Steve Smith Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Just Googled it I think Mr Pink shoots nice guy After Joe shoots Mr White and Eddie shoots Harvey Keitel?????????????????????????????????????It's a long time ago but no. It went like this: Joe shoots Mr. Orange which leads to White shooting Joe. So Eddie shoots White but White being such a bad ass is able to shoot Eddie too. Pink runs away with the loot but can be heard off camera being gunned down by the cops. Johnny Here are a couple of great iconic British films for you to check out if you haven't seen them "Get Carter" (1969) - Michael Caine was Jack Carter a London hitman who came up North to Newcastle (my city) to avenge the murder of his brother. The multi level car park in Gateshead south of the river where he threw the corrupt politician off only got demolished 2 years ago. The remake with Stallone was crap. "The Wicker Man" (1970's) - Edward Woodward plays a policeman who goes to a remote Scottish Island to investigate the disappearance of a young girl amid rumours of devil sun worshippers and human sacrifice, also starred Christopher Lee as "Lord Summerisle" Nick Cage starred in the US remake but it wasn't very good and not his greatest performance. These are two great films, maybe you have seen them? KR's SteveYeah I know of those but never saw them. Michael Caine is always good no matter what. Honestly Johnny they are both great but dark and gritty stories. Michael Caine kills the bastards who murdered his brother but gets killed in the end by another hitman. Edward Woodward gets captured and burned to death tied up in a giant man made of Whicker as he cites his Christian faith against the heathen sun worshippers. Not very Hollywood I am afraid but both brilliant films which you can probably see on You Tube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 However there are exceptions to that. Some leading men are good actors - Nick Cage, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink runs away with the loot but can be heard off camera being gunned down by the cops. Anyway I don't think that there has ever been a movie before or since with so many brilliant and talented actors without a bone afide "Hollywood Star" Shawshank comes close. Steve Shawshank is awesome. But comparing Shawshank and Dogs is like comparing Moving Pictures and 2112, either one might be better on any given day IMHO. Ever read about the original casting intention for Andy Dufresne and Red? Harrison Ford as Red, Tom Cruise as Andy. I think Ford could've passed as Red (though Freeman was perfect). But Cruise as Dufresne is hard to imagine. Thanks Johnny, you are a cool bloke and seems we are on a good wavelength. I am sorry for being such a nobhead a couple of weeks ago I am in a much better and happier place these days. Yes I agree, don't compare Dogs and Shawshank, they are both totally brilliant yet different. Happy days dude :DGood for you.And don't worry about that stuff from a few weeks ago. I've had a million times worse debates/arguments/whatever with real world people & friends. And many times, a mere hour or so later it's all ancient history. Just don't ask me what instrument I play. The real answer will be a let down and isn't as fun/funny as the question repeated :P thanks Johnny, I am sorry about that. At the time I was not in a good place and just hit out. thanks dude and hope we can move on. I will say again that you do not need to play an instrument to have good musical knowledge so I am sorry.

He's another actor that's always good no matter what The British "Hammer Horror" films from the 60's are really iconic. cheaply produced but so brilliant and "Gothic". Normally starred Lee or Peter Cushing. There was a great great one which was slightly "camp horror" called Dr Jeckyl and Sister Hyde where the Doctor turned into this beautiful woman "Femme Fatale" evil murderess after consuming his potion! Just great!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if I have ever inadvertently done so in the past then I apologise. At the end of the day none of us has made a living out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's another actor that's always good no matter what CL did a nice cameo in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as Willie Wonker's dad the dentist. That was a really nice remake, Depp did a good job in that IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
