Only saw Scrooged for the first time yesterday, enjoyed it.

How have you not seen it until now??

Probably because it's arguably the most predictable film ever, but Christmas boredom (&Sky Plus) came into play. Went looking for the Money Pit in HMV a month ago to be told it was discontinued, got to record it on BBC last week too
Jesus wept. Predictable like every other movie adaptation of a book, the ending of which is known to just about the entire Western world?! I correctly predicted that the big ship in the Titanic would sink as did pretty much every person who went to see it (apart from Armagh4SamAgain and Olly) but it is one of the highest grossing movies of all time.

Watched Born on the Fourth of July again during the week. Immense performance from Tom Cruise - desperately unlucky to find himself up against Daniel Day-Lewis playing Christy Brown the same year.

i never watch movies but saw  Inglourious Basterds  during the week and thought it was brilliant
Crossmolina Deel Rovers
All Ireland Club Champions 2001

The Real Laoislad

Watched the Fighter earlier...very good, Christian Bale will undoubtedly
pick up an oscar for his role!

Read a few reviews and sounds like some show.

Went to see the little fockers in the cinema over the holidays. Very much the same as the other two so if you enjoyed them, you'll probably enjoy this too. Some good laughs. Brought our daughter with us, probably not very suitable in hindsight

Great show, scooped it on DVD for a £1 in Tesco's last year.

Had a few pints in the bar that was used in the film, was over in the estates the year after it was made.

Best film that I watched over the Christmas period was No Country for Old Men

Saw it myself as well, its nowhere as near as funny as the first two, its dreadful really don't think I laughed once.
Maybe it was a case of it felt like I seen it all before as it is along the same lines as the other films but I really thought the other two were funny films this though was very boring.
You'll Never Walk Alone.

Big Puff

Anyone ever seen public enemies? is it worth a watch?

Went with mini-me to watch Gulliver's Travels yesterday.  Well, let's just say Jr. had a good laugh.  I was asleep after 5 minutes.  Swift would be turning in his grave.

I wouldn't say it was fantastic RLL but then I don't think the first too were outstanding either. I did laugh a few times at owen Wilson in the film. I usually find him funny anyway

STREET FIGHTER

Seen the new Karate Kid over Christmas.

Pretty good show but found it very long.
