This occurred during the Apollo 1 mission. On January 27, 1967, a fire broke out in the command module, killing all three astronauts board: Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Edward H. White II, and Roger B. Chaffee. This incident made Nasa replace monkeys with electric computers.</blockquote>

I watched it here: https://filmboards.com/board/10031835/
The 4th print was nice and sharp.
Saw the film yesterday and enjoyed it. I'm baffled by the low IMDb score and assumed it's the usual suspects piling in to rate it as a 1 (admittedly it's also heavy on the 2,3,4 ratings as well). Personally I enjoyed it more than Deadpool and Wolverine.
But you're right about the marketing. I don't see any trailers in the cinema and can't remember when I became aware of it. Either it popped up because I was looking at Haley Bennett's credits (a much under appreciated actress) or I just happened to notice it was on at the local cinema.
I've got a directors signed copy of the dvd somewhere - though it's been years since I watched it. I think escaping the IRA to make a sequel would have been a ridiculously contrived moment and greatly handicapped the rest of the film.
Spotted in the crowd in Edinburgh yesterday watching Scotland (or perhaps just van der Merwe) beat England. I regretfully observed no evidence of a Greggs sausage roll - neither in hand or the inevitable trail of flaky crumbs.
Yeah, but it was a cute, funny, self-deprecating scene (from a Disney POV) - I liked it.
I think a big attraction for this program was the alternative history approach - but as it diverges further from our reality it gets less interesting.
a human coding error. I'd be curious to see what kind of error leads to -> Nuke LA.
I liked it. There were liberties taken with the story and a hefty dose of modern sensibilities but I thought it was fun.
Yes.
Every now and then there will be something silly that people who like to be outraged will get outraged about but generally it's for the greater good. I like ballet & opera & Shakespeare and if it takes extra funding to get those out to the sticks and into schools then I think it's money well spent. It also supports the small stuff - which even if it looks amateurish and bit rubbish could well be the first steps for some peoples career and is a satisfying community activity for the others.
Plus, every now and then someone produces figures to show that as an investment it returns it's value several times over in the UK's TV and Film industry and the tourist attracting Theatres - so you can justify in purely economic terms.
