<p>The movie is called restraint.<br><br><strong>I think mentioning a hot actress is naked in a movie without naming it should result in a lengthy ban</strong></p>

<p>I would cop that, but don't you think that mentioning the actress and her hotness and not letting the Fern know that she is naked in a movie when you know the exact movie is ban worthy as well?</p>

<p>I'm not usually a fan of the blondes but she definitely gives me the tingles ....</p> -

<p>I didn't know about that movie till I looked it up after you mentioned . So thank you in a round about way I guess.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I tried posting a fairly innocuous troll on the standard once and unknowingly picked the name of someone who'd aready been banned ,let back, banned again and tried logging in under different names. By fuck they piled into me with the sort of shrillness you'd expect from a bunch of fishwives simultaneously menstruating, it would like signing up here and calling yourself Davidav1. That was enough for me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Btw have you ever come across a weirdo called Redbaiter?</p> -

<p> :mocking: That's classic!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Redbaiter is classic - it took me about 4 read posts until I figured out where he/she sits.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I would never post on any right wing blog ... I just come here and get piled into with the sort of shrillness you'd expect from a bunch of fishwives simultaneously menstruating.(TBF we have pretty decent discussions around here most of the time).</p>

<p>To keep on topic. Teresa Palmer is in a movie called Take Me Home Tonight with Eric from That 70s Show. Not a great movie but she's in it.</p> -

You posted enough identifying pieces of information for a successful google search. Good work. -

As were the jokes. Hangover 3 sucked from every angle. Fast forward to the end credits.<br><br>

<p>At least it is over!</p>

<p>It got a few laughs from me, so would be a tad more generous with my rating, but not a great deal...</p> -

<p>It was better than the second one. that's the most I could say for it.</p> -
<p>Seen a few movies recently</p>
<p>Jobs - (Steve Jobs biography) Surprised by how much I enjoyed it, not sure how accurate it is but a good watch 8/10</p>
<p>Rush - (F1 rivalry James Hunt - Niki Lauda) Best movie I've seen in a while 10/10</p>
<p>World War Z - (Zombie apocalypse) Enjoyed it, even had a few frights on the way 7/10</p>
<p>The Internship - (Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, ageing salesman trying to get a job with Google) Watched it out of boredom, good easy watch 6/10</p>
<p>Carrie (Original Horror from 1976) -Finally understand 30 + years of references to this film, considering its age it holds up ok 6/10</p> -

<p>Oh - Iron Man 3. Watched it while I was off last week for chuckles. Pretty cool I thought. The next Avengers movie will have to be balls-out awesome to beat this and the last Avengers movie.</p>

<p>The next Thor and Captain America films look to be maintaining the standard as well. It's pretty amazing to have this consistent thread through so many films, something for the Star Wars crowd to look to emulate with stand alone films they are looking at separate from Episode VII</p> -
<p>Beyond the Edge - worth a watch. If you have already seen the numerous docos based on the footage taken during the expedition when Hillary and Tenzing 'knocked the bastard off' then you'll find a lot of it appearing again. What they have done, though is added new footage (some of it stunning) of the mountain and re-enacted the stages of the climb above the South Col (which hadn't been filmed). The editing is very good and the actors shot's taken on Mount Cook blend seamlessly into footage taken up Everest itself.</p>
<p>It is a kiwi-centric view and although rightly lauding the work and tenacity of Hillary and Lowe they did seem to downplay some of the poms efforts. I'm OK with that as the original docos were the opposite.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As an aside I saw this in 3D hoping for some eye popping scenic shots. Sorry, but I just don't get this fascination with '3D'. It's not 3 dimensional at all, just quite obvious layers of 2D. It's like looking through a kid's viewfinder. I found it gimmicky and offputting.</p> -

This is the end - and it very nearly was after 1 hour 45 or so....granted there were a few laughs' but basically it was a bunch of mates filming a party and then imagining what would happen if the apocalypse came, oh and they were obviously high when writing the story...M4L will hate it, didn't see nearly enough of Emma Watson....

<p>I watched the documentary Blackfish yesterday. It is about the plight of Orcas in captivity, and focuses in particular on SeaWorld and Tilicum, the male that has been involved in the killing of three people. Very much worth a watch.</p>

<p>The Purge - set in the US in about 10 years, with almost no unemployment or crime; with the exception of an annual 'Purge' where for 12 hours, anything goes, even murder. I liked it, a bit of tension, ok story and acting (lead by Ethan Hawke and Lena Headley, also thought Rhys Wakefield was pretty goor as the 'Polite leader') but best of all, it didnt overstay it's welcome at only 1.26 hours!</p>

<p>Jeez The Rock has been bloody busy recently!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Pain & Gain - WTF! Not sure how close this was to the actual story, but can only assume it cant be too far off as you couldnt make that sh!t up! SOme of it was seriously stupid, it was funny!!</p>

<p>Just watched this last night and it was a seriously good black comedy - I nearly fell off my chair when I read that Michael Bay directed it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Marky Mark was touching on his The Departed level of acting and The Rock was hilarious as well ... he's one wrestler who can actually act.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I read a bit about the actual story and obviously it's not that funny in real life but they seemed to have got the idiocy of the guys right.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Only issue I had with it was the length TBH, it could have been 20 minutes shorter.</p> -
<p>Saw captain Phillips last night, apart from Greengrass' get the drunkest barfly to hold the camera technique he seems to love it was up to his usual high standards, if you've seen the doco that came out a few years ago it deviates a bit from that but it's not argoesque in its deviation from the facts.</p>
