    Be eaten alive for this, but don't think the Lord of the Rings trilogy is as good as some people make it out to be.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Gawd, it was a brilliantly constructed film, the dingy 70s and it showed you how computers tidied up the world and it had a cast to die for.

    But I hadn't a clue what was going on and I read the book.

    And UCI wouldn't give me a refund.

    Where Eagles Dare, WW2 Movie

    Saw it as a kid and thought it was brilliant, was on TV over Christmas one year and was crap, bad acting, continuity errors and of course all the Nazi soldiers spoke English to each other.

    Anyone said Godfather yet?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Nah, the last one, The Last Crusade was class. There were no other ones after that. Anyone who who says different is a liar.

    they never made a 4th Indy movie, I hear it was going to have Shia LeBouf in it and have a scene where Indy survives a nuclear blast by hiding in a fridge but the studio thought it was daft and never made it, anyone who thinks they actually saw this film were just dreaming, it doesnt exist.

    I actually haven't seen that one and I don't really care. The others didn't impress me at all. They're alright but nothing special.

    The Shawshank Redemption. Maybe I missed some kind of deep meaning, or maybe it was because it was spread over 2 weeks of religion class, but I was never dying to know what would happen next and the storyline was nothing special. So a guy gets out of a prison that's hard to get out of, yay?

    Or did it just go over my head :confused:

    Executive Decision. What genius came up with the idea to kill off the great Steven Seagal early on?

    Yeah, in school. I guess I could have watched it at home but I never got into it.

    there arent that many differences though, multiple wardens and Red being an actual white guy with red hair are the big ones I remember, and the ending is slightly differeny. Different Seasons is a great book.
