But will they make me feel warm too?!?

The flame-throwers and napalm will. I'll lend you a few on Monday, sadly I don't have one where we defeat the Italians!

I've just ordered 'Kelly's Heroes' for 25p from Zoverstocks, I've never seen it.

Great film , good cast , as mentioned Sutherland also Eastwood , Savalas . Comedy , action plus a good plot .

A bloody good film about the heroes and horrors of war is beneath hill 60 , great film

And good old Netflix settling down to battle of Britain , which reminds me the scene when Christopher Plummer takes Susannah York to lunch is the jackdaw pub just down the road from me although you can't park out the front anymore it's lawn and seating area nice pub though

But can you smoke cigars in the garden?

[oskihen]

Yes you can John spend many a Sunday in the garden during the summer it's just up the road from hawkinge old airfield and near the battle of Britain memorial

I converted an old Chuch into a theatre at Sandgate barracks about five years ago it was built by Italian prisoners of war and you could see the marks in the walls where messerschmitts had strafed the building . Farmers locally still drag up bullets from the plane's locally

Watching 'Blue in the face'.
Not watched this for nearly 20 years. You may find it interesting as it's set in a cigar shop in Brooklyn.
Quite a few big names in it...staring Harvey Keitel. Follow up to 'Smoke'.

Managed to plough through both Taken 3 and The Equaliser on the big (medium) screen tonight,

"Taken 3" was about as good as a taken film where nobody really gets taken could be expected to be, t least I enjoyed it! Neeson continues to OWN that role.

...The Equaliser was saved only by Denzel. It's scary how good that mans 1,000yd stare is. I do think the film could've been a lot better if it wasn't for what basically amounts to a shootout in Home Depot/B&Q/The Workbench.But it certainly wasn't bad.

[TheMonk]

Both are decent action movies, but Equalizer is considerably better IMO.

[PeeJay]

The Equalizer is a good film to watch if you're Lonely

[Wigan]

Although I think denzil is god I think equalizer is one of his worst films

Really? While I agree that it's far from his best works, I do think he's done a few worse ones as well... I actually enjoyed watching it!

I thnk its in part due the fact I seem have gone soft of late and struggle with violent films that I would have enjoyed just a few years ago.
John Wick seemed to be 2 hours of graphic close ups of people being shot in the face

True, John Wick was a considerably inferior movie IMO, but these types of action movies actually help me to relax before getting some sleep... Much more so than comedies or romances.
