable handling of Gina Carano, their latest, "The Book Of Boba Fett" is out. TBH, Boba is not one of my most favorite characters in the Star Wars universe, don't really understand why they make the series on him, but I'll watch it and see how it develops. However, Ming-Na Wen is also in it and she's one of my favorite action characters, so she might save the story a bit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
