After reading another member's post I was thinking about 1992. And the music I was listening to. Graduated from high school in 1992 and started work at a record store and lived in an apartment upstairs. Had access to all kinds of music, bought the store and still run it out of my house as an internet only shop. Here are 5 songs I was jamming to in 1992 Please share what you were listening to in 1992. If you existed yet and most likely at least 10 years old. "Tennessee" by Arrested Development "Doo-Bop" Miles Davis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hoPqFiH6sg "Tears in Heaven" Eric Clapton "November Rain" Guns and Roses" "Baby…

Anyone watching this? I should hope you are as it's giving me some serious Red Dead hype. I don't want to go into the premise of the series other than the Western setting as that itself would be a spoiler for the first episode. All I'm going to say is that this is going to be the next big thing, it has a great cast in Antony Hopkins, Ed Harris, Thandie Newton as well as many other recognisible faces plus the legendary Steven Ogg (aka Trevor) also makes an appearance. JJ Abrams and Jonathan Noble are behind it and it's based on a book by Micheal Crichton who wrote Jurassic Park as well as being the major screenwriter for ER as well as many others. Defi…

Right there's no free beer i admit it, but i could really do with your help in relation to a uni project i've left far too late and am currently blasting through, but i need some data. Doing a study into Vinyl collections in the 21st century as there has been a bit of a resurgence in it's popularity (also known as the "manbun and beard effect) and i'm looking into the varying ways in which people collect/sell/view vinyl today. So i have a quick question... How many of you here either buy Vinyl records, sell Vinyl records or even just have a collection in the garage you forgot about till right now? and if you were to sell, do you know how you would go abou…

Drama Series 1 2

Gday, just a thread to discuss your fav dramas on the box. Or to suggest good ones for others to suss out for themselves. I find it hard to watch them each week when they're playing on tv so I like to watch a series on my pc so I never miss an episode of what I like. Taste comes into it a lot and what some like, there will be others who don't like the same thing so bare that in mind. I never watched the X-Files when it was running back in the 90's. I saw the odd episode and as a result had no idea of the story line. A few months ago I watched the whole series from start to finish. 10 seasons of it and it was awesome. 9/10 (nothing's perfect) (Alien con…

So it's back or she's back. As a huge Horror fan I have always enjoyed the difference in opinion regarding the original. The prequel is coming in September and just wanted to hear what everyone thought about the original and are you looking forward to the new one? Personally, I liked the original because of the found footage concept and my imagination went into overdrive while watching it. Had they shown the witch, I feel it would have lessened the psychological effect it was having on me. Here is the trailer for the upcoming version:

Assassins Creed Movie

Firstly here's the trailer: Now thoughts. My first thought is that why has the Animus become this virtual reality device when in the game it was just based on memories. Your character didn't need to physically act out what he was doing in the past. It looks like a brand new plot though as none of the console game titles has dealt with the Spanish Inquisition directly although it does match up with Ezio's time frame who had a small dealing with them in an iOS title. If Fassbender is indeed Ezio then I can see that being a crowd pleaser. Obviously very heavy on the CGI which doesn't look like it's up to the standard of some of the more recent bloc…

Blake is dead

Well the actor who played him, Gareth Thomas in Blake's 7 (BBC late 70s / early 80s Sci Fi show), has died. I may well be the only one here who remembers this. I don't know if it ever got showed in other countries. I am still a big fan of Blake's 7, have all 4 series on DVD. It looks very, very dated now. It never had really expensive sets or special effects, so relied on the actors and writers.

What show could suit us?

We (me and Mrs) are struggeling to find a good serie to watch together. We have the obvious problem of her falling asleep after 15 minutes while I keep watching four episodes. But other than that we cant seem to find something good. So far these have worked: Sopranos, Prison break, Sons of anarchy, and Homeland. On my own I have enjoyed Dexter and The walking dead, but they are too violent and unreal (zombie) to suit the Mrs. We can do Modern family and Arrested development, but these comedies dont get one caught, its more a way to fall asleep. Tried House of cards, but uneven episodes and very few characters to like. (Sure didnt help when he wa…

Rate 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
