3:10 To Yuma is on Channel 5 at 10pm

Re-make on RTE2HD this saturday night (7th) at 9pm clashes with terminator3 which is on TV3, both are well worth the watch for those of ye that can record one or the other.

If yeh had to pick then certainly choose the 3:10 to Yuma remake a great film with some great performances, Terminator 3 is a shadow of the first two really and some parts will annoy fans of tbhe prvious two but not a bad popcorn movie all the same.

The Matrix is on Watch+1 at present. I would have recommended Once upon a time in the West only I was watching it LOL.

RTE1 is showing Terrence Malick's Days of Heaven on Saturday morning at 9:20am. Strange time, but it's a film I've been meaning to see for years, from what I've heard about its startling imagery.

Saturday night, CH4 has Witness at 9PM, one of my favourite films of the 80s: Harrison Ford as a cop who has to go in to hiding in an Amish community, after a young Amish boy is witness to a murder by another cop. With Kelly McGillis.

On Sunday @ 6:15PM, ITV2: Hulk. I thought Ang Lee's "arthouse superhero" film was woefully underrated by people expecting a "standard" superhero movie. This one is a bit more thoughtful about the impact of superpowers, and evokes a comic book feel through split screens without overdoing the FX. My only real complaint is that the CGI is a bit weightless.

High Noon is just starting now on Sky Classics HD.

DeepBlue · 07-07-2012 12:15pm

TOMORROW NEVER DIES

Sunday 5.55 on RTE 2 HD.

Brosnan's harder edged Bond film. It's no FRWL or indeed
LTK but it does have that certain viciousness amongst the standard
mayhem which elevates it above most of the rest, post the
OHMSS/DAF era.

:cool:

Its a pretty funny film in fairness, lots of references to 80's cinema in it. Absolutely cracked up when Craig Robinson's character just looks at the camera and goes

"Must be some kind of Hot Tub Time Machine"

or something along those lines.

grohlisagod · 19-07-2012 3:00pm

Film 4 are doing a Dark Night. Showing Memento, Bronson and The Machinist. Starting at 9.

Duffy the Vampire Slayer · 20-07-2012 9:14pm

If anyone's looking for a ridiculous and silly action movie, turn to tv3 for Under Siege 2: Dark Territory.

Cantona's Collars · 21-07-2012 12:11am

Yeah I'm gonna have to record Trainspotting, I've been looking forward to the olympics for a long long time.

Also saw that hitchhikers guide to the galaxy is on GOLD at 9 tonight.

RUCKING FETARD · 27-07-2012 11:04pm

Anyone come across a nice olympic timetable for when events are on?

hollypink · 29-07-2012 7:24pm

For any Hitchcock fans, Vertigo is on ITV3 at 9pm

Icarus Wings · 29-07-2012 8:50pm

One of my favourites - The Brave One - is on RTE 1 at 9:30pm tonight. A gritty and underrated story of revenge directed by Neil Jordan, with Jodie Foster in the starring role.

For others, Sleepers is also on TV3 at 9pm.

Vertigo is not my favourite and I'm not watching (though might catch a reshowing) but it might indicate that ITV3 have acquired the "Hitchcock 5" that were unseen for many years until the 80s - Rear Window, Trouble With Harry are two of the others.
