Waffle On about Taken. Hello and Happy New Year to everyone, lets all hope 2022 will be a corker. We hope you all are safe and well.  So Meds and Kell decided to start this years run of Waffle On in style with a great pop corn movie. Sometimes you just want to pop a film on, watch some mindless violence and enjoy seeing the bad guys get their teeth kicked in and legs electrocuted. Made in 2008 this film changed the direction of Liam Neesons career. He went from being a romantic actor to a leading action star. The film produced 2 sequels and a tv series. The films were written by legendary film maker Luc Besson, a often over looked creator who has produced some amazing films such as Fifth Element, Le Femme Nikita, Leon and the brilliant French Taxi films.  As usual please write in via waffleonpodcast@gmail.com or join our Facebook group and send us your thoughts.
