What wouldn't happen is someone running around after an arrow has skewered your guts, front to back, wildly firing a revolver with great accuracy, and killing more Indians. Lost me then.

Well all can say it is a film or TV series so anything goes. 

My question was how far away was the arrow fired at close range it can go in and out the other side of a person.

I just laugh when people say how authentic it is. At least Deadwood didn't take itself too seriously.

Yeah I guess just like anything people like films and TV stuff I don't and vice versa.

I'm waiting for something to come to Netflix in a story series.

Watching films which are bearable but have of late been watching old films again for a 2nd or 3rd time.

Nobody can say it isn't.  I'll ask the next 150 ish yr old cowboy I see ... they'll know.

 Superb British Detective series,pulls no punches

[biervoormij]

Oscar nominations for Best Picture

 

“Belfast”

 

“CODA”

 

“Don’t Look Up”

 

“Drive My Car"

 

“Dune”

 

“King Richard”

 

“Licorice Pizza”

 

“Nightmare Alley”

 

“The Power of the Dog”

 

“West Side Story”

 

Would you pick one of these movies as the best picture of 2022 or do you have another?

 

I have not seen “West Side Story”,  “Licorice Pizza”  or "Drive My Car" but if I had to pick one of these I think I would pick "King Richard". I don't really remember all the movies I have seen in 2022 but "Finch" is one I really enjoyed and do not see on the list of nominations.

Chelsea Detective

Episode one just released.

RAR

 

Looking at the clip, looks like another box ticker.

Summary: DI Max Arnold's lifestyle on a battered houseboat in Chelsea's Cheyne Walk contrasts sharply with the affluent elite whose crimes he helps solve alongside partner D.C. Priya Shamsie.

 

 

[Will27]

This is Going to Hurt.

RAR

 

New one from the Beeb has some decent reviews.

Summary: Set on labour ward with all its hilarity and heart-lifting highs but also its gut-wrenching lows, the show delivers a brutally honest depiction of life as a junior doctor on the wards, and the toll the job can take back home.

 

 

[userabcd]

See this morning on some websites, for anyone interested, and for fans of the Lee Child books, that the TV series "Reacher" is now available for watching.

 

Seems to have an initial good review rating as well.

Hope they dont make him out to be to poor---just to moor a boat in that street you need a few bob.

I am way out of touch with London now, but that street use to have houses belonging to Somerset Maugham--Kieth Richards brought that one- Ian Fleming-- Michael Bloomberg, lives there when he is not in New York. ... Laurence Oliver, --house, Now owned by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich--  Mick Jagger and Marianne Faithfull rented out Dracula author Bram Stoker's house  for years....George Best,house taken over by  Mick Fleetwood.....etc

Watching TV series from Norway - "Occupied" a series from 2015 and perhaps very relevant with the current situation over Ukraine and Russia

Sorry We Missed You -  2019

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8359816/

 

Hoping that self-employment through gig economy can solve their financial woes, a hard-up UK delivery driver and his wife struggling to raise a family end up trapped in the vicious circle of this modern-day form of labour exploitation.

These days I usually don't bother with emotional type films anymore. Am at the age where I just want to be entertained without lots of woke and deep emotional stuff. Give me good cowboy flick that I can just relax and simply just enjoy.

 

Having said that I got drawn into this movie and thought it was very good. A real reflection on family life in UK these days. (What happened to the nanny state I people keep talking about?)

 

Available on TVChaos and 133x and probably lots of other place too.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll have a look at that, and I see it was from the team who made the movie "I, Daniel Blake" which I thought was excellent, and a sad indictment of the way things are in the UK at the moment.

I've finally got round to watching Vera. I've watched 2 (of 4) episodes of season1. Seems pretty good to me. Worth a look IMHO, especially if you are from NE England, like I am. Only another 10 and a half seasons left to watch.

Enjoyed this in 2160.

 

Note to the woke-averse crowd, this film has a black man and a woman in positions of responsibility, but they are servants so that may keep the usual apoplexy to a minimum.

 

On Disney + but not here, yet.

Just watched and enjoyed it.

Didn't view it as a box ticker in any way, it fairly reflected the population of modern day London IMHO.

The only error being everyone living in nice houses/boats/apartments.

(None of which I could afford)

[The Hammer2021]

Allan Mustafa features  in a great new comedy from the team that brought us People Just Do Nothing called The Curse about a London gold heist gone wrong.
Mustafa plays a broke cafe owner, His partner from PJDN Chegwin plays a, dim-witted,  wanna be  gangster and Steve  The stoner Stamp from PJDN  a plays a happless security guard.
Just seeing the PJDN team back again is enough to bring a smile to my face. PJDN was a comedy series about a bunch of council house wasterells, would be grime artists and gangstas. It's filmed in a mockumentary style and is an excellent comedy series about a bunch of hopless guys led by MC Grindah with no self awareness and their pirate radio station Korrupt FM.
Their new comedy drama The Curse is normal drama comedy format  and brings talent from other shows include Murder in Successfulville

I really enjoyed People Just Do Nothing and watched it twice. If 'The Curse' is half as good it will be great.

If I could find the complete episodes with subs I'd give it a try, but without subs I might as well be watching it in Mandarin.

Just watched ep 6 very good story as usual ,mind you i was really suprised as a blck man is married to a white woman in it,now thats something you very rarely see in modern tv series????

Oh and the daughter is a lesbian,now how could i forget that,and of course the lesbian girlfriend is half cast with a white dad and black mum.

Now not sure if this is racist ,but i think there is a white man married to a white woman in it. Lol
