anyone in the Uk had trouble with Virgin Internet recently? Today its been down three times for about 2 hours each and everytime its come on the download is 0.01, it will load reddit, not google, sometimes gaf. Probably should have called them but usually this fixes itself.

It's 'cos they're taking away your porn.

I've had an idea for a movie for over 6 years. To this day I still harp back to it. Bill Murray is basically my only choice for the lead role.

It's a sports comedy.

Here's mine: Paddy Kavanagh realises WB Yeats has been killing off all his mates ('cos he's always poeming about them being dead, innit), then Kav falls into some rip in time-space in Monaghan (the county time forgot) and must chase after him 30 years in the past. I didn't have a very successful English A-Level.

Berlin 0:0 Freiburg

Thank God I didn't watch it

Why is it so strange?

Very uncommon to have matches without goals in the Bundesliga.

 

[Hixx]

One day I will hear it from your lips and it'll just CLICK

I have an idea for a film that kind of needs to be made NOW-ish. It stars Al Pacino, and Daniel Day-Lewis, and then a few others I haven't really decided on, and they play themselves (and I had this idea like two years before This Is The End so that conceit is now fucked)

And they meet up at the Academy Awards roundtable luncheon where all the nominees talk shop, and it's the Best Actor one. And they're all cunts, and things get out of hand with pretentious DDL bragging about how many awards he has and Al Pacino smacks him over the head with the Oscar he won for Lincoln and kills him, and all the other actors and the camera man are all like "holy SHIT"

And it all takes place in one house over one afternoon, and Pacino kinda realises there's no way out of this and he has to kill all the rest of the nominees, and there would be a scene where the kettle goes like the train in the Godfather and he shoots Will Smith in the head or something

I don't know I didn't come up with an ending yet

I'd watch it.

 

[Wilbur]

I also have an idea for a TV show and it takes place in the near future and a criminal gets his hands on time travel technology and keeps jumping through different eras of time and there's one cop who chases him but eventually they become close or something and one episode is in egyptian times and the other in victorian times and then one in 2450 and then ones in the 60s and shit but it would cost so much to do

help me

An Irish poet deathmatch type horror movie? Down.

 

[Linius]

With all this script talk it's about time I write a script. It will be finished in ten years with my speed.

Then I'll mail it to Hollywood to see it turned into a movie five years later without anyone ever letting me know a thing. Just like someone there wrote it. Then I'll write a book about that and sell the movie rights to the book about the boy who wrote the script to a hundered million dollar movie and never got the credits for it.

 

[Broder Salsa]

We could do a low budget movie, I got time. Yurt can be in it too for sex appeal.

With a fine Dane on board this movie is bound for success.

Sounds like Serious Sam the Series

 

[Hixx]

That nymphomaniac story on the Daily Mail website.

The fucking pictures

I'm creased

Is she trying to look sexy?

She looks ancient for 24.

 

[Yen]

Watching 'A Fistful of Dollars'.

There'll never be a partnership as good as Leone and Morricone.

Such a boss. Watching the S2 premiere tomorrow, Mads for president.

Good night lads.

 

[Salvadora]

Is Mads Mikkelsen considered a national treasure in Denmark?

I hope so.

 

[L1NETT]

That's still on?

Yup

And that episode which just aired was about forty times better than whatever Sherlock Series 3 was

Long live Creek.

 

[KidA Seven]

Here's my movie:

Setting: A big city with a lot of night shots of all the city has to offer with shoegaze, sax (no instrument masturbation), etc.. music accompanying some of the shots like in Lost in Translation.

Characters: 1. Any tall guy with great acting skill and great fashion sense that makes him look like some guy I want to be. Someone like Brad Pitt who I can mancrush over and will ponder life at night with great jeans, a cig, and no shirt on.

I want the story to be about unattainable/unsustainable love that takes place outside of the main character's demanding job. The job can be anything (no sports or teaching) from being a detective, engineer, salary man, etc.. so long as it's stressful.

Must have great dialog.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Don't really know, I mean people like him and all but... It's not like he has some crazy popularity beyond many others. At least I don't think so, what do I know, I barely watch movies.

 

[GQman2121]

I hope so.

I really loved him in After The Wedding. There's something about his eyes.

 

[Arnie]

Right, so, bare with me.

In Boardwalk, Nucky is a character who, despite his obvious intelligence, has done some stupid and illogical shit for a bit of pussy.

Then he's in a foreign city, in a random hotel, someone offers to send some pussy up to his room and he opts for a warm shower.

Fuck off.

 

[fuenf]

all this awesome TV series talk My ISP (fuck IPV6 cable) screwed me out of getting U.S. shows and Itunes etc. only offer the usual crap as premieres there's no legal way to watch Hannibal S2 in Germany right now :/

 

[Wilbur]

The FootyGAF Movie

2002. Scotland. Real Madrid win their ninth Champions League. Somewhere in Honduras, a little boy has taken off his black and white shirt and put on a plain white one. Somewhere in Slovenia, a casino worker has cursed him.

Can Plugejandro defeat the curse that holds back the mythical La Decima? Will Zabojnik The Yellow King's curse doom both the Honduran and FIGC to eternal damnation? Will Elsk ever get an alt account? Will I stop asking questions? Am I Hitcher?

