Today's Movie

[Stolly]

In most modern scraps, the protagonists would be dead or unable to carry on after the first round!

Watch The Raid if you want to be amazed by fight scenes

[Stolly]

As for "realistic" fights, then it has to go to Colin Firth and Hugh Grant:

alright, not from a movie, but this fight scene takes some beating (no pun intended):

[DazTheSlug]

so anyway
they did Top 5 Road Movies on Film 2012:
Midnight Run (obviously correct choice for no. 1)
Red River (surely primarily a western?)
Wizard Of Oz (again, stretching it a bit?)
39 Steps (hmmm... prefer It Happened One Night myself)
Thunderbolt & Lightfoot (fair enough)

personally, I'd've had Two-Lane Blacktop and Planes, Trains & Automobiles in there

any other omissions...?

Watched 'Ted' last night.

Disappointing

[shaunaneto]

I think I'll go high brow this evening with 'Tropic Thunder'

The Keep
midnight:15 on Film 4
very rarely comes on TV
hoping they show it in full 2.35:1 widescreen
worth a watch if you've never seen it

Dammit Daz, I'd meant to record that as well.

My memory is going and I'm only mid thirties
