The Legendary Shark

My trusty old Blackberry died (the charger socket housing fell out) :(

Got a new old one off Ebay for £13 (including postage), just slightly newer than my old old one, and suddenly I have spiffingly fast 3G connection :)

Life sucks, then it doesn't.

The Legendary Shark

Whenever I see someone fall over or hurt themselves I get a weird sympathetic pain in my plumbs.

I get that when I see someone making an ass of themselves.Thats why I avoid twitter profiles of comic book writers. :)

Its Guardian,so consider yourselves warned. ::)

Revenge fantasy movies are ten a penny, Star Wars, The Godfather 2 have strong revenge themes so I wouldn't get too upset about a Movie that appears to have vengeance as its central theme. I never read the original Death Wish book, but understand it's a warning against vigilantism which might have been a better more thoughtful Film to have made than this appears to be. This Movie is Lib Baiting for publicity: White guy shoots members of minorities>gasp<, drops the car on White man>meh< guaranteeing outrage and promoting the film. Don't take the bait just vote with your wallet and don't see it.

Reading that article and most comments from each 'side' can only elicit one response from most normal people; https://youtu.be/vAME2NCkFK4

Oy

IMO,any judgment should be reserved after we see the movie.
I dont know was some political statment intended,but it feels more like an action vehicle for Willis(sort of like John Wick) then a study of vigilante justice.Or,you know,its just a movie.
