As an Irishman, Far and Away is far and away the worst abomination ever committed to film! Having said that, I have seen and enjoyed most of his films.

You’re obviously not a golfer!

Is there an original thought left in Hollywood or are they going to keep flogging dead horses/milking old cash cows?! We all know the answer, unfortunately!

I lived in Japan many moons ago and the traditional toilets there looked basically like a sink embedded in the ground over which you squatted. I had to try it out and was lucky not to shit myself! To this day, I don’t know how they use it without taking their trousers off!! Maybe they have perfected the art with all…

It was bad enough going to the original rendezvous with what they thought was a dozen cantaloupes, but as I remember it, they went back to the Saviours at the end with not one, but two vehicles to deliver the one outstanding cantaloupe. I wouldn’t do that today, with functioning petrol (gas) stations everywhere! Ditto…

A whole 8GB? Wow - I can’t wait! It’ll take years to fill all that storage, said no one since about 1994!

One of the guys from Simon & Simon is in 24: Legacy, if that’s any good to you! I’m with you on the 80s TV nostalgia!

I actually met the team who developed the CD-i when, as a final year university student, Philips flew me over to their research facility in Surrey (England) for an interview. I didn’t get the gig, but they seemed to be doing some cool stuff there. It was the first time I saw VR, which they demoed to me way back then!…

I used to go to the movies in Japan years ago, which, mercifully, were subtitled. Even so, it was a weird experience, with everyone (bar me) concentrating hard to read the kanji/katakana/hiragana subtitles. No talking to your buddy then on how cool something was, then! My Japanese friends told me they often chose…

Having worked in Japan as a young man for a big Japanese company and lived in company accommodation for single men, I can see how this story is plausible! Every rubbish (garbage) collection day, an unholy amount of porn magazines used to be dumped in the common area. On the plus side, I never had to buy any porn in…

Nice to see an objective article on him for a change!! If you tried to think of the worst characteristics a president (or human!), would have, you’d basically end up with Trump. I can’t believe so many of you guys fell for that lying, narcissistic, thin skinned, moronic, sexist, racist charlatan.

No, they’re carbon!!!

Luckily, alternative facts aren’t stubborn and will save us all!

I agree. I’ve been a loyal FireFox user for years, as with a few extensions, I can set up the browser (e.g. tabs, add blocking etc.) the way I like it. However, since I’ve downloaded 50.0.1, performance has plummeted to almost unusable. I have 16GB of RAM, but even with disabling all but a handful of extensions, it…

A fortnight is also extremely common here in Ireland (i.e. the island* - both north and south of the border), where Liam Neeson is from!

Disney are in a bit of a pickle, but I can’t see how they can kill Princess Leia off. These movies are prequels to the original 3 movies, in which she was very much alive! Recasting would probably be the easiest solution, but I wouldn’t like to be that actress with all the scrutiny she’s bound to get!

Just give the Germans and French enough time and they will have Europe as a single country under their control! That has been their goal since day one of this bureaucrat’s wet dream and treaty by treaty, they are leading the gullible yokels (like us Irish) to it bit by bit! But hey, it’s not all bad. We may lose our…

Agree totally. I’m left handed & have been playing video games for almost 35 years with absolutely no issues. In fact, I think it would feel weird to use this controller, perhaps due to so much conditioning! However, to compare with other replies, I am right handed for swinging sports like golf (useful for finding…

Agree largely with the synopsis and most comments here. I’ve watched it since episode one and I’ve very nearly had enough. I’ve suspended belief, endured repeated monotony & stupidity multiple times. I’ve put up with the poor pacing and repeated plots lines down through the seasons. With one or two great episodes…

It’ll work great all year round here in Ireland, at least until global warming really ramps up! Our highest ever recorded temperature is 91.9F and that was in the 19th century.
