Ohhhhh, I’ve heard about Sunshine, but haven’t worked up to watching it
@howard@Mike_NL@Barney Can I just mention that Ke Huy Quan was in one of the most important movies of the 1980s - The Goonies
(Also in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, but people tend to be divided over that movie)
@kristine I never watched The Goonies… I do like Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom though. I think it’s a movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and neither should we.
@Ed thanks for posting The Comic Strip presents Bad News! I’m a big fan of Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson, and of French and Saunders as well. I had completely forgotten about this one, so watching it again was great fun!
@Mike_NL THERE’S STILL TIME (it’s a young Samwise Gamgee saving a New England town) Also, agreed about Temple of Doom and not taking ourselves too seriously
@Ed I haven’t seen Bad News; it’s going on my list!
I have recently watched a documentary about Marcus Miller. I found out about it thanks to this forum (there is a separate topic about this specific title). Here is the link if anyone is fancy watching. Highly recommended. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Marcus-Miller/dp/B07T9VYQX3
Here is something that I have not watched yet. I just discovered it this last weekend, but based on the trailer it looks interesting.
It is “Beneath the Bassline”. Available to rent on Vimeo. I’ll leave the link here:
Hey, I will spend a lot of time on the planes over the next 2 weeks.
Are there any documentaries, series, or movies bass/music related that you can recommend and that can be watched offline (Netflix/APrime will work)?
Recently watched An Ox’s Tale: The John Entwhistle Story. Incredibly informative, I think I found it on Qello. It gives a much deeper insight into just how influential he was on the instrument as a whole.
“The Quiet One”. A great documentary on the musical life of Bill Wyman with the Stones.
Bill and Charlie Watts made up one of the most solid rhythm sections in rock ‘n’ roll history.
Bill was a hobby historian and curator. He shot hundreds of personal photos and films of the band. The doc features many that have never been made public before.
