i got reign of fire from my mate last night!

been meaning to watch that since it first hit the cinema - i mean, dragons *and* helicopters in one film!? yes please. and now i finally get to, yay!

what's the best film you've watched recently? and what made it so good?

biggrin
munch:
yeah, but its not "dragons and helicopters", is it...its "a dragon" and "a helicopter"... frown
i was so disappointed with it (and Christian Bales accent!)

best recent film? gotta be "Eternal Sunshine..." - and it was great because of Charlie Kaufmanns awesome script, and Kate Winslets changing hair colour... wink

although "Lost In Translation" takes some beating... biggrin
mechapearlbass:
I am very sorry for not turning up last night, I am feeling rather ashamed of myself for letting my friend down. I hope you had a good night and that you will forgive me.

Best Film? Shaun of the Dead because it made me laugh so hard.

Take care

kiss

boo!

to my friends, sorry that i seem to have dropped off the face of the planet the last few weeks! the way i deal when im going through a rough time is to throw myself obsessively into something when i'm at home, and to get drunk as a skunk when i'm not - so i've been doing just that! playing guitar and bass, beta...

wow

monster

that's a *good* film

brutally powerful, and it's nice to see some interesting stuff being done with narratology for once

go see!

came back to find all the housemates sitting around watching tv (not something common, as we're usually all over the place). so we all sat there, drinking, chatting, rolled a joint, very mellow, very pleasant. great way to end a great...

welp, a good friend of mine got a bunch of smacktards trying to jack her card at a cashpoint with the whole fake-cover-card-slot-with-loop scam. then one cheeky &$#* had the nerve to come ask for his scam-device back, and threatened to put me in hospital. obviously, i'm convinced that i could have taken him (being a guy and therefore having a fragile ego at best,...

i would just like to take this opportunity to offer some of what i believe are known as 'mad pr0pz' to mr will rutter.

dude put on a storming gig at dingwalls tonight, including a total primus-a-like, a live hip-hop-jazz combo, and the world's most terrifying human beatbox. took me 15 minutes to notice there was no drummer or drum machine, and believe me i...

........brraaaaaaaaiiiiiiiinsssss..........

skull skull skull skull skull skull skull skull skull

guess who saw 'Dawn of the Dead' tonight, hehehehehe!

not massively into horror films, but that one was *stonking*. much fun! especially the cocktail-jazz version of 'The Sickness' (my preferred way to listen to Disturbed....). highly recommended - just good visceral film-making, nothing taxing or troubling. perfect saturday night thing.

regular readers will remember the shenanigans last weekend with an old, very close friend....

Pretty good practice last night - started off a touch ropey, but by the end it was pulling together nicely. I have high hopes for this one...

Me dad arrives today - can't wait, it's been a while since I saw him, and he hasn't properly visited me in London yet - hasn't even seen the Whitechapel place since we moved in the year before...
