    Would be interested in this movie having red <em>Into Thin Air</em> on Crucial's recommendation. I'll second his opinion. Excellent book. Haven't read <em>Left to Die</em> but may have to.<br>
    Will be interesting how they depict the story in a movie.

    The Dark Horse - movies is pretty good, but the underlying story is also pretty sad, more so that it is based on a true story. <br><br>
    Cliff Curtis is very good, as is James Rolleston (aka Boy and that Vodafone guy)

    <p>Had some time this afternoon to watch Captain America: The Winter Soldier.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Quite enjoyed it. Nick Fury doesn't say "muthafucka" nearly as much as he needs to. Though the Ezekiel 25:17 line on his gravestone is funny.</p>

    Olga Kurylenko's predilection for getting naked is a credit to her, and a bonus for us. <br><br>
    Also Hitman is stupid fun

    <p>The "reboot" of Hitman is out next month, with shit Jeremy Renner in the lead. It looks awful, but explodey, but with a Chinese chick in the lead so it works in China, so 110% less nudity...</p>

    <p>That's not Jeremy Renner - it's the dude from Homeland, he could be quite good in the role. The chick doesn't look Chinese either.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Did you actually watch the trailers? ;)</p>

    <p>I know hes not Jeremy Renner. He's "shit Jeremy Renner." He looks like Jeremy Renner, acts like Jeremy Renner. Plays similar roles. But he's the guy you get when you can't afford Jerenmy Renner - hence he's "shit Jeremy Renner"</p>

    <p>There is a step down from Jeremy Renner? That's a pretty low bar to set. Also, that movie will suck. </p>

    <p>Fuck, you make one bad decision on the beers, and you never live it down... seriously, even a bit pissy that movie sucked so hard. </p>

    <p>Timothy Olyphant was awesome in the original. Why couldn't they get him back. I loved that movie</p>

    <p>I bet Timothy Olyphant wants to do a rom com. He's so fricking locked into those roles. Deadwood - you're a cop, Justified - you're a cop, The Crazies - you're a cop, Hitman - you're like a cyborg cop!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>He'll be in the next Nicholas Sparks movie.</p>

    <p>Jeremy Renner is shit, that guy's the good Jeremy Renner (TBF I'm only basing that on Homeland and Starred Up but he showed more range and charisma than Renner in those two alone).</p>

    <p>Also, he's an ecstasy dealer in Go and a porn film maker in The Girl Next Door. </p>

    <p>One of the enduring tragedies in the world is that Eliza Cuthberts career has not taken off enough so I can see her in lots of movies, but equally not tanked so badly she goes the Alissa Milano / Lindsey Lohan route & does soft pron. </p>

    <p>Get Hard. I thought I was going to cringe all the way through this, but like others actually found it quite funny. Ferrell can be hit and miss but pulled this off quite nicely. "I built this company with my own bare hands... and an $8 million dollar loan from my father". Lol.</p>

    <p>The Equalizer. Denzel Washington is just a man, trying to make his way in the world. He also happens to an unstoppable, remorseless killing machine (despite having the body of your dad). Lionel from Shortland St is the bad russian who never stood a chance. </p>

    <p>think you might have the wrong fella M4L (well wrong SS character anyway?)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Yes Urban was in the Bourne Ultimatum I think it was...</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Speaking of Bourne and the earlier dissing of Jeremy Renner, Bourne Legacy was on TV last night, saw it when I was flicking channels.</p>
