I actually saw this on the other night and recorded it to watch since I haven't seen it in prolly 10-15 years or so. Always liked that movie though. I apln on watching it soon.
Also, on-topic for this thread, I read Jim Corbett's book "Man-Eaters of Kumaon" a few months ago, and really liked it a lot. It contains 10 of his stories of tracking and killing maneaters throughout India and the Himalayas. It was just fascinating to me that someone did that at all, let alone was so successful at it. Great (and easy) read IMO.

growing up this was probably my favorite movie after i got past the Disney, star wars phase of my youth and started watching things on my own in the 90s.
Also the first R rated movie I showed to my sons because it's exceptionally tame for that rating.

the guy it’s based on has one of those insane lives
The Tsavi Man Eaters
Discovered a species of Eland
He was leading a safari with a Baron who either killed himself and his wife killed him and that inspired The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber by Hemingway
Fought in the Boer War
Lead the Ulster Volunteers during the Home Rule Crisis
Lead the Jewish Legion during WWI.
The kinda life you only get from career military men in peak british empire.

Sure...I use YTTV's record feature all the time since there's no storage limit.

I always loved this move
Why was it so critically panned?
Ebert absolutely hated it, the director himself has said he thought it was shite
This got me good the first time I watched it as a kid

Example number 956 why the 90s was the best decade for movies. Even an afterthought movie like this is awesome & more entertaining than 99% of the current crap
Great movie. It was a staple watch in the barracks every couple of weeks back in the DVD days.

Spoilers.

The movie is thirty years old and based on a true story. You have to just assume spoilers in any OP about a movie over twenty years IMO. Spoilers before it hits streaming, sure; spoilers after it hits pearl anniversary date, no.

I was half joking, but surprised to see a gif with the scene in it. I agree with your point. Bruce Willis was actually dead throughout the entire Sixth Sense movie.

Didn’t realize you were joking.
