Good films you've seen recently....

[jay-vtr]

as the title suggests.... what are some good films you have all seen lately?

[chimnehp0ts]

All new films I can see looks terrible from the trailers, that combined with work means the last films I enjoyed was "the conjuring"

[SimpleJoee]

Only recently watched 'Wolf of Wall Street'. It was fucking hirarious.

[Mickswan]

Dallas Buyers Club
Wolf of Wall Street
Godzilla (not that good, but not bad)
Captain America
Jack Ryan

Been some good series on tv too, if your into series watch True Detective.

[jay-vtr]

I watched wolf of wall street the other day too Simplejoee .... you are right there mate, cracked me up

[SimpleJoee]

I watched wolf of wall street the other day too Simplejoee .... you are right there mate, cracked me up

I surprisingly didn't find it dragged too much either considering it's what 3 hours or so?

[Scott-jarvis]

300; Rise of the Empire - That's was Brilliant
Raid 2 - Was Awesome, starts slow but Steam Trains when it gets going
Bad Neighbours - Was Pretty enjoyable and funny
Godzilla - As Above Not Brilliant, but not Rubbish

[white_vts_boy]

Only recently watched 'Wolf of Wall Street'. It was fucking hirarious.

hirarious?

[griff_106]

I'm not a film fan in general, but I watched Harry Brown recently - such a good movie! Michael Caine is an absolute legend IMO :y:

[L33h]

I thought the wolf of wall street was extremely over rated! Was funny at times but overall I didn't think it was good and it was too long

[matt_vtr_15a]

Watching wolf of wall street this weekend along with godzilla and bad neighbours as well as generation iron as i havn't seen that yet either.

Absolute raping the new android tv box!

What's the script with that Matt? Been thinking about one but not really looked into it. Is it jail broken? What do you get and how much?

[Stissy]

Wolf of Wall Street - fucking banging film
Filth - another banging film
21 Jump Street - wank

[matt_vtr_15a]

What's the script with that Matt? Been thinking about one but not really looked into it. Is it jail broken? What do you get and how much?

Yes it's basically a jail broken android tv box thing running xbmc. I'm not massively clued up on them, a friend got one and was impressed so I bought one, since then 2 othrr guys in the office have bought one.

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/261238326596?cmd=VIDESC

They vary in price and you can get them cheaper but thrre are a lot of cheap imitations about, buy cheap buy twice and all that. As per link I paid £70 for mine as they develop their own apps, offer support and it has a full system restore etc. And there is no subscription just your internet connection.

you can stream anything... live sports, boxsets currently in america but not england for instance, any international tv, movies in cinema etc. and even 3d movies and endless porn etc.

Watching the frotch fight on mine with a few friends this weekend also, and I watch a lot of ufc and will lend it my little cousin for instance if he wants to watch a ppv gay ass wrestling special or something.

[Brettles1986]

The box you want is Airbox Spain.

It's £300 and then after a year you pay about £60 a year. You get all the sports channels, PPV and there is also a direct link to a massive film streaming archive.

Why when you can get one for £70 that does the same job with no subscription?

Fuck it, bought one. I'm sure I'll get £70 worth.

[Brettles1986]

Can you get all the sports channels on them?

[matt_vtr_15a]

Can you get all the sports channels on them?

Yeah, lists all live matches basically and take your pick.

I'm watching Froch v Groves on it tomorrow.

[Connorsaxo]

Its not new but i watvhed real steel the 9ther day, a really good watch

[Brettles1986]

Yeah, lists all live matches basically and take your pick.

I'm watching Froch v Groves on it tomorrow.

Awesome I may have to purchase one myself. I assume it's internet driven?

[matt_vtr_15a]

yes mate, I just stream everything wirelessly and had no issues whatsoever whilst using sky broadband.

Even streams HD movies no issues :y:

Awesome I may have to purchase one myself. I assume it's internet driven?

[0rang3peel]

Kellys heroes... best film ever

[Manu]

^^^ one rare instance of me agreeing with Mr Peel.

