Well Top Gun – Maverick was about as believable as a film about Elephants flying… my God… my jaw almost dislocated …. Yeah great flying sequences but… watching a 1970’s F14 blast away and defeating modern day fighters… and lets be honest it was just a rehash of the Dambusters… except that was REAL….

Watched The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent which was great fun. Nice to see Nick Cage can parody himself.

"Kes is worth watching just for the football in PE scene, with Brian Glover as the bully teacher."

Kes is shit

if only the worth of your opinion was as much as your salary Swiss

"Kes is shit. We had to do it for English Lit. West Ham fans liking stories about sad, depressing, poor northern folk. Site and dogs etc."

"I've just loaded ""KES"" on Kodi so will give it a go seeing that it was my era ! must admit I've never heard of it."

Ahh well that wasn't Billy them was it? It was Princey. Assumed he meant Billy in Kes

Gary Olsen was in Prospects Mr Anon....

"Gary Olsen wasnt even in Kes, Billy was played by David Bradley"

"Gary Olsen wasnt even in Kes, Billy was played by David Bradley"

"Kes is a fantastic movie, gives glimpse back to what life was like back then, not the rose tinted stuff most remember the late 60,s and early 70,s to have been it was hard and cruel place at times. Quite like watching some of the older UK shows and movies, Prospects from the early 80,s really shows the England and London of that era, mass unemployment etc, again not the rose tinted version some look back with! Also the scenery and street life has for the most part been bulldozed and re developed especially the old docklands used in a lot of the filming of the series. Sadly Gary Olsen who plays Billy and another under rated actor died very young from Cancer, only about 40 All on youtube these days get your reminiscing heads on, link below to episode 1……….. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIbZI6UlMKE&t=337s"

"Cheers, Surface. He was good in Kes thinking he was Bobby Charlton on that sloping pitch. A different world then."

"Manuel Before he was a full-time actor Brian Glover, the PE teacher, wrestled under the name of Leon Aris (the Man from Paris), who, strangely, had a broad Barnsley accent. He was hilarious - this is his famous match against Les Kellett, another wonderful comedian wrestler. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcBksyTkwQM"

Absolutely loved Everything Everywhere All At Once - great concept and execution. Michelle Yeoh looked like she had a huge amount of fun making it

"Watched ,everything everywhere all at once, now that is a film . Utterly mental , brilliant and exciting , well worth a watch . Think it maybe my favourite film this year, Sure won't be for all due to concept but will be for most , jamie lee curtis is just nuts in it. Other film I enjoyed was the Tony Hawk documentary until the wheels fall off , although led into all the dogtown docs and movies."

"The Duke, with Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren. Based on a true story in Newcastle, early 60's. Not bad, but won't live long in the memory."

"Watched Top Gun in 4DK yesterday, a thoroughly enjoyable 2 hours."

"Joe - Sure. I do myself sometimes. I re-watched Kes (1969) this week, it's bleak but really takes you back to old England when teachers were real cunts and kids played outside. Filmed in Barnsley where the boy who played the part still resides."

Big lol at that incredibly accurate autocorrect **waves at Manuela**

Manuela - nothing wrong with watching an 80’s classic at any point. I could have quoted it line for line anyway

Aren’t the RAF the real Top Guns?

"Saw Top Gun today, it was alright, but will hardly stay long in the memory. It's a bit of a 'fans' film. Joe - Very sweet you watched the original again first. Bless."

"Yep, watched the original on Thursday night and the new one last night. Loved it"
