How dare you?! I'm not crazy. Much. After all the guiness I had last night I've had a bit of a shat noir this morning myself.

Film/moving picture show you most recently watched
Happy Face replied to Jimbo's topic in General Chat
Just got round to watching it and thought it was stunning. The best film I've seen from last year by a long long way. Since the dawn of CGI it's rare that a film shot leaves me gobsmacked, I never look at something and wonder how on earth did they do that, because I know how they did it and it's not particularly impressive that a fat nerd sat at a pc and did it. But there's a shot in this that I've now watched 4 times and I'm still baffled. It would be worth it for that alone, but everything in it is as perfectly conceived (pun intended) and executed. It's handheld and shaky but everything is as perfectly framed as could be. I was quite happy with the oscar nominations, but now I realise they're a travesty. This wuz robbed. And an unexpected airing of The Blaydon Races to boot. After seeing Alan Shearers appearance in Beast Cops last week I wouldn't now be surprised if Micky Quinn pops up in the Pursuit of Happyness. Which shot? The seven minute long one in the car. -
Son of Ramnbow is a new British film and was the hit of the Sundance festival. Fox have paid £8million to distribute it.

"James Hewitt, have you had a quickie in the English Rose?"

If you're referring to the initial post, then I don't see how it's naive. I was just curious as to whether anyone has noticed any difference in taste between the different brands of mineral water. no man. e-v-i-a-n n-a-i-v-e

Or just click this link every time you're inclined to buy any... http://files.blog-city.com/files/J05/86734...mokers_lung.jpg

A pint of water works just as well.

The best way to not smoke is to not buy any. This works for me and I can go days and days. I just need everyone I know to stop smoking (and buying) them.

I can't bear Harry Hill when he does his stupid stand-up, but TV Burp is always hilarious Yep same here, his "comedy" is shite but the TV Burp thing is excellent. He should stick to that because he does it very well but everything else is stupid! (although the stupid does creep in a bit when he has the fight thing on the show). I love it all. Mmmm Mmmm Curley Wurley! Liz Hurley! Mmmm Mmmm

quoted to confirm. I've gone 960 minutes so far this time. I'd say this time it's for good...but there's a match on Wednesday.

Fact Hunt Don't forget Harry Hill's TV burp at 6.40 either.

Nice one centurion. Hungover. Might watch some films for a change.

SATURDAY 27TH JANUARY THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN 6.10pm five If you haven't seen this you can't call yourself a bloke. Like the Great Escape and The Bridge on the River Kwai these are films your dad loves. And you should too. BEHIND THE SUN 8.40pm BBC4 I ain't seen it, but it's Walter Salles (who did the Motorcycle Diaries) so should be worth trying. CARLITO'S WAY 11pm ITV4 Brian De Palma and Al Pacino's look at a gangster trying to get out years after doing Scarface about one trying to get in. Sean Penn's best work. BATTLE ROYALE II: REQUIEM 11pm Film4 Absoloute horse shit, don't sour the first one by watching this. THE LAST BOY SCOUT 11.30pm ITV1 I always preferred this to any of the Die Hard's. A very enjoyable buddy cop action comedy. SUNDAY 28TH JANUARY ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES 6.45pm BBC1 The accent doesn't matter, it's not a biography, it's a fun action flick, And bloody good. WATERSHIP DOWN 7.15pm Film4 Parents, sit your kids down and scar them for life with this traumatic nightmare of film horror. DAWN OF THE DEAD 10pm Channel 4 The remake, I've not seen it but it's meant to be the most acceptable of the recent spate of 70's remakes. THE FOG 10pm ITV4 The original John Carpenter one MONDAY 29TH JANUARY CROSS OF IRON 10pm ITV4 Sam Peckinpah, James Coburn, James Mason. Sounds like something. A FISTFUL OF DYNAMITE 1.05am Film4 Not Leone's best work, but still a fantastic film. Rod Steiger is a legend, James Coburn does a terrible Irish accent that it's worth watching for on it's own. Ennio Morricone writes the songs as usual too. TUESDAY 30TH JANUARY SOME LIKE IT HOT 6.40pm Film4 A very very funny film. Tony Cutis's Cary Grant is hilarious. THE COMMITTMENTS 9pm Film4 "Elvis was a Cajun, he drove a Cajun car, he drove it down to Memphis, and that's where he got his start." "Dat's fuckin blasphemy! Elvis wasn't a Cajun." WEDNESDAY 31ST JANUARY JOHNNY GUITAR 4.05pm More4 I haven't seen it and I'm gutted I'll be at work. Need to invest in one of them fangled tv boxes. TONY TAKITANI 00.50am Film4 Tony is lonely so he gets married. His wife likes to shop. He doesn't appreciate it. He's left lonely. NOTHING ELSE HAPPENS! Very slow indeed. I enjoyed it. VIDEODROME 2.20am Film4 I've not seen it, but you can't go wrong with David Cronenberg. THURSDAY 1ST FEBRUARY THE THIEF OF BAGDAD 4.05pm More4 I've not seen it but if, like me, you enjoyed Black Narcissus last week, it's another fix of Powell and Pressberger to hopefully satisfy. THE MAN WITH TWO BRAINS 10pm ITV4 Another Steve Martin classic for those of you who enjoyed The Jerk last week. FRIDAY 2ND FEBRUARY THE BIRDS 10pm ITV3 Hitchcock's the daddy really, his films rain blows on everything else with a snooker ball in a sock. This one doesn't have a score. Difficult to imagine it now when 90% of films rely on the soundtrack to provide the scares. It also explores the unexplained terror of living with a woman on the rag. At least I think so. THE WILD BUNCH 10.20pm ITV4 Another Sam Peckinpah one. Geet violent. And Ernest Borgnine is a personal hero. THE HUSTLER 10.50pm Film4 Paul Newman is the coolest mother fucker this planet ever saw. I don't know what he and Martin Scorsese were thinking when they made the infinitely inferior Colour of Money. If you don't love this film you're a nonce.
