  1.  

     

      I've got to look back though here and find something to watch. I finally finished three seasons of Vikings. Good show but got a bit excessivly mystical in spots in season 3 IMO. Suppose I finally will have to watch GoT. I never seem to get started on that one.

     

      I am sure I have mentioned it here before, but IMO  Vikings is the much better show of the two.

     

      But then again many people love GoT.....I just couldn't get into it and I tried for 2 full seasons.

     

      If you don't like the mystical stuff you may have a hard time with GoT...... Kalishi stumbles upon some dragon eggs just a few episodes into season one.

  2. Oh yeah, sorry!

     

    It was actually called Pacific Heights; he played the role of a psychopathic tenant renting an apartment from Melanie Griffiths, not a bad movie and he played a very good role. 

     

    It was made 2 years after Clean and Sober, which IMO was his best movie ever.

  3. He did very good in Birdman, although I thought the movie overall was so-so at best.

     

     Ed Norton and Emma Stone played fantastic roles as well.

     

      I remembered before;  one of Keaton's well-done early roles was in Tequila Sunrise.

  4. One of the major issues moving forward will be "how will we find enough clean, potable water to satiate the masses?"  We are running low in 3rd world countries now and they don't have the cash to fix the problem.

  5. He was pretty good in a small role as Jennifer Lopez' boyfriend in Out of Sight.

     

    Never saw BeetleJuice or his Batman nonsense, but he played a really good role in Clean and Sober from 1988.

     

    Very believable as a drug addict/drunk spiraling out of control.

  6. Hey Lefty.....the girl who plays Sloane is really hot, Aaron Rodgers' main squeeze Olivia.....but she kind of seems asexual at best and they make her out to be some kind of a soulless automaton, not feeling or caring about much outside of economics.

     

    I just watched episode 5 of the first season, I have to assume she fucks someone, some way, sometime?  I am thinking she and Will hook up eventually but don't spoil it for me :hi:

  7. Yeah, I mentioned that it may be a good time for Kahuna to get NetFlix.

     

    I don't know what they have for programming but I'm quite sure it's worth the 10 bucks a month. Hell, if they have The Newsroom and all seasons of Breaking Bad that would be worth it right there.

  8. I ain't never seen The Newsroom except for this classic clip...If I know how to download stuff I would...but alas I ain't that bright....

     

     

     

    That clip is actually taken from the first 6 minutes of the first show of the first season......excellent video. The whole show is like that - fast, witty, smart and good political intrigue.  Probably looks a lot like a real TV newsroom, too.

     

    Sam Waterston also has a lead, he from the Law and Order franchise and seemingly in another life The Killing Fields.

     

    May be time to get NetFlix Kahuna, all the seasons are probably there.  Or just download Utorrent  http://www.utorrent.com/and get your shows from here;  https://www.torrentz.eu/

     

    Send me a PM if you want a walk-through but it should only be a few minutes to download the Utorrent.

  9. Also, check him out in Intolerable Cruelty. Hilarious. 

     That is a GREAT movie!

     

    No "mature" woman was ever hotter than Catherine Zeta-Jones in that, either.  Worth watching.

  10. Let's see what the head of the Motion Picture of America said to The Times upon its release;

     

    http://www.nytimes.com/1992/04/02/movies/valenti-calls-jfk-hoax-and-smear.html

     

    ''In a highly unusual and angry statement, Jack Valenti denounced the film "J. F. K." today as a "hoax," a "smear" and "pure fiction" that rivaled the Nazi propaganda films of Leni Reifenstahl.

    In the seven-page statement, Mr. Valenti said Mr. Stone's film was "a monstrous charade" based on "the hallucinatory bleatings of an author named Jim Garrison, a discredited former district attorney in New Orleans."

     

    Sounds about right.  Garrison was the discredited DA from New Orleans who had nothing; Stone dredged all that nothing up into a fictional movie and tricked millions of people into believing it was true with some slick editing and movie-making slight of hand. To sell tickets. Because that's what movie-makers do.

     

    The movie was entertaining to be sure, but simply a work of fiction and he didn't make that clear enough.

  11. Myself, I loved Natural Born Killers.

     

    But then again, I smoke weed  B)

     

    Especially loved the prison warden role played by Tommy Lee Jones.

     

    I think the worst, most disgusting piece of trash ever made by Ollie Stone was "JFK", a piece of pure fiction which was presented as fact and which millions of people believed. He will never live that one down and I am sure he is now embarrassed by it.

  12. Yeah, I had seen it before as well, Seven; I am sure it was one of the deciding factors [amongst many] which made me want to visit Vietnam so badly back in 1998. I probably saw it on VCR a year or 2 after it came out.  The scenery is absolutely sublime; I looked up where he filmed it and it said Vietnam and Thailand, which is not surprising.

     

      Very intense movie.....you keep saying to yourself all the way through it "how can this young lady's life get any harder?" but somehow it keeps getting more and more difficult, year after year.

     

    Speaking of beauties, the girl who played Le Ly was a knockout as well; her name was Hiep Thi Le, a one-off actress who beat out thousands of others to play that role, and she did it really well.

     

    That's cool you got to talk to Ollie Stone, one of the best directors ever!

  13. I re-watched a GREAT movie from 1993 over the weekend......  Heaven and Earth by Oliver Stone and featuring Tommy Lee Jones. Excellent portrayal of the Vietnam war from the perspective of the Vietnamese;  it didn't get as much ink or as much credit from the critics as Born on the 4th of July or Platoon, but it was still really well-done.

     

    Highly recommended if you haven't seen it.

  14. Hey, this guy finally got his party!

     

    Monica Lewinsky was in attendance!  And Moby was the DJ
