We watched Apollo 13 last night.
Amazing film on how the spacecraft and crew were brought safely back to Earth
I remember one of the experts saying "We have a computer as big as a room doing millions of calculations"
There is more computing power in your phone now than that computer then.

I know to most of ye kids this probablyl something ye know nothing about

The computer they used to put man on the moon in 1969 had the computing power equivalent of a modern pocket calculator! These kids nowadays have no idea!

Fuckkk Yeah! They've got all this techno knowledge and powerful gear and they can't even string 2 feckinn words together

Yoof Huh no wonder we are fuckinn doomed as a species...

Four Lions a comedy about Jihadists... very good

There's Not ONE I'd bother watching - WHAT A LOAD OF UTTER BOLLOX...

I didn't even know this film existed, it came up on Netflix so I thought I'll give it a go. It turned out to be Excellent:


"Body Of Lies" with Leonardo DiCaprio - who, I didn't rate till I saw Wolf Of Wallstreet.


Highly Recommend Body Of Lies *****

This looks interesting: (Better Call Saul actor - Bob Odenkirk) in a new movie?

The "Elvis" film has "wow" factor that I haven't seen at the cinema for years. Although I'm a huge Elvis and watched it with a highly critical eye the film delivered more than usual stuff you see in Elvis films. Both Austin Butler and Tom Hanks delivered outstanding performances, and one of them must surely win an Oscar. In my view this blows Bohemian Rhapsody away for film biopics.

Can’t beat the old classics, I also watched the dam busters - didn’t realise that Barnes - Wallis, who designed and built the bouncing bomb, had already built Wellington bombers, what an incredible input that man had on the British war efforts.
