Given that definition, I get the feeling THRUSH has won.

That was made up by David McDaniels for his U.N.C.L.E. novels, in the tv show it was just Thrush. I can't remember if it was in the book on the tv show, or an interview with Sam Rolf, where it was said that Thrush is an old definition for 'death rattle'. They were looking for something that was unusual for the show.

They showed this on AMC last night, I had watched it on the FX channel last year, and I have to say I was wrong.

I said that it would be an entertaining and exciting action movie. It was none of those. There were only one scene that might have come from the TV show, that is where Solo, when realizing that he has been drugged, makes himself comfortable. The only other scene I liked, was where one of the bad guys is was killed by his own device.

In the movie U.N.C.L.E. was a code name, not an organization. They could have easily changed that at the ending, by having Waverly reveal that they have been working for a covert law enforcement agency the whole time as a test for membership.

So much missed opportunity.

David.
