"Update from the set of Kit Bag. Old 'limping' Ridley has a temper on him, causing two production staff to burst into tears. JP is pretty cool and often seen having a fag out the back. Extras arrive Friday but the Period Costume Designer is having kittens, as a million quid's worth of Prussian army uniforms are yet to arrive from Pakistan. It's a 67 day shoot with no break, and on day 2, crew are already at the end of their tethers."

"he coming of gary 2:09 Tue Feb 15 Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022 Maybe that, or the French charge at Agincourt."

"Thanks for that NS, been a while since I watched it, amazing cinematography"

"fantastically shot ... any famous battles worthy of a new film? charge of the light brigade, maybe?"

"Officer : Sir, Napoleon has ventured within range. may i have your permission to try a shot ? Wellington : Certainly not. ."

Anon… probably seen the film 20+ times… love everything to do with that part of history… like you say unless you get the whole of the Russian army in as extras (which is what they did) then pretty hard replicating it… fav scene is the charge of the Scotts Greys… absolute goosebumps…. Well that and when the French Old Guard... who had never lost a battle get their bearskinned arses torn apart…. “NOW MAITLAND… NOW’S YOUR TIME”

that was to RBshorty

"Northern Sold 12:17 Tue Feb 15 Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022) Maybe Waterloo ruined it for everyone, I don't think it will ever be beaten in terms of scale, you just don't get thousands of real extras anymore. On top of that it's absolutely beautifully shot, some scenes honestly look like oil paintings."

I’d be right up to watch a movie about old Napoleon… love the Napoleonic times… in fact took the missus up Wellington’s Arch last Thursday with a great day out in the City… first time for everything

Napoleon is the Everest for a lot of film makers Alfs. Even Kubrick shied away from the subject. Ridley well into his 80’s. And only has a few bullets left in the gun. As long as it is well written it should be a winner.

"My missus is working on Kit Bag, the new Ridley Scott film, starring Joaquin Phoenix. He's having a bit of a meltdown with nerves and Ridley is constantly reassuring him. They've taken over Blenheim Palace, costing a million a day, and they're running behind schedule. Lots of screaming and shouting going on. Why Apple TV think a film about Napoleon is worth a $120 million budget, I've no idea. They won't even be able to do product placement."

"Lansky - Better than I expected it to be, really enjoyed Harvey Keitel's performance."

CopShop. Got that 70’s vibe. But not fit to be mentioned next to Carpenter’s Assault On Precinct 13.

"Just watched The Hunt"" on Netflix. Highly bizarre and quite different but weirdly enjoyable."

"Persian Lessons on the iplayer, absolutely brilliant.."

Any decent spiderman links floating about?

Saw CopShop at the weekend. Bit like Tarantino doing Assault on Precinct 13. Decent action thriller.

"I had to google this thread to find it. Why is there still no mans land between page one and two? Fckin dogs etc. Anyway. Watched Fifty Dead Men Walking and enjoyed it. Its about the troubles in Belfast. As you were, etc."

Not sure why people were raving about the new Spiderman movie. Was pretty average and not as good as the one's with Andy Murray in them.

Bout an hour. Why?

"Dog - How long was it after the credits were rolling that you rushed to find this thread? Bless. Nobody is good though. Pig also decent, but not that great. Watched 'Meantime' again, one of Mike Leigh's earlier works, it's still good. Nothing will beat Secrets and Lies, though."

A lot of similarities to John wick. Very entertaining and hilarious at parts.

"I watched Motherless Brooklyn and No time to die this week. Fuck me, what tosh."
