have you seen the tv series?

[–] AndyKing1967 (39875) a year ago

Not yet, I will eventually.

Last one.

1,2 & 4. I'm sure Ripper's victims were unfortunates beforehand, more after.

2 is very good. it's amazing how these explorers didn't like each other, the competition was fierce.

Honestly, those all sound pretty interesting! As a fan of the LA Noire video game I'd probably go with the Black Dahlia one first...

[–] mtxmind (3296) a year ago

#1 would be my pick.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78629) a year ago

They sound interesting but I go with The Black Dahlia book first.

Question: did you see that Chernobyl mini series on Netflix a year or so ago and if so how accurate do you think it was after reading the book?

[–] [deleted] a year ago

i thought he series was really good. the only problem were all the british accents.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78629) a year ago

Funny how a generic English accent gets used so often in movies.
Ron Perlman sported one in Enemy At The Gates which made no damn sense:)

[–] Stratego (31086) a year ago

I'm sure those people didn't speak English in real life either...

[–] Padeen (6459) a year ago

Book #2 is right down my alley. Mountains of the Moon is a good movie based on their journey.

[–] MovieManCin2 (26342) a year ago

Number 4.
