So.... having read the book back in 1986, I actually think that the 2 movies are (just about) as good a job as can be made, of what I always thought was an unfilmable story. I loathed the tv miniseries adaptation, but I thought the first movie was superb, whilst chapter 2 was merely good. Personally, I’m looking forward to the 4 hour director’s cut of chapter 2, but I think anyone hoping for deleted turtle scenes is due to be disappointed (although I’d have loved more cosmic ‘out there’ shit).

The Dead Zone (1983) 5/5 Lost count of the amount of times I’ve watched this gem. An understated Christopher Walken in the role he was born to play. Brooke Adams, Martin Sheen, Herbert Lom, Tom Skerritt... Jesus, what a cast! Directed by Cronenberg to boot!! Brilliant and tragic all in one

Peter Jackson’s King Kong (it’s supposed to be in backwards compatible titles, but still hasn’t gone live, so I booted up the 360) and Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth (Xbox). Both wonderful, atmospheric titles.

F.E.A.R. as it’s fucking ace! Dino Crisis 1, 2 & 3 (yes, 3!) cos I’m desperate for a new entry in the series, despite E3 rumours of a reboot/remaster at the Xbox presentation being nothing but a cock tease

Galaga 88 and Saint Dragon and I’ll be very happy!

Where the Hell is bloody Dino Crisis?!? FFS Capcom, come on!!!

I loved X-Men, X-Men 2, First Class and DoFP, but this is a whole heap of crap! Urgh! The sooner Disney/Marvel get going with this, and the FF, the better in my book.

This has, quite literally, restored my faith in ‘modern’ video games. Fucking Hell! I honestly didn’t think I’d ever see the day again!!

PS I Love You. I was dragged to see this by an ex. To this day, it is the only time I’ve ever walked out of a cinema in my life! Utter, utter garbage. Even the ex thought it was poor (yes, she did stay till the end). Thankfully, my Wife is more of a Marvel girl.

Me and the Mrs binged the whole series.... it’s superb! Rather dark, a little moving, and highly recommended. Thanks for the heads up.

Rumours of Dino Crisis.... oh please, oh please, oh please let this be true!

Dino Crisis (built the suspense superbly... re-master or re-boot it now, Capcom!) Gradius R-Type

Bad Boys II

Two that spring to mind are: Things to Do in Denver When You’re Dead and 2 Days in the Valley

Defender and Stargate and then, later on in the 80s, Salamander and Side Arms.
