TV/Movies Megathread

[Josephus]

Finally got around to watching Stalingrad, the recent Russian film. Thought the cinematics were great, really well-shot film, but the plot was...meh. Made you think only five guys were defending the city, and it all came down to defending one house by the volga.
Some good street figthing scenes though.

[Martinus]

Started watching "Marco Polo". Very promising so far. Seems on par with "Vikings".

[CountDeMoney]

Anita Ekberg just died at 83.

They don't make 'em like that anymore.  Not even in Sweden.

[Josquius]

Maybe in Estonia


I'm watching through Star Trek the next generation. Nearly finished.
I notice: wow there are a lot of baker and in star fleet considering it is a minor non federation planet.
And vulcans position with the federation continues to confuse. They're members but there are often plots with Vulcan ships and spies.

[Neil]

Baker?

[Josephus]

Baker?

They didn't always eat synthetic food. Sometimes they baked fresh stuff.

[Ed Anger]

Taylor Negron died

[CountDeMoney]

 
Well, shit.

"Can I call you...Dad?"

[Josephus]

Was he in anything other than Ridgemont?

[CountDeMoney]

Easy Money.  Probably his finest role. 

[katmai]

Yeah he was doing guest spots in tv for most of last 20 years or so.

[celedhring]

Cancer sucks.

[Ideologue]

Baker?

Got me.

I assume by Vulcan spies etc. he means Romulans.

[Eddie Teach]

Vulcan, Romulan, Fairy, Elf... If it's got pointy ears, don't trust it. 

[Ideologue]

Agreed.
