The thing about The Core is, despite the film being shite, the guy who wrote it (and Catwoman! Not a good track record...) has one of the most consistently entertaining blogs on the internet:

Anyway, I watched The Wire and Screenwipe.

Pourquoi pas moi?

Funny, poignant, plus gorgeous chicks - a queer fairytale with some hometruths thrown in for good measure

Loved it :cool: My daughter even watched it, and it had subtitles:eek: :D
 
today -
clips of Marc Bolan performing on Marc on the dvd that came with the T. Rex 25 Anniversary best of comp
the drummer kept giving "I can't belive we got this gig/are getting paid for doing this" grins towards the guitarist in dungarees!.
Marc started off looking desperate & a cross between Souxie Soux & Robert Smith but in the later clips he'd cut down on the whitye face paint & was really geting into it - full on feral/preening.

shame the songs were cut short, wonder if this was done for the bonus dvd or if they didn't do full performances on the programme?


and Daleks Invasion Earth 2150 AD on the telly

Peter Cushing as Doctor Who, Bernard bloody Cribbins doing 'comedy', ramraiding daleks in an old old van :cool:, daleks killing people via fire extinguiser suffication :D - load of bollocks really - wish I'd got the real thing.

The Core is so shit its shitter.

For some reason I have stuck this shit on several times when I have been drunk.

My god it's shit.
 
Keane - a film about a mental bloke wandering around muttering to himself and almost doing bad things. I guess it was intended to convey what it must be like to be schizophrenic. It was quite compelling and intense and well acted but it didn't ring true for me. Not that I would know. Still, a good effort - great sound too
 
The Moguls - Jeff Bridges does his everyman thing as a fella trying to break out of midlife mundanity by recruiting the whole town to make a porno flick.

Was alright - some laughs, Bridges watchable as per usual, decent cast.
 
Bull Durham

Really enjoyed this film - great script, great performances, warm and funny and sweet but not sentimental. Amazed to see Tim Robbins playing such an unlikeable boor; even more amazed to actually like Kevin Costner in a film, for once. Susan Sarandon was top notch as always, plus on a purely physical level she looks absolutely stunning - fantastic legs!

Damn I missed it! I love shit films. Haven't seen that one yet. Speaking of shit films, I'm going to watch Robocop 3 in a bit. Anyone else seen it? Should I bother?
 
Planet terror on the weekend, fucking ace, kicks the arse off death proof.. well funny and an instant classic in my book !
 
The Johnny Cash TV Show

absolutely stunning - a double DVd of highlights from his 69-71 TV show.. Tony Joe White, Dylan, Orbison, Neil Young, Johnny & June, lots of schmaltz and nonsense

fantastic
 
ok Robocop was shit - made for 'the family' and he flies! Rubbish. Now I'm gonna watch The Core - judging by the start, it looks like May and AS are right - suicidal pigeons! Ray!
 
Hahaha, it's still brilliantly shit at that stage - you wait till later, you'll be losing the will to live long before the film reaches its rubbish, predictable end :D
 
a scientist stood on a hill and said, 'god, I hate this sky' and then they got in the ship and some whales came and sang to them. This is great! Not sure if the science is sound, mind.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

That's plain awful on a par with Batman and Robin or Spawn. It's way beyond the entertaining crap a la Core or the 'badness as an art form' of Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. It's just embarrassing.
 
Two from Box Of The Banned vol2:
Contamination - dreadful Italian Alien rip-off. Rubbish exploding stomach scenes. Great soundtrack from Goblin as usual.
Don't Go Near The Park - very strange plot, some appalling action with execrable script, but a good laugh in a Plan 9 From Outer Space kinda way.
 
I finally finished The Sopranos series 1. It really started to come together about halfway through and I enjoyed it. Having watched the last one this morning, I intend to start the second series today

Sounds quite good :D
Gonna watch two more tomorrow - The Witch That Came From The Mountain, which sounds well dodgy, and Evilspeak - about a hacker who writes a programme that gets possessed by the devil or something - was made in 1982 so will be hilarious