T2 extended cut for me yesterday. One of the few films I bought again and again on vhs, then dvd, then directors cut dvd, then limited edition extended cut dvd, then extended cut bluray.

Blade Runner tonight.

[Gabbastard]

If you can understand French, or dont mind subtitles, try and get a hold of La Haine or Irreversible. Both magic films.

[Manu]

Putain Vince tu fais quoi la?

I'll add Man bites Dog to that.

[Mickswan]

Kellys heroes... best film ever

Agreed!

[CorsaDestroyer]

City of god, it's subtitled as it's in Portuguese but it's the best film I've seen in ages!

[0rang3peel]

Ordered one this morning, should be here in the morning so I can watch the fight tomorrow.

[Stevie_Talent]

Well I was a bit sad and watched a film from my childhood and still enjoyed it just as much :D does anyone remember...

Flight of the navigator?? lol

Compliance :)

[L33h]

Im ganna bump this back up.

Any good ones recently? I'm not going out tonight cos I'm extremely hungover so I'm going to sit by myself like a complete looser and watch some films

[MuZiZZle]

The boy with the cuckoo clock heart

you'll cry, and not from your penis

[L33h]

What? Cry cos I've just wasted 2 hours of my life watching a shit cartoon? lol

[MuZiZZle]

are you ginger? you soulless cunt?

[L33h]

No I'm just a soulless cunt tbh. Also, I need a shit

[MuZiZZle]

I had to got to McDonalds at like 8:30am for an emergency poo

[L33h]

Fuck it am goin for a couple of pints

[stevo67]

hirarious?

Are you from china mr white boy?:drink:

[smiith]

If you download films, there are 1080p versions of need for speed, captain america 2, amazing spiderman 2, and divergence out.. They are all really good films

[MuZiZZle]

Vcdquality.com will tell you what's out on the scene

[0rang3peel]

Bump -

Yesterday I watched the raid redemption, I've been meaning to watch it for ages....

if you like action/martial arts etc unbelievably good film, get on it!

[smiith]

I downloaded and watched Edge of Tomorrow yesterday, the new tom cruise film.. Was pretty decent.. Took a bit of getting into for the 1st half hour or so, working out what's happening, but then the story comes together and it's pretty decent!

[Mickswan]

Agreed, really good film. Probably best of the year so far for me.

Fury is out in October, should be really good. Watch the trailer.

[holdawayt]

I watched Open Grave yesterday - 6/10.
Decent plot and it kept me interested.

Edge of tomorrow - 8/10
Interesting concept and well executed. Not normally a fan of Midget Cruise but I enjoyed this.

The Jacket - 8/10
Kiera Knightly is sexy. Film is really good too, but I just really fucking like Knightly.

[kizmo22]

I watched frozen recently :)

Also watched "12 years a slave". that was a good film, along with "the grand budapest hotel"!

[smiith]

12 years a slave pissed me off, purely because it took an oscar away from di caprio, for the wolf of wall street... Purely because people thought they should vote for 12 years a slave, rather than what they wanted to vote for

[L33h]

I got bored of 12 years a slave tbh. Ended up turning it off near the end.

Wolf of wall street wasnt that good either

[L33h]

Need a film for tonight cos I'm being a boring bastard and staying in. Can't wait for payday :/

[0rang3peel]

watched non stop fairly recently, 5/10 so average only held together because of liam neeson

[L33h]

Aye I watched that a while ago and thought it was pritty decent tbh

[0rang3peel]

Can't bloody remember any films I've watched recently, watching the walking dead, legends & the second season of the blacklist though all of which are pretty good

[L33h]

I was goin to watch that Lucy that's came out recently but my brother says its bit shit haha

[Brettles1986]

I was goin to watch that Lucy that's came out recently but my brother says its bit shit haha

It looked really good in the trailer but tbh the film was a bit poo. It felt like it was really rushed.

[L33h]

[Mickswan]

The equaliser if you want to see a slightly less bad ass version of man on fire

[L33h]

The equaliser if you want to see a slightly less bad ass version of man on fire

Sounds good to me mate. Man on fire is a wicked film :y:

[Giraffe]

Lucy was fucking awful, I fell asleep.

