    Saw it last night, and really enjoyed it. That little smile on Jack's face after he got caught was brilliant. When the CIA agent was telling Jack he was past it as well...asking for trouble boy :P

    Good start, and looking forward to where it goes.

    Best part was, jack goes into a room full of armed men and says "I want to trade you your life for the hacker, you think I'm at a disadvantage but I assure you I'm not".

    Jack is easily my favourite action hero in film or TV. Dammit!

    I paused that list as well, trying to remember how he killed these people. I'm guessing there was a 2nd, 3rd and probably 4th page there as well :P

    I'll be honest, at the end when the girl was taking off her contacts and wig, I was half hoping it was Tony Almeida in disguise :pac:

    The fact that Tony Almeida is a badass? :P

    What girl taking of her contacts?, last I remember was some guy who took over the drone saying "Job Done" ...


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭miralize


    Oh, there was a double episode!

    I was a bit disapppointed with this list. It only mentions kills since the series began surely Jack had killed folks before that. :)

    Just looked at the first two episodes, looking very good so far, I was worried they might ruin it after such a long break, but I shouldn't have doubted them, excellent start to season 9


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 9,681 Mod ✭✭✭✭Manach


    I was worried that Jack was not wracking up a body count, silly me. Looking forward to the next 10 or so episodes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,557 ✭✭✭KeithM89


    Only noticed from looking on IMDB that Steve Navarro (head of CIA) is Mannys dad in Modern Family! Never would've guessed.

    Solid opener. Only thing that bugged me was.... If Jack was trying to get caught in the opening scene - why did he run?

    Believability? To get back in the swing of things? For sport?

    To make it look authentic, rather than just walking up to them and saying "Hi, I'm Jack Bauer, a wanted fugitive, would you mind arresting me and
    bringing me to your interrogation centre so I can free my old pal Chloe O'Brian
    "?

    Hehe lads no need to get so defensive. Love 24 so any minor plot holes don't make much difference to me but in all seriousness, if he wanted to get caught, I don't think he would have risked about 50 bullets coming within inches of his head???!!!

    Its Jack Bauer. Bullets just bounce off him anyway ;)

    Or they hit him in the vest. :)

    Although in season 1 he did actually get wounded!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,557 ✭✭✭KeithM89


    Didn't he get shot at the end of hour 2 by the guy he stabbed in the face? Definitely no vest on.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 9,681 Mod ✭✭✭✭Manach


    Given the near and return from death experiences that Mr. Bauer has had, I'm surprise there is no First Church of the St. Jack in existence.

    Also, who knew Ava Hessington(Suits) moonlighted as an international power player.

    I would have assumed people would see her as the Stark woman from Game of Thrones ahead of Suits.

    Yep. :o

    Used to be a massive fan but got very jaded with it around Series 6 (I think) - the one where his father and brother featured heavily :(

    Don't really have the appetite to go back and catch up with Series 7 and 8 but have started taping the new series - basically (this is a really long lead in to a simple question) is there anything I really need to know before I start watching the new show?

    cheers cm

    I know not of this "Game of Thrones" ... (likely the only one on boards.ie, as never a Martin fan).


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,101 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    IGN did a recap of each season recently. You could get the basics there, though i'd still recommend watching seasons 7 and 8. They were pretty good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,258 ✭✭✭PropJoe10


    Seasons 7 and 8 were very good. I thought 6 was the weakest season myself, although its still good.
