watched some more Black Books last night.

I respect their decision to leave it at 3 series, but even still - fuck, i could watch that programme forever.

I think it actually improves on repeated watchings.....
 
it's still a damn tough call between clownrobics & the ace of spades as the funniest tv comedy scenes i've ever seen

Some Danish flick called 'Manslaughter', about an activist who runs over a rozzer. Pretty good.

That's called 'Drabet' in Danish. If you liked that you should watch 'Arven' and 'The Bench' they are awesome films too.
 
As a result of a recent 'Film Noir' thread I have set myself a task to plough through a series of rental/cheapo market stall/TCM channel Noirs. Be they Neo Noir, Tech Noir, Film Noir or Carte Noir :rolleyes: ............

last night I did the original Cape Fear :cool:
 
Watched Wolf Creek last night

This film should be compulsory viewing for any prospective gap year students.

Based upon a true story about some falconio style murders by a redneck in the Australian outback

"Jeez Ma! dem locals are strange!"

Full of tension. Shame it won't work on repeated viewings.
 
Grizzly Man - spent all the time watching it trying to work out if it was a spoof.

The Proposition - very good but too quiet and atmospheric to watch on my small TV and whirring DVD player :rolleyes:
 
Finally got around to watching Fight Club; how I've managed to avoid spoilers for seven years is a miracle, going into it I just assumed "middle-class bored cunts fight at night, one of 'em dies possibly" or summat, how wrong I was, and how pleased I was, a genuinely very good and funny film. Had to rewind and pause "that" bit right before the credits as I thought I was going mad.

I say.
 
Just watched Breakfast On Pluto in the open air cinema. Not one of Patrick McCabe's best books but a great film despite some wobbly moments like a hopelessy miscast Gavin Friday.
 
Clerks 2, wasnt bad but wasnt amazing, but saying that i wasnt a huge fan fo the first Clerks os if you liked the first one deff worth watching.
 
Alphaville was on again, with the adorable Eddie Constantine. I love this film.

"I'd like to make a call"
"Local or intergalactic?"

"You go through life protecting the things you love the most"

"Here are gentlemen Jekyll and Hyde"
 
Heat and Collaternal in preperation for Miami Vice next week :cool:

Between the two of them i still regard the coffee shop screne and the final handshake in Heat to be a couple of the most poweful scenes.

So right you are. The sound track for miami vice looks good, as does the trailers for the film. One of the posters above mentioned jekyll and hyde and I always thought that david wickes adaptation was the best I've seen. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099875/
Kenneth brannagh tried to do it with frankenstein, but didn't quite manage the feat.

That was a scene from Alphaville. Have you seen Rouben Mamoulian's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by the way?
 
I heart Huckabees

and I really do. What a mind blowing film. Wonderful stuff.

I heart Mark Wahlberg. Interesting to learn that David O Russell, the director/writer had a bit part in Adaptation.
