The_Rev Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Lots of nudity in there, but you (and I mean anybody who is reading this thread) should really read the book before seeing the film. It's one of the greatest books ever written. Another recommendation for Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes - really decent and didn't rely on explosions and action to make it a decent film. Great cast, good plot and brilliant sfx! I havent seen anything of this other than the trailer, but I want to know how the **** the apes have a chance against us humans? We outnumber them massively and we have guns. And tanks. And fighter jets. And napalm. How does the war last more than five minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Thats what I thought, but it's not a war (yet) apparently - they just escape from a facility into a forest :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Watched that 'Page Eight' on BBC2 earlier and thought it was rather good. Decent acting throughout and I thought it was shot very well for the most part. Certainly one of the better things I have seen on TV recently. The ending was the only thing that I thought let it down a bit, along with the drop in sound for the last ten minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Watched the proposal and thought it was ok easily one of the better rom coms I've seen recently, all about Steve which was awful and takers which had it's moments but the majority of it has been done to death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Saw this tonight at local cinema - was rather good, having seen another film on the same subject, La Rafle a couple of weeks it was interesting to see another take on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Indeed, 'Sarah's Key' was a good film. The only thing that I didn't like was that the transition from past to future (and the other way) was clunky at times. Other than that I thought it was well made with some top acting.

hogso Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I watched Monsters (nuneaton reprzent) last night and it wasnt nearly as good as I was told it is. Basically it's a soppy love story bleeeeeeghhh and not a very good one at that. Still, not bad for a directorial debut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 ok then a question for the pirates here (I know there are some out there) A girl at work has just bought one of those new fandangled 3D TV's and wants to know if you can download 3D DVD's or not I told her I have only seen BLURAY copis and never any 3D ones any one got a definitive answer please (also if you can download them would it take a different type of disc to a normal DVD/BLURAY one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I'm pretty certain it doesnt make any difference if the film is 3D, you'd still be able to copy it like you would any other DVD or Blu-Ray to a blank disc. I say pretty certain as it's something I've never done, but I do know that certain DVD & Blu-Ray ripper/burner programmes allow you to transfer standard 2D films into 3D when you burn them onto a new disc. As for downloading, I guess there may be 3D rips around? Never looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Yes, I can't wait to see them make it a 12A, put it in 3D, and change the ending because the American audience won't stand for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never looked. yes, there are torrents available in 3D for downloading. i guess they would work fine playing them on a 3D tv, otherwise why would there be so many seeders/leeches uploading/downloading it. obviously, this is from a friend of a friend as i would never download illegally :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted August 30, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted August 30, 2011 ok then a question for the pirates here (I know there are some out there) A girl at work has just bought one of those new fandangled 3D TV's and wants to know if you can download 3D DVD's or not I told her I have only seen BLURAY copis and never any 3D ones any one got a definitive answer please (also if you can download them would it take a different type of disc to a normal DVD/BLURAY one I'm pretty sure that if you want to download a 3D film to be played on a 3DTV, you need to download the actual Blu-ray release of it, and then burn it onto a Blu-ray disc. You wouldnt be able to do it onto a DVD as they just aren't big enough. I've just had a look on a website and it seems the average size of a blu-ray 3d download is about 13GB. You'd then also need a Blu-ray burner, and blu-ray blank discs etc.... I'm not too sure on what the policy is on here for actually discussing pirated material, so if this needs to be deleted, apologies mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itdoesntmatterwhatthissay Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Watched the guard and the inbetweeners, both very funny for different reasons, the guard probably edged it for me some bits had me having to cover my mouth due to laughing so loud, unsurprisingly the inbetweeners also has some brilliant bits but suffers from most of the things I didn't like from the show, Simon being inept with women, will being a bit of a clearing in the woods although jays bullshit is minimal Would you say it was more like the first and second season then? The third season quite literally pissed me off, far too many sex crap, clunge this clunge that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Clunge isn't mentioned once iirc! Many other words for it though, simon talking about carly got old fast, still worth watching though neill has some quality moments in it and the dance scene is brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDon Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 ok then a question for the pirates here (I know there are some out there) A girl at work has just bought one of those new fandangled 3D TV's and wants to know if you can download 3D DVD's or not I told her I have only seen BLURAY copis and never any 3D ones any one got a definitive answer please (also if you can download them would it take a different type of disc to a normal DVD/BLURAY one Two choices, either download the 3D blu-ray iso, which will play like a normal blu-ray disc. Or, download the 3D SBS rips, these have each frame "side by side" which the tv will then either auto detect, or can be forced into 3d mode by pressing the 3D button on the remote and selecting side by side, most of them are a horizontal split. The blu-ray isos will be full 1080p, the SBS ones are half the resolution. You can get both HD and SD SBS rips. The 13GB average size PieFacE mentions will be SBS x264 rips, a full 3D blu-ray iso will be anything from 30-50GB. There's no need to burn the ISO's though, most players can play them direct from the image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
