    Captain Jack will have to be a mixed-race transexual to make it historically accurate.

    @rancid-schnitzel I was looking on IMDB yesterday, and a series on Anne Boelyn popped up, but Anne Boelyn was black, currently has a 1.2/10 IMDB rating.

    Isn’t that a really bizarre thing to do for an actual historical figure?. It’s as ridiculous as a Aleksander Skarsgård playing Shaka Zulu. Or indeed John Wayne playing Gengis Khan (now that is a shit film).

    @rancid-schnitzel imagine the outrage if they cast Brad Pitt as Martin Luthar King or Malcolm X.

    Perfectly fine. Kirk Lazarus played Hot LZ.

    He was hilarious in that. People are so easily outraged these days. As if we don't have more pressing things to worry about

    @canefan that's a really silly funny film I haven't seen in ages, time for a rewatch.

    Well I for one am deeply offended at tweets from young English cricketers from years ago and think it’s disgusting that he got selected in the first place.

    Right, after all that talk about Bautista, and his movies, I downloaded a couple.
    Final Score

    • Die Hard
    • But with Dave Bautista, instead of Bruce Willis
    • And in a soccer stadium, instead of a skyscraper
    • And there's a crowd in there, oblivious to everything

    That's pretty much all you need to know. If you can't extrapolate from those 4 bullet points, to pretty much feeling like you've seen the film - I envy your lack of imagination/intelligence.

    But, some bonus points you might not have envisaged:

    • Titwatch: zero
    • Explosions: big (actually - yeah, you'd have that one)
    • Gunfights on motorcycles inside a stadium concourse: check (yep - crowd is still oblivious even after this)
    • Pierce Brosnan: check. Wait, what? Is that Pierce Brosnan? What the fuck? Why.... ? What the fuck?
    • I won't list the "homages" to Die Hard. But suffice to say a dead terrorist body is thrown off the roof to let the cops know the situation is real.

    I saw that. Decidedly average but good for a mindless watch.

    I haven’t even bothered finishing it yet. Zombie movies are so early 2000s.

    Watched Don Siegel ruin the end of his career with a Michael Caine movie in 1974 - The Black Windmill. So fucking inept. Editing and script were so bad.
