If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Watched a film called White God at the weekend. Hungarian. Subtitled.

started off well enough and thought it was going to end being a schmaltzy affair. Yet in the last third or so it decided to go absolutely batshit mental. Fair play on it for doing so. Wouldn't say it's great but definitely worth a watch. Though people with an aversion to animals in distress may not want to watch (not actually in distress, but 'acting' like they are).

I have Nightcrawler here to watch. Recco'd by The General (who has a 100% hit rate to date) but poopooed by Burnden Paddock.

We shall see. ;)

Ahhhhhhhhhhh. Perhaps you were commenting on 'Lucy' then? Sorry. My misinterpretation.

I've got Nightcrawler to watch tonight, heard good things.
Watched it the other night, as someone bought it for Mrs BP's birthday. Started off ok and quickly descended into nonsense. Anyone want the DVD?

Tbh I don't get the attraction with Johansen either. Very average.

Right. It was Lucy that I was dissing. I can see where the confusion arose however.

Watched The Last Knights. Clive Owen and Morgan Freeman sounded promising. It wasn't. Don't bother.

And, just so you know (no spoilers), its the same core cast each week but playing different characters and each episode is set in house number 9, flat number 9, rail carriage number 9 etc etc.

Watched Apollo has fallen. Sort of "Die hard meets the Special Agents, meets North Korean terrorists". American presidents star in more films than Marylin Monroe ever did. Plenty action and "God bless the United States of America" :wink:

Do you mean Olympus Has Fallen, Tango? It's the biggest pile of contrite fecking shit and turdy bollocks that I've seen since Ocean's 12. With North Koreans becoming the new Germans/Vietnamese/Russians :roll:

Oh, I agree. So memorable I couldn't even remember the name, but hey, it caught you too!. :lol:

On a serious note, if you haven't seen it, watch The Imitation Game. Absolutely terrific film based on Alan Turing's story..Please don't miss this, it's brilliant.
Staggering acting from Benedict Cumberbatch and a great cast of British actors. Charles Dance, Mark Strong, Steven Waddington and Kiera Knightley etc,etc..

I thought Olympus Has Fallen was ok tbf. If you think that is shite, watch White House Down. Now that it is one of the biggest piles of shite that I have ever had the misfortune to start watching. I say start watching, as I gave up about 20 minutes in. Channing Tatum has to be one of the worst actors that I have ever had the misfortune to see!! On a par with Steven Seagal and Jason Statham, but he seems to believe his own hype.
