There's a new Gladiator film out?JamJar wrote: Mon Nov 18, 2024 9:07 am Went to see Gladiator 2 .... literally jumps the shark .... if you like the first one then avoid this.
No, I'd never heard of it either. ThanksKungFooBob wrote: Mon Nov 18, 2024 9:04 pm Am I the last person to find out about Tubi?
It's a free streaming service, there's some mainstream stuff, but also a fuck ton of B movie bollocks.
I might watch this at some point.

We've watched the first two episodes, and enjoyed it immensely. Quite apart from the pukka acting, the costumes and sets really take you back to the 1920s. I love the fact that it starts right on the cusp of the volstead (prohibition) act coming into force.Count Steer wrote: Wed Nov 13, 2024 7:28 amOverall, it's excellent. As ever, when series go on for a while, one or two seasons are a bitDidge wrote: Mon Nov 11, 2024 10:19 am BOARDWALK EMPIRE
Over time, I've seen a fair few clips from this series, and so when I saw the complete Blu-Ray box set selling on Amazon for less than the DVD set, I bought it.
Not started it yet, but I'm really looking forward to doing so.![]()
but still watchable. Enjoy your 'Nucky'.

PS Stephen Graham as Al Capone was an unusual, but inspired, bit of casting but Steve Buscemi is colossal.![]()
PPS Anyone looking for a boxed set that may have got under the radar, have a gander at Carnivàle.

Yep! We watched that a little while back. Brilliant, and spoilt only by the fact that they had an Asian actress as a police officer. Producers of period dramas that shoe-horn in a POC just to show how 'inclusive' and right-on they are, need a good slap. Boils my piss.Taipan wrote: Sat Nov 23, 2024 8:04 pm Wicked Little Letters. Strange but very funny in places. Brilliant performances from all the cast. 9/10
Just finished Season 2…..wasn’t sure I wanted to watch the last episode knowing that, that’s it, no more.MingtheMerciless wrote: Sat Nov 09, 2024 9:30 pm Arcane , season 2 , first two episodes…….bloody brilliant
Watched it last night, kinda brilliant in a very odd way! But yes I thoroughly enjoyed it and proper lol'd at some of Charles quips!DefTrap wrote: Wed Nov 13, 2024 4:30 pm Film (available on Prime at the moment): Brian & Charles
Sweet film about a man who lives on his own in a remote farm in Wales - he's always inventing things, and one day he builds himself a robot, Charles.
Really interesting dynamic between this odd man and his odder companion. In a way it's very much about oddness, loneliness and Charles is sort a metaphor for a needy child or elderly relative.
I really enjoyed it.
There's a short (that the film was expanded from) on YouTube.
Can't find it. When was it on?Taipan wrote: Mon Dec 02, 2024 4:09 pm Ended up watching Coleen Rooney; The Real Wagatha Story on ITV. Obviously I knew of this but didn't really get what it as all about nor bothered to look until the wife put this on.
Its a 3 part story that could have easily been summarised in one, but I still watched it as it showed how she met Wayne and how their lives changed with his growing success etc and just how much money they have!! The main part showed what nasty piece of work the Vardy woman and her PR team are and just what the desperation for fame and the limelight does to people.![]()
It's on Disney Plus, not ITV.Yorick wrote: Mon Dec 02, 2024 5:45 pmCan't find it. When was it on?Taipan wrote: Mon Dec 02, 2024 4:09 pm Ended up watching Coleen Rooney; The Real Wagatha Story on ITV.
