Those shows are pure and utter rubbish! How convenient that on ever single show something happens, did you hear, feel or see that!?

The amount of times that I've passed by, only to wish that a real ghost would show and scare the living daylights out of them!

One of the big names here in the UK, was recently proved a fraud I think....

Burned Notice season 5...

I heard about that, wasn't that the woman that carted around her pet "psychic" and got busted moving stuff around and making noises when they thought the cameras weren't on them? "Most haunted" I believe.

Not too sure pal....

Goldfinger and Thunderball...

F1 Qualifying from Korea, Exeter vs Leinster in the Heineken Cup and 2 games of the Currie Cup...

Kill Zone (Sha Po Lang) Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung, great fight scene at the end...

Snow White and the Huntsman (2012) - IMDb Not bad. Good action/suspense overall, there's a couple of places where I had to stop and actively suspend disbelief (girl locked up in a tower for 15 years all of a sudden knows how to wield a sword effectively enough to lead an armored knight charge? And they had armor that just *happened* to fit her, curves and all?), but it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Fullmetal Alchemist; The Sacred Star of Milos (IMDB, full film length!1h 50mins) 17/20 R15 or PG12+
An anime film based upon (somewhere in or after the Brotherhood series,) of Full Metal Alchemist Edward Elric his brother Alphonse Elric. Another tale of the two alchemistic brothers, who journey about their world aiding those in need, thwarting evil those whom are despicable, solving riddles and gathering intel to aim to restores themselves, while using alchemy; alchemy is a natural science in the world of Full Metal Alchemist.

With a mix of humour, angst, action and anime slapstick while sometime dealing with very mature (Not in the 'adult/xxx' meaning..) themes, ideas and perspsectives concerning a 3 way stuggle for territory between two regional powers and the local and ancient 'Milos' inhabititants whom are reduced to serfdom between the sides.

With family feuds love, dishevled persons living with pride, prideful persons acting arrogantly, death, some blood - via self sacrifice, murder and egotism, the struggle for independance and the twisting of revenge into peaceful hope and vice versa, and how things should ideally be done for the humaneness not just for the sake of dogma, ego power.

Methings this is an quite an aprochriphal (..Aesops Fable like?) story, is likely to banned in a few countries for being 'too close to the bone' in some aspects.

As in, not politically correct?

WWII Secret Army: The Resistance In Torment 1943-44....

Yep, as it appears to me deluded, from their own viewpoint it would likely seem normal to 'em.

The Ghost and the Darkness....was on so I watched....again!

Liked that movie Wayne, but though that the Michael Douglas character was a distraction and really wasn't needed at all for the story line... It seemed to me that as he was involved with the movie financially he felt he should have gotten in front of the camera as well. Any way, my two cents...

Oh, by the way, did you know that the actual lions of Savo were mane-less, though at least one of the was a male? And that you can see the both of them at the Field museum in Chicago?

When ya got the bucks you can play in the sand pit....

No doubt!

Moonraker...

I am amazed at the number of Ghost Hunting/Mythical Beasts shows that are one (at least 6 I can think of), and they never find a damn thing!

I have had some strange experiences over the years. I do not scare easily, nor do I automatically think "ghost" when the house settles. I do not care whether anyone believes me or not. It falls under the heading of, "If you had seen what I did, then you would have seen it", type of thing. I mistrust "true believers" in anything. I try to keep an open mind and use reasonable scepticism when dealing with the unknown.
That being said, I think that the trouble with those shows is they find too much. All these paranormal shows are full of crap for the most part. There is so much blatent fakery carried out that they have no credibility, (see the youtube where Grant of the "Ghost Hunters" is pulling a line fixed to his collar, bad acting and an obvious trick), those shows should be billed as comedy.
The so-called "psychics" out there should be prosecuted for fraud. It is sad that there are people who will exploit other's fears and gulibility for a buck.
It makes it harder to get to the truth. Whatever it may be.

And a lecture from the Royal College of Medicine by Dr Kevin Fong on "Medicine for Mars". It was all about the medical challenges of long space flights, very interesting.

WWI from Above was on TV last night.......
That was interesting!

Gotta agree with you. I believe in the possibility. Same with aliens. I have no absolute solid proof against, nor for....therefore I'm sorta skeptically optimistic. Had plenty of weird things happen to me, too, to keep me from the firm disbelief side of things. As for all those shows, do people really believe that solid proof of ___ is going to air on a TV show filmed 6 months ago? Nope...the networks'll be breaking in to your favorite afternoon shows to bring you "conclusive proof" of _____, complete with talking heads (probably that dude from Ancient Aliens with the space-age hair-do...he wears a tie, therefore he has Authority!) to discuss the ramifications and point out the "obvious" signs leading up to _____ being discovered. The TV shows are just there to drop cliffhangers on you and keep you coming back for more, because the truth is just over the next hill! No really! Seriously, it is! Send funding and we'll prove it to you!

I did catch one documentary on a guy who quit his job to pursue Jesse James' supposed "life after assassination", which was staged, of course (I have seen some pretty darn good arguments using modern forensic science and photographic discrepancies between one of the few photos of him alive, and the photos of the body afterwards...nothing conclusive, but pretty darn telling), after which he went on to be some sort of district manager or paymaster in the Knights of the Golden Circle. The guy traced a bunch of cliff etchings and cave drawings, and actually found a buried KGC cache, an old Mason jar full of gold and silver dollars, none of which was newer than 1885 (I believe), and another site that had a broken glass jar and lid...nearby, they found a gold bar that was roughly made from melting gold coins down, something which the KGC was known to do. They had another hilltop that they started excavating, after ground penetration radar picked up some large disturbances such as caused by digging....the show ended because it was fall, and the ground was too cold for their backhoe to dig all the way down, so they had to "postpone until they could get funding and rent a bigger one". Yep. Nothing proven, one way or another. It was interesting, though, tracing out the possibilities and theories surrounding his "death".

Back on subject, kiddo is watching the original Snow White on DVD. Had to leave the room...there's only so much of her voice that I can take. It is interesting to see the dynamics of male-female relationships playing out, though, based on the accepted roles of males and females of the time. Never really thought about it, but a princess who was raised in a life of luxury finds the dwarves' cottage and automatically starts to cleaning and cooking. Any director trying that today would end up in little pieces, stuffed in a freezer somewhere.

Hawaii Five-0

Terry mentioned "Allo, allo!" on Vaughan"s F4F build, so I thought I would find it.
Can't believe I have never seen this before, Very entertaining.
Rene, "This is my wife"
Resistance girl, "Will she talk?"
Rene, "Incessantly!, But never about anything importaint!" LMAO!!!
