Louis Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I mentioned it in the 'grind' thread because of the number of trailers of other films, but I watched The Raid 2 recently. It was incredible. I loved every minute of it. Directed and written by an Evertonian to boot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg6IiGjJyM4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was dubbed though, didn't know if it was meant to be or not aha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Watched The Flash pilot last night! It was good, felt somewhat rushed, pacing was a little off but I expected it because the Pilot needed to set things up straight away. Some bits didn't quite work but all in all, pretty good. I watched the 'original' presentation pilot, so I don't know whether the broadcast version will be more stretched out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Thought tonight's Doctor Who was very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Agents of SHEILD - worth watching? We gave up after 3 episodes because the TV Box didnt record a few, but wondering if its supposed to help setup for the upcoming films?

We gave up after 3 episodes because the TV Box didnt record a few, but wondering if its supposed to help setup for the upcoming films? I thought the first few episodes were pretty shite, but once it came back after the mid-season break it was like they'd sacked all the writers and got new ones in because it was so much better.

Ok, so worth persevering with then. Any idea if it will be a link between the films? I know there were the occasional references but is there anything major?

Lowensda Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 What Mark said, after the break and Cap America 2, it got a lot better. Hope it holds up for season 2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Anyone going to be watching The Leftovers that starts tonight? Or The Strain and Legends that start tomorrow night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Me to all three! Matt, I found a film you'd like: WolfCop.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Me to all three! Hopefully they'll be good. I'll give them a few episodes before deciding whether to stick with them or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Introduced the wife to The Usual Suspects, found some interesting facts.... 1. Who directed it? 2. How long did it take to complete? 3. How much did it cost? Bare in mind this is coming up to 20 years old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Louis - what did you make of The Leftovers? At times I was wondering wtf was going on but I thought it was a pretty good opening episode. Not too sure if I'll like The Strain tonight but I've got good feeling about Legends.

Louis Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 I haven't got around to the Leftovers or Legends yet. I kind of like The Strain but I couldn't be doing with the 'son of Eph' storyline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of like The Strain but I couldn't be doing with the 'son of Eph' storyline. I really enjoyed Legends, but as I expected I wasn't too sure whether I liked The Strain or not and will have to give it another 2 or 3 episodes before deciding whether to carry on with it or not.

Louis Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Of the three, I liked The Strain the most. The Leftovers was a little higgledy-piggledy but I'll watch the second episode. I'm not quite sure what's going on with Legends tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Watched Marvelous on the BBC tonight, and it was exactly that. Brilliant TV, well produced and incredibly charming. Loved it. Highly recommended! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Watched Marvelous on the BBC tonight, and it was exactly that. Brilliant TV, well produced and incredibly charming. Loved it. Highly recommended! That's the thing about the guy who became (among many other things) Stoke City kit man right? Seen previews/write-ups and plan to watch it very soon.

Lowensda Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Also watched Agents of Shield, season 2 pilot.... Now that's what I'm talking about!!! That's how I hoped Agents of Shield would be! It started getting there at the end of Season 1, so I hoped it carries on and it does. No more messing about. Straight in there. There's Hydra (1945), Agent Carter, there's super powers, there's talk of suicide, there's an arm cut off, there's theft of militaty equipment, theres mental health issues, theres new characters, there's loads of little details that make you question bits you've seen before and raises more. Best episode yet for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Watched Marvelous on the BBC tonight, and it was exactly that. Brilliant TV, well produced and incredibly charming. Loved it. Highly recommended! Watched it tonight, loved it also. Unique and very clever the way they did it; football scenes were largely dreadful (don't think they were ever intended to be accurate, just representative) but it didn't matter a bit.

MikeO Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 New series of QI and Have I Got News For You started tonight (last night looking at the time). Good news. The need to get up for F1 qualifying in seven hours time is less good news; but I'll cope . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
