Movies Showing IE & UK Channels Weekend 5th July.

Highlights:

Reservoir Dogs (1992)
The Woman in Black (2012)

Got a bit more picking with my inclusion and may have overlooked some movies on the Horror Channel and elsewhere.

Also my list shows things airing after 18:00, so they maybe other films on during the day?

James Bond season continues on RTE and movies not included on the list.

Movies Showing IE & UK Channels Weekend 12th July.

First 8 are repeats from last week.
Had to double check listings to see if my source was showing correct info.

Other than repeated movies mentioned last week, only highlight I spotted was maybe ' Beautiful Creatures (2013) '

Highlights!

'9' is in interesting animated movie, watch it yesterday.

'Shaun of the Dead', 'T2 Trainspotting', 'The Day of the Triffids', 'Groundhog Day' and 'Elysium' are others worth mentioning.

'Child 44' with Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman and Noomi Rapace, sounds interesting, anyone seen it?

Some quality films showing and it is hard to pick out a few to highlight, because of the mixture of good films.

Pick your own highlights?

Enjoyed the film for what it was an okay film. Not a good addition to the franchise. Can not stand Jason Clarke. Enjoyed the eye-candy of Emilia Clarke. All redundant now as the new film, puts all films after II into alternative timelines.

As I'm posting starting now on RTE 2 is
Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015)

@padjocollins You need to input them details yourself in the description box for each film.

Go to your list and select edit + add/edit option. Each film/show has a description box for every title.

Here is another example list with different details: - https://www.themoviedb.org/list/111663

Your list are very useful but a lot of work I'd say.
so you probably get the list of upcoming stuff off of
https://entertainment.ie/tv/movies/ and then you create you list of movies you think are good/half decent edit the description for channel info, date, rating and so on ? Would be great if you could keep doing it and keep the list fresh . I'd follow/subscribe to you on themovidedb if that were possible. thanks

^^^ You got it. It takes a bit of time to maintain and edit with correct details.

Have mentioned before where I sourced the details from.

Also something I started last summer for summer season of movies.

With that ending (or almost ended), only seams to be repeats of previous weeks on now.

Not something I ever planned do, all year round.

Edit: If you may have noticed it was the same list edited and shows deleted from prior week.
So you could follow changes to it, with something like https://visualping.io/ (or any website page).
