King of Kong last night. Was a fairly interesting watch with a friend while we drank lots of wine.

Today I watched In This World. I thought it was very good. Made me cry too!
 
Bleak Moments

I really liked this, for several reasons - Norman, ciggies smoked in work, Liz Smith, the slowness, the sherry, the sexual tension in THAT scene, and the (probably) unintentionally funny moments.

Mike Leigh in 1971 - nowt much changed after that eh? :D
 
It's hilarious!

I agree, Tropic Thunder is a classic. Unlike fucking Pineapple Express which I wasted an hour on before turning it off the other night. Absolute PESH.

I also watched The Cell with Jennifer Lopez. Contrary to popular belief, I didnt think it was that bad story wise, a bit ropey like but not shit........but........the visuals....fucking hell.....this is one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen, pissing on The Fall and even Delicatessen in terms of eyecandy.

Worth watching if you go for amazing photography over plot :)
 
I watched the penultimate episode of series 2 of The Wire. Great stuff, will watch final episode tonight. And I've got DVD of series 3 waiting in the wings. :cool:
 
Almost all of my DVD collection was left in the UK as I couldn't carry them but I have a load converted to WMV and an slowly recollecting the lost ones.
I was just given a combo DVD with all the Star wars movies. I just converted the lot and watched Episode 3, A new hope last night.
Just got 4 more bond films today and Cage's 'next'.
 
finally started on Mad men last night. Not bad stuff, based on the first two.

Not a great time for mrs b to decide to give up smoking tho :)

i thought it was pretty shit overall, but it did have some visually pretty ace bits. Like the bit with the horse getting sliced up :eek:
 
Live action film of "Death Note" - noy bad, I'd read iffy reviews and the CGI of Ryuk was a bit funny at times but on the whole I enjoyed it.

Thought the guy playing "L" was brilliant.
 
Profundo Rosso - overlong, incoherent and tedious like so many Italian giallos, yet saved by some gruesome and visually splendid set pieces and Goblin's first and best Argento soundtrack
 
Marie Antoinette with Kirsten Dunst. Enjoyed it more than I thought I would, I liked the 20th century touches like the soundtrack and the Converse. Not much actually happened though!
 
i'm being forced to watch quarantine atm :(

i'm hiding behind my laptop and cringing at the screams, banging and crunching noises :(

the cameraman's just battered an old lady to death with his camera though and he's wiping blood off the lens :cool:
 
Re-watched the last 4 episodes of the Wire S4, so that I could start watching S5 - and then watched the first 3 episodes of S5 :oops::D

My lass came down at one point and went 'how fucking many have you watched now???', so I started counting on my fingers, and she went 'if you have to count, it's too many mum' :D
