Watched a pretty good Valencia F1 race Sunday,then England/Italy.....Go Germany
 
I saw the ad for the Abe Lincoln vampire thing on the cartoon networks late-nite "adult swim", I thought it was a joke!

I sometimes think the cartoon channel is about the only thing on TV worth watching. There are good shows but they are few and days between relief. I am forced to watch reruns of Big Bang Theory. Seems like I've seen every episode at least 3 times.
 
Vietnam: Lost Films, An Endless War '68-'69...

Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter ? Did some dude or dudette mistakenly put bleach in whoever come with the ideas coffee?

I was thinking the same thing. Lincoln would be the last president I would have thought to make into a vampire hunter. Maybe something like Teddy Roosevelt, African Safari Vampire Hunter, or John F Kenneday-PT109 Vampire Hunter would have came to mind sooner!
 
Watch "Air Disasters - Target Destroyed (or something like that)" about the Soviet downing of KAL flight 007. Surprised to hear that the investigators placed all the blame of the flight crew, I would have though the MIG pilot could have tried harder to be identified or to identify. Anyway it was a tradgedy, with many factors coming into play...
 
Hobo with a shotgun :shock:
Being a bit of a Guiness man fan (Rutger Haurer), is it any good Andy?- it looked a little bit like usual vast majority of Hwood releases, i.e; crap to give productions crews film industry jobs.

simlarily related to Mr. Haurer, recently watched...

Barbarossa; Siege Lord (Redbeard; the Lord of Siege Warfare) 18/20.
Quite historical, Frederick Hohenstaufen (Frederick 1st of Holy Roman[/German] Empire) verses Milan and eventual 'The Lombard League' with the original 'Company of Death'.
Actually also a reasonabley well acted and emotive film, with accurate historical weapons, clothing, armours etc. Although erronously the cover art shows 15thC plated knight for 'dramitic looks' - as worn by the elder Pendragon in Excalibur for this late 12thC/pre 1st crusade set film (around and after the time of Pope Adrian - the only English born Pope).

Split Second 17/20
Satan comes to a flooded london to feed and torment humanity - police Sgt. Stone and sidekick have to get to the bottom of series of grusome and unreported murders to find who's doing them... "We need bigger guns. We need bigger fuccin guns!"

non haurer related...

Closer to the Edge; the TT 19/20

If you've watched Faster, love motorcycle racing and/or the IOM TT, this is a must. Adds depth and behinds the scenes of 2010 TT, the tributes to Dobbsy via his widow are a tear jerker in true pragmatism and love for the sport. Mostly follows Guy Martin and Craig Wilson Racing, but includes some cool other stuff too for petrol heads - not enough engine sounds though for liking... oh well can't have everything.

This Is Spinal Tap (1984) - IMDb

I probably haven't seen this movie in over 20 years and I found it on TCM's On Demand Channel. I was shocked at all the actors I saw in the first 20 minutes of that film who later went on to bigger things and at least one old school actor in Patrick MacNee. You have Patrick MacNee as the head of a record company, Billy Crystal as the head Mime waiter at a party, Dana Carvey as another Mime waiter, Fran Drescher as the record company party hostess, Bruno Kirby as the Limo Driver, and Ed Begley Jr. as one of the original drummers. These are all I saw but I would not be a bit surprised if I missed a few.
Since it had been at least twenty years since I last saw it in its entirety I wanted to see if I would still like it or if it was just a movie that I remembered fondly because I had not seen it in such a long time. I still haven't seen it in its entirety since I had to leave unexpectedly about half way through but I would have definitely watched it all the way through if I hadn't had to leave. For me anyways the storyline and the script still worked and there were some new levels of subtle satire that completely went over my head when I first saw the movie at 19.

I hope to finish watching it on Sunday.
