Comes across a nice fella and that accident caused his suicide for sure. 100% it did. Best thing I've seen in a long time I forgot how good they were . Some of the old unreleased footage that was from his personal recordings with Kylie and Helena Christenson was brilliant. Sad very sad. I'd forgotten what scumbags our shitrag press are too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Spice Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Well, I have now access to Netflix in Bali. My DVD player is connected to the net, so I can watch Youtube vids on the TV. Proudly switching it on to show my technical skills to my son, and he goes "Hey you have Netflix also ?" Me : Yeah, I have the logo but no subscription Him : Never mind, use mine ! Me : Yours is in France ! No problem, digs up his phone, launches the app, type in his password, and there we go. Told me he can have 6 different connections, so it should be ok. So today I tried again, and visibly it works ! Binge watch the whole S1 of "The Bodyguard" ! And visibly I escape the Indo censorship as well !

Golfingboy Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Starting to watch Season 3 of 5 this week. Very good, it’s Norman from Psycho, but set in present day West Coast USA. Freddie Highmore is a great actor IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfingboy Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Anxious for tomorrow. Have a free PPV rental and Joker comes out. Have been told Joaquin’s performance is even better than Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight. Let’s see..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost none talk of their cycles.As I was 'involved in the steroid scene' for a few years I got to hear of some of the pro cycles and some were frightening in their amount. Thousands of milligrams a day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No cable TV or fiber connection in da jungle. In fact I dont even have a TV in my quarters. Books and movies on my laptop are enough. There is satellite TV in the main house, but I never watch it, and soon to come internet by satellite but I doubt it will be high speed. But Netflix is good. I am surprised about the quality !

Do you get eg Mindhunter, Narcos, Blacklist, Sons of Arnachy? All worth a watch. Any chance you can get an unlimited 4G mobile streaming package in the jungle? That would work.

Not French content mate, in fact havent seen any French movie on the list yet. And all movie are in original version, not dubbed. I'll grab a few screenshots tmrw. And I can use the "search" option. Thats how I looked up today's movies. And yes, as you say, there seem to be some great movies and series on there. Will check for the 4G thing in the jungle !

Thai Spice Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Just watched this Based on a true story, including the crash of the UN Secretary General's plane, probably shot down, the case is still not really clear till now. Synopsis : "8 of 10 for the genre. In 1961, during the Cold War, the UN sends 155 Irish Soldiers to keep the peace in Jadotville in what is locally known as the Congo Crisis. Katanga broke away from the Congo in the south, and as it turns out, Jadotville locals mostly supported the Katangans. To make matters worse, the richest, coveted vein of uranium in the world is in the balance. During this 6-day siege, the Irish prove themselves to the last bullet, in this real-life event. --- Starring Jamie Dornan and Mark Strong, this film indeed achieves intense realism as the Irish defend an unenviable position, and we learn some history previously hush-hush until recent times. It is presumes the Katangans wanted UN captives to bargain with in their bid for Independence from Congo. Incidentally, Irish field uniforms were pretty cool too. It's a solid film, and while it didn't require a huge budget to make, it does not have a low-budget feel, at all. Starring Jamie Dornan and Mark Strong. Enjoy!" And : "I thought this might have been a bit of sleeper, but I watched it for the story. This is a great film. My concern was, as with so many 'True' stories, the pacing.. This is film starts well, and just carries right through. Great pacing, good cinematography, very good acting and a script with no 'oh come on' moments. The only down side is the fact its true and how great acts of valour are turned into cowardice foe politics. These troops were up there with the soldiers of Rorke's Drift. All in all, I think this is solid 9." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not religious and just thought it had a pretty good shout at current happenings in today's society etc etc... I am a deep thinker sometimes , but I loved it personally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
