Rocky IV / Rocky vs Drago - Ultimate Directors Cut.
40 mins of new footage added, but they cut 40 mins of footage to fit it in. This cut makes it less 80's cartoony, and more like Rocky or Rocky Balboa.
I need to watch it again, but after 1 watch, although the new footage was good, I think I prefer the original.

Yeah I seen the trailer for it just there. Seems like they are trying to take the "80s cheese" out of it and make it like the original "Rocky". Don't fancy it.

"MacArthur Park" by the late, great Donna Summer..

Anyone know where I can find the whole film? 

 

 

Willie Thorne, Gary Bushell, and effects that make Rise Of The Footsoldier look like Citizen Kane. @Onyx2 maybe one to add to the list

I can't find it, even to buy on Amazon, but check out the sypnosis..

A tale of love, intrigue, crime, passion, espionage and more importantly a veritable work of art. Transcending zeitgeist to join the pantheon of the gods in eternity. Gatwick Gangsters in an Action Adventure Feature Film, shot in Surrey, London and Kent. Champagne who is crime boss 'Large' stockbroker, borrows his £100,000,000 portfolio overnight, but her account gets hacked and she loses every penny the crime boss has. Faced with a 'do or die' situation she goes on an adventure to get the money back any way she can. Faced with disgruntled gangsters and Mi6 she has to work fast, think on her feet and do plenty of 'wheeling and dealing' and in amongst all this, she foils a plot by King Jamil el Sahara to blow up Gatwick Airport. This is a fast-paced film, gritty and a fresh take on the London Gangster underworld.

My bank alerted me to a pending Amazon charge of £7.99. I had zero idea what this could be for. Amazon also hide their phone number behind some sort of indecipherable Web maze.

It turned out that they had charged me for my wife's Amazon Prime account. Her card had expired. At some point my card had been used when purchasing under her AMAZON account. Therefore they seem to think it was OK to use my card details when the Prime renewal was due. We now no longer have Amazon prime.

There fly Amazon. They'll know your housing living situation. You might have ordered to the same address as your wife? Still a shitty thing to do by Amazon.

Waiting for an Amazon Prime delivery is bloody murder. Could turn up at 10:30pm tonight.

I'd love to see The Rock in some sort of horror film. Not the usual family fare they stick him in. See what he can do.

"Scorpion King" was pretty good IIRC. "Welcome to the Jungle" was alright IMO. Not brilliant.

Good old USA have fairly slipped a wee bit. I hadn't even noticed that they didn't qualify for the last World Cup.

Cage matches. I hate them. Been a few good "Hell in the Cell" ones, but normal Cage matches - urghhh.

Today I Learned the voiceover bit in the video for Slave To The Rhythm by Grace Jones was done by Ian McShane. 

Ian McShane was "doing her" at the time too. He got his fair share in the 80s. He also went out with Sylvia Kristel. All behind his wifes back, I believe.

I remember reading in one of those old football magazines that when the San Marino team actually started, they thought they could pick Italian players, but that went tits up quite quickly.

I consider myself a bit of a fan of San Marino and have followed them for years after enjoying a trip there with Wales in 2007. But fuck me, they're going backwards if anything.

Aye, check out the 2021 results section..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Marino_national_football_team

Biggest win: 1-0 vs Liechtenstein in 2004.

I always feel sorry for San Marino. Playing their hearts out, but they're basically a pub team with a few ringers.

ADDED: Probably something "Sensible World of Soccer" related.

Remember when they got humped 7-1 by Paul Lamberts Colchester and responded by sacking the manager and hiring Paul Lambert?

Yeah and I remembering thinking "that's a bit dodgy".

Yeah, Mumzie always used to mention that. He was a child actor. So he was in the acting game for a long time before the genius that was "Quantum Leap" came along.

Any Premiership team can have Steven Gerrard. He's seriously all over the place this season. Goalkeeper and defence are absolutely shocking. Still top though,

Eh? I haven't heard that one. What's that all about?

ADDED: A quick Google search brought me up to speed.

I imagine the Norwich job is Steve Bruce's if he wants it.

Definately a more buffer Scholesy.

Finally got to watch Dune. I totally get why people wouldn't like it, but I loved it. I'm a huge fan of the book series anyway, and I even loved the Lynch film, but it just smashed my expectations. 

I loved the Lynch 80s version. I can kind of see why people crap on it (TOTO doing the soundtrack?!?!) and the story arc, but I thought it was quite an acceptable 80s sci-fi film. I've seen far worse.

Onto Italian horrors past the cinema times, watch the original "Green Inferno" from about 1985. Was also released as "Cannibal Holocaust 2" over here. It's bloody hilarious. Somebody done a great 80s keyboardy soundtrack and his name escapes me. Whole thing is fun. It's like a music video. It even ends with a brass band walking through the streets - come on.

Yeah the Heenan line spoiled nothing. At that point you’d have expected Hogan to be the good guy no matter what. Anyone claiming otherwise since is just trying to be too clever. The Brain always thought the worst of hogan so it was in no sense a giveaway before anyone knew what he’d do 

Line I find most cringe-worthy from that is when the Brain says "Do you see the Hulkmaniacs with tears in their eyes?" about five seconds after he turned.

And they put all the shite on at the weekend as well, hardly any Bluey or Hey Duggee.

"Hey Duggie!" is a tremendous show. I watch it with my nephews. I think the gimmick could go down quite well in the grappling.

Just about to post this as I've forgotten about it recently. Good job!

Granada's Luis Suarez (not him) hits an important penalty against Getafe. Ball last seen past Neptune...

Chic Young was always a wee arsepiece. Is he still doing the Radio Clyde? It's tremendous how many "F" words are dropped there and it is a stupid fucking question.

Ghostwatch is one of those shows that you had to experience "live" to fully understand. Looking back on it now, the acting from much of that cast is soo wooden and crap(although, the non-actors like Parky, Sarah Green etc are really believable) that you wonder how you could be taken in by it. But live, it was truly terrifying. 

You can truly believe that Michael Parkinson was the spawn of Satan in that show. He was excellent.

Bit with the snakes freaks me out. I'll say no more.
