Option 3: quick shag in the dunnies
Maybe the wrong film for that?

Nah have a headache which I'm prone to. Plus the price of beer in Switzerland...
But you sort of have a point.
It's a good film anyways glad I made the effort to actually seee it in the theatre.

The 100 year old man who climbed out of his window and disappeared.
Terrific story about this geezers adventure after escaping a retirement home with flashbacks to his extraordinary life. Kind of reminds me a little like a dark comedy swedish Forrest Gump.
8 shots of hard liquor (not a kids drink) outta 10 explosions

Haven't read that yet, but did read another book written by the same guy:
Hitman Anders and the Meaning of It All. Rather good. -
Night Moves has been released on blu-ray with a good transfer.

Goon was a lot of fun. I have soft spots for Seann William Scott and Michael Dowse (FUBAR is one of my favourite movies), and they delivered.
The movie was almost ruined early on by Jay Baruchel's shitty side-kick character. Also, the credits music was genuinely terrible. On the other hand, great to see a soundtrack credit for Night Seeker.

I think Baruchel was the writer so might have been hard to dispense with.
Stone Cold is the undercover in the bikies one? Hahaha, classic video era movie.

I thought you were talking about this , there were a lot of low budget Aussie films like this around the time Razorback was another.

Yep. It's stupid as hell but fun.
The brunette biker babe is hot!
I watched this for the first time last week... and yeah, pretty good.
AVclub.com is doing a series of "best action movie of each year", and Stone Cold got a very honorable mention - leading me to track it down. -

Those are great, I've been reading them too.
The last half hour of Stone Cold is amazing. Those fuckers didn't have to kill the hot babe though!

Saw "Terminator 2" in 3D at the cinema last night
A beautiful story about self responsibility, empowerment and the value of a strong father figure in a child's life.
We learn the importance of respecting peoples beliefs even if we disagree with them and that above all else a persons inherent value comes not from the colour of their skin (or indeed whether they have internal organs) but rather, by the content of their character. Also...Blue lives matter.
Certainly a movie from a by-gone era
