It would appear that our Norm’s got some films in the pipeline…

“Roswell 1847” a western SciFi adventure. Starring Norman Lovett (of Red Dwarf fame) Geoff Eyers, Tracy Reddington ( From the new bond film), Peter Ward, Mike Konik, Anabell Ward, Cheryl Bennet, Sky Wilson, and many more notable actors. Directed by Ian Paterson, Produced by William Cheney and Geoff Eyers.

Hmmm… a western scifi eh? that sounds familiar. Maybe Norm was bitter about not appearing in Gunmen, or perhaps he’s a big Firefly/Serenity fan?
Anyone heard of the other people involved?

“Call me a physco” (A action comedy) Starring Norman Lovett, Peter Ward, Tracy Reddington, Geoff Eyers, and many more notable stars. Directed by Ian Paterson, produced by Peter ward and Executive produced by William Cheney.

Intentional comedy spelling mistake, or just a twat who can’t spell?
Mostly the same people but apparently with “many more notable stars” Ooooh!

YOU FUCKING RETARDS.

I find that all Zombie Jim’s posts are gay and stupid.

>Oh, Wonderful Life! I?m not sure I?ve seen it all the way through, but I agree there. A touching story. That is the one with the man who considers suicide, and the angel who shows him how his life has affected others yes?

?It?s a Wonderful Life? and yes, and if you haven?t seen it all the way through then you should. It?s also a film with a Dwarf connection.

Sorry. I see just how my above quote looks… Admits a good-un and I name it wrong…

I think it might help slightly, Chris, if you gave us an example of an ?old film? that you think is lacking realism. Because you?re making a sweeping statement?and, for all we know, all you?ve done is watch a bunch of really lousy old films.

Will do. And I’ll seek out those films you’ve mentioned. (I’ve certainly heard of most of them, watched them in part, but it was a long time ago.)

[ChrisM]

> I?m referring to people talking something like how we might chat in real life, and in many old films?people just don?t seem to talk like that.

Okay, I?m trying to remain calm, because this is actually getting stupider.

REALISM IS A CODIFIED SYSTEM!!!!!!

Ok, I was responding to your paragraphs one after the other, the codified bit came later. And I do get your point about my sweeping comments on acting styles, really I do (and I even mentioned it in my blurb.) I’m just using the term for want of a better one really. Perhaps by ‘modern style’ I mean the style in which the majority of modern films appear with some exceptions.

And I did admit that much of my conclusion has been pretty limited, and that I’m willing to keep an open mind and seek out old (for want of a better word) films, give them a chance, reassess my beliefs.

As for specific films, difficult to pick out specifics ones right now, but many of the black and white war films spring to mind. I’ll seek one out, give it a proper watch and get back to you.

>Omar Sharif. For crying out loud. OMAR SHARIF! He?s talking about films like Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivagio. It?s?

I’m not putting down the man or his films, (I rather like him in fact). I was simply saying that HE expressed views that have occurred to me. Someone of that generation that had appeared in those films.

>Chris, you win. Teh old akting is, like, totaly not wiv da realizm and modurn akting so iz.

Um… quite. I talk just like that as do all chaps of a modern persuasion. (Who is being sweeping now?)

Anyway, apologies for any offence caused. I just come on here to express views and chat really. As I said, I’m open minded, and I’ll willing to reassess my opinions.

Well, one thing’s for sure: we’re all going to love Roswell 1847.

[ChrisM]

Our Norm’s about 1.0 minute in.

That much is certain.

[ChrisM]

There’s a 1967 film on Film 4 at the moment. Fathom it’s called. It was on when I switched over, so I’m missed a lot (and I’m not paying much attention to tell the truth, what with surfing the net at the same time. Multi-tasking isn’t my strong point.)

That Raquel Welch was a fine figure of a woman though wasn’t she?

A British actor just made an appearance! Wonderful! Richard Briers, he from The Good Life! He’d obviously a lot younger in this but he’s very recognizable. He just rescued Welch too from a Russian guy with a dodgy accent! Now he’s flying a plane. And I thought it’d be a bit role.