BECAUSE HE'S IN LOVE WITH SALLY WHEET

I think. I can't remember what you're talking about. Is he in Florida right now?

 

[Irminsul]

You survived. You have the temperament of a warrior. Nowadays, I just want Leverkusen, Holzhäuser, Hyppiä and Völler to disappear altogether in a black hole.

Is there something I'm not getting? Why? I mean, if you want to look at teams underperforming, there are pretty surely far worse contenders than us.

Holzhäuser isn't with us any more, btw., for some months.

Also, as we sang several years ago (and I'm sad we don't do this any longer): "Schalker kann doch jeder sein" ("Everyone can be a Schalke fan"). Also applicable for Dortmund, Bayern, etc., of course

 

[arkon]

Thats why I'm so skeptical. Maybe Galafinakas can rock it. I'll give you the IMDB plot description.

"A young boy growing up in the boroughs of New York with an overprotective single mom, the boy tried his hardest to make friends and fit in but just couldn't do it until he saw his first basketball game. He right then and there decides that will be his career and tries to acheive that goal. The caveot being that his overprotective mother won't let him leave his stoop(essentially a front porch) unless its to and from school and the closest basketball hoop is 4 stoops down. So the only way to practice is to shoot once at that hoop 4 stoops down and save up for another ball. Eventually he gets so good he consistently makes the super long shot perfectly and the ball returns to him. He gets discovered by a College coach who offers him a scholarship. The coaches strategy was to keep the game as close as possible until the final seconds and then bring him in to make the halfcourt....... BUZZER BEATER"

The name of the movie is Buzzer Beater.

Theres so much room for plot twists and shit like that. My main one is he can only make long range shots from beyond the 3-point line so teams finally catch on and start fouling him forcing him to take free throws which he explodes over the hoop cause he's not used to it. Thats the obstacle, throw a female in, maybe some drugs and you have a masterpiece.

Sounds like it'd make a decent anime in the vein of stuff like Ippo, Major etc..

do you live in Leverkusen?

 

[Irminsul]

No, but close enough

(i.e. close enough to allow a season ticket including international and cup games, meaning I'll have to get there on weekdays sometimes)

 

[fuenf]

Germany sounds awful

it is when it comes to television itunes offers a few series right after they premiere in the states but it's mostly network television. True Detective airs on Sky here but that's 25€ a month with a 2 year contract. (30 if you want to add Bundesliga / or CL&Formula1 and 40 if you want both). I don't know, I might do it once Game of Thrones S4 airs but I can't really afford to commit that much money.

[Milchmonster]

I feel disconnected to my German friends lately. I try to hype Arrow or True Detective but it doesn't work with them. Watching shows in English? A no go for them. They are all just living their German lifes. Gaming? Almost none of them.

Dress as Dante at Karneval. Or alternatively, grow a huge cunt and go as Mario Götze.

On the subject of movies, I have this nagging feeling that someone will eventually try to remake the Godfather. And it will be horrible.

And I don't mean a homage of it. Im talking about same characters, same plot.

 

[Yen]

If Fassbender doesn't win Best Supporting Actor then I don't know. Would also like to see Bullock (I expect Blanchett or Streep to get it, and I hope neither do) and Cuaron win.

 

[Wilbur]

Nah, they'll leave it alone. Most remakes are things that can be improved. No one's touched Citizen Kane, don't think they'll touch Godfather too. If you look at all the remakes we've had, very few have been of legitimately great films.

 

[Yurt]

Why would Bullock win for Gravity? She did nothing.

that's like someone trying to replace SAF.

no way but down

Leto's going to win (even if I think Fassbender and Abdi were miles, miles better). Bullock is probably only third or fourth favourite at this point (not Streep! Blanchett has it locked up, unless people think Amy Adams is due), and Cuaron should win Best Director after winning all the guilds.

The law firms are all over that site here, you pretty much get hit with an cease-and-desist order immediately and have to pay around 500-1000€ in attorney fees (for their troubles to send you said letter)... it's crazy. I used a private site, but thanks to IPV6 and DSLITE I got stuck behind a carrier-grade NAT without anyway to forward ports. Worst part is that I had to quit watching Archer Vice 3 episodes in... shit happens.

 

[Yurt]

why can't we give an Oscar to Johnny Depp?

he's getting old

That's what I was thinking, but if sometime down the line a studio is desperate for a movie with a chance of success, they'll consider remaking a classic.

The Ribéry of acting innit

 

[Broder Salsa]

Because he doesn't deserve one and constantly craps around in shitty Tim Burton movies.

With that said, this does look like awesome company

 

[fuenf]

Jack Sparrow deserves one for playing Johnny Depp playing an Indian in the Lone Ranger Trailer (haven't seen the film).

Just watched "Open Hearts". Great film. Mads really is incredible.

God damn. True Detective may be GOAT TV show.

When's Leo getting his Oscar?

They're not going to Peter O'Toole him, are they?

 

[K1LLER7]

True detective is good.

Johnny Depp has been good around three times in twenty years. Fuck Johnny Depp.

I don't think they'll touch the classics. It's normally just eighties shite they remake haha.

 

[Broder Salsa]

dem Dogme95 movies. My favorite of them is Festen/The Celebration, really brilliant movie. The Idiots by Lars von Trier is good too, even with the sudden hardcore sex scene.
