Tillsammans (Together).

still absolutely excellant
I love that film. Lukas Moodysson(sp?) is a brilliant director imo, have you seen 'Fucking Åmål'?

Oh and I watched the Assassination of Richard Nixon last night. It was a bit crap.
 
no - sadly it isnt in the LoveFilm selection*! Have got Lilya 4ever & Hole in my Heart on order tho.

& Assasination of nixon, should I not bother with that then dya think?



(*aah, its also known as Show Me Love - now bidding for it on ebay)

I wouldn't bother with Nixon. Its slow and boring and although there is some great acting in it (Sean Penn great as always) it never really gets going.

Definitely get 'Fucking Åmål' though.
 
Snatch.

I liked it, but it seemed they were trying to be the English Pulp Fiction.

Brad Pitt can't do impressions (unless pikeys really talk like that)

Do pikeys look like that, ie like regular white british people? What's all the fuss about?

Lots of good zany accents. A token American. Pretty funny. All in all, I'd give it a B.

watched Gremlins on TV - astonishing how shit this is compared with the sheer majesty of Gremlins II (next Sunday :) )

Yay! Something we agree on about films! I didn't think Gremlins was shit, but I thought two was better. 2 actually got a bit of a pasting at the time, but if you watch it now, it's fantastic, where 1 has dated a bit.

The best bit in gremlins 2 has to be that bit where the video kicks in "Because of the end of civilisation, Clamp Corporation is now going offline..."
 
Richard Prior "Live & Smokin'".

Brings a whole new meaning to low-budget recording but the second half of the act where he gets into wino/junkie character is mesmerizing.
There was a 50minute docu on there too but it featured Richard Blackwood so I had to smash my tv in protest. Don't know if it was any cop.
 
Equilibrium - interesting premise but failed to make any sense - there were too many 'but if....then why....?' moments that come with badly thought out sci fi pics.
 
An early Herzog film called Fata Morgana - bascially just an extended series of typical Herzog images with music over the top and some readings from the Popol Vuh spoken in German. Apparently it tells the story of the birth and fall of earth as seen from the viewpoint of an alien race....anyway, it was exellent with some unforgettable/moving images and very fitting music.

For those of you with Lovefilm, they've got a fair few of the harder to find Herzogs (Only Dwarves Start Small, Stozek etc) tucked away, but for some reason they're not listed un his name - you'll have to search by title.

I reckon it's a very watchable movie tho - and I'm really surprised no one has picked up Gun-Kata in other movies too.
 
40 year old virgin (from DL) - has its moments but I'm fucked if I can remember anything about it today. For lads nights in with tons of beer and weed.
 
Pie Face and i watched the DVD of Dave Gorman's Googlewhack Adventure..

saw this at the theatre and absolutely loved it, and the DVD is excellent. even though i knew what was coming, it's still incredibly funny and actually moving in places.

highly recommended. NB - even thought it's long for a comedy show - 2 hours - you MUST watch it in one sitting, if you lose the momentum i think the effect of the ending would be diminished / ruined

Not last night but the night before 'Eyes wide shut'!

Makes me very horny! ;)

Hahaha, that's so true, I once found myself stopping that movie in the bedroom scene so I could have sex, maybe the guy I was with put that particular movie on on purpose... :p

Today I watched Short Fuse.
