[Film] Your ‘go to’ Film

[Muhammad - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

Do you know what nemesis means?

 

[Miami Seagull]

The Field. Love that film. Brilliant acting.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I haven't seen it for a long while now (it's one of those films I don't want to "wear out" and lose its magic) but is it true, in the opening scenes when the men run through the forest looking for the spaceship, they've digitally removed the guns and replaced them with bunches of keys? I read about it years but can't remember the details, but am very much hoping it hasn't been digitally altered in any way...

Can you enlighten me?

That was the scene when ET and the boys went to the skies on the bikes. Guns were taken out. The opening scene fixed on the " keys " of the man who wanted to save ET who was there at the end and is a religious reference to St Peter, keys to the Kingdom. There are lots of religious nods in the film

 

[Blackadder]

Great Escape or Zulu.

 

[Quinney]

Of course, this one makes the shortlist too....

Jaws. I just love it’s episodic structure. The first ever Summer blockbuster.

One of the great all time feel good movies, and one that you can sing along to.

The Thing is a great eighties horror. Good call.

Jaws. On every other week on ITV4, but will join it at whichever point its at, looking to loyally see it through. And that's despite having a general dislike for what Spielberg made for 40 odd years onwards.

Gotta be The Godfather for me. Loved 1 & 2 but thought 3 wasn't anywhere near as good as the other two.

JAWS is a good call from earlier too. Watched that on Netflix a couple of weeks back after a few beers. Fell asleep but woke up for the grand finale

As it's been minutes since I last forced my favouritist podcast on the great great and the good of NSC, it would be rather amiss to not draw your attention to this:-

Jaws is the #1 Rewatchables download, it's a great listen.




For the love of god someone needs to listen to Monday's episode - Cast Away.

"Can there be a sequel?"
"Yes, Cast Away II - Wilson Lives"

The synopses of that film is absolutely glorious - and will never ever be made.

Hot Fuzz

Thanks- will have a listen

I would be amazed if you don't enjoy it.

Afterwards you'll have a further 200 Rewatchables to dip into.

The Searchers

I've watched it so often that my wife now knows the dialogue.

Wonderful film, the DVD commentary with Martin Scorsese, John Milius and Peter Bogdanovitch is great.

American Graffiti, fell in love with it as a teenager and its still my favourite film of all time. However my real go to is a TV series, I’ve just started rewatching The Sopranos on Sky and have got through two and a half series in about 10 days, it’s just brilliant TV. Tony Soprano is just so well written and acted, a vicious mob boss you can’t help but care for and about.

It's wonderful ... and the best ending of any film IMO

 

[Live by the sea]

About last night . Great film . The 1986 film not the 2014 one.
