Subject: Films for Necromunda, What would they watch in the Hive?
Am thinking a film poster or two would allevialte the tedium of bare concrete Hive walls.
So what films would be suitable for Hive viewing.
So far I can only come up with:
Spyrerman.
The Shawshank Redemptionist.
To Scavv and to Scavv Not
Can't think of any more as I am too busy dreaming of Lauren Bacall
Anyhoo struggling back to the matter in hand,
any suggestions for films that would make good banners for the Hive walls welcomed please
thanks in advance!

East-Spire Enders - A serialised show which charts the exploits of the East-Spire Enders, a gang from the East-Spire. Follows their attacks on surrounding gangs, as well as all the twisted internal politics of long-lost brothers returning to the gang to bring it down from within, "Who is the dad" slapper ho stories, and the struggle for dominance as the alpha male and leader of the East-Spire Enders.
What Lies Beneath – A film about underhive mutant psychers messing with a good Emp fearing family and scaring the pants off them, before finally being beaten through faith and superior fire power.
The Descent – Exploration of the underhive by a scavvy party uncovers a nest of mutants. The survivors are picked off one by one until only one survives. Will they be able to make it back to the hive and warn the authorities to initiate a purge?
"Guess Who's Coming to 3rd Work-Break?" Thrill to the madcap antics of the Emperor-Fearing Redemptionist Red family as their oldest juve brings home a brown-eyed man from the next hab-block over. Will they come together in peace and racial harmony, or will the Redemptionist Reds learn that sickening and abnormal mutations such as brown-eyes need to be purged with flame and gunfire?

lol like the western flavour of How the Underhive was won
As Necromunda has a wild west theme.
Also PDF recruiment could be good if I knew what to do.
For an in joke with the kids that will be using the terrain, one of my gangers, and a bit of a hero is called Peepee Toolate.
So they would probably appreciate a poster for Nanny McPee. (Schoolboy humour never fades )
It Wouldn't Happen To You/It Would Never Happen To You, the story of an Enforcer meeting a waitress at a bar after a shoot out, inheriting a crap-load of cash from his recently dead great-uncle, who happened to be a high-ranking a noble from the Spire, then moved over the Wall and never saw a piece of action until he died at age 209.
Inquisitor Poterum and Tzeentch's Stone Inquisitor Poterum and the Chamber of Tzeentch Inquisitor Poterum and the Possessed of Tzeentch Inquisitor Poterum and the Goblet of Tzeentch Inquisitor Poterum and the Ordo Maelus Inquisitor Poterum and the Half-blood Helmawr Inquisitor Poterum and the Deathly Force Weapons
Killers, the story of a Vindicare assassin meeting a Callidus assassin, and falling in love. When the Inquisition find out, they try to do everything they can to stop this coupling, but they are too elite for everyone and kick ass.
Inglorious Bastards, a group of 50 or so Catachans who bring down an entire rebellion single handedly.
Dear Johann, the story of a hiver who falls for a guardsmen (sorry, talking to my girlfriend about her favourite movies ). Please be sure to add that this is directed by Nicos Sparlus, a director who is widely considered to be gay, or similar.
Peace
Doop
