24 for me, but loads I wish I hadn't seen.

But delighted by the presence of The Lunchbox, Under the Skin and We are the Best!

"have you seen Sorcerer? it's fucking deadly like." that sort of thing

YES! I have seen Sorcerer. They don't make them like that anymore. A lot of character building and storytelling where you never no where it's going.

Other William Friedkin questions:
Has anybody seen Rampage starring Michael Biehn? Is it good? I have a shitty VHS download of it, haven't watched it yet, don't even know if it's watchable.

Is William Friedkin's book worth picking up?

And last but not least is there a high definition version of To Live and Die In LA in existence?

P.S. Thanks you for letting me know about Dissolve - looks like there are good articles on that site.

Yeah, I've seen Rampage. It's a decent, watchable thriller. Nowhere near his best but it's fairly gripping. Based on a terrifying real life serial killer.

When I hear "Rampage, starring Michael Biehn" I'm like "Sounds hilarious, must give it a watch"

 

[David Kronenbourg]

It's a mix of courtroom and serial killer thriller. Similar to Manhunter a bit

Oh yeah, Friedkin's book is fucking deadly! One of the best film memoirs I've read. He doesn't go into the salacious or sleazy shit so if you're looking for that kind of stuff look elsewhere. He's brutally honest about himself and his bad career choices. Very very good.

I really like this guy Frank Grillo. He was great in Purge Anarchy and I just watched him in Disconnect.
Turns out I've seen him in lots of small parts but haven't really noticed him.

He's also 51 and doesn't look it. He was also on my mom's favorite soap/stories.

I think he's like healthy or something. Has muscles.

 

[Cormcolash]

Fuck me, he's 51!!! Fuck!!! He looks about my age!
Then again, I'll look like that when I'm 51.

Cool I think I'll pick it up soon, I think I might have an Amazon voucher coming my way for my birthday.

He's a solid actor. He's good in The Grey too.
Supposedly the director of that Joe Carnahan wanted Frank Grillo for a Death Wish remake but the studio passed. Now there is a chance it might be back on after Carnahan wrote the head of the studio a letter calling him a cunt etc. Letter leaked, pretty funny shit.

He was Brock Rumlow in that captain america 2, with potential prospects for a Crossbones movie too.

 

[Cormcolash]

Ah he'd be fuckin classss for Death Wish! Not that anyone will beat Bronson at that anyway. No dice.

Well, aren't they remaking that with Liam Neeson every year now?

Maybe Grillo could do whatever revenge thriller Liam can't do.

Looking at what's on the slate for August, not exactly thrilling.

Definitely no problem there!

Definitely no problem there!

They've also decided to continue the Taken franchise but with Pierce Brosnan instead.

August is essentially the big studios garage sale. Stuff they need out but don't really give a fuck about. Sin City 2 for example, It could be good but big studios couldn't give two fucks about Robert Rodriguez and they know they'll make money no matter when it comes out anyway. Other than that it's shit knock off action films, Dramas that aren't "prestige" enough for Oscar season and comedies, usually fucking awful comedies.
