What film are you planning to watch?

Needs a film thread.

I watched American History X today. Thought it was quite brilliant, Ed Norton is a powerful actor.

That's on my list too.

Rumour has it that Norton used his Hollywood "muscle" to go behind the director's back and completely re-edit the movie to showcase his performance more.

He was subsequently nominated for the Best Actor Oscar for the role...

Well the film was mainly based on his character.

Is 'Kenny' any good. Or is it just sh*t?

The two best films I've seen in 2007 have been "The Lives of Others" and "This is England".

"300" is next on my DVD list. also "last king of scotland".

forced into "run fatboy run" this orange wednesday - though not so sure about that (brit comedies are w@nk)

I'm watching Planet Terror tommorrow.

"300" is next on my DVD list. also "last king of scotland".

I saw 'The last King of Scotland' a couple of weeks back and it's good.Based on a true story obviously, it has quite a similar feel to it as 'Hotel Rwanda'. Forrest Whittaker is excellent, but the guy who plays the young Scottish doctor can be a bit annoying at times with his silly grins.

7.5/10

Want to see Clooney's Michael Clayton and maybe Jamie Fox's Kingdom, and when it's out, Will Smith's I am Legend.

Favourite movies this year so far: Apocalypto, Blood Diamond, Smokin Aces, 300.

Saw Run, Fatboy Run - it's cute. Thought Last King of Sctoland was boring.

The Scottish doctor was probably a fictional character.

It's true to the extent that Idi Amin was indeed a ruthless, blood thirsty, and mentally unstable dictator of Uganda back in the 70's.

You've obviously not seen 'Shaun of the Dead' or 'Hot Fuzz' then.

Went to see 'Atonement' the other day, I thought it was excellent. Best performance yet from Knightley, shame she looked like a skeleton.

3.10 To Yuma, Disturbia and Superbad are on my list.

Aye, to Shaun Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz. Funny as

Watched Shhoter and This is England over the weekend. Both were good.

Good English comedies:

The Life of Brian
The Holy Grail
Hott Fuzz
Shaun of the dead
The Full Monty
The Lady Killers
The Pink Panther movies
Most of Peter Sellers' films
Four Weddings and a funeral had its moments
Withnail and I is supposed to be good



There's loads of good 'uns.

snatch? trainspotting?

Nuns on the Run was OK too (British Comedy)

'Love Actually' was probably the best British mainstream comedy of the last 5 years.

Not really comedies are they? Movies with funny moments in my book.

Trainspotting was an out-and-out comedy . . .

Black comedy perhaps.

I found it far too bitty and, if you didn't know all the stars I imagine it would've been very hard to keep up with.
Good sound track.
I enjoyed a Fish Called Wanda again last night.

Did she enjoy you?
