jump Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Series one was a hugely entertaining romp ; there a couple of huge flaws in it that if you can overlook, you'll probably enjoy it more. The last couple were probably the best, it kinda hit a crescendo. I've not seen the new one (forgot it was on) so I'll probably wait until all four have been shown and watch them in a marathon. I read that Idris is in discussions with Quentin Tarantino for some kind of remake / homeage to Django. Brilliant. It's currently between the guy that played Omar Little, Will Smith & Idris and apparently the studio is pushing for Will Smith and I really hope he doesn't get it as I wouldn't be able to take it seriously with Wild Wild West popping in my head all the time.

Rufus Gwertigan Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Anyone else caught the latest Spielberg production "Falling Skies". I know it was only the first episode but I am not that impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minute5072 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Anyone else caught the latest Spielberg production "Falling Skies". I know it was only the first episode but I am not that impressed. It was...ok. Not fantastic, but I'll give it time. I can see it being a bit like The Event last year, start watching it and waiting for something decent to happen, then nothing decent happened so I gave up on it.

Kowalski Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 The Kennedys. Much better than I thought it was going to be. The historical stuff is obviously much better than some of the frivolous nonsense. Particularly enjoyed last week's episode about the Cuban Missle Crisis.

LINK Saw this earlier, not too sure about it, not as excited as when fishbourne joined but I will see how he does. Hoping they can get someone in permanently rather than changing it every couple of seasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only managed about half the first one before i had to switch off. The dialogue was horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Monkey Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Don't think I'll ever tire of watching this Isn't that the little boy from Batman Begins? The one who talks to Batman when he's climbing a wall and then he gets stuck in the slums when the fear gas goes off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) New series of Curb Your Enthusiasm is showing in the US. Three episodes in, VERY funny. Last Sundays was the best so far. "Palestinian Chicken". Really good social commentary on the Palestine/Israel thing. Also watched the rest of season 7 of the Office. The Will Ferrell episodes are genius although they have jumped the shark a bit. Edited July 26, 2011 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scene with LD reading the instructions to the girl scout was probably one of the funniest scenes in the whole series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those relentless scenes where he doesn't let you go. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bilaSB_tAE I've not watched S08 E03 yet Its available from the usual sources.

sifi Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Its available from the usual sources. I have it, I just haven't watched it yet. Saving myself. In fact for most of my favoured television from the usual sources I like to build up two at a time, and then watch then back to back. Apart from Breaking Bad. Couldn't resist watching the first episode of the new series of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus Gwertigan Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 It's Falling Skies tonight for me. I am still not hooked into it yet. I enjoy the aliens killing things scenes but the endings are a little predictable, always ending with a father/son moment and some piano music in the background. Hopefully that kid will get his come uppance soon, the whining little brat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