Gone Girl is really good. Was very impressed and managed to stay awake!

[dswhittle89]

have to say only just seen life of pi, awesome!!!!!

[mattknight1984]

Watched 'sex tape' with Cameron Diaz last night. Pretty good, she looks so good for her age too!

[dswhittle89]

Watched 'sex tape' with Cameron Diaz last night. Pretty good, she looks so good for her age too!

that film is unreal. sorry, Diaz is!!!

[L33h]

The Equilizer. 8.5/10. Definitely worth a watch

[marcusd]

As above jus watched it quite good. But on the other hand gone girl is truly amazing. Starts off slow then boom you can't turn it off.

[L33h]

As above jus watched it quite good. But on the other hand gone girl is truly amazing. Starts off slow then boom you can't turn it off.

I'm literally watching that now haha :y:

[Giraffe]

Gone girl was good like, if only for "twincest".

Interstellar was really good I thought, let down by the obvious twists. Music really made it something special.

[Mickswan]

Equaliser
Fury
Imitation Game
Hobbit

[L33h]

Yea Fury was good, haven't seen The Hobbit yet tho

[marcusd]

If you truly want a fucked up mind fuck of a film find predestination with ethan hawke i watched it twice and still hard to get to grips with and don't even start on the amount of questions the Mrs had

[0rang3peel]

Fury was good!!!?? I honestly thought it was the biggest "fuck yeah america" pile of shit I've ever seen. That scene at the end in the sherman.. lost for words at how ridiculous that was.

I really hoped it would go straight into my ww2 classics list but it was waankkkk

[L33h]

It was a true story wasn't it? All american films are like yeahhhhhhhhh amaericaaaaaaaaa!.... Wankers

[sexysaxo_dan]

everyone needs to see Fury. Literally the best film I've ever seen! Recently i saw Interstellar though. Jesus. 3 hours of 'what the fucking shit is going on'.

[L33h]

It's not that good like haha

[stevo67]

Yeah a friend of mine warned that interstellar was a long film,not one for me then i lose interest pretty quick.:drink:

[Mickswan]

Interstellar was good, bit long and sometimes boring in place but as a whole good. Effects were amazing!

[0rang3peel]

It was a true story wasn't it? All american films are like yeahhhhhhhhh amaericaaaaaaaaa!.... Wankers

It was based on loads of stories from different people I think, most ww2 films generally are I just thought it terrible ha. I recently rewatched band of brothers so after seeing that... everythings shit tbh

[matt_vtr_15a]

had a movie binge over weekend watched fury and equaliser, would recommend equaliser over fury...

Also watched lucy, WTF is that film? not what I expected at all

[L33h]

Never saw band of brothers I'll have to give it a watch. I love world war 2 stuff it really interests me. I hated history at school, I never even went but now I'm older it interests me lol.

[L33h]

The trailer for Lucy and the concept looked good but it's ment to be shite haha

i just couldn't get my head round the whole idea of it. And when he goes into the you know what at then end and sees you know who in so many different ways, thats when i fully realised that i had made a bad film choice. Plus matt damon is old as fuck looking now.

[Mickswan]

The whole paradox thing is a bit mental. I did think the robots were good though. Basic not all singing.

Are you just stupid like? If you can tie shoe laces then you can easily understand interstellar.


Matt, Lucy was terrible. I fell asleep twice and it was just utter shit.

[holdawayt]

Didn't mind Fury, yes it was a bit "murica" but they stuck to the confirmed body count in the film, so everyone you see in the film dying actually happened (and probably a few more unconfirmed).

Not so much a film but I'm really enjoying watching Orange is the new black on Netflix. Angry lesbians with their boobs out - what's not to like?

The Chernobyl Diaries was a decent concept for a zombie-esque thriller but it didn't really pull through. Lots of cheap scares.

Anyone seen As above, So below yet? Really keen to give that a watch.

[MuZiZZle]

I saw the new Tron at the weekend, it was pretty good

[Brettles1986]

I watched Chernobyl Diaries a long time ago. Thought it was pretty crap tbh which disappointed me as I find Chernobyl really interesting.

