Film and TV review.

For Xmas I got a box set of a series called ' The Walking Dead. ' I don't normally go for zombie/horror films but this one was very good. The special effects were very gory and quite realistic.

Has anyone seen Series 2 and if so, is it worth watching ?

Bad news RT, the second series (or at least the first half of it that has been shown on FX) is truly awful.

I loved the first series, this second one has been a major disappointment.

However, it is almost worth watching for the scene where a zombie is stuck in a well. Amazing special effects and very funny.

What happened to the ugly dude who had to saw his hand off ? Does he make an appearance in Series 2 ?

Not so far.

Isn't the loser rating another thread?

Or am I just missing out on some top quality entertainment?

I managed 5 episodes of the Walking Dead before getting totally bored.

how many Zombie films/shows/games do we need it's done MOVE ON.

Has anyone checked out Homeland yet? Best show that came out this year, Claire Danes.

You kept teasing me with this 'Homeland' a few weeks back - I haven't seen it on any tv channel I have.

I watched it online.

but i believe it's been picked up by Channel 4.

I am currently watching 'Harry's Law' on Universal every Monday night.

Really good stuff if you like your legal dramas.

If you haven't seen "Breaking Bad", you need to. Great stuff.

Didn't enjoy it. Malcolm's Dad was better in Malcolm In The Middle.

Was it the one with the parakeets flying past Uluru? If it bwas, I just hope its repeated as I forgot to set my hard-disk.

Yes it was. In Australia, Budgies are as common as Sparrows. They fly in massive flocks so that Falcons can't pick them off. Modern technology is brilliant. Twenty years ago you would never have imagined that you could put an HD camera on a small bird.

I know my ex only ever let me put a normal camera on her a few years ago, how times have changed.



Oh wait you mean.....

I watched Anchorman with Will Ferrell last night for the first time and I have to say I quite enjoyed it. People said it was his best film which kinnda put me off as I have yet to see him in a good film, but I was surprised.

Slightly stupid in parts but in main it was very funny.

I thought it was very funny!

Anyone on here seen a film called ''Sanctum'', directed by James Cameron who did Avatar.

Quite a decent watch if you like underwater films, about a team of cave-divers.

I watched it a few weeks back when it came on Sky. Ok film, but very predictable.

I watched Battle Los Angeles last night. Rubbish.
