cavanami Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 OK, good copy. Great acting but the movie didn't follow the book so much. Nice to see Thailand in the 60s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 TV serie, Ozarks. Quite good. Worth a watch. Netflix seems to have fallen into a formulaic approach with these otherwise excellent 'original' series. Thi sis one a few, I've watched, where they seem to have a 'woman's, episode at about episode 7, wherein they devote the whole hour to backflashes, building the romantic and relationship aspects, to the leads and plot... never mind the other episodes were great 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coss Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 TV series Blue Planet ll - very good and notable for the sheer quality of the footage, with many previously unseen phenomena . In the Coasts episode, young male Sea Lions in the Galapagos herd 60 Kg Yellow Fin Tuna into the shallows in and near channels through rock pools, using teamwork, strategy and frankly, cleverness... result? more Tuna than they can eat in a day...

radioman Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Atomic Blonde (2017) So, Charlize Theron and Sofia Boutella, together, in the same movie, nekid, going at it. Oh you need the story details? Well a "Collapse of the Wall" era spy thriller with enough twists to keep Le Carre on his toes and Theron is one mean assed ball busting bitch. Just watch it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 For those of you that want to understand what President Trump is up against. An excellent doco that explains the failures of the NSA, from the Vietnam Tet Offensive to modern day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Dunkirk [2017] Now available on BlueRay rip, they don't make them like they used to! The story of the Dunkirk evacuation is more style than substance with hollow characters, albeit visually impressive best seeing on a big screen system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Stone and American University historian Peter J. Kuznick, began working on the project in 2008. Stone, Kuznick and British Only watched about 1/2 but he covers many, many things not commonly known. Focus on WW II, the atom bombing of Japan, Korea, the rise of communist Russia, etc. From what he says, FDR and Truman had some big screw ups....
