Films

I was stuck in Amsterdam yesterday as my flight was cancelled, so found this dead little old cinema and killed some time with Pirates of the Caribbean and it was quite enjoyable actually - and Penelope Cruz looks luvverly

I watched it yesterday too...in 3d! But you can't kiss with 3d glasses! sucks!

I'm in the mood for something funny after last night, can someone recommend me something please?

some number of bullets?

I can't remember what it was called. It was horrible.

22 Bullets - I saw that a few weeks back, I thought it was ok. No amazing, but very watchable.

you sucked instead of kissing?!

Pretty good South Korean flick http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1588170/

I've been on a bit of an Al Pacino recently.

Serpico and Scarecrow, both great 70s films. Scarecrow was especially good, Gene Hackman was an added bonus, the thinking man's Bill Murray.

saw Hanna last night - really enjoyed it. Nice mix of action and suspense with a little comedy in there and an awesome soundtrack by the Chemical Brothers too. Saoirse Ronan is going to be an actress to watch out for I think…

i was disappointed with Hanna,
i was led to believe it was Leon meets Bourne Identity, what i got was not that.

Maybe I wasn't in a very forgiving mood...

Last night I subjected myself to what has clearly become "The Johnny Depp Show" and whilst the fourth Pirates film was no challenge for his acting capabilities, it was entertaining. Disney must now put this franchise to bed because like Big Brother, after the second it was all a bit predictable.

Geoffrey Rush, Ian MacShane and the lovely Penelope Cruz all contributed and indeed outshone Mr Depp - even the annoying little scouser from Snatch put in a decent performance. However, I really cannot help but think that Mrs Bardem is a far better actress in her native language.

All in all, not the worst way to spend two hours, but I am getting slightly bored of films that don't necessarily warrant being released in 3D - Avatar was something else, but most of the rest have been utter arse-gravy.

They are doing a 5th film and he's getting 65 million for it
(did you see me in the Greenwich scenes?)

I looked like this

wench :)

Love this quote from Depp about his characters

"“Upper-echelon Disney-ites, going, What’s wrong with him? Is he, you know, like some kind of weird simpleton? Is he drunk? By the way, is he gay?… And so I actually told this woman who was the Disney-ite… ‘But didn’t you know that all my characters are gay?’ Which really made her nervous.”"

I love that kind of period get up.

I had purple bruises on my ribs from all the corsetry

That's what they all say...

I thought hammers were your thing?

Tonight I'll mostly be watching Troll Hunter.. mostly

Quite excited about it. I mentioned it a while back and it's hitting the cinema's over here in June. Sadly as with a lot of foreign films a remake is already on the cards...

Here's the trailer again for those that don't remember/didn't see it

Yes Saoirse Ronan was excellent.

i was disappointed with Hanna,
i was led to believe it was Leon meets Bourne Identity, what i got was not that.

Why did you think that? Was it because the poster said something like 'Best since Leon' or 'Bourne'. You have to remember some movie hack made that comment. Then some ad guy picked that comment to stick on the poster!

I really liked the soundtrack too. One of the themes reminded me of the 'Ghost in the Shell' music. Did anyone else get that?

I reckon the collar suits you.

Just watching Cloudy with a chance of meatballs. Watched Fantastic Mr.Fox last night. Was alright, some aspects I didn't like but that always happens when I've read the book before
