[Part 2]

More six feet under, seems to have good and less good episodes. Still on the first series, 3 episodes to go.

 

[ilovebush&blair]

Andy Warhol (David Bowie) trying to 'see' like Basquiat, by wearing a 'Basquiat' crash helmet.

 

[Part 2]

Last 3 eps of six feet under, not sure I'll bother with anymore. Mrs Barm enjoyed it though so you never now.

you're making want to watch that now

my recent viewing - The Second Coming Episode 1
meant to just check the dvd because amazon's blurb suggests it's a feature edit, ended up watching the whole of episode 1. Still epic, amazing and one of the best bits of recent telly I've seen. Def a newer contender for last of the truly great programmes made by/for ITV.
First time since the original broadcast - the intro / pre-credits bit brought back the whole rush of knowing this was going to be something more than great and important and maybe he's going to turn out to not be Jesus but abducted by aliens or something.
Weird noticing all the moments where Christopher Eccleston suddenly give a manic smile or goes all chatty then despairing and is The Doctor, only better and further - and this was why his performance in Doctor Who was sort of a disappointment. Spent part of my original viewing slightly confused because I'd muddled my Our Friends In The North actors/characters and expected Daniel Craig being like Nicky

eta: just like the first time I felt the hatred for Richard & Judy and there ilk's exploitation of serious issues, encouraging people's paranoia and despair.

Forgot this had the fake news and comment show clips too - another RTD thing that worked better here than in Who.

Made more connections between why things happened in part 1 and what I remember happening in part 2, just why the woman being unable leave her life/children led her to try and do what she tried to do in the next episode - from her pov she'd just been rejected by God.

and there's a comment/statement about us having to work together to sort things out (I think re the writing of the new testament) that is exactly why what happens in the end has to happen. & it suddenly clicked, the significance of Judy/Judith/Judas & why she has to be the one to do it.

Very (but pleasently) surprised to be suddenly hit by the next episode trailer, just I remembered it.

and earlier in the week
Life Of Brian, off video Much better 2nd time round, doesn't really work watched with adverts, and missing bits due to popping in and out.
I've had the "a man called Brian" Bond theme type song in my head ever since.

[Badgers]

Die Hard 2

Cheesy classic isn't it?

 

[Captain Hurrah]

Die Harder!

I thought the fourth one was shite.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

A Complete History Of My Sexual Failures - Likeable loser Chris Waitt sets out to document why his relationships with women have always been total disasters. It starts out as a knockabout bit of fun before turning darker when we discover he suffers from erectile dysfunction and may have mental health issues. Some of the scenes and scrapes he gets into are somewhat contrived and he's clearly an odd bloke. But overall it works and you end up caring about him, whilst sympathising with the women who have had to deal with his bullshit over the years.

Can't say I sympathized with him much. I thought he was too much of a dick from the start and it just seemed dig up how much more of a dick he had been in the past as it went along. Still, a fairly entertaining film considering that and the subject matter. Sags a bit in places, especially before the first half is over.

 

[belboid]

Skeletons.

Very very funny Britpic about exorcists removing the skeletons from peoples' cupboards.

 

[100% masahiko]

The Killer Inside Me - is a one fuckin' crazy ass film. I loved the uneasiness, the graphic violence, the complexity of the sheriff and his version of love. Recommend!

I am Love - Upstairs/ downstairs, forbidden relationships...is it possible to leave the family/ status for a chance with a lover? Pretty good. Nice shots.

 

[krtek a houby]

One Missed Call - Takashi Miike horror flick

 

[QueenOfGoths]

'Razer' - the BSG one-off TV film thingy. Really enjoyed it as I have all the BSG stuff. Plus Mr. QofG's had a bit of a fan-boy ejaculation moment when one of the old style cylons said "By Your Command!"

Oh and various Star Trek filums on Film 4 "I have been and always shall be your friend"!!

 

[Cm7]

Harry Brown - impressive beginning. falling flat at the end.

Coco and Igor - love the look of the film. the whole art deco thing. I'm not a designer brand chaser, but what amazing costumes the lead lady wears.

 

[krtek a houby]

Also; Nicholas and Alexandra. Tom Baker was rather fun as Rasputin.

 

[ilovebush&blair]

A town called panic superb.

 

[rollinder]

bit of Johnny English on the telly, it was alright, Rowan Atkinson got to be offensive about Archbishops.

So that's where Robbie Williams' Man For All Seasons came from.

 

[Captain Hurrah]

Red Detachment of Women. The 1961 version, so not the 1971 film of the Jiang Qing-endorsed ballet, when she was in charge of Culture. It was okay, and reminded me of the Soviet films I've seen over the years.

 

[Reno]

Get Him to the Greek, which was better than expected, considering it's not my type of film at all. I don't get Jonah Hill though. He's not particularly funny, likeable or charismatic.

 

[gavman]

macgruber. i laughed so much i had laughter withdrawal for the next three days...until my favourite episode of alan partridge was repeated this week
(the one where he does the presentation for the south african fireplace company)

 

[andy2002]

The Brides Of Dracula - it hasn't aged well although there are a couple of genuinely chilling moments and Peter Cushing's always worth watching.

 

[andy2002]

I don't get Jonah Hill though. He's not particularly funny, likeable or charismatic.

That's really hit the nail on the head, I think - he's just a charmless oaf who got lucky.

 

[100% masahiko]

Flashbacks of a Fool - Not as bad as expected.

 

[Reno]

The Brides Of Dracula - it hasn't aged well although there are a couple of genuinely chilling moments and Peter Cushing's always worth watching.

This is one of my favourite Hammer horrors, because it's so beautifully shot and art directed. There is a real fairy tale feel to the film. They just missed a trick by not having the extremely scary looking Martita Hunt becoming the main villain after she has been bitten. Her camp, platinum blonde son doesn't look like much of a thread.

 

[The Rural Juror]

A Single Man. Beautifully shot, wonderfully acted, although I think the ending was a bit disappointing. But a brilliant debut movie

That's one of my main gripes with it - the vampire bad guy is laughably awful. You're spot on about its fairytale feel though - Tim Burton was clearly a fan.

 

[dlx1]

missed end fell a sleep

its the bloke from Chopper

Alice Creed, load of shit

True Blood Season 3 marathon was ace.
