I once spent a boring Saturday afternoon on the couch watching Lethal Wepon 1, 2 and 3 in a row - it was the best day of my life, above my wedding day and the day I was born.

Good movie for its day. Got it on DVD. I question whether the bombers would scatter like that. The fighters would pick them off 1 by 1. Better to stick to a tight formation, defensively more sound.

Watch out for 127 hours. The story of Aron Ralston's fight for survival in Blue John Canyon.
I read the book " Between a rock and a hard place".
I also remember seeing an interview he did with Tom Brokaw.
I see this is on youtube.

Agree! aA good sequal and fitting to the original. I know not everyones cup of tea but I liked the concepts of Tron and it's follow up. Brilliant how they made Jeff bridges young again. and good to see Brice B in it as well.
 
The blonde and the brunette were worth the entrance fee alone!

In the last week I  have watched Max and Mary (very good) and Buried (good).  Recently I have also enjoyed the pleasures of Scott Pilgrim vs the World, Dr Strangelove (or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb), Young Frankenstein and Iron Man 2 (which was actually pretty average).

Still trying to get round to watching Milk (been on my Sky+ box for about 6 months now).
 
edit: oh, for some strange reason I want to see the kings speech - not normally my kind of film (doesn't have Leslie Nelsen or any nob gags in it) but I am strangely drawn.

Just watched "Deathproof" and it was quite good. Some scenes in the car chase looked like they were filmed in NZ especially with some of the road signs, but in the credits it said it was filmed in Texas. Unless Quentin put them in there deliberately for Zoe.

I don't recommend watching Sweeney Todd (though it's great) followed  by Sleepy Hollow late at night.

I watched the Limits of Control Last night:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Limits_of_Control

Not sure if i'd recommend it 100%, but it is very slcik, stylish and clever- Bill Murray makes a cameo at the end and there is a very nice lady's bottom in it, so thats nice.

Jim Jarmusch is a smart director, I liked Dead Man and Ghost Dog- this is similiar to Ghost Dog in some ways

A mate gave me a 10 disc box set of the Star Trek movies. I have never been a Star Trek fan but I did enjoy the new movie that came out a few years ago, anyway, I watched The Wrath Of Khan which featured a very young and SKINNY Kirstie Alley. Apparently it was her first film role. Gooner 4 Life2011-01-15 19:23:01

Except seeing the main actors backside.  Sam Rockwell I believe is the fellow.  One of the more revolting backsides I've seen.  Horrible.

He's in Conviction which is a good watch.

Speaking of backsides and good movies for their time, I would recommend Deliverance. Made in 1970/71 I think but not dated in anyway and great story. Young Burt Reynolds and Jon Voight.

I realize it's been mentioned but Harry Brown.  Just watched it with my brother.  Michael Caine was immense.  Quality movie.  Complete lack of respect in those kids makes you want to go down and sort them out but Michael Caine does it for you.  Quality.

Got round to seeing Gomorrah, was pretty good. As everyone writes gritty as hell and a good film on five different stories and character development. Kind of like if Crash was a doco on a Napoli mafia.
Heaven knows I'm miserable now

I haven't seen it. Refuse to. But my mates did and gave me a full run down. I honestly question how any film could be worse than this. Rape - and gay rape and that! incest, new-born porn. F**king filth. Serbia would be very disappointed that the title associates this film with the entire country. Btw, my friends said it was actually well done and had a plot.
