The final part of the Hobbit saw it's rating rise in the US when certain scenes were added to the DVD. And a watch of Terminator on broadcast in the UK seems a long way from the original film I recall... |

You would be fine, Bauble, I think the last time (probably only time) I had a punch up of any sort I was in the playground about 45 years ago! A school bully had been picking on me for weeks and I was goaded into a scrap. I snapped and won! The teachers gave me a *******ing, and then whispered, “well done”!

There's a good reason to that, Romans used too stiff rear sway bars. Greeks were softer at rear, its my deduction after watching carefully pictures taken by a witness you can trust, bauble…

Just had a read up and found that the films are actually not made in timeline order . The "Rings " series are set a along time after the " Hobbit " series , but came out before . A recommended viewing order seems to be ---- Fellowship , followed by the 3 Hobbit ones , then 2 towers followed by return of the King . Confusing innit? Have now realised I am less than halfway through the whole lot . |

In a strange twist of fate, I understand that: The original book 'The Hobbit' was so successful that the publishers demanded a sequel, and so LoTR was written. In the movie world, the LoTR films were so popular, the studios demanded the prequel be adapted for film..... |

And it does seem to make sense given the storyline . But I only mentioned these films originally because I was impressed by the scenes, storylines & even the computer graphics compared to a lot of the poor quality of the stunts & other stuff in films nowadays . |

Interesting stunts are the real ones, imo. Its the majority I think. I dont much care to spot a ROPS inside a car or a missing engine when I see that a human took risks.

Always impressed by the number of stunts they make in a single episode of Die Autobahnpolizei said Alerte Cobra in France. I say the number…

As for making so many films out of the slim volume that was The Hobbit - well, talk about padding! |

I recall back in the late 60s sitting in a young lady's bedroom with a bunch of other people, writing letters to people in runes (these appear on the covers to the Hobbit books). Actually the memory is a bit foggy due to the funny smelling smoke. Strangely none of the letters arrived at their addressed recipients. There was also a case of witchcraft widely reported. Some wag had climbed up an old chimney and aced a banner saying "Aldershot for the cup" in runes.

Bloody hell!
I thought I'd come to the motorsport forum, but it seems I've stumbled into 'Filmweek'! Anyone seen Barry Norman? Or is it now Claudia wossername? |

For the stunts you need subtitles?
Well, if I can help: Grey car: Eeeeeee, zip, groop, broap, zip, paf… boom! Tching! Black car: vroap, vroap, vroooooap, wiiiiizzz, vroap, paf, boom! Tchong! In the meanwhile, the truck: geudeum, geudeum, geudeum; geudeum, tchit-tchit-tchit, geudeum… @Terry: exactly! After ten years of episodes, seems they're running out of stock of dreier serie, we now see some Benz other than the Polizei ones. Can you translate "dreier" für deine Freund, Gordon, bitte? Danke! See that, Richard, not only my french is rusty but my german too. The way France go, I'd better die now or re-learn german… |

Sorry, Gordon, I'm unforgivable, forgot the mandatory Polizei wagen, in other words the future wreck driven by the fookin cops!
The Polizei Benz: piiin-poon, piiiiin--poooon, piiiiiiiin------poooooon, (running out of juice cose the battery is dying said the script girl), the last is piiiiiiiiiiiiiiin-----------------pooooooooooon! Poof! Note that in french pin-pon is the official sound of polizei cars while pon-pin is the firemen trucks one's. In english? No idea! Why does this sound matters and is important to identify? Hé bien, essayez donc de courir avec le feu au cul et vous verrez ce qui est réellement important! |

One for Gordon . I believe he said he was stuck in Kent . Which is probably lucky as Spain is having record low temperatures . I realise it is in the mountains , but -34 C is still VERY cold . |
