Kill List is on Film4 this week............ Thursday I think.
Curious film with a very odd /dramatic ending. Would recommend a look at it. Have selfish reasons for recommending it as I don't know anyone else who has seen it and wonder how others feel about it.

I thought it was pretty good, creepy feeling to it.

Good show alright. Particularly enjoyed the ending when the smug champion on  the tv show gets his posterior handed to him by Harrelson's ex. "Foodstuffs beginning with Q", Jeopardy the show?????

Anyone signed up for Lovefilm instant or any of the other streaming type packages?

just wanting to see if they are worthwhile or any feedback on them.

I use LoveFilm and think its great. The package I have is unlimited DVD's including blu-rays, (max 1 at a time) and unlimited streaming for £7.99 per month. I use the streaming through the PS3 and the quality is superb. Only knock back would be the selection. Even though there is a lot on it, not alot of it is recent. You can see what the selection is like online before signing up. Haven't tried NetFlix but when looked at the selection it wasn't that great at the time.

Was thinking of getting it as a gift, as in a years subscription for someone to it, can this be done?

Can certainly be done with Netflix.

Main Street

The Lives of Others   on RTE 2 tonight  11.50pm

Which reminds me of - 

Why do ex-Stasi officers make the best Berlin taxi drivers? Because you only need to tell them your name and they'll already know where you live!

The lives of others is quality.

No doubt its be mentioned before here, but just watched Oldboy there, korean movie. Jaysus, some movie..Shakespearean esque!

Anyone seen 7 Psycopaths yet? I'm a big fan of McDonagh's and really looking forward to seeing it.

Yip. Was a let down but i know others who liked it. Not in the same league as In Bruges.

Pretty much nails most reviews I have seen.

Saw it last Sunday. Enjoyed "In Bruges", but this was just a load of self-indulgent crap - the 1st 30 mins or so were v promising, then it all nosedived till the end.

My last 2 films have been "Gambit" & "7 Psychopaths" & a right pair of turkeys they were.

Resolution for 2013 - pick a good film to see!
