I was in Brunei back in July. It's a great place to visit if you want a break from the mass tourism destinations in the region. I went AWOL on the tech while I was away though so your record stands!

If you haven't already been go to the water village.
Just stopping over for a few hours. Through to London via Dubai.

Of all the absolutely shitty "classic" movie re-makes over the last 10 or more years, i'd really be thrilled if they did a re-make of Jaws.
I'll give you a story that should be filmed again

Outward Bound filmed in 1930 & remade as Between Two Worlds in 1944.

It's a story of passengers waiting to be able to board a vessel sailing to America from Britain during the war, WW1 for the 1930 film & WW2 for the 1944 film. But something happens, then they are on board, sailing, by themselves with only a steward.

Between Two Worlds is on YouTube


I can give away the plot, you've probably already guessed, watch the film on YouTube

It's a story that would transfer fantastically to today's audience.

Yeah, probably my most hated actor. Night at the Roxbury is the only decent thing hes done. Everything else is just a rehash of the same character.
The one where he says OUTRAGEOUSLY RANDOM THINGS AT THE TOP OF HIS VOICE?

If so, I agree. If not, I agree.

I also hold him responsible for every other ******* American actor (aside from the Apatow crew) employing this style of comedy.

'Between Two Worlds' was pretty good but subtle and understated (although my IMDb link gives away the twist). If made again they'd probably do to it what 'Titanic' did to 'Night to remember'.
Have you seen 'Sole survivor' (1970)? In this case the IMDb blabbering doesn't matter too much because you know the main premise 15 min in, the cleverness is what lies from knowing what happened between the opening scenes and WW2.