Yeah I've seen it, another of those movies that was actually pretty rubbish tbh but having said that you liked the above so you may well enjoy it.

[jbrady72]

Chernobyl diaries is good I thought but was just another generic scary film really.
The new Sweeney film is awesome, I love it. Not many people seem to like it but I do!

Ah, it was a neutral review. I didn't enjoy it personally but as a cheap zombie scare it wasn't the worst. Shame As Above isn't that great. Seemed like an interesting concept.

[0rang3peel]

It's not a film and by all means not new but I'm watching "it's always sunny in Philadelphia" seriously funny give it a look, danny de vito is brilliant

[Dany4494]

Lets be cops had me in stiches so funny !!

[0rang3peel]

bit of a bump, anyone seen anything decent? I was bored as fuck yesterday & decided to watch the interview, it was alright certainly enjoyable solid 7/10.

I'm really looking forward to "american sniper" hoping a screener is available to download soon.

[L33h]

[0rang3peel]

I thought it would be just like you said but it's directed by Clint Eastwood so I think it'll be good!

I fear you may have downloaded the same screener as me yesterday, try & play it... it'll cut out :(

[L33h]

Pretty much straight away, give it a shot let me know because if it works I'm going to download the one you've got.

I've got the SHAKEiT copy. Skipped through it there and it seems alright. The copy isn't too good tho by the looks of it. There's a AC3-EVO copy out as well but I haven't tried that one.

[matt_vtr_15a]

On a movie binge as i've slipped a disc and trapped a nerve.

The interview.

Slowest start to a movie i've ever seen, few funny bits as it warms up but then goes downhill again and just gets real stupid. Wouldn't watch it again or recommend it apart from saying you've watched it. My mate found it funny though, so each to their own.

American Sniper & Lone Survivor

Never watched lone survivor, kind of missed it on sky etc. so gave it a watch on recommendation.

Both Very good imo.

[wullvfr]

Yeah I enjoyed lone survivor,good watch!

Pain and gain was a good watch,funny as fook!

[iVTR]

Recently the best couple of films I've seen on netflix are:

The Iceman. A true story based on a contract killer, he killed over 200 people and led a secret life with his family. Seriously awesome film, I then watched his actual interviews on youtube too, found it very interesting.

The other one worth a watch was The inevitable defeat of mister and pete.

:y:

Feel your pain Matt, I slipped two and had to have the discs removed and my spine fused. Agony!!

Back on track though, Gone Girl is pretty good. Again the interview, it's not great but it's funny to see what North Korea is shitting itself about.

Of course the final Hobbit. Exodus was a bit shit as I was expecting better but film fans will probably enjoy it.

I personally thought the iceman was shite. Ive read the book and that was 10x better! Have a look for it

I think i spoilt gone girl for myself cos i figured it out straight away haha

[0rang3peel]

I watched american sniper in the end , I was really disappointed it was just 'ok'

Last night I watched the imitation game which is really good, best film I've watched in sometime

[Manu]

recent ones I sen and enjoyed..

Bury my heart at wounded knee (how American indians were robbed of their land)

The eye (the original, not the american half arsed remake)

No country for old men

City of life and death

Fell asleep twice watching the guardians of the galaxy.

[0rang3peel]

recent ones I sen and enjoyed..


No country for old men

City of life and death



I have both of them on blu ray, both great films!

[Manu]

indeed, both great.

[matt_vtr_15a]

Watched American Sniper last night, after wanting to watch it for a while.

Very disappointed, the guy himself it was about deserved much better imo. It wasn't a patch on lone survivor.

Quite a shame as it could of been soo much better.

I thought so too, my bloody external hdd has broken inconveniencing me more than anything but now I've gotta redownload all the films I was planning on watching hmmphh.

Anyway last night I watched "Beyond the pines" it was quite good, 7/10.

[Brettles1986]

[0rang3peel]

Wasn't that on TV the night before?

