Dead mans shoes is a colossally shit film, beyond shit actually.... If a piece of shit had bowel function and did a shit, well that shit is no where near as shit as that film. You'd need to go to the shits 5th or 6th descendant to equalise the shitness.
Well, no, not fussed really but I was just surprised with his "only big titles" response, like he's some Hollywood A-lister. And then I read about that Shark/Croc movie today and had to laugh when I saw who the second-billed actor was. Big time.yid14 wrote:Can't say I'm surprised he didn't give you an interview, he always came across as a bit of an arrogant ****. Surely with all the great fighters in Thailand Gary Stretch wouldn't have been much of coup anyway?

Call me a sadist but that wasn't the most controversial stoppage I've seen. Good fighter he was though.
Yeah, I was wondering too. I remember the build up with them on some chat show, funny as hell!The_Don1 wrote:Jeff Thomas wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RurR0h6bxx8&sns=em

how on earth could that be labelled a very controversial stoppage? The guy fell through the ropes and had no balance on standing up
FFS Jeff the movie is a classic piece of British cinema, kinda like a English Rambo!Jeff Thomas wrote:Seriously? Ha ha ha

Glad to see some sense in here, great movie although bleak as fornicate. Considine was amazing in it.Jon Saxon wrote:FFS Jeff the movie is a classic piece of British cinema, kinda like a English Rambo!Jeff Thomas wrote:Seriously? Ha ha ha

"Beauty V The Best" attracted the big celebrity crowd, and it was a major sporting event. Despite not really training for the contest, he gave the iron-chinned champion hell for five rounds before very controversially the fight was stopped in the sixth round.

Dead Man's Shoes = quality film.
Robert Picardo? Didn't he play the holographic doctor in DSP 9? Now if they had Seven of Nine in it, we would all be winners.oliverfennell wrote:A while ago, upon hearing Gary Stretch was in Thailand, I thought I'd track him down for an interview. I didn't have a commission but thought the obvious likes of Boxing News or Monthly might be interested, and/or the newspaper I work for, the Bangkok Post.
Well, he's now an actor and apparently the success of this giddy profession went to his head and he knocked back my interview request, saying he "only speaks to big titles".
No doubt Esquire, GQ, Playboy, the New York Times and the like will be beating down his door to speak to him when they see the kinds of films he doesn't even have the lead role in.
