RE:

ITV are fricking terrible when it comes to movies , they are generally shown in pan and scan from old transfers , cut to shreds , many ad breaks and scenes cut for timeslot reasons.

But then if you want a good laugh , try and find thier version of the ultra violent `Robocop` which was shown cut at a evening slot a few years ago , its better than any comedy movie released recently.They also showed Beverly Hills Cop last night at 6.00pm , i missed it but bet it was a good laugh , if the dubbing in robocop was anything to go by.

RE: Kevin Smith Films

Mine is the criminally underated Mallrats , Jason Lee`s performance is oscar worthy and the line ` the guy looks like a date rapist ` directed towards Ben Afflecks charicter is one of the best lines in any of smith`s movies.

Clerks is my second best then chasing amy , didnt like Jay and Silent Bob Stike much at all , i think its much smarter to limit Jay and Silent Bob to cameo`s where they truely shine , instead of a whole film .

RE: Casino (10th Anniversary Edition)...

After picking casino up as part of the universal gangster box set with Carlitos way and Scarface earlier this year , i still cant make up my mind about it . I loved many scenes , it has fantastic acting and direction but theres iffy something about it . I think its ultimatly that it feels too much like its trying to reach the untouchable `goodfellas` . There are also certain scenes which felt like they were being shocking for the point of being shocking , whereas violent and brutal scenes in other scorsese films felt like they were justified.

maybe its just me , as many people love this film , i think ill have to give it a second watching as recently many films which i didnt really like on first viewing improved hugely on second.

RE: Futurama, best season??

After recently buying all the box sets , i would have to say i found series 3 to be the best overall , the worst series being 2 , cant explain why , theres just something iffy about 2 .

RE: The Godfather and other gangster films.

I agree with Handsome.b.wonderful , when i first saw Millers crossing i found it slowmoving and hard to follow , 2nd time it was excellent,and from then on,every time ive watched it , it gets better and better.

I find this with all of the Coen`s movies though , On first viewing they seem average , but they get better with each viewing, whereas most films i lose intrest with on multiple viewings .

RE: Off to see Dawn tomorrow evening - I am SO excited....!

Go see Shaun of the dead instead , its scarier , gorier and frickin funnier .

RE: SHAUN OF THE DEAD

I also just saw it and it was brilliant , very very funny , and I always love to see a good british film , its quite a rare thing.

RE: I hate Dirty Dancing!!!! What`s your most hated film????

Pearl Harbor , The lord of the rings trilogy and i too saw the Godfather for the first time the other night on tv and i also thought it was extremly dull and over rated , there are far better 1930`s USA gangster films such as Millers Crossing.

RE: BBC best british sitcom

I recon that Richard Curtis was sitting at home with his phone on automatic redial , hoping that if the vicar of dibley was voted first , he might get another romatic comedy commissioned

``I love this job more than i love taffy , and im a man who enjoys his taffy``

BBC best british sitcom

How the hell did the vicar of dibley beat two of the funniest programs ever made (Fawlty towers & Dads Army) :o

The program is s***e and everybody knows that father ted should have been in its place in the top ten.

You can add Jackass the movie and any adam sandler movie to that list.

Python special edition

does anyone know where the special edition of `Monty pythons the meaning of life` has gone ? It was supposed to be released on the 16th of febuary but it just dissapeared and no websites seem to list it as a upcoming release.

Also i found it funny that they quickly re-released the monty pythons the movies box set which features the barebones meaning of life , to see if they could sell anymore before the people notice a special edition .Maybe this isnt the reason why they re-released the box set , but i think it probobly was because companies are always trying to trick customers like that.

RE: New Family Guy Collection...Not Happy!

I know how you feel Jamie , im a huge family guy fan and this p***ed me off so much that i also sent fox an e-mail a few days ago suggesting an release of the extras disk for people who bought the seperate seasons.

Although i guess that fox is a scheming money grabbing company , so they wont want to do this because then no-one would buy the box set because most fans already own the seperate seasons and would therefore just buy the extras disk.

RE: Mafia on the PS2... any good?

On the PC Mafia is a fantastic game , one of the best , but NEVER under any circumstances buy the ps2 version.The graphics are awful , its like a ps1 game and it has a lot of the pc version cut from it. Trust me dont buy it , i cant wait to take it to trade in at game , its annoying me just sitting on my shelf.

RE: Favourite game 2003

My favorate game of the year is definatly Manhunt , which has a whole lot more to it then just some nice gore.Theres no other game that actually makes you tense and freaked while playing it , except from sven goran eriksons world cup challenge.

RE: Univited (leslie Grantham)

My god , they sell that ?

RE: Who`s bought a film for the packaging....?

I bought Robocop trilogy just for the first film and the classy packaging , but the two sequels were good coasters and great frisbees . I also got the book of the dead , instead of the cheaper basic evil dead dvd , cause it looked good.

RE: Could there be a new Jaws dvd on the way ?

A group commentry with some of the cast and crew would be nice , although mr spielberg never gets envolved with that sort of thing.

but lets just hope to god that they dont do somthing like add a CGI shark and turn it into a ultra remastered deluxe 4 hr version or something.

RE: Best film of the year!?!

I really enjoyed Matrix revolutions , but i seem to be the only person who did enjoy it without slagging it off or comparing it to the brilliant original . I also really enjoyed kill bill and Jackass the movie which really made me laugh my head off .

RE: Manhunt, anyone played this yet?

Its really good , its tense , scary and really violent (lets face it , thats why people want it)
and its got a good story too .

Could there be a new Jaws dvd on the way ?

Found this on the recently classified page of the BBFC , a jaws dvd menu :o , could this just be a re-release of the current dvd , or a special special ultra collectors edition re-release or somthing dumb like that.

The Meaning of life SE

Does anyone know when the 2 disk special edition of `Monty pythons the meaning of life`
is coming out in the UK .Looks like a great dvd , and is already out in the US damn it .

RE: EMPIRE Magazine - Is it the best?

WWW.MRQE.COM is a very good site for movie reviews as it is pretty much a film review search engine

RE: So, is this the last we`ll see of the Matrix? (may contain spoilers!)

I just got back from seeing this , and i really enjoyed it . It was much less confusing than reloaded and the action scenes were very well done especially the attack on zion.

I dont get why people keep saying this is a really bad film , it is much better than reloaded although nowhere near the original. It was also much less philisophical than the slow moving second film.

RE: matrix question (got a little confused)

Was it just me or did anyone else get confused while watching this , i mean i could follow matrix 1 , but this completly confused me.I was ok up to the bit in the restarunt with the french bloke , but when it got to the corridor with the key master and the architetct i was lost

So i seriously need to re-watch this , cause i also really enjoyed the action sequencies apart from the cgi which always looks fake (with some exeptions) :o
