I kinda agree with the non-connection with the characters but you need to get to the end of Pacific - I thought the last episode was extremely moving.
I've got some old school anime lined up next - Vampire Hunter D and Fist Of The North Star (the original version!)

just finished the second episode, i was almost moved to tears in it. Its so much better than the pacific

new x-chaps fillum.

only black guy getting killed off asap?

that - and the lingering shot on said black fella when the word 'enslaved' or somesuch was mentioned in the token town-hall speech.

And another Philip K Dick adaption, I note.

Like Minority Report, and Paycheck.

Another one of his books was adapted into a successful film, the name of which has completely gone from my head.

Man On Fire is worth watching.

Definitely!

Philip K Dick novel adaptation...........?

Saw Fire in Babylon at Everyman yesterday. Brilliant documentary film exploring how the best ever team of sportsmen (The W.Indies were undefeated in test cricket for a straight 15 years. Fact) came to be against a background of racism. How 4 vicious bowlers came to bring a team of brutish ozzies to tears with a severe thrashing how they went on to make their former colonial masters, the england team, 'grovel' at the oval. And all this to a fab reggae and dub beat. A film not only for cricket fans.

Go see Senna - amazing documentary and seeing the onboard footage of Monaco on the cinema screen is outstanding. Very moving film aswell as being somewhat harrowing - the crashes are seriously sobering.

Worth seeing even if you are not into F1/motorsports as its a very good documentary in its own right.

YouTube - ‪SENNA International Trailer‬‏

+1 to both of these. I like documentaries in general anyway, but the edits and soundtracks on these two really lent an extra element to the pieces. Both were properly involving, even to a non F1/cricket fan like me, and Senna especially made for a contemplative walk home in the rain.

Fuck yes.

Man On Fire is worth watching.

Definitely!

Both versions! There is an 80's version starring Scott Glenn and Joe Pesci which is also worth seeing.

Man on Fire

Senna, Wonderful film/doc..

I went to see the new X-Men movie the other night. Shit is semi-weak, the girls are all young/mid-teens/jail bait and Dr X is weird when he's doing his mind control thing...

Someone needs to sack up and make a Rogue Trooper / Fr1day movie.. now there's a comic character(s) that deserves a Hollywood hit!

Hanna was good... soundtrack fitted amazingly well with the surroundings/what was going on.

Going to see Senna on Weds.

Score to follow.

Watched Senna (2h40m version) which was excellent, Source Code was pretty good and Point Blank was very enjoyable fast paced nonsense.

Finally got around to watching 'To Live and Die In LA' after talking about it months back. I had somehow blanked out the ending in my mind, so it was a shocker watching it again after so long. The shootings are all pretty gruesome. I don't think they could have scenes like that these days.

To Live and Die In LA and Manhunter is a good William Petersen double bill. I thought he was going to have a good movie career but I guess he doesn't mind as CSI has filled his pockets.

Good move.

The Mechanic.

12 minutes in, and I've already stopped watching.

The Mechanic - 90 mins of my life I won't get back...

Hahaha what were you expecting it's a Jason Stratham movie. Just pointless action film, with a vague story. I got dragged to the cinema to watch it, it was fun because of the company as opposed to the actual movie if you get what I mean.
