thanks to mangolightly, i have generation kill AND the corner to entertain me in the absence of the perma-broken Hospico entertainment centre
 
I watched a 1967 documentary called The London Nobody Knows presented by a well tailored James Mason wandering the streets of London pointing out the weird and the wonderful. Lots of it all gone now. A great historical film!
 
The Hidden Blade - Wife made me stay up to watch it. It was pretty damn good actually, but I wish it had been on mid afternoon, I don't much like staying up so late.

:cool: Don't you think James Mason is particularly weird and wonderful in that film?
 
'The Man with the Golden Arm' - I've been meaning to see this for years. It took me a while to get used to the charicatures at first, but I really got into it once I got over that.
 
Terminator three doesn't exist. It should have a different name. Something that sets it aside from the first two and makes it obvious that it is a shit film

I agree. It fucks up the Terminator "canon" big-time. It should have a title like "Terminator Alternate Timeline: Destination Spodsville" or something like that.
 
I Am Legend – one of those rare films that could have done with another half-hour. Great for 60 minutes then wrapped up a bit too quickly and not terribly satisfactorily.
 
i tried to watch donnie darko, but the dvd stopped about 10 minutes in.
same with pecker.

didn't even bother trying secretary :mad:
 
Finally watched No Country For Old Men, didn't like it too much. I don't know why, usually love Coen brothers' films, maybe I just wasn't in the right mood.
 
watched 5 of the 7 now, and it is jolly good. Not as maginficent as tyhe reviews made out at the time, most of the accents are kinda all over the place, but it's generally well done and on a bit of histroy I realise I didn't know that much about

well, the last two (episodes of John Adams) were less exciting. His Presidency was marked by a 'quasi' war, so not even any fighting, and afterwards he was just, pretty dull really. So somewhat anti-climactic, but still worth the viewing.

Heroes eps 16-19
BSG S4 e21/22
