Well it's funny how these things happen, but I just turned on the TV to watch some Melbourne Cup day action, and there on Foxtel's TCM channel is "5 Million Years to Earth" (aka Quatermass and the Pit)!  Guess which won out for my viewing pleasure :-)

Well now Hardtack it really is a small world !!

The title 5 Million years to earth really got me in a s a kid, When I realised it was a trilogy of Quatermass series I jumped onto my local and guess what//!!

I picked up a "Pristine Copy" from good ol JB HI FI for a measley $ 15.00 BARGAIN !! 

Loved watching it again several times now on surround sound system!!!

Another snippert for you!! Get hold of a movie called "A night to remember" a really good retelleing of the Titanic story.

Finally, I have sourced the old Crawford productions "Homicide" & Division 4" Jys go to website $ 50.00 each for state of the art good ol Aussie Drama!

At your service Hardtack Cheers "Fence"

His latest movie was nothing short of trash. 

(Tarantino)

I really enjoyed it. The first half was a bit slow, but after the interval it was awesome.

Oh and another one for the list I had forgotten about: 'Man Bites Dog'. Horrible. Just horrible and redundant.

Raging bullshi  .excuse to show violence

And what else is boxing if not violence at its most primal... I think Raging Bull is a brilliant piece of film making and one of De Niro's finest moments.

What is the deal these days with De Niro ?

From being "the" man as far as acting is concerned he is now making some absolute stinkers.

Yeah, it seems to happen to a lot of them... De Niro, Depp, Steve Martin, Oldman etc.  Lure of the easy $ maybe?

Shyte movies being all too common, and the small movies doing original things not having the budget for the names above.

Yeah I think it is really starting to swing that way now, with netflix and such, people are wanting more than 2 hrs of entertainment from 1 stroy line.

Never seen it EH but there again I rarely watch commercial TV (unless it's sport)

I much preferred 'Take Care with Graham Kerr'  ... which was a cooking show on the ABC that went for less than 5 minutes (which is about as long as a cooking show should go for) :ph34r:

Ah ... so that's what you meant - makes sense now.  I'd completely forgotten about him.  I've edited that post.  Take a look.

So anyway - does 'The Shape of Water' shape up as the worst movie to win best picture at the Oscars?  I haven't seen it but I know a few that have and they didn't care for it.  'The Artist' is another vying for top honours in that category (worst movie to win best picture)

I will get around to watching 'The Shape of Water' regardless.

I don’t think anything will ever beat ‘Shakespeare In Love’ in that category’

I watched The Shape of Water on my flight to Taipei on Tuesday... I thought it was brilliant.

Ok then ... as stated previously,  I will be watching the film and I'll make my own evaluation then.  Obviously the film isn't for everyone but we could be talking about any film of any genre. 

I'll probably like it as opposed to those who don't care for it ... I still haven't seen 'The Artist' either but that film also received mixed reviews.

The worst movie I have ever seen (and didn't finish) was Hudson Hawk.  It starred, and I use the term loosely, Bruce Willis and Andie MacDowell.

Truly horrible.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
