<p>You have all no doubt seen it, but I watched the classic aussie comedy 'The Castle' tonight and it still stands up just awesomely, easily one of my favpurite comedies of all time.</p>

<p>That movie must hold some kind of record for quotable lines. You can just about rattle off the whole script without thinking about it.</p> -

<p>That's for sure. We even say "<strong>I just love mugs</strong>" at our house... and that's probably not even in the top half of the best lines from the movie.</p> -

<p>So many classic 80s movies started with the spinning Orion "O". When you saw that you knew it was movie time.</p> -

<br>
I had to make a decision on leaving early and missing some of the movie or taking a later ferry and I chose to leave early, and to tell the truth I wasn't really bothered.<br>
<br>
It was similar to Quantum of Solace in meh-ness IMHO but at least that one had Olga Kurlyenko on screen 85% of the time.<br>
<br>
I don't mind Craig in the role, and as you say M and Q are good, and I think Waltz is a good actor but was average in this. Not trying to disagree with you 100% - I agree Belluci isn't in it long enough. ;)</p></blockquote>

DIs you enjoy the other Craig Bonds? I do hear ya, it did drag a bit at times..... -

"If thereâ€

<br>
I've used this on more than a few occaisons in various levels of seriousness:<br>
"Fuck off you clown!" -
<p>Put me down as one of those bored by Spectre. Action scenes were good, but not tense or exciting, plot was good, although a little drawn out, Totty was, for me, no good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think it suffered a bit from following-on after Skyfall. Which was just fricking awesome.</p> -
<p><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2614684/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1'><em>'71</em></a> was a good thriller.</p>

<p>The first one was awesome, but then what do you expect, it was directed by a boy from the Bay ;).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The second one was spectacularly bad but had Olga Kurleynko and the previous one was ok.</p> -
Casino Royale is Craig's best.....still...shit Vespa was sexy. Quantum of Solace sucked in comparison but yeah, Agree about the eye candy in that. I think it's main problem was a couple of bad guys who were about as scary and menacing as the three stooges. <br><br>
Spectre is better than Skyfall I reckon, both have the same strengths and weaknesses. I still reckon the best bad guy is Scaramanga from Man with the Golden Gun, one of Moores 70s efforts. -

Jaws? -

<br>
If you can't keep up with the conversation Virg just don't contribute ok?<br><br>
Jaws is clearly a henchman, I'm talking lead villains ( which admittedly I didn't specify ) -
<p>yea, but you talk an awful lot of shit, so it's easy for people to get sidetracked...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>They've had Rocky movies on Foxtel this week. Rocky movies are awesome. Sure they got worse as they went on, but some of them are awesome. I think Clubber Lang is my favourite Rocky "villian" </p>
<p> </p>
<p>What's your prediction for the fight?</p>
<p>Prediction?</p>
<p>Yes, prediction</p>
<p>pause, turn slowly towards the camera</p>

And talking shit makes me unique on here???<br><br>
You can always rely on Sly to slur his way through an 'inspirational' speech in every movie he is in and be unintelligible for half of it. <br><br>
Good old Carl Weathers, held his own against Arnie and Sly in the 80s then decided a movie called 'Action Jackson' was a good idea. -
<p>"held his own"? against Rocky/Rambo, and John Matrix/The Terminator/Dutch/Ben Richards/Ivan Danko/Quaid?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>He's in the Rocky movies as the other guy; and the annoying, slightly useless Dillon in Predator.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Held his own, fucking hell...</p> -

<p>by the time we hit III and IV, everyone was fucking ripped. Stallone was ripped to bits. In IV, Lundgren is 1) fucking massive, and 2) fucking ripped. Even Mr T got himself pretty lean. </p> -

Well why don't you go and push pencils for as long as Dillon and see how your arms look.
