The Silence Of The Lambs

I swear that was scary at one time. I just ended up laughing and laughing at the buffalo bill character, esp when he's putting on make up saying 'would you fuck me?' 'id fuck me' 'id fuck me soooo hard' while wearing someones scalp, then tucking his junk away to take his own picture.

It's just so campy. :D

But it was scary when it 1st came out. :p
 
Pirates 2 - Stagnettis Revenge

Fucking ace :cool: proper big budget porn with loads of silly special effects, absolute babes, hilarious cheesy lines and a followable plot (for a porno). Much better than the already brilliant Pirates. 10/10
 
The Hulk. Best part is the tour of a Brazilian favela at the beginning, although I think what they show is actually a poor or working class area. I suspect that it would be difficult for a film crew to shoot a major motion picture in a favela. Made me want to go to Brazil.:)
 
Recent DVD's ive seen have been:

In Bruge (liked it, v.good)

21 (great! bit to bloody long though)

Sweeny Todd (the new one with johnny dep.. has its brilliant moments, love the revenge plot and the overall way its done but that 'joaana' music dont half bang on abit and kinda spoils it.)

I Am Legand (brilliant)

Tears of the sun (crap)

Happy Gillmore (crap)
 
Watched episodes 4, 5 and 6 of the Sopranos Series 6 (again) - just brilliant. I really really REALLY want the boxset of this, but it costs a friggin fortune
 
Shivers - Cronenberg's first commercial feature - he must have read Charles Platt's The Gas as it's about a slug-like parasite which causes its hosts to lose their sexual inhibitions and get all rapey. It's all confined to a (then) state-of-the-art apartment block and has many typically Cronenbergian/Ballardian elements to it - sexuality and promiscuity commercialised and gone rampant. Great stuff.
 
The New World

I put off watching this for a while because it's so long and it's supposed to be pretty difficult but it was yet another fantastic Terence Malick film. I reckon it's worthwhile just having a quick browse of the history surrounding jamestown and pocohontas before watching but it's not really vital. A bit of patience required for sure but on the other hand I reckon a spliff would get a lot out of it too. Either way it's well worth a look if you're into Malick's style.
 
Mean Streets. As good as it always was, Johnny Boy is one of my favourite characters ever, some cool people in that film.

Remind me never to watch a film with my Mrs again, she put the fucking washing machine on just before it started, got up about every 10 minutes knocking things over, texting or telling my son to do this and that all through then fell asleep before the end.:mad:

Nothing works me up into a furious rage quite like that sort of behaviour when you're trying to watch a film :mad: I can't bear any movement, talking, noise - be quiet, and watch the FUCKING film :mad:

Luckily, Annie is the perfect film partner. She even watches the credits :cool::cool:
 
Schwarze Schäfe (Black Sheep). Kind of a "day-in-the-life-of" film of a bunch of disparate Berliners, from a con-man to some sex-starved Turkish youths to a pair of (LaVeyan) Satanists. It chugs on a bit, but is hilarious in parts.
 
Blindness - shiteness, and featured Kid fucking Rock's national guard recruitment dirge instead of trailers.

Burn Before Reading - nowhere near their best but good enough.

Jerusalema - South African film about a chap who takes control of run down tower blocks from slum landlords. Starts well, v.poor final third.

Various Metalocalypse season 2 episodes. even funnier than season 1.
 
SPOILER ALERT


Just watched Grave of the Fireflies with my little un.

One of my favourite anime things I think.

I've seen it before but thought the ending was different.




On the one I just watched which was recorded off Film4 last night, after the little girl died the boy just said "I never returned to the shelter", then it ended. I was sure on the copy I'd seen there was a bit that tied that bit up with the start sequence.:confused:
