charon 4,943 Posted November 28, 2014 I read the other day on Twitter that there are plans afoot to remake Highlander with Tom Cruise being considered for the role that Sean Connery played in the original. Firstly Highlander does not need remaking the sequels were bad enough but infintely ignorable. Secondly when has any film been improved by the casting of Tom Cruise. Aaaaaarrrrggghhhhh Can Cruise do a passable Scottish accent? Eh, Connery was a Spaniard, and the frenchie was the scot... A Spaniard with a Scottish accent, IIRC. regards, Hein Aye, probably the original Flight of The Wild Geese , weren't all just the oirish O'Neill's under Sarsfield.

Guest David Posted December 13, 2014 I would like to put the amount of swearing that goes on on this forum in Room 101. It is a particular hate of mine - and my biggest turn - off in a woman. It is disgusting, common and unnecessary and shows a lack of learning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted December 23, 2014 Either your "friend" is a real douchebag if he's the one who got you chucked out, or you did something really bad. I mean getting kicked out of a cafe? wtf? I've been kicked out of a pub once before but only over a heated "serious family argument" with my much older sister and her BF which had been brewing in the background since long before we set foot in there. (I was really annoyed actually cos I should have seen it coming and controlled meself.....) No offense or anything....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What did you get kicked out for? Unless it's a case of mistaken identity? I had the impression that he was refused admission, rather than kicked out. A subtle distinction. The only excuse they could offer was due to 'recent online postings' without saying which online postings. To my knowledge I have posted nothing which would merit such am extreme course of action, and even if I did, what do they think they are doing monitoring my online activity. Bunch of stalkers. One thing though: I used to be employed by the company that runs the cafe...until they tried to fire me for gross misconduct, failed in that venture, then had to pay me a heap of money to piss off.

Deathray 2,940 Posted December 26, 2014 The fact that soap operas haven't been released in full on DVD (Corrie and Eastenders to be precise), that'd surely be good form-studying ground. Plus the fact that from the 10 or so early episodes of Corrie available on youtube, it just looks better in those days, why can't we have the entire lot to watch at our leisure? EDIT: So apparently most episodes of corrie from 1976-91 are available on YouTube with an intermittent splattering of episodes prior to, I'll take that.

Coronation Street was on Mondays & Wednesdays, Eastenders was on Tuesdays & Thursdays, dunno about Emmerdale Farm (as it used to be called) because I never watched it. Then somebody started the rot by adding an extra episode, and so on until they were on nearly every bloody night. Same amount of butter, more slices of bread ...

Then somebody started the rot by adding an extra episode, and so on until they were on nearly every bloody night. Same amount of butter, more slices of bread ... They still managed to produce some utter shite in the 1960s and 1970s with two episodes a week. A lot of it is too do with producers and how well they care for the show, Dominic Treadwell-Collins at EastEnders saw exactly what was needed, a shift in focus away from the same old faces; thus the Carter's were born, a mystery - thus Lucy Beale's death and all the interest it'll bring in the New Year, and some good old-fashioned bastard; thus Nick Cotton returned to fake his own death and use his sleazy son Charlie to get to him and Dean rapes Linda. Most importantly relationships seem to have been brought to the fore through the drama, which in essence makes a soap. Meanwhile over at Corrie Blackburns failed to remove the many deadwood characters, left a load of bonkers relationships plots running, used what could have been a great depression storyline as a basis for turning Steve into some kind off petty theif and created ridiculous love triangles. Not to mention the fucking gym storyline or the bizarre attempts at comedy. And I slight disagree on number of episodes, the tech we've got to film is far greater these days and as they've become core-output three nights a week their teams will have increased accordingly. Yes, the actors have to work harder and are paid less than the stars of old were, but that's the way the world is. However, 5 episodes a week of corrie is overload but as several generations are now transfixed I can't see ITV pulling some episodes down, especially as they'd probably need a comedy to fill the gap, or sports programme - neither of which they've been very good at.

I don't think it's Nick, only because I saw a picture showing Sharon and Linda at the funeral, and I don't think Linda would bother going to his funeral because he had 'died' before the Carters moved in. So I think it's someone else, Stan perhaps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