Yeah that's why I watched it, it was on film 4... I recorded it :y:

long film though, didn't initially realise and was knackered in the morning for work.

[pedromakarachi]

Best sniper film I've watched is 'Shooter' with Mark Wahlberg.

Other than that, for action I enjoy any of the Jeremy Bruckheimer films but Bad Boys 1 & 2 top it on that list.

Inspirational drama 'Boy in the Striped Pyjama's' is tough to beat (WW2 Jewish concentration camps)

Romcom(wifes agree's only for Jude Law) is 'The Holiday'

Proper head peck who's dunnit is 'Law Abiding Citizen' with Gerard Butler and Jaimie Foxx. favourite film by far

[Mickswan]

Gone Girl gets the thumbs up, weird but thumbs up.

[0rang3peel]

Best sniper film I've watched is 'Shooter' with Mark Wahlberg.


Better than enemy at the gates?

[Sam]

Better than enemy at the gates?
+1 for Enemy at the Gates being the best sniper film.

Watched both new Hurcules, preferred the version with the Rock.

[pedromakarachi]

Better than enemy at the gates?

Erm I have to conceed no to that. Shooter has the big bang hollywood feel to it compared to Enemy At The Gates which has that WW2 presence about it and huge tension created by the well written plot

[Ryancoyle]

Two guns was a good show. Thought it was quite funny.

[0rang3peel]

Watched lone survivor, thought it was good. 7/10 wound me up about the soldiers being shot like fuck and not dying though, reminded me of a video game where you've got like 500000hp

[Mickswan]

American Sniper was good I can see an Oscar for best film and actor

[0rang3peel]

has anyone watched 'birdman' yet? got that lined up for tonight

[L33h]

I watched it the other day. Thought it was shite tbh

[Giraffe]

Sniper films? Gotta be Liberty Stands Still doesn't it? Or Phonebooth?
trolling

[matt_vtr_15a]

American Sniper was good I can see an Oscar for best film and actor

I rate equaliser for actor and movie in higher regard personally. Sniper struck a chord due it being a true story about an incredible guy. Really don't think they did him justice, yet eceryone I know seems to be wanking off over it.

[deano_123]

Fury was pretty awesome, A walk among the tombstones was good too

[Brettles1986]

Fury was pretty awesome, A walk among the tombstones was good too

I didn't watch A Walk Among The Tombstones for any longer than 10 minutes as it bored me to tears. Shame really as I quite like Liam Neeson movies.

It's pretty much the same premise as Taken, I thought it was good

just saw yesterday, they did a Taken 3 apparently it's quite a turd of sorts

[deano_123]

just saw yesterday, they did a Taken 3 apparently it's quite a turd of sorts

Trailer looked it too

[Manu]

^^^lol, didn't even bother watching taken 2, first one was a bit of an investigation fantasy pisstake, only redeeming feature being the "i will find you and kill you" line of dialogue.

[jimmyboy]

The Maze Runner - shite, full of holes
Divergent - shite, too predictable
Interstellar - awesome, would like to watch again

[L33h]

I want to see interstallar but im waiting for a decent copy to come out

[sexysaxo_dan]

The Maze Runner - shite, full of holes
Divergent - shite, too predictable
Interstellar - awesome, would like to watch again

see now i thought interstellar was one big massive head fuck.

what is it with movies being 3 hours long nowadays? seems to be a trend among the movies atm


Personally the best movie I've seen is probably either Fury or The Interview.

Fury has brilliant actors involved, you get a sort of 'saving private ryan' vibe but in a really good way and i think the story is generally quite incising. Oh and some of it was filmed 10 minutes away from where i live;)

The Interview was just full of laughter and i would definitely watch it again

[L33h]

see now i thought interstellar was one big massive head fuck.

Not one to watch with a few cans then? haha

[holdawayt]

Just watched a film called Joe. It's on Netflix, starring Nicolas Cage.
I know the above doesn't bode well but it's a decent watch.

[Mickswan]

I rate equaliser for actor and movie in higher regard personally. Sniper struck a chord due it being a true story about an incredible guy. Really don't think they did him justice, yet eceryone I know seems to be wanking off over it.

