Thats an awful film.

Just watched NEDS. Great film, with a slight weird ending. I'm sure there was some significance to it, and I can think of a few possible answers. Anyone else seen it? What are your thoughts?

Today I actually went to the CINEMA....OMG!

I took my littlest man to see Arthur Christmas and it is smashing. Really good film. IN SANTA WE BELIEVE......We saw a trailer for the new Aardman film (Wallace & Gromit) called The Pirate Captain and we are both very excited about that coming to the cinema next year! It looks ace.

This evening I watched The Arbor. A film about the life of playwright Andrea Dunbar (Rita, Sue & Bob Too) and the fallout within her family of her early death. Her only daughter Lorraine (orphaned at 10) became a drug addict/thief/prostitue/victim of domestic violence and had numerous children removed from her care only then have one son returned to her who she accidentally killed by feeding him Methadone. Strangely compelling, a study of right hard living.

Just watched Peter Jackson's The lovely bones. Great film, had me fighting back the tears on more than one occasion.

Watched Mean Streets again last night.
There ain't no one cooler than Bobby D and that's a fact, yessiree ....

Disappointed to have to tear myself away from Rocky last night after the triumphant stair climb at the end of the training montage. Watching on ITV4+1 & it were getting late.

It's a great scene. Just bought my dad a picture of the jump at the top of the stairs for his 65th.

Returner (2002)

Japanese scifi borrowing unashamedly from many other scifi films and with a good slice of high body count Ninja gangster thrown in. Girl from future returns to past to try and prevent Alien invasion. Good soundtrack as well. What more do you want? Only 35% on the Tomatometer but I liked it :thumbup:

Getting excited..................
