"ted fenton 7:28 Fri May 1 Think you’re about 5 years to late to put that on a 2020 thread Tedders. We’re now into May, and I cannot think of a 2020 film that I like yet. Jojo Rabbit was great, but is a 2019 film"

"I finally got round to watching the ZZ Top documentary: That little 'ol band from Texas, and really enjoyed it. Long legged girls, fast cars and rock'n'roll... what's not to like? Amazingly they've been playing for 50 years and this film is a great tribute to them and their music. They may not be the prettiest guys around but they can certainly play a tune."

"Now it's on sky I've finally bothered to watch the last star wars film. Utter tosh. Expectations were low, and it STILL somehow disappointed me. Ending completely ripped off from avengers endgame."

"Watched ""Legend"" last night yet another Kray film thought Tom Hardy was very good playing both brothers. Some of the East End locations were a bit poor as in the ""Blind Beggars"" being tucked away in a side street. Enjoyed it though."

"May have a look at the fourth protocol, but I find the problem with old spy films is they are now a bit dated. Blame it on Rio was a cracking little film with Caine in. Harry brown is good."

"Manuel 6:46 Thu Apr 30 Thanks for that I've never seen it so will search Sky and see if it's o there. If you like The Black Windmill then both The Fourth Protocol, Caine again, and Fear is The Key are good movies."

"Zico - The Black Windmill is a great film, remember being blown away by it when I first watched it years back. Love Michael Caine, watch 'A Quiet American' if you can, based in Vietnam, one of his best films for sure."

"Sven Roeder 9:22 Wed Apr 29 Ha ha, yeah good point about the water tanks. Funny how films can date but still be enjoyable. Watched The Black Windmill with Michael Caine last night. I live a few miles from the windmill in question. What was funny though was how his characters wife had to sit in a library delving through massive scrap books for information whereas these days a quick swipe of a phone and Google would have given her the answer! Would have been a quick film now!"

"Watched ""The King"" last night apart from some of the accents we really enjoyed it. For some reason Kodi played up a bit whilst watching it stating low strength wi-fi so will look forward to seeing if my new TalkTalk router and faster fibre will make a difference when it arrives."

"ted - Blimey, my Mum also took us to see the new Bond film (Roger Moore era) at the ABC Romford, those were the days when you sometimes had to queue up outside in the cold. Pearl & Dean, choc ice lady. Great, carefree, innocent days. What the fuck happened?"

zico Was reading that the credits are diagonal so one name is bottom left and the other upper right so they are as ‘equal’ as possible. On the poster McQueens name is first but Newman’s name is slightly higher. Didn’t count the lines to see if they were the same but McQueen doesn’t appear until at least half an hour in so has to talk a bit more to catch up while Newman is bonking Faye Dunaway! Crazy but it’s all about the fees you can command by being top billing. Great fun but not quite sure why they didn’t remember the water tanks were there half an hour in.

Watched Hope Gap yesterday If you like Bill Nighy then you'll like this. Don't know how SS does it but his films are of great quality and this one isn't due to be released until June 2020.

"Sven Roeder 9:15 Mon Apr 27 Still a great film that. Incredible cast looking back. William Holden, Faye Dunaway, Richard Chamberlain. Newman and McQueen's names were left and right in the titles but right was slightly higher than left so as you say identical billing."

ted fenton 3:21 Mon Apr 27 If you like a bit of emotion in your films Ted I can recommend TOGO true story set in Alaska about a husky breeder who has to set out to get a vaccine to save the town! Willem Defoe in fine form! Like a real old fashioned Disney yarn!

For a bit of escapism I watched the old disaster epic Towering Inferno at the weekend on itv I think it was. Slightly surprised that some haven’t kicked off saying how TERRIBLE it was to screen this post Grenfell. Apparently Steve McQueen and Paul Newman had to have absolutely equal billing and the same number of lines. Fred Astaire is a conman and OJ Simpson head of security. Robert Wagner in it so a couple of wife killers on board.

"Watched 'Dark Waters' a typical gutsy lawyer takes on big corporate co jobby. It is decent but just don't expect any car chases, fit birds or violence etc. Made more interesting that it's based on a true story."

"As said before running out of latest films to watch so gave "" Wolf of Wall Street"" a go and really enjoyed it true story too. Leonardo DiCaprio at his best."
