What DVD / Video did you watch last night? (pt2)

Night Of The Living Dead - the 1990 remake. I haven't seen the original in years and years but this is actually bloody good.
 
Mongol.

Firing a bow from a galloping horse accurately really deserves one to pwn the known world

I enjoyed that, too. Pretty brutal but beautifully filmed. I would've liked it to go on and see him conquering the whole fucking world with his archery, mind. :cool:

I've got 'Munich' to watch sometime this week although I've been in a bit of a pissy mood of late so I'm not sure it's a particularly good idea. Something by Pixar might be more up my street at the mo.
 
Mongol

Quite good, if only for some bouts of intensely violent swordplay. History info was a little thin on the ground but it was fairly well made
 
I watched "The Class" a true story about this guy teaching in a rough Paris school, it is pretty good, amazing acting.

Yes - the kids are amazing in that. I watched it with a teacher and she sat through it as if she were in the class room with the kids - tense, agitated and a bit stressed.
 
1/2 way through watching In Bruge... got to where both of them was gonna murder/suicide in the park.
Funny so far, but got tired so will watch it again from the begining sometime soon.
 
Probably not watching tonight but just opened the post and had this sent to me. The whole seven discs of Attenborough makes me smile despite the DM branding :)
 
Just watched Altered States. Fantastically intense film with a good strong female lead, let down in the closing moments (but still good).
 
The Age Of Stupid. Pete Postlethwaite looks back on an ecologically-destroyed planet and tries to make sense of it all. Not bad, less earnest than I thought it'd be. A mate of mine's in it which was my main reason for watching it.
 
Half of Land & Freedom, had to go bed. Watch the rest tonight as it's good although I don't think it really needed the framing device.
 
Inglourious Basterds

Pretty standard Tarantino fare, I thought. Not awful, but almost painfully slow and plodding buildup, leading to a rather typical set-piece big bang ending.

Alright, but not on my list of things to see again.
