I rec the war western comedy action film fantasy mission force




5/10 Grey Knight (1993) 82mins Holy shit what bad sound mixing, you could hardly hear what anyone said
7/10 The Enemy (2011) 108m good atmospheric film set days after the fighting stopped in serbia



4/10 Nazis at the Center of the Earth (2012) 89m good for asylums standards except for buseys teeth, sure I get ppl whiten teeth, but when they are so white they're like spotlights coming out of your mouth, they look just bad, though I have to admit funny. I remember saving pprivate ryan, everytime matt damon opened his mouth I had to laugh which took you out of the film, this nazi one is a comedy so thats OK ( no war tag on imdb, also no horror tag (weird cause the gore was pretty graphic), so not sure why I watched TBH, I guess I love nazis though on wiki its a sci-fi war film)

6/10 R Point (2004) 107m group of Korean soilders in Vietnam being attacked by ghost soilders

6/10 Death Trench (2017) 90m entertaining film about the Germans doing WW2 like experiments, super soilders or so such but of course they make parasitic zombies

Grey Knight is a western? Then it doesn't count, only war movies this week.

And don't forget to add the minutes.

It's a us civil war movie. So set it the 1860s so shares a similar setting but it's about Yankees fighting confederates. I do see on google its listed as horror/western it should be horror/war (actually I see on IMDB it does say horror/war (no western tag))
TBH a lot of the 'crime' films I watched last month were not crime, I was going off the IMDB tag and thats why I decided to watch them

War week:

1. War of the Dead (2011) - 86 minutes.
2. Red Dawn (2012) - 93 minutes.
Total week 1 = 179 minutes.

Why did you delete Braveheart?

I just couldn't get into it so I turned it off after about 20 minutes.

You missed the party when Mel Gibson made his big speech with his schlong out and done the helicopter. Some day that's what got him the oscar

Do you want to host the A-Z challenge for August as it was your concept? 27 movies (including one that starts with a digit) in 31 days? And in no particular order. I think it's a good idea. And we're not restricted by genre. If not, I'll do it.

OK. I will host it.

Well that was the closest finish I think we've had for a TE challenge?? Congrats to Box on the overall victory. Even when he didn't watch anything for the last 4 days, I still failed to capitalize. I think the challenge was fun, hopefully if we do it again next year we will have a few more participants.

And a big to Nicko for winning the Action challenge at the last hurdle.

I like this challenge. Really, it's a good idea. I'm not feeling competitive at all right now though. It's nice not having to worry about keeping ahead of anyone. In the unlikely event I end up in last overall, oh well.

It's rare for me to be in the lead of any challenge so it's probably made me that extra bit competitive this time .

I did watch a few action flicks in the last few days, so if you would have waited to let me tally them, I'd be an even bigger winner.

It was fun. A good challenge you don't have to commit to so much, and you don't get burned out. The A-Z challenge looks pretty fun too, along the lines of the October Challenge where it's more about participation and seeking a completion goal rather than a high score.

Ah ok fair enough, you're normally on the ball with adding them daily .
