New films 2013
 
Some cracking films on torrent at moment:

The Impossible - gives you an idea of the horror of what it must have been like to be caught up in the tsunami. Very moving.

Zero Dark Thirty - as expected, excellent (also includes references to the Khobar attacks and Marriott in Islamabad which some people on this forum will remember)

Django Unchained - MINT

The Hobbit - wish I'd gone to the cinema to watch it now.

Hitchcock - still not watched it, on tonights viewing list.

I downloaded Django last night, it's on tonight's viewing list.

Forgot about Zero Dark Thirty, will nip over to those pesky pirates later for that one.

Looking forward to some Eusie MacGregor action in The Impossible.

Was in Phuket on the 8 yr anniversary and some of the subtle tributes were quite moving...plus the signs in the stairwells - down in case of fire, up in case of tsunami

downloads of movies, you download them into a torrent form to view them (kind of)

That begs the question.

Thanks, some good ones there that I'd heard / seen / read about and then forgotten.

A place in Spain.

But also, a file type which contains data on the location of the file data you are downloading. It will assemble the file once it is fully downloaded, as this is done in chunks. I think. Welcome to the internet.

That actually good then? I thought it sounded/looked pretty dull so ignored it when it was out.

Anyway, yify is a pretty decent spot for movies if no one else has seen it, but not for pre-releases.

I watched Zero Dark Thirty last weekend. It was rather good although I raised an eyebrow at the nightclub scene in Kuwait. Worth a watch.

I haven't watched Hitchcock yet, but made for UK made for TV film called The Girl, about Hitchcock and Tippi Hedron was pretty good.

Django Unchained.

Watched it last night, brilliant film.

I watched Skyfall this week, I got an excellent torrent. Great film well worth watching (Obviously unedited, unlike here)

We did wonder about the nightclub in Kuwait, but then again it's not beyond the realms of possibility (although I doubt you could just turn up on the door).

Just watched Zero Dark Thirty, not a patch on Django Unchained, which, I think, is better than Skyfall.

So, top three thus far

Django Unchained
Skyfall
Um....

Over Christmas I have watched.... The Hobbit ( at the cinema and at home)
Skyfall, Les Miserables, Life of Pi, The Impossible, Django, Lincoln, Warrior and Lawless. (I had quite a few days off!! :D)

The last 2 were very good, I think Tom Hardy is a great actor, if you haven't seen him in Bronson, you need to see it.
