fantastic beasts and where to find them... enjoyed it. if you like the harry potter series then of course this is right up your street.  I brought the child with me who is 7, have to say there were a few jumpy and dark moments that some kids might get upset by.

Enjoyed it too.

Certainly dark by Harry Potter standards. Would think twice about bringing kids.

Watched Masterminds, very funny, very good show.

An oldie from 1976 on Netflix but.....

Network

Apparently it was considered outrageous at the time, but it forecast reality TV, corporations trumping States and FOX-like TV where ranting about anything was more important than facts.

This article is a bit too critical of the film imho, but it makes some good observations: http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20161125-network-at-40-the-film-that-predicted-the-future

Is calling a film/movie a "show" an ulster or gaaboard thing?

[Up The Middle]

Calling it a "good show" is probably more of a british thing.

Never heard of a film being called a "show" in Birmingham.

Surely "showtime" and "going to the show" are Americanisms.

The Show Me State.

Nordies need to be alerted to the 'britishisms' infiltrating their daily language and finding their way onto this board.
Cheers.

"Jolly good show old chap", wtf? I don't think I've ever heard anyone utter those words except maybe in a film or television programme.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1941) with Spencer Tracey, Ingrid Bergman and Lana Turner is an excellent film.

Incredible acting.

Yes, why?
