How do you watch movies? 1 2

Theater? TV? Thru the neighbors window? For us it is usually on TV, we don't rent movies or use Netflix, just what ever is on at the time. Last time I was in the theater was to see Dark Knight Rises and it was horrible, the sound was shit, the crowd was shit and the pop was flat... There is a drive in theater about 45 minutes away, I use to work at a factory next to it and we would sit in the parking lot and turn the car radio on an watch the movie once a week instead of working.

KISS - on their last tour

KISS has either started or getting ready to start their End of the Road tour. Suppose to be the last of KISS tours (at least with this lineup - read on) I'm not particularly a KISS fan, I dn't care for most of their song because I don't care for Paul Stanleys voice. But I do recognize the influence they have had on rock and roll. I listened to an interview a couple days ago with Gene Simmons, he said this was the last because he and the others want to end it to enjoy retirement and that if he wanted to do this forever he would join the Rolling Stones. He was asked about a rumor that KISS would continue with a whole new lineup once they are done and he said that this …

Movies you should watch.

Some of us are older and remember watching these movies, but not all of us are in the 30s and 40s and some might actually never have watched some very, very good movies from the previous century. Now, I know everyone here has their own personal favourites, but, despite this, I would like to see which movies you would be pissed never to have found out they existed and would recomend watching to somebody. Here is a list from the ones I remember on top of my head. I am excluding movies that have somewhat recentsequels that might have driven to the vieweing of the previous titles. And the list is in no specific order. "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" …

Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) The Awesome: Whether you wanted one or not, we got a Han Solo film. All the characters we see throughout the film are just cool, like the ones around the Sabaac card games. The sets are pretty cool along with the props and the technology all around us. Just being in the Star Wars universe is always a fun time. We learn how Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich) meets Chewbacca the Wookie (Joonas Suotamo) and it's pretty cool when it happens. The train heist sequence was very entertaining and really appreciate the filmmaker for not choosing the regulation shaky-cam and disorienting camera movements that usually rule those types of sequences an…

Favourite Cover Songs

I love a good cover song, one that takes the original in new and unexpected directions, so I thought I'd start a thread to share a few of my own and see what are your favourite cover songs, any genre, any artist. A galloping Iron Maiden style cover of one of my favourite Radiohead songs. Radiohead covering Carly Simon's brilliant Bond song from The Spy Who Loved Me. And perhaps the greatest cover song of all time, Hendrix's version of Bob Dylan's All Along The Watchtower.

AC/DC is one of the best bands ever, Malcolm is one the best guitar players ever and has left AC/DC after 40+ years due to having dementia. I've smoked alot of weed back in the day and drank alot of booze while jamming to AC/DC. Hope he gets well, but with his illness probably won't happen. http://www.kpopstarz.com/articles/120868/20141006/malcolm-young-dementia-ac-dc-guitarist.htm

Is anybody watching this? I have subscribed to CBS All Access to watch it. Unfortunately, that's the only way we can see it in the States. We are currently 4 episodes into the Series, and it is Dae different from any other Star Trek Series to date. I won't put up any spoilers, yet. Not until I know there are others watching this. If you are a Trek fan, then you should give this a shot. EU can get this on Netflix, I think. NA can watch the pilot for free on the CBS App. If there are any viewers, we can discuss the new Series here. Official Trailer

I won't claim to know who they all are but here is the list. Who do you think deserves it, who does not. Rage Against the Machine, The Cars and LL Cool J would be top picks as far as influence to music IMO, Judas Priest also. I don't know about Bon Jovi and Dire Straights though, I like them but don't see them as moving as some of the others Bon Jovi Kate Bush The Cars Depeche Mode Dire Straits Eurythmics J. Geils Band Judas Priest LL Cool J MC5 The Meters Moody Blues Radiohead Rage Against the Machine Rufus featuring Chaka Khan Nina Simone Sister Rosetta Tharpe Link Wray …

I got a fishingtrip coming up and need a few great tracks that I have never heard before. I figured you guys might be able to help. Do you have two fairly recent awsome tracks that I have not heard on the radio? It would be very appreciated if you would post them here, They do need to be available on Spotify, so a spotify link would be the best. Asking alot, but I have high hopes..

WarHammer 40K fans!

- 702 views
IN THE END THERE IS ONLY WAR! Hopefully there are fans of the WarHammer 40,000 stories, games, or universe here. It's an interesting story line where we fully encase gene-bulked warriors in plate armor like walking tanks to fight the aliens and demons that seek our annihilation.. 40 thousand years in the future. If you want to talk about aspects of the games/stories, or have questions about any of that nerd stuff, I believe I maybe able to chime in. Horn tutting time! I've read 36 out of the 40 Horus Heresy books. I knocked out both Ultramarines and Space Wolf Omnibuses. I have a small 1,500 point painted army of miniatures that I don't have time for thanks to the …

238Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Threads (1984) dir Mick Jackson A terrifying and shockingly brutal TV film about a nuclear war in the 1980s. The back story is the USA and USSR both intervene in a civil war in Iran. This then escalates over the course of a few weeks and ultimately leads to all out nuclear war with both countries, and their allies, bombing each others cities into oblivion. It's set in Sheffield, where I now live, a large, industrial city. It was more industrial in the 80s and had an RAF base fairly close, so this is what makes it a target. It's not made completely in the usual narrative style of films, although there is a basic plot following a young couple, expecting a baby, and their parents and friends (at least those who survive the initial attack). Parts of it are more documentary and some bits almost like a public information film explaining what would happen in the event of a nuclear war. Things like who would take control of local government, how would they distribute food and medicine in the aftermath. A lot of it is narrated, explaining things like how there would be no electricity, because early nuclear strikes would be aimed at destroying that sort of infrastructure. And then after the attack, what life would be like for those who were not killed outright. This is when the film is at it's most shocking, making you feel that the people killed instantly when the bombs hit were the lucky ones. It explains how the fallout would kill many of those not killed already; debris blown into the air, with lethal levels of radiation, that gradually falls back to the ground, blown by the wind away from where the bombs fell, so spreading death over an even greater area. It continues the story for many years after the war, showing how other clouds of dust blown into the upper atmosphere by the blast shroud huge parts of the Earth, blocking out the Sun, leading to a “Nuclear Winter” as temperatures plunge and hardly anything can grow for years. And of course this does not just effect the countries who fired their nuclear missiles at each other. So there's no winners in nuclear war, every one loses. I reiterate what Lime said in his review and urge you to watch this if you can. 10 / 10 I'd also recommend another TV film I saw many years ago, on the same basic theme but from a very different angle and without the documentary style. By Dawn's Early Light (looks like it could be available on Youtube), which follows the crew of a US B-52 bomber, armed with nuclear bombs and on patrol when war breaks out, plus other military personal and politicians who survive the initial strikes. No where near as brutal as threads, about the choices these people have to make.- 2
