The Hurricane [RSC Film Club 18]
LimeGreenLegend posted a topic in Film Club,
The Hurricane
This month we return to the world of sports with the 1999 biopic of boxer Rubin Carter, The Hurricane, nominated by @omarcomin71.
The film, directed by Norman Jewison (In The Heat of the Night, Fiddler on the Roof, Moonstruck) tells the story of middleweight boxer, Rubin "The Hurricane" Carter (Denzel Washington) who was wrongfully arrested and convicted of murder in 1966, and sentenced to life in prison. He was released in 1985 thanks to the efforts of Brooklyn teenager Lesra Martin (Vicellous Reon Shannon). This is another film club selection that I've not seen yet, but this has an excellent director and lead actor telling an incredible true story, so I'm looking forward to checking it out.

The First Look At The PlayStation 5
RSCnet posted a topic in Game Informer,
Click here to watch embedded media
Sony hasn't revealed the price or release date of the PlayStation 5, but it did give us the first look at the console itself.
The system is sandwiched between two curving outer blades that serve as an open shell of sorts. The videos repeatedly showed the PS5 in the vertical position, with a stand, although there was a brief glimpse of the console on its side. In this "flat" configuration, the stand looks like it sits under the unit like a puck.
A digital edition without a disc drive was also shown (along with a host of official first-party accessories), but again, we don't know what anything costs just yet.

Crew Challenge 211 – Elevated Speed
This is 2 player team time trial on a track of Lann's suggested by Skorp. It's in custom supercars, you and your teammate must use different models. You'll notice a couple of the faster newer ones are not available but I think there is more than enough that are. As usual sign up now and we'll draw semi-random teams later. Recent winning pairs will be excluded, (Skorp & Dodge CC 209, DJ & JJ CC207, Proto & Rammstein CC205)

Races will always be contact and mostly no catch up, but slipstream will depend on the track. Tracks with a pit lane may include a mandatory pit stop, but will likely depend on if it's 2x 15 minute races or 1x 30 minute race.
Combat jobs will be a mix of forced weapons, and owned weapons without explosives unless otherwise stated, depending on the job.
I'll include an adversary mode or two as well.
Job requests/suggestions are always welcome.

Max Manus: Man of War [RSC Film Club 17]
LimeGreenLegend posted a topic in Film Club,
War was the theme for May's film club, with the winning film being Max Manus: Man of War nominated by @Lann. Max Manus is a Norwegian biographical film detailing the exploits of resistance fighter and saboteur, Max Manus and is based on books that he wrote himself.
It was directed by Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg, who directed Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell no Tales and stars Aksel Hennie as Manus. The film is one of the biggest recent hits of Norwegian cinema, winning a record seven Amanda awards (the Norwegian Oscars) in 2009 at the Norwegian International Film Festival.
I've not seen, nor heard of this film before, so can't say much else, but you can't really go wrong with resistance fighters kicking n*zi *ss. It will also be interesting to see some history of a country that doesn't get mentioned much when WW2 films are made.
my country was stolen from me, and I want it back

Hello All....
Though I'd share my hobby with you all, as some of you may find it interesting.
A few months ago I found my old collection of Matchbox cars from when I was a lad, around 25 years ago. Most of which were play worn and missing any bits of paint. After watching a few guys on youtube, I set about restoring some. After the varying success of my efforts, I bvranched out into buying knackered cars and restoring them as a little weekend hobby.
Then after a bit of shopping with my son, I purchased a few Hot wheels cars, and now my son and I collect Hot Wheels together. We don;t want full sets, but we just buy what we like. Which makes today a special day, as it's 'Hot Wheels Friday'.
I have a youtube channel for my restorations, I try to put out a video a week, but that is subject to how busy I am at a weekend!! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSj7Ft27_NW26QrUvyifKXA
I'll update this thread as and when I buy anything new, or do a new restoration.
Anywho, here are a few examples of my restorations, I'll put a few in the open, then the rest in a spoiler.
Vans Racing/Xero Gas Liveried Jeep Cherokee:
Corgi Rover 2000 I restored:

Crew Challenge 210 – Get on Your Bikes and Ride!
It's time for another bicycle race challenge. This one is single player and rather than hot lapping it's the the fastest time for a 1 lap race. Doing multiple laps might be a bit much.
Use any bicycle you like. Non-contact if racing with others. Any time of day. Any weather. Make as many attempts as you like
The track is Strawberry Milkshake
