I think he was great in Draft Day, Wag the Dog, Demolition Man, The Thomas Crown Affair and Operation Dumbo Drop.

Is now a good moment to mention Antichrist? ;)

No internet in the Toc house so I bought up a bunch of DVDs from home and a flatpack 9 cube bookshelf. Assembled the bookshelf, went out for dinner then kicked back and watched Lone Wolf McQuade.

Love the scene where they bury him unconscious in his 4x4, he wakes up, tips half a beer over his head, drinks the rest, starts the 4x4, engages supercharger and blast out from under 3 tonnes of dirt.

Ghostbusters Afterlife.

Loved it, that's how you do a sequel 30 years down the track.

Picked up a pile of classic Australian films on DVD at Melbourne’s last video store: The Coca-Cola Kid, The Last Wave, Mouth to Mouth, Razzle Dazzle and (to watch with Ingmar) Storm Boy. Been so long since I’ve rented DVDs, but nice to do it while it’s still possible!

Yeah, I must confess I enjoy the process of picking out a DVD to watch and kicking back to watch it rather than going through menus online and picking up pirate DVD's at the Sunday Market is better than torrents.

Totally agree. You should check out Picture Search in Richmond if you haven't! It's a pretty cool place, still got vinyl (for sale) and VHS too. :shock:

^Funny you should mention that. I've been going there lately. I've been re-watching films from the 90s that aren't available for streaming. I recently re-watched: Killing Zoe, Henry Fool, The Doom Generation, Nowhere & Bleeder. I enjoyed Henry Fool & Bleeder. The others were a bit meh. The guy who runs the shop reckons he's looking for a new location because his landlord has increased the rent. It's good to know he wants to keep the business going.

Some JB Hi Fi shops sell Vinyl, I've bought a few records there.

Storm boy is brilliant. David get oddball. Based on a true story about a dog on an island in warnambool.

Bad thing about Netflix, some seriously awful movies!

Watched a Spider-Man one with junior last night. Not the new one. Wasn’t bad, but I still managed to do some ikea shopping!
