The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Trailer

I know it's not the original - but this looks good. And gaming wise would have a great look about it (Brummie Thug has done it, as has Kiss Kiss Bang Bang):

I can't believe that I wasn't aware of that movie before.
Looking forward to it.

I'm having recollections of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, but I suppose that's down to the choice of setting. Directed by Guy Ritchie (I should have known by the cuts) and I can't say that I've not liked any of the movies of his I've seen.

Is that a H&K UMP at 1.48? I know it couldn't be, but I'm curious. No idea what the rifle at 1.09 is either. ???

Are the bad guys THRUSH cause you can get cream for it nowadays. I know this film has been on a low boil since the late 90s. A friend of mine used ideas for scenarios from the TV show so I'll be guessing the film will inspirer  him.
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass....and I'm all out of bubblegum. No wait I've just found another pack in my back pocket. Mmm tropical fruit bubblicious.

I particularly like that they seem to have gone for a kind of prequel to the TV series judging by '1963'. Far more my thing than mid-late '60s camp... although that's still a guilty pleasure of mine. Early '60s is where it's at, when men actually wore 50 shades of grey (flannel).

I'm lukewarm on Guy Ritchie movies, but Crossing my fingers for this.  :)

Thanks for posting that.  I was unaware of the coming movie.  Of course, for "men of a certain age,"  Robert Vaughn will always be Napoleon Solo.

You can check which weapons appear in a movie on the Internet Movie Firearms Database:

Great resource, I recommend just browing through the great classics like Aliens and Terminator 1+2 just for fun  8)

We'll see how the story is when it comes out. I have my doubts. Reminds me, I have 23 episodes of UNCLE on my DVR that I have to watch yet!  :o

Now, I am excited for the latest Bond film, Specter. The new teaser trailer just came out.


It's a good time for those of use who like good spy stories!

Yes indeed. I plan on getting me another Nexus miniatures British agent and hasslefree alexander to make me a Spectre bond. Though it looks like I may need a few more for this.

I think its a H&K MPL, the predecessor of the UMP and MP5
