The "Anything good on tonight?" Thread.

[Lazlow]

Just noticed, anyone with 7HD should be watching Conan the Barbarian right about now.

Followed by Conan the Destroyer.

[Späg]

Gladiators and Rove on tonight. Not bad viewing, at least hopefully. I know many people hate Rove, but we've been there done that. In actualy fact, I mainly watch for Pete, Ryan, and Hamish (but not Andy - he is just shit).

[Starscream]

4 corners: Debtland

If you're in Perth, you still have a chance to watch it.

You can watch it online, but screw wasting my bandwidth on it.

Replay tomorrow night.

[Gnomey_g]

Kevin and Perry Go Large is on at 12:40 tonight!

The Godfather part II. Channel 10

[AranchineD]

The Godfather part II. Channel 10

And in a week, I fully expect the final movie in the trilogy not to be posted in this thread. >_>

A Tale of Two Sisters is on this week as well. 10:30, Wednesday, SBS

[igotnewsuper8systemWRONG!]

The Godfather part II. Channel 10

That movie must have one of the greatest endings of all time, if I weren't such a man I would probably shed a tear whilst watching it.

[Quatters]

Well tomorrow Today Tonight have a segment on "foreigners who refuse to speak English."

This should be good!

[Starscream]

que?!?

[Louis]

That was only just on in like, december. Doesnt ten have any other movies?

I'd take Mean Girls any day over My Best Friend's Wedding.

[shinra_elite]

I'd take Mean Girls any day over My Best Friend's Wedding.

Most people under 30 would I'd believe.


Tonight my pathetically sad self comes out to play when a group of people come over to watch Greys Anatomy together, and proceed to talk about absolutely nothing of importance after.

[Gnomey_g]

SBS are showing A Tale of Two Sisters on Wednesday at 10:30pm. Watch it.

Two people posting about it should be enough to get at least a few people watching, aye?

[shinra_elite]

Can I get a simple synopsis? The two people posting has me 70% convinced...

That'll learn me to not check the previous page >_>

Shinra, it's basically a very creepy Japanese styled psychological horror. Except it's Korean.

[AranchineD]

Tale of Two Sisters on Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tale_of_two_sisters)

Basically, it's a ****ed up, tripping balls Asian flick.

[Starscream]

I've seen this movie. It's okay.

The only bad thing will be the ad breaks during the movie.

Thanks SBS for selling out!

[/backslash]

Must watch that korean movie :D Saw it in the tv guide yesterday

http://atwhim.com/blog1/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/tale_of_two_sisters.jpg

Looks like a poster for 'Project Zero 2/Fatal Frame' doesn't it?

There's Perfect Blue on SBS 12.50am on Friday too. Another stupid timeslot for another great anime (like GITS SAC)

[Slippery]

After reading the plot synopsis on Wikipedia I can firmly state: I don't get it - but it looks cool.

[PrattP]

Oh, Back to You is such an awesome show.

I gotta hand it to you Ten.

Seriously, you can't miss out on this one. Laugh out loud funny.

Tale of Two Sisters on Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tale_of_two_sisters)

I watched it, but thank goodness for the wiki link to clarify the plot.

In short, they are all *****ed up.

And the yanks are doing a remake of it too.

[HiredMan]

Man, the Oasis is ****ing depressing :(

[Slippery]

SBS is showing that George Clooney movie sometime next in the next week (Goodnight and goodluck I think?)

Worth watching if you know a bit about the McCarthy period in the U.S.

[RunningMild]

Next week, Lost guest stars Grant Bowler, aka Outrageous Fortune's Wolfgang West. I recommend anyone who still watches Lost to watch that episode because Mr Bowler is seventy shades of awesomeness.

Also known to many as the host of The Mole (not the butchered recent version).

OMG that was him?

I remember watching that show and when someone got eliminated, he would whisper "We have to go now" and I'd think "Geez this guy is a massive tosser." But aside from that he was a really good host. :P

[fishonthecarpet]

I miss the early Mole seasons. It was awesome. Then it got EXXXTREMEEEE.

The Godfather part III. Channel 10. 11 pm.

[Watchers]

The IT Crowd is back on ABC tonight after Spicks and Specks. Everyone needs to watch it.

[/backslash]

Ooh! New series?

[Watchers]

Ooh! New series?

Yup. Just finished watching it. It was awesome.

[/backslash]

I'll have to buy the DVD when it comes out to add to my S1&S2 collection. Wonder why Australia hasn't gotten Season 2 on DVD yet? I had to import it (no complaints though since I get to bypass those ugly classification logos)

[Mr Incredible]

Man, the Oasis is ****ing depressing :(

Yeah I watched that last week as well. As sad as it was to see the state that some people live in it was very inspiring to see that man and his wife devote so much love and care to people whom almost no one else would. As much as I know about poverty in Australia...I didn't know how horrendous it was. One scene stood out for me. It was where that young homeless girl rings up inquiring about a drug rehabilitation program and they immediately ask her what she is doing and how much she's using...and then she reply's with a $600 a DAY Heroin habit! Holy mother of Buddha! That's...wow...a big habit. And to imagine how she's getting the money. :-(

Although the responsibility does come down to the individual, the fact that there's rich bastards making a great deal of money out of destroying communities and the people that live in them sickens me. Drugs are seriously so destructive, and the ramifications and consequences affect a lot more people than just the users themselves. Our health care system has to deal with it, police have to deal with it, and the indirect cost to us a reality.

