What are you watching tonight?

[Lord Kangana]

I thought Sweeny Todd was garbage too.

They're never going to top Oliver! as the grimy Victorian musical. Don't know why they keep trying.

Oh well. Why bother making any more films after Ben Hur then?

[Lord Kangana]

Exactly.

Anyway, is anyone watching the bears on BBC2? Its brilliant.

Just watched that. Rather him than me. Great piece of filming.

an unexpected 9hr round trip to Teesside left me with a lot of radio to listen to today...

first 4 hrs - downloaded whole series of Stephen Fry "Fry's English delight" - which was (as indicated) - a delight!

then - several r4 afternoon plays what I had also downloaded - great fun - the miles flew past!

then - the aftermath of Nigel falling off the roof to his death in the Archers...

isn't radio great?

Ta for that, saves me having to listen to the omnibus on Sunday.

At least you didn't mention the gunfight between Will and Ed Grundy.

I was keeping that quiet - but Jack getting gut-shot in the crossfire was a real shock.... (as was Helen giving birth to a two-horned hedgehog)

I'll let you off - the World Service had blabbed already. I bet Nigel was awfully nice about it.

'Oh, Lizzie, I'm frightfully sorry but I've gone and broken my neck. What beastly bad luck!'

[Bruce Rioja]

The Butterfly Effect (This is the only one that I'm unsure about, but hey, £3 quid of my money and an otherwise uninteresting Tuesday evening of my time - what the hell?)

Which is exactly how it's panned out. The Butterfly Effect tries hard to be mind-blowing but really comes up short. Might have gained a bonus point had Amy Smart got her kit off, but hey-ho!

As I said - £3 quid and a Tuesday evening on the sofa. No harm done.

EDIT: Just been having a look at reviews etc. Apparently 'The director's cut', which is what I've just watched has a completely different ending to the general release. The one that I saw has quite a dark and saddening end to it where it looks like the other one ends up a bit meh!

[General Mannerheim]

Just been watching Changeling, was expecting a whimsy period long lost son romance effort. But it's actually hard hitting, sad, emotional and kind of disturbing film. Nothing too graphic thankfully but anything that depicts missing or the hurting of kids really churns my stomach, and the injustice suffered by the protagonist really makes you wanna reach into the screen and grab the bastards!! Ruddy brilliant film. Acting superb too. Quality.

I'm Recording the last half hour or so of a Harlem Globetrotters match


Here is what I've ordered from RFVideo, I went there to get 'It ain't Seinfeld' (for my Seinfeld collection) and saw that it was 40% off so I got these:

(ECW It ain't seinfeld was taped the night the final episode was shown in the USA)

Best of New Jack Vol. 2- ECW's Most Wanted
Best of New Jack Vol. 1
ECW It Ain't Seinfeld 1998

Let's hope they are regionless.

Some good choices there! i rate the bold ones and Peeping Tom is of historical interest.

Rashomon an absolute classic. Might put that on my Love Film list. Paris, Texas has got a fantastic Ry Cooder (I think) sound track and a beautiful haunting story - Wenders' best. IMHO. Enjoy.

Just got back from The King's Speech

excellent - simply marvellous!

Ah I loved Bader Meinhof Complex General, great stuff. Only recently watched the two Mesrine films and the terrorist group in BMC is mentioned in that, made me want to watch it again - class film.

Also, "The Secret In Their Eyes", that Argentinean film I was papping on about on here a while ago that I can't recommend highly enough to anyone came out on DVD today, really really good film

[Gary the Enfield]

I watched 'A question of Sport' last night, which always entertains.

Alistair Campbell (big Burnley fan) was on the show and, as he was introduced it showed a clip of him stood on what I assume was the steps of Burnley Town Hall with a grinning Owen Coyle. Oops.

Jessica Ennis was on too (sigh)

Better yet SKD was one of the Mystery Guests in a fighter plane/ top gun effort.

Great show.