Equaliser was good, but yet again Washington doesn't make shit films.

For sniper it was just the performance and directing. Plus I'm sure you'll agree that putting 40lb of muscle on was no easy task.

[0rang3peel]

I watched 'the theory of everything' last night, obviously an incredibly interesting story & certainly a potential oscar winning performance. Overall though despite the film being interesting it wasn't really my cup of tea 6/10.

I've got the equaliser ready to go (y)

[drka-drka]

Watched Gambler other week not what i thought it was going to be at all (comedy in my head) but it wasn't. but was still worth a watch

[0rang3peel]

So I've been off work on the sick for a few days, bit of a film fest.

Watched intersteller, I liked the idea and was enjoying it but then it just went a little bit mental, also it's so fucking long. 6/10

Also watched the equalizer which was great, denzel even in his old age is a bad ass. 8/10

Odd Thomas. Poor film but Addison Timlin is in it. :fcuk:

So I've been off work on the sick for a few days, bit of a film fest.

Did you not think the music in Interstellar was just fucking amazing? It's the only soundtrack I've ever actually bought, it just completely blew my mind how good it was.

Also, that Addison Timlin looks incredible.

[Mickswan]

I thought interstellar was shit hot, visuals were amazing!! Music was amazing, granted it'll not win oscars but it was amazing in IMAX!

On a side note, Foxcatcher isn't too bad. Worth watching!

I did but it's hans zimmer so it's bound to be good, I've got a few of his sound tracks, inception & shutter island come to mind!

Hans Zimmer is the God of soundtracks no doubt, but it was the organs and how powerful they were. I honestly expected it to be the highest grossing film of all time.

Just watched that. Dozens of Sony product placements for 2 hours, and sony licensed music throughout. Sony flat screens, sony monitors, sony tablets, sony vaios, and last but not least: every single character in this film owns a black experia z3, Denzel got the whole experia range on a table at some point. I got increasingly tired of having the sony logo shoved in my eyeballs every 2 minutes from beginning to the very end. And towards the end when they kill the power, the coca cola vending machine stays on. Come on.

Could have been a great film, instead I felt like I watched a 2 hours commercial, with massive plot holes. If nicolas cage or the rock had the role instead of Washington, it would have been a complete snooze fest. I ended up surprised not to see a couple of playstations in there. 3/10


If you want to see a genuinely badass russian bad guys movie, go watch "a history of violence" instead.

meh product placement is the way of the world these days, didn't really bother me. I've seen a history of violence & yeah it's good. If you like Russian mob style films, I recommend Eastern Promises! :y:

[Manu]

I like genuine films, not a made up world supposedly in Boston where every single character owns the exact same phone, which at some point even gets the sergio leone close up and the sony logo becoming a character outside of the story, I am glad not every film maker follows sonys' "way of the world" because that's not how you do a movie. With special appearances from pringles, new balance (surprise surprise, NB is based in Brighton, MA, meaning Boston) and colgate no less. I believe that would be because sony does not make crisps, running shoes or toothpaste.

Shame considering Director Fuqua and Washington previously made "Training day", great film with memorable dialogue. King kong ain't got shit on me etc.

I rank that turd as second just behind Irobot for being a commercial in disguise, with killing scenes plucked out of the saw franchise and often inconsistent. Boring as fuck, I forced myself to watch the end, and my palm did hit my face when the last scene is washington closing his vaio laptop. Fuck you sony.

I have Eastern promises too, great film :y:




Hans Zimmer is the God of soundtracks no doubt,

Keep in mind he has a little army of composers behind him after he ended up being head of Dreamworks' music department. Including Harry Gregson Williams, who has made some obvious work on Inception while Zimmer got the credit (some of the music in there sounds very "similar" to that off of metal gear solid 3, which he also made). That said, he still did some awesome work in there as he did get some fat, really heavy orchestral work based on time stretched sounds.

