Let's have a films thread.

Recommended Posts

Too long to read right now for me but I'm gonna get through it in 40 bursts over a number of days. I bet I've only seen about 140 of them but I'll have a gleg on imdb and see which ones I haven't seen that tickle me fancy.

I sadly went through it in the Empire magazine, then put all the ones I hadn't seen onto an Excel spreadsheet. And have been working through ever since.

Sky Never Miss is a God send!

Tomorrow I'll put the list up alphabetically so you can all moan that 'your' film isn't there/high enough!

Ps. I voted in the list. Every one had to list their Top Ten films. Even top directors, producers, actors etc. Did it. But they weighted their votes. Shawshank would have been at 1 if not.

You don't need to!

A simple Ctrl+F is all that's needed! It's not too complicated (not sure how an equivalent function works on iPhones and the like, however).

Anchorman, Fight Club, Green Mile and Crash are all there. Therefore, Stan is happy :)

Watched this on Monday night on SyFy, probabaly the weirdest chuffing film I have ever seen, I'd say it's worth watching just to say you've seen it. They are supposed to be bringing out a sequel later this year and as weird as this film was I'm intrigued as to what the sequel will hold.

I'm sorry if my post was misleading, I'm well aware you're about my age - you and I are R1's target audience. Just I'm a pop culture retard and you have your finger on the pulse.

It wasn't a criticism.

Alright film buffs

I've gotta choose 3 Action Adventure films for my students to watch.

Die Hard's been omitted 'cause there's too much swearing so bear that in mind!

I want some good films please. Students are 15.

Going through a few of my films I'd suggest any of the following;

Air Force One

Equilibrium

Independence Day

Red Dawn

The Sentinal

The Rock

Toy Soldiers (1991)

V for Vendetta

Volcano

I think those are relatively free of swearing, I would advise you to check through though as I can't be 100% sure.
