If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

The 1981 TV version of Wyndham's sci-fi classic The Day of the Triffids. It fascinated and terrified me as a kid.

Just started watching The Wire from front to back. I caught a few episodes when it was first aired over here but never really followed it. I seem to recall it being on after MOTD. Five episodes into the first series and it's got me hooked. Great balance.

Dizzy in HR here has lent me Get Him to the Greek, a film with Russell Brand in it that, she assures me, is "absolutely hilarious". This doesn't bode well on two counts. Firstly, I can't abide the Cockney c*nt, and secondly that Dizzy has lent me stuff in the past on the pretext of it being funny only for me to find it to be anything but. :?

I think this is one of those occasions you can just pretend you watched it!! I'd rather eat my own weight in dog hair!

"Get Him to the Greek" .... so funny we can only wonder why Lenny Henry and Gina Yashere didn't get parts.

Dizzy in HR wants extraditing.

bobo doesn't need to have experienced anything before having an irrefutable position on it - surely you know this?

I suspect you don't either with some things if you are honest!

I certainly don't with a film that has Russell Brand in it and is called "Get Him to the Greek."

I'm afraid I have. It was on the goggle-box not too long ago. It was appalling.

.... yet Willie is right. Some things don't need to be seen to know they're

a). Not my scene
b). Shite

& while these two options aren't necessarily coincident each does it for me.

So long as that's OK with everybody.

I mean, I'd hate not to measure up.

How was the Opera btw ? ... using words normal people might use.

The operas were very good.

A fuller opinion is on the 'fat lady' thread.

I think I'd have a refutable position if I hadn't seen it - but at first sight I am deeply sympathetic to your views and proposed scheme of inaction on this movie...

Saw it the other night and mightily impressed, that's some film, ok some of it went over my head but sort of clung on, going to see it again thought it was fantastic

Did they steal the space folding thing from Dune?

Always thought the lead role Matthew M (would never attempt to spell his surname) was a lightweight and more of a silly romcom kind of guy, how wrong was I, he was brilliant and totally convincing.

And lowering the tone..Anne Hathaway could make an old man very happy :)


Oh and I loved the new Godzilla film too, not great but an interesting take on the nuclear thing and head and shoulders above that dire Broderick film some time ago, still not as good as the Japanese guys in rubber suits though :)
My dog (proper 57) had his anal glands emptied once and yes the smell is something to behold!!

Matt Mcgonaugheehghengehey has had a hell of a renaissance in the last few years. Everything from Killer Joe onwards he's well worth checking out in.
