Welcome to Jalj's Not-in-order-always-changing-top-10! HAPPY BIRTHDAY XDBX!!!!!! I figured i couldn't be calling myself the so called resident list maker while not actively making list for everyone to see... ...so i stopped calling myself so! I had to take a step back from my bi weekly list due to work, hobbies and school schedule. I still love list though, so now instead of biweekly, Im making this into a bimonthly list! So heres how this is going to work, Im going to post my favorite things in a list of top 10 and while the list will be numbered from 1 to 10, unless specified, the lists will not be in order. Sure I could just list them in order from my favorit…

[With Spoilers!] The Force Awakens, what did you think? 1 2
by MrBump360- 43 replies

I thought it was awesome to be honest... ok you can make a case for the plot being basically a remake for large parts, but what the hell. for me the new Characters were really good, but Han and Chewy stole the show. Harrison Ford was head an shoulders above anyone else. And yeah, it was kinda obvious wasn't it that he wouldn't make it? Mark Hamil.... just managed to sneak into the Credits? what a performance lol. Can pick some holes in the film, but I loved it anyway, Episode I-III can now be laid to rest, we have a worthy follower at last :-) May the force be with you!

The originals getting back together (Axl, Slash and Duff anyways) for the Cochella concert. I'm a GnR fan since the old days and while I like the Chinese Democracy album it just wasnt the same. Hopefully they put out a new album at some point in Appetite for Destruction style. And hopefully Axl don't fuck this up. I seen them in concert just before Appetite hit big, it was at a very small venue that holds a a 1,000 people. I made sense then, Axl is from about 40 miles from me so he knows/knew the area then quite well and the cities around. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/8-unanswered-questions-about-the-guns-n-roses-reunion-20160105

Hey guys ! So Avengers: Age Of Ultron comes out in less than 10 days here in France. And I'm freaking excited !!! Early reviews are in and it looks like we are in for a treat once again. Ever since Iron Man came out back in 2008, I became a huge fan of super heroes movies and TV Shows. I already kind of liked the genre thanks to movies like Tim Burton's Batman and later Spider-Man and the Dark Knight trilogy. But I really got hooked with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The way Marvel chose to make all their movies and TV shows part of the same world, I found this amazing. Besides, it's brilliantly executed and all the pieces fit perfectly together. I'm really …

The Gamechangers

I don't watch much TV, especially TV produced by ageing institution that is the BBC but this Tuesday evening there is a docufilm which should interest all of us. Called The Gamechangers its the story of Sam Houser and his case against American lawyers who were trying to ban the GTA series. It's starring Harry Potter (no magic involved) and has been based on the court documents. This film hasn't been endorsed by Rockstar so I'm expecting to see some gritty truths as well as an intriguing look behind the scenes of the most successful game series ever. How to watch it I'm not sure, UK residents will be able to watch it, I'm going to record it as it's the same time…

Me and the wife rarely watch TV, mostly just box sets that I get. Need some suggestions for a new one soon as most of the ones we watch have finished for now, or finished for good. We have already seen/are watching: Walking Dead Scandal Prison Break Lost Banshee Pretty Little Liars Under The Dome Dexter Breaking Bad Sons Of Anarchy Game Of Thrones Currently watching Wayward Pines, but have nearly finished what they've released so far. Thanks in advance.

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
