The Movie Thread

Because it only has two excellent scenes and the rest are trash compared to Tarentino's earlier work?

That opening scene though.

Thats one the two, the other is the bar scene.

I don't think I've ever seen him in a bad film

Superman The Quest For Peace. Bloody terrible.

Other than that he picked some fab roles

With the passing of Gene Hackman the Disney app has a load of his films to push, nothing like monetising a death.

Also we should mention the passing of Michelle Trachtenberg at 39, probably most remembered from Buffy.

Yeah, really sad to hear about that too - hadn't realised she had health issues, saw that she had a liver transplant last year

Grew up watching things she was in, from Pete and Pete, to Harriet The Spy, to Buffy to Eurotrip

In my opinion her best performance was playing Marina Oswald in Killing Kennedy. (The wife of Lee Harvey Oswald in the aftermath)

They've also just announced a Buffy reboot with at least Sarah Michelle Geller confirmed as coming back.

Yeh, no different to when a musician passes.

Among my favourite Gene Hackman roles other than Superman, are Unforgiven, Crimson Tide. Actually got to watch the French Connection. One classic I never got round to watching.

This was not the evening to finish watching the apprentice.

After tommorow evening I'll have seen every best picture, director, screenwroter actors, actress main and supporting nominee for this year's oscars. Which Ive managed for the first time.

Not I can get angry at the winners from a completely fair viewpoint.
