What DVD / Video did you watch last night ?

[rollinder]

First two episodes of Doctor Who - The Deadly Assasin. Tom Baker, fucking about with Time Lord continuity, the Master looking like skelitor as a burns victim, and Tom trapped in a nightmare virtual environment generated via a computer matrix. (this can't have been the first time explored that idea on screen can it?)

Shane Meddows boxset come in the work post today. What should I start with?

I have already seen this is england so not that.

A room for Romeo Brass
Dead mans shoes
twenty four seven

 

[Orang Utan]

24-7 - might as well do it chronolically

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Any good?

 

[Orang Utan]

They're all good mate!

 

[jeff_leigh]

well, as has been much discussed, the original director Tony Kaye made a much darker movie but the studio forced the movie to be reshot or recut (with Norton at the helm), hence the wank ending where Norton meets a nice coloured chap in prison and realises those negroes are lovely after all and naziism is BAD.

is there any way to get hold of the darker version? sounds like a decent movie

 

[corporate whore]

I watched High Noon. 55 years old and it's fucking ace.

"People gotta talk themselves into law and order before they do anything about it. Maybe because down deep they don't care. They just don't care."

 

[foamy]

Trust the man - bit rubbishy but entertaining enough for watching whilst poorly.


My Name is Joe - good but too 'gritty' to really 'enjoy'.

 

[Badgers]

Thinking of buying The Moomins (Seven Discs, DVD Box Set) - £27.99

3 fantastic films, in very different ways.

can i have it?

 

[tastebud]

Been watching Labyrinth today. For about the seventeen millionth time....
I need to buy the soundtrack.

 

[mhendo]

This Film is Not Yet Rated

Light-hearted but also rather depressing look at America's film rating system.

 

[Scaggs]

Just watched an Australian film called 'Kenny'. Brilliant! Funniest film I've seen for years

 

[tastebud]

I watched the Glastonbury film yesterday. It was thoroughly enjoyable, really interesting in parts and humorous. I want to go back to the days of peace, love & sun.
Next year I am determined to get peace, love & sun!

 

[ViolentPanda]

Rock 'n' Roll High School

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Dead mans shoes. Only the second medows film i've seen but I like the style. I would quite like to see medows do a Micheal Bay style project, real and gritty but with some massive robot or hellicopter smashing up a tower block in leeds.

Not as violent and unbearable as I was led to believe. Good film though.

 

[May Kasahara]

I watched Cabin Fever on telly last night. Quite enjoyed it.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I watched Cabin Fever on telly last night. Quite enjoyed it.

My faorate bit (apart from the pay off joke at the end) is Dr Mambo and Ely Roth himself.

 

[May Kasahara]

Who/where is Eli Roth in it? And can you tell me what happened in the cavern that Paul discovers as he's running around looking for Jeff, I was out of the room for a minute. I presume it's the stoner guy's body or something?

 

[tastebud]

Clerks (I also saw the original ending: horrible - glad they changed it but could see what they were trying to do I guess) + episodes of Fawlty Towers and Garth Marenghi's Dark Place.

 

[Badgers]

Reservoir Dogs

 

[Orang Utan]

Elf - mildly diverting I guess
R Kelly - Trapped In The Closet - pant-wettingly funny - is it supposed to be though?

 

[tastebud]

I saw some of that R Kelly thing just before I went to Glasto... I think it's meant to be, yes

 

[fear-n-loathing]

Memento - great film
V for Vendetta - pretty good
Marathon Man - loved it, I'm not going to a dentish in a hurry
Cabin Fever - great film so much better than Hostel

 

[corporate whore]

United 93 - a really well made film, tense as you like and not nearly as sentimental as it could have been.

 

[sojourner]

Queer as Folk, Series 1 - I missed it first time around, quality tv

 

[heartof gold]

poseidon on sky.

 

[corporate whore]

Watched Red Road - was well impressed. It's stark but kept me guessing as to what was going on and what was going to happen. Top performances, too, from a bunch of actors I'd never seen before.

Then when that was finished The Sting was in the telly so I watched that as well. Everyone looks sharp in a hat and cracks wise, great soundtrack and Robert Shaw's always ace.

"Glad to meet you kid, you're a real horse's ass"

 

[Dubversion]

Don't Look Now.

somehow, knowing what's going to happen makes it even MORE tense
