Born Hunter 17,637 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) I think I've watched this a few times now over the years. I find it fascinating, particularly the modern resurgence of mercenaries in the form of 'Private Military Companies' since the fall of Rhodesia. Great documentary and touches on some well known shady shit. Edited August 7, 2020 by Born Hunter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonjon79 13,340 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 After seeing this on FB today, I might watch it tonight. I'm not a big Monty Python fan but, The Holy Grail is f***ing hilarious (I often wonder how my old Sunday school teachers would react ) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baldcoot 2,352 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 He has a wife you know ,her namme iss "Incontinentia ,Incontenentia Buttocks " ,totally camp delivery just cracks me up ,good choice Jon Jon . Dont forget the catholics scene from "The meaning of life" where there,s a horrible slopping noise and a baby drops out so the "mum " tells her daughter to put it with the others and she opens a cupboard crammed full of kids .Timeless mickeytaking . 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 " Danger Close ". Seemed like a nicely unromanticised portrayal of some ANZACs having a vile time in Vietnam. Brought home, very nicely, just how much shit can actually go down within such a small area. I'd never thought of that before. All in all? Yeah. Worth a look. Nice, for once, not just having the septic's telling us how they won the war! Oh ... Wait ..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baldcoot 2,352 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 Yep they never forgave us for kicking the commies out of Malaysia but refused to help them in Vietnam ,where they got ass no 1 handed to them on a plate . Throwing unwilling conscripts to the wolves doesnt work ask general Galtieri of the Argentine army junta . Like the film u571 again merican bullfeathers where they recover the enigma machine ,sorry no you didnt chum.Poles gave us their enigma machine and HMS Bulldog captured the first navel machine in May 1941 and you didnt turn up till November . Dont think Merican history books were written by the same peeps as ours ? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 " Worlds Most Wanted ". Series, rather than a film. Just finished episode 3? 'White Widow' kunt? It's seriously starting to show a theme here; Rubbing our faces in the fact that some higher force will always support and facilitate terrorism, against Us. As long as it suits Them. Don't bother.

Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 " Upgrade ". Nope. Shitty, childish sci fi. Blade Runner was sci fi done well. This was just shitty and childish. I've just switched it off with fifteen minutes to go. Because I'm sure I'll find something better to do with that time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But, Denzel Washington's one of my top five favourite actors. He's also an absolutely stand up bloke. Like another of my all time favourites; God. aka 'Morgan Freeman'. Type " God " into any worth while search engine and Morgan would be top of the page Quote Link to post Share on other sites
