1)Was there a film like Max Payne were valkyrie featured in sinliar circumstances or am i just thinking of Max Payne?

And a film i just saw a bit of that featured a man going backwards through a window he may have screamed in a digital type voice???

The scene seems like a little like the comedian from watchmen with a metallic body (i think) as he hit's the glass backwards in bullet time? his look is simliar to neo as he touches the mirror before first entering the matrix
loveforstitch - Does he fall in love? I like a little romance in all my movies.

Rekaert - Yes, he demonstrates it with bullets, punches and sentencing.

He's Mega City 1's own Don Juan.

Are you thinking of 'The Crow'
You ever notice that everyone who believes in creationism looks really unevolved? Eyes real close together, big furry hands and feet. "I believe God created me in one day." Yeah, looks like he rushed it.

Professor Bear

Some film I recall seeing on VHS that had a plot similar to Robocop about a bloke, possibly a scientist on a hush-hush project, and he gets killed and they incorporate his corpse into a super robot that may or may not have looked like the electric bloke from Running Man.  He then possibly seeks revenge on his killers, dies again at the end, and they put his robot body/corpse on display somewhere and I think the last scene is some kid looking at it.

Dark Skies? It was a series with Eric Close in it, but I think it was set in the sixties or something. And I think there was also some sort of face-hugging alien thing involved too.

It was basically about aliens symbiont taking over human bodies, if I remember correctly. Kind of like the Trill species from Star Trek but more aggressive (i.e. without the human's content, and they completely took over pretty much destroying the human's identity after a certain period).

It was quite an interesting series, but I remember the ending being very very odd.

Yep, I watched Dark Skies, very odd, X-Files-like but more focused. I'd quite like to watch it again. However, it wasn't that.
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

"X-Files-like", that's an understatement, it was a blatant and obvious attempt to cash in on the deserved success of Mulder and Scully... if only the actual X-Files had been cancelled after one season (which it very nearly did), the first one was the best, IMHO, it was an investigation show that featured the paranormal, but by the end of the second season (if not before that), it had turned into a sci-fi/paranormal show that featured two investigators, a subtle but decided shift in emphasis which led me to turn off, mind you, the Colony/End Game two-parter, plus the Anasazi/The Blessing Way/Paper Clip storyline that ended S-2 and began S-3 were both that series at the top of it's game (heights to which it would never reach again), so maybe I should correct that point and say it's a pity it wasn't cancelled after the second season, Dark Skies  however was a loss before it began...

Sigh. That should of course read:

Eric Plumrose

Some '70s/'80s film/TV movie about a terrorist hijack. The hero dies at the end when the terrorist he's escorting by helicopter crumbles a cigar. IIRC, the cigar itself causes the explosion wot kills 'em, the hero begging the grinning terrorist to stop.
Not sure if pervert or cheesecake expert.

Tim Curry on the run from gangsters, with only an Oirish accent to protect him.

One more:

A vampire, trapped in a bathtub. He's screaming, possibly being tortured for information by whoever's running the bathtap.

The vampire in the tub is the 70s Hammer film, Dracula AD72 - Christopher Neame being tortured by Peter Cushing to find out where Chris Lee is hiding out
An old-school, no-bullshit, boys-own action/adventure comic reminiscent of the 2000ads and Eagles and Warlords and Battles and other glorious black-and-white comics that were so, so cool in the 70's and 80's - Buy the hardback Christmas Annual!
