i dunno, it sounds fucking abhorrent. A 'rapey' Danny Dyer film? jesus..
I think it's Dyer who gets raped. With a shotgun. By Sculley from the X-Files. That's not abhorrent to me. ;)
 
The Three Burials Of Melquiadas Estrada - fantastic directorial debut of Tommy Lee Jones. Great views of Texas and Mexico. Great acting. Very moving. Not as funny as Weekend At Bernie's though

This intrigues me

I need to watch this
 
Crown vs Stevens - a very early Michael Powell quota quickie, nothing to write home about really.

Babel - intriguing and engrossing if not entirely convincing, ultimately
 
Not quite DVD, it was Virgin+ & not last night, but i was forced to sit through High School Musical 2 by my niece & nephew at the weekend. Theres 2 hours ill never see again.
 
I'm working me way through first series of the Sopranos, cos I thought I might enjoy it, and there's only 2 & 3 on tvcatchup.

It's okay, there's a couple of really good ironic lines, but I'm not exactly overwhelmed with joy
 
Anyway, the iffy bits include Susan George enjoying the rape and Dustin Hoffman discovering he's a real man by killing the duck. Oh and David Warner being led on by Peter Vaughan's daughter for no obvious reason.

Not really - Straw Dogs is infamous for those acts - it's like saying Ophelia drowns is a spoiler
Err, yes, they are!

You can't pick and bloody choose what you think is a spoiler just because YOU think it's really well known!

I didn't know all of that!

OK - it's just that they way you asked seemed to hint that you knew already
 
watched the first two episodes of Doctor Who The Greatest Show In The Galaxy , thanks to the magic of the internet :cool:
Sylvester being an idiot - Ace being terrified of clowns - scary Pieriot and killer robot ones too and a down right creapy 50s/american family demanding entertainment.

Don't think I saw it at the time - just remember bits from seeing photographs and getting the book out of the libary a few years later.
 
Raining Stones

Okay, but I think Boys from the Blackstuff captured despairing poverty in a less clumsy and more poignant way
 
'Sunshine' and it was rubbish - probably would have been a lot better on a big screen, where'd it would have been easier to let the excellent visuals distract you from the tired old plot.
