Along_the_Wire Jules72 It’s brilliant and properly, properly hard. I’m too much of a bedwetter to do anything hard mind outside of climbing walls.
Dubman I’m exactly the same. I’m quiet happy to do a high altitude trek on my own and even thought about doing a Trekking peak such as Mera peak or long island peak but even though their all fixed rope they are all above 6000 mtr. Everest gets all the glory but there are loads of mountains in himalayas that are much harder to climb. I think my favourite in Nepal would be Ama Dablam or Annapurna South which is a different mountain to Chris Bonington’s Annapurna south face. But the ultimate would be K2 in Pakistan. There is a good doc on Amazon prime called K2 siren of the himalayas.
Jules72 If any of you haven’t read Into Thin Air, you should… incredible story and one of my favourite books of all time
Jules72 Eyes Wide Shut…Stanley Kubrick film about a couple (Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman) toying with infidelity…. complete and utter pretentious nonsense - Kubrick’s worst film? 5/10
jonattonyeah Jules72 Eyes Wide Shut Love that film. It doesn’t make much sense but I like how it looks. The vibe, feel, and look of a film can be enough for me even if the plot is lacking.
Phil-McRackin The Brood. Early Cronenberg film and essentially his version of Kramer vs Kramer following a messy divorce he went through. Oliver Reed scenery chewing and freaky killer kids. It’s no The Fly….or Videodrome…or Scanners.but still has it’s moments.
Dan I’m gonna watch Barton Fink again after many years. Along with Blood Simple there some of my favourite Coen Brothers material. Hold tight for etc etc ….
alistair jonattonyeah Dead Calm and EWS confirmed my Nicole Kidman crush. The dream sequence with her and the naval office is more erotic than any of the party/orgy scenes
Jules72 jonattonyeah whatever you think of the film, the quandary of monogamy vs polyamory vs occasional sex outside a long term relationship is pretty interesting.. despite what all our institutions tell us, our biology doesn’t agree