He's good, well actually more than just good, but he got caught out a fewf times for nicking other peoples' compositions. Notably ripped a lot from Holst and finally admitted it after a case that dragged on for years. See "Mars (the bringer of war)" being simply copied, barely re-arranged and called the german battle in gladiator. Epic music, but when you start digging, he does not deserve all the credit.

Have you read the books? They're brilliant the film doesn't do them justice.

Also yes I'm still alive, haven't been on for a couple of weeks lol

Watched Interstellar on saturday night, Really enjoyed it

[Manu]

The last stand :homme:

You know you're watching a terrible film when knoxville steals arnie's show.

Now on the pedantic side, the bad guy drives a Camaro Zr1, supercharged 6.2l engine modified to push 1000 bhp. I am not sure how he managed to drive flat out all night AND the next morning without running out of petrol. I mean, that thing must do about half a mpg, so he must have a 200 gallons tank hidden somewhere. Rams it into ahnold's (slower so not sure how he kept up) Zl1 and barely a scratch.


tuuuuuuuuuurd

The good, the bad, the ugly, the happening, the disneyland.

Not really film related but I watched the first episode of 'better call saul' yesterday, the breaking bad spin-off. Thought it was good!

[matt_vtr_15a]

Seemed quite good, especially to say it's the first episode and there is a lot of plot set-up to get going etc.

Glad a few of the Breaking Bad characters are being tied into it to, pretty sure I read somewhere that critics rate it in higher regard than breaking bad. I'll reserve judgement on that but if it's on par or not far off then i'll be happy to see it thru :y:

[Dano]

Watched better call Saul last night and found my self getting annoyed with the plot set ups! I don't have the patience! I enjoyed the Breaking bad style and no doubt the following episodes will be even more awesome.. Excited to see what happens next anyway :)

[Jizanthapus]

I've watched the first 2 episodes and it seems average to be honest! I'm going to stick with it though as I'm sure it'll get better. I hope!

I've watched the first two now, I really liked it. Whether that's due to the fact there's not much else decent on at the moment I'm not sure.

Also watched the new walking dead which I thought was garbage, if it doesn't pick up I'll probably stop watching it.

"the blacklist" is back on soon, thought that was decent

[Giraffe]

I actually fell asleep watching the first episode of Better Call Saul... Think I'll have to rewatch it - it did seem very slow!

Think the second episode was better than the first.

Tried to download that 'fortitude' because I don't have sky atlantic, the only episode I could find had an encoding issue which meant you could only play it on windows media player, so I fucked it off as I wanted to watch it on my big tv.

I'm really into the walking dead at the mo, but I've only just finished season 3. Which season is the new one, 5?

[0rang3peel]

Yeah, it's on 5 now. Season 3 was really good I loved it. Season 4 which your going onto is also really good, just season 5 for me so far has been really boring.

[Jizanthapus]

Yeah, it's on 5 now. Season 3 was really good I loved it. Season 4 which your going onto is also really good, just season 5 for me so far has been really boring.

Cool, well I've watched it on Amazon instant video but they've only got 1, 2 and 3. I enjoyed season 3, it just didn't really end on a cliffhanger. I'll probably buy season 4 at somepoint though!

I'm not usually a fan of zombie shit but there's something about it I like.

[griff_106]

I saw Ted for the first time the other day on Channel 4 IIRC... it was fucking hilarious. Can't wait for Ted 2 to come out now! :)

[sri_130]

The guest (2014). Really enjoyed that (soundtrack is great too).
8/10
Surprised to see the lead was from Downtown Abbey. It got straight into the film, enough open questions left for you to fill in and turns into an 80's slasher. Great low budget mashup.

[Samuel]

as the title suggests.... what are some good films you have all seen lately?

The guest

Wild card (release march)

22 Jump street

All very good. Wild card and The guest were amazing.

I thought wild card was a bunch of bollocks. Good fx on the fight scenes but Jason Statham is the only reason i kept watching.

Gay boy.

[0rang3peel]

I downloaded wild card because of this thread, as soon as I saw it had Jason I can't act statham in it I turned it off and deleted it

[Samuel]

It's a love hate actor of course. And if you don't like gambling/action you probably wont like wild card.
