Just back from Ep 3.

Wow. What a film. It manages to pull almost all the threads of the story together. Just a few dodgy moments but overall a very enjoyable film.

House of the Flying Daggers

Biggest pile of sh**e I've seen in a loooooooooooooooong time.....

Ocean's Twelve

Only managed not to be the biggest pile of sh**e I've seen in a long time because of House of the Flying Daggers

Star Wars, Episode I - The Phantom Menace


Not bad. Better than I remembered (apart from Jar Jar).

Pity Darth Maul wasn't used more.


Star Wars, Episode II - Attack of the Clones

Pretty good. Worth seeing just for the Yoda/Dooku fight, & the scene when the clone troopers first see some action.


Star Wars, Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

OMFG! I wasn't expecting much, but I actually really enjoyed this (mostly).

The story, although not great, was better than that of EpII (which was better than that of EpI).

Acting & script... not too hot, but better than the first two, & not really any worse than in the original trilogy.

Action, special effects, battles, lightsaber duels, etc.... Wicked :D :D :D

Ian McDiarmid was especially great as Palpatine.

I've been on an eastwood trip of late, so the last thing i watched was Heartbreak Ridge.

Classic Eastwood, and some FANTASTIC snappy dialogue, especially the opening scenese in jail.

Alien Nation.

Not too bad.

I'm glad they went with different actors in the TV series tho.

6/10

The Manchurian Candidate.

Pretty good, a little lazy in places but very watchable none the less.

Star War, Episode IV - A New Hope

Not the best of the saga, but still the original & still a classic :D

The original one, with Sinatra, or the remake, with Denzel Washington?


(both are good IMO)

Sin City

(free preview screening on Weds courtesy of an offer in the Grauniad :) )


http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0401792/


Brilliant adaptation of Frank Miller's "Sin City" comics, directed by Miller & Robert Rodriguez. Good story, looks amazing, & the cast is great.

Definitely worth watching :tu:

Really want to see this one, can't wait.

Never read the comics - would like to though. Anyone know if they're any good?

I'm going to see that tomorrow. I'm a newbie to the story, but the trailers look good.

I saw Millions yesterday. It's okay, quirkie enough at the start to keep you watching.

Also saw Revenge of the Sith again :)

They're very good :)


Miller is great. A couple of his other graphic novels which are also worth reading are "Batman: Year One" & "Batman: Dark Knight Returns".
