Both quality films.

The quicksand incident in Kekexli is naaaaaaaaaaasty.



Finally got round to watching This is England last night. Bit of an abrupt ending I thought but supoib all the same.

The Wire, series 4 episodes 1-4

Nihilistic stuff.

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

 

[jeff_leigh]

Jumper - Entertaining enough but for me it just didn't feel like a movie, More like a pilot for a TV series IYSWIM

 

[Scaggs]

Watched Cronocrímenes, Los[Time Crimes], a Spanish film about time travel. Unusual but exciting film with no special effects or big stars, just a good story. Wish Hollywood producers would try something similar.

 

[Strumpet]

Tonight not last night but.....just watched This Is England.
My stomach is still in a knot from the tension throughout the whole film. Damn good.

 

[foo]

stayed up too late and finished series 3 of the Wire.

i still want more.

 

[Part 2]

Watched 4 episodes of City of Men yesterday afternoon. It was okay, not brilliant.

 

[Ranbay]

Sat- Zack and Miri make a porno.,.. rather good funny and that.

 

[ooo]

Transporter 3

Nothing new.
Actions, actions, and more actions.

 

[zenie]

Over tha last week I've watched the dead girl (alright), In bruges (wicked!!! ), and Indiana Jones and the crystal skull (shite )

Gonna watch The Women tonight....

 

[Yetman]

Animatrix after a load of mdma and six fat lines of ketamine................FUCK OFF. JUST. FUCK OFF

One of the maddest experiences of my life without actually physically moving anywhere. I'm going to buy it today. Unbefuckinglievable.



Also watched South Park S12, League of Gentlemen and Story of Maths (all excellent )

 

[corporate whore]

Finished series 4 of The Wire over the weekend.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Tropic Thunder. Over the top, ridiculous, and funny.

 

[Strumpet]

Madagascar2

*chuckles*

 

[The Octagon]

Wire Season 1, Episodes 5 and 6.

Good stuff, maybe I'm a bit geeky, but I love the wiretap stuff (codes, painstaking police work, etc).

 

[Badgers]

More True Blood which I like but can't quite work out yet

 

[Sadken]

I watched 3 episodes of Jericho, which I suggested to mrs ken we watch. I thought it was a wasted opportunity to do something very good. Mrs K loved it.

 

[Treehugger76]

I watched the Gingko Tree, it was ok

 

[sojourner]

First 3 episodes of the Wire S3

 

[corporate whore]

The Caine Mutiny - more Bogart, with added bonus of a brief appearance by a young Lee Marvin. Is essentially A Few Good Men at sea. Solid, if unspectacular.

 

[Fedayn]

Last exit to Brooklyn.

Brilliant.

 

[Diamond]

After falling asleep the last time I tried to watch it, I gave Quiz Show another chance last night and it were bloody good too. John Turturro gives a brilliant performance.

 

[Orang Utan]

Hidden Fortress - very funny Kurosawa romp wot George Lucas nicked for Star Wars.

 

[Sadken]

You working your way through a kurosawa boxset?

More True Blood which I like but can't quite work out yet

Plenty of red-herrings along the way with True Blood, but it's a great series overall. One of the few progs that both the missus and me are both fans of. New series coming next year, too - WooHoo!

On the subject of vampires, saw a really atmospheric Swedish vampire film the other night: "Let the right one in" (bit of a crap title, I know)

Beautifully filmed, and some great acting. A very thoughtful film, but not without its fair share of gore!

[Sadken]

I know! It was insania. Shipping rounded it out to about 16 quid or so as I recall; still mental cheap though.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

Sopranos Seasons 5 episodes 4 & 5 - I'm re-watching with G/F as she's never seen it.
