RE: Have you ever walked out of a film?

Almost walked out of Land of the Dead. Didn`t want to see it in the cinema, but I needed something to keep me busy between the end of Night Watch and the start of A History of Violence Yup, I spent a long time in the cinema that day

Oh yeah, I saw Serenity in the evening too :)

RE: What are the best film dvds without a Cinema release?

Saw Mean Creek in the cinema last year (along the same time as Sin City and The Jacket). One of my favourite movies of last year.

How about The Boondock Saints?

RE: Anyone seen Bittersweet Life?

Saw it at Frightfest last year.

I found it too be a highly entertaining movie with nice comic moments and action sequences, which reminded me of Hong Kong movies in the 80s.

Unfortunately, I didn`t find it as gripping or satisfying as Kim Ji Woon`s earlier `A Tale of Two Sisters` or the revenge-themed `Oldboy`, mainly due to the muddled plot and conclusion.

Still worth watching imo.

Went for Eternal Sunshine SE, Fear and Loathing (my sig) and Oldboy with their 12% `sorry` discount.

RE: LoveFilm - Utterly Abysmal - Decent DVD Rental Company Reccomendations

I`ve subscribed to Lovefilm, Screenselect, and Blockbuster in the past.

Screenselect was the best by a mile! Quick turnaround and good customer service imo.

RE: The worst film I have ever seen.

Worst film for me this year has been Land of the Dead - it was the first time I had ever taken my eyes away from the screen during a movie in the cinema due to boredom. I`m just glad I didn`t pay for the ticket.

Jacob`s Ladder

If you love this movie (like I do), try Lost Highway. Much more bizarre than MD :)

RE: Composer Poll

Voted for James Newton Howard for all of his great scores especially his collaborations with director M. Night Shyamalan. Amazing stuff.

RE: Your most recent DVD purchase/What did you just buy? Thread

Received Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me today after the DVD release date was pushed back 2 weeks.

Especially good news as I`ve just finished watching the whole series (1 & 2) and it is now my fave TV show of all time :)

I remember watching the last episode when it was on telly and I was only 10 years old. Still gives me chills 15 years later :o
