I like all the original series films, apart from 5 of course, which was completely daft.

Heard good things about Grizzly Man, haven't seen it though.

Yeah, 5 is shi%3 except for the moments between Kirk, Bones and Spock which I think are just lovely.

Oh, watch Grizzly Man. Brilliance.

I watched Star Trek (The one from last year) I hate Star Trek but I loved the film, very entertaining.

I also watched Repo: The Genetic Opera again. It's a mess of a film but it's a guilty pleasure of mine.

I watched Watchmen yesterday, great film. I'm surprised it got such a mixed critical reaction.

Fired Up!


Was a jokes movie so so fun, advise anyone to watch it.

Its made me and my friends bring back the high 5 too funnily.

Had us laughing start to finish, although a bit uncultured etc, if you just want a laugh with no great story line this is a great movie.

I think it's because the graphic novel is so revered - some will have expected different things from the film adaptation :\

but it is amazing...but then that's from someone who hasn't read the book.

I was reading about it on Wikipedia the comic book ending sounded awful.

Spoiler:

Instead of Framing Dr Manhattan, Ozymandias fakes an Alien Invasion that destroys New York.....so Yeah I think I liked the film's ending more.

Saw Breathless at the cinema... this is about the millionth time I've seen it, but it's such a great movie. Comedy, romance, guns, a fugitive on the run... Breathless has it all.

Jean Seberg looks incredible too.

Tropic Thunder. I thought at the start I was really going to dislike it but ended up thinking it was alright. Robert Downey Jr is very good, if a little incomprehensible at times. He stays in character and does the voice for the DVD commentary which is very funny; it is maybe even better than the film itself.

He does a commentary while staying in character? Wow, I didn't know that.

The Spinal Tap one is classic too, as well as the bonus footage that was never used in the flick, which is about another hour and a halfs worth. Great stuff.

Was in a bit of a sci-fi mood over the last week so decided to throw on a few flicks that I haven't seen in years.

First off was Outland - Boy, has the one aged badly with Sean Connery - dependable as usual - in a thriller that basically plays out like High Noon in space, along with plot holes the size of Jupiter. Doesn't hold up well as a story, but a fairly diverting watch.

Silent Running - This is retro, trippy nonsense, and all the better for it. It's quirky and offbeat, with a nice turn by Bruce Dern in the lead, but I have no idea how such a thread bare storyline was ever produced as a feature length picture. Think it would play out better if I was on the waccy tobaccy while watching it.

hills have eyes the orignal.

It was a shame Ive seen all the sequels and the remake and sequel without seeing this film. I thoguht it was okay, but preditcable becuase I knew what was going to happen, but i fully enjoyed it, and some different scenes than the remake so. Overall I found the acting to ruin the movie, god awful.

Oh, and I watched Capricorn One, which is very entertaining conspiracy thriller that would be perfect for a remake. Strange that it hasn't been already done.