I could rant on...though I won't! :-)

Worth watching if you know a bit about the McCarthy period in the U.S.

I caught this when it first came out a couple of years back. A very, very good movie. It highlighted an American political period that I didn't know too much about.

"We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home." - Edward. R Murrow

Are politicians not versed in world history...or the history of their own country!? Will people keep repeating the same mistakes?

Anyway ABC on Wednesday nights is back to an awesome one and a half hours of awesomeness from 8:30 till 10.

Spicks and Specks, The IT Crowd and The Armstrong and Miller show.

The Armstrong and Miller show is very good if no one has seen it yet. Here's a few of my favourite clips to get people warmed up! :-)

Both clips are well worth watching.

Yup. Just finished watching it. It was awesome.
Damnit, I forgot that I'd been watching Season 2 via download as it was coming out as opposed to tv. I know they're working on Season 3 atm and figured it was that

[JubeiSaotome]

On Saturday this weekend, Jacob's Ladder is on Foxtel's Sci-Fi channel at 1:30pm in the arvo and 11pm at night. For those who don't know, this is the movie that influenced Silent Hill.

[Starscream]

Just watched 4 Corners.

Profile of the Virginia Tech killer.

This program will be repeated about 11.35 pm Tuesday 6 May; also on ABC2 at 8am Tuesday.

[Watchers]

Everyone should be watching new Boston Legal.

[Starscream]

I should, but I'll get it on DVD down the track so I can watch it at my leisure without any advertisements.

Steamboy (from the creator of Akira) is on at 11.55pm SBS @ Monday night

Excellent animation with a good dub but the story is somewhat dull

[AranchineD]

Event Horizon. Channel 10. Saturday. Watch.

[craptest]

Event Horizon. Channel 10. Saturday. Watch. I really liked the film until about 3/4 of the way through, Same complaint with SUNSHINE, another thoughtful-turns-silly "scary" sci-fi

[Space_Monkey]

Magnum Force is on 9 at the moment ENJOY!

[Equinox]

Event Horizon is such an awesome film, I was pissing myself laughing the whole way through it.

P.S I am one of those people that no matter how *freaky* a movie is it never seems to dawn on me that it is supposed to be scary, and, as a sadist ultra gore in films is just meh for me. I do enjoy scary films though as I can understand the view they take and most of them have very intriguing back stories.

[Stormyau]

Snakes on a Mother****ing Plane, 9:45.

[Space_Monkey]

Don't bother with Snakes.

It has been cut for TV.

:(

[/backslash]

So its just going to be "People on a plane"?

[Space_Monkey]

I'm sick of these mother flipping snakes on this mother flipping plan!

[Dark Wader]

Turn on Miami Vice instead - not for the movie, purely for Gong Li. Just as hot in her 40's.

[Space_Monkey]

War of the Worlds is slightly less iritating...

[lucypie]

Terrible movies of truly epic proportions on tv tonight.
I'm watching Snakes, but only because I don't need to know ANY of the plot to get what's going on. There's some snakes. They're on a plane. Samuel L Jackson doesn't want them on the plane.

Yeah.

[Space_Monkey]

Problem solved.

Double the Fist is on ABC.

FIST!

[Rambo]

I hate that show.

I bought a $14 dvd of it. I still think that Double the Fist is the biggest waste of money ever.

What do you even find funny about it? If you want my DVD (volume 2? Maybe 1) you can have it for free, just pay for postage.

SBS are essentially having a Kubrick retrospective throughout this week - from 2001 to Full Metal Jacket. Most start at 10pm - essential viewing for anybody who hasn't caught these classics.

I forget what day it is on, but my personal favourite The Shining will also be on

[Lazlow]

Wednesday I think. Sunday Mail TV Guide gave 2001 a 1 star review. :/

Also there's a Korean wuxia on tomorrow night at 11:50pm on SBS called Bichunmoo.

[Conky]

Theres another movie that I want to see on SBS called GRIMM about a brother and sister who get left in the woods (based loosly on Hansel and gretel). its on next Saturday. Looks good.

[Space_Monkey]

Team America is on right now on ten. As usual a good film is shoved in the worst time slot. Probably the best puppet film you'll see all year. :)

Gary: OK, a limousine that can fly. Now I have seen everything.
Spottswoode: Really? Have you seen a man eat his own head?
Gary: No...
Spottswoode: So then you haven't seen everything!

20/20 Cricket match on Channel 10 @ 12.30am tonight (Middlesex Crusaders vs Victorian Bushrangers). Goes until 4.10am, stupid time but you can probably watch the first half without getting too tired

edit: goddamnit, why is the Home Shopping program on?! Stupid unreliable tv guide magazine

[Surgeon.]

Lets see.

I can either watch repeats of The Wedge on channel 10 or Howl's Moving Castle on SBS.

[FrozenSoul80]

According to my TV guide, Children of Men is on Channel Ten tonight around 11ish. If you have never watched this brilliant movie I highly recommend you watch it tonight.
