Watching... anything I can find with R R in it...
Rest in peace.

"Sneakers" and "A River Runs Through it" are on tonight's playlist for sure.

R.I.P Robert Redford

 

[Nacho Libre]

I remember him mostly from The Sting, which we watched on Saturdays in my dad's 8 mm projector, as shortened versions of movies were sold in that format back in the day before tapes.

I'm surprised he didn't jumped into the early blockbuster era that started from the late 70s, but his dedication was pointed at independent cinema and other endeavors, I guess.

I know he was in Winter Soldier, but at that point it's just for a check, let's be real. I don't begrudge that, he was fine.

Oh, by the way I did watch The Horse Whisperer and it was a really lousy date movie... But I will let it pass.

I'd like to watch Lilo and Stitch, the real movie. Not the animated one from 2002.

Speed Racer (2008) again. Still a better Cars than Cars in my book.

Started watching Terminal List: Dark Wolf. It's pretty good. I liked the original better. Also watching Countdown with the wife. Not a bad show. Has your typical action / comedy and drama. Both shows so far are a solid 6 or 7 out of 10.

Only you Geoff, only you...

86, fit and well and happy to share stories about those she worked with.
Mike and Kenneth and Annette worked hard to get the humour into the R&H scripts.
Hated working with Patrick McGoohan on The Prisoner (as did everyone who worked on that episode!). But because of the animosity looking back she thinks it's a good performance (I agree).
The Saint - she did 5 episodes so she obviously got on with Roger Moore but didn't say much about him.
The Persuaders - Tony Curtis was, a bit surprisingly, very serious about acting and would turn off his "persona" during shooting. But then, would switch it back on afterwards.
The Avengers and The New Avengers - described Patrick Macnee as "a lovely man".

Forgot to add...
I went over to Jeannie's place later on, but she wasn't there:

Almost got run over and became a ghost

And she wasn't at Geoff's flat either:

Dear all,

Sorry for the double post, but I'm stopping, crouching down (grimace) and asking...


The subject matter is too important for this first ever mental health documentary in Britain not to get made.

Personally, I can stretch to one of those tasteful AI self-portraits


Although the £1,000 for the name drop is tempting.

We've got to get this thing made and out before GTA VI.

Yours faithfully,
Hugh Janus.

The cartoons and TV shows nowadays suck, well not all of them... what are some of your favorite shows guys?

Bones is my comfort show. I've been watching modern anime (Demon Slayer, Dan da Dan, Sakamoto Days). Of the modern shows, lately I enjoyed Wednesday, and I'll continue with Alien Earth. In miniseries format Band of Brothers is my GOAT, but I've enjoyed many others. Of reality shows, I enjoy cooking shows like MasterChef.

Kate McKinnon on fire. LANGUAGE WARNING

 

[ShonnDaylee]

I'm a sucker for a Pink Floyd documentary, especially when it comes to one of the most important albums of the 70's.

 

[Nacho Libre]

Well, I discovered Hacks (HBO Max) and I'm binge watching right now.

As today is the 60th anniversary of the first broadcast of Thunderbirds, happy anniversary in

(Noting all the comments on the video from Japan, Chile, New Zealand... truly a global phenomenon)

 

[Wilsonson]

Started the final season of the What we do in the shadows series. Pretty funny and just like the original Taika Waititi film just something different. I guess this could be one of those love it or hate it shows.

Couldn't wait for Friday, so I decided to make my own photo tribute

According to the cafe "Olive's" at the bottom of Elm Hill filming took place around March/April this year. They play good music in there 👍

How are you?

September recap

VERY weak showing for me this month.

BUT LOOK AT THOSE AMAZING TITLES!

I was nearly going to watch Locked last night.

 

[ShonnDaylee]

That is a rough group of films. I considered watching 28 Years Later, but obviously not enough to follow through with it.

I was nearly going to watch Locked last night.

I started watching it on the plane fide from Denver to Heathrow. Premis is he gets locked in a vehicle while trying to steal it. I fell asleep for the majority of the middle. Next thing I know,

(It doesn't technically give anything away but I'll spoiler it anyway).

Anthony Hopkins is in the vehicle with him and it's on fire.

I think I might have missed some things.

That is a rough group of films.

Short of trying to get through the 1001 movie list, there's absolutely no rhyme or reason to what I decided to watch.

I considered watching 28 Years Later, but obviously not enough to follow through with it.

It was... okay. As much as I've tried to like the 28 series, they just don't really do it for me.

I figured as much. I wasn't all that moved to check it out, really. 🤷‍♂️

Ohhhh. So, it’s like the original When a Stranger Calls meets the first Saw movie, on wheels.
