C'mon suggest a few more decent films, my rental list is getting low.

No sci fi or love stories.

Shame, I was gonna build it up to be a cross between 'Walk the Line" and 'The Godfather'!

Infernal Affairs has had a few showings on Film 4.
dir John Chan - subtitled.

The Departed is a remake of it but IA is the class film.

Has anyone got a media player?
Great wee yoke for films. It's basically an external HD that plugs into your tele and plays films. I take mine to work and leech of others.

Went to see Vantage Point last night.

Really enjoyed it - keeps you thinking the whole way through

The end could have been better

If you like 24 you'll love this film

Shortso rating 9/10

Saw a few good British films recently:

Love, Honour and Obey
Rise of the foot soldier and
Sexy Beast.

Apparently The Business with Danny Dyer is great too.

An all time classic was on last night - Roadhouse.

I also finally found a region 2 copy of the greatest fight film of all time - Bloodsport!

Anybody seen "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"? I went to see it last night and although there is a bit of the chick flick about it I thought it was absolutely hilarious. SOme great one liners and embarrassing scenes to keep people entertained. Oh and no shortage of Eye Candy as well ... WOWZA!

I was thinking some of the dodgy shirt, hairdos and goings-on were reminiscent of The Mariners. I even seen you doing a Sam Elliot on the bar aswell, well maybe without the knife!

I heard that 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall was supposed to be good. Might go and see it. Anyword on what Iron Man is meant to be like?

Went to 'Lars and the real girl' with last week.

Its a very very quirky film, surprisingly so for an American flim, with an original plot.

She loved it and I would say I enjoyed it. But stay away if you don't like quirky.

Your typical Superman-type film

Might go see it over the weekend

Don't go see the new Harold and Kumar movie - it's seriously shit
