Sunshine Cleaning. I thought it was excellent!

Great film, Emily Blunt = my #1 film crush at the moment.

I just finished watching "The Adjustment Bureau". It was really good, and now, Emily Blunt is my fav too!!

I just watched Beowulf on DVD. For some reason I've been reluctant to watch it, but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by it. And I didn't know that Neil Gaiman co-wrote the screenplay.

I like it too, also have the comic adaptation of the film which Gaiman co-wrote.

Have you seen the live action one with Gerard Butler? It came out around the same time, very different but also good.


On another note, I finally watched The Woman in Black today. Great atmosphere, nice to see a well done, non-gory British horror.

Gerard Butler who was the Phantom in the 2004 adaption of The Phantom of the Opera was Beowulf

Ordered pizza yesterday and had a family movie night. Watched Zookeeper, and I have to admit it got us all laughing.

The Dark Knight and Hellboy 2

Saw those two + The Mummy 3 back-to-back-to-back at the cinema in 2008, what a triple bill! The two greats you mentioned and an okay one.

I got them at a car boot sale along with a double DVD of Transformers - only to find that Transformers is Region 1. It serves me right for not checking. :doh:

If anyone wants a Region 1 version of Transformers, PM me and I'll send it to you.

I assume that's a format issue and it won't play for you?

 

[Tonyblack]

Yes, we're Region 2 here in Europe. To be honest, from what I've seen of Transformers, I'm not that interested in watching it. But it was a 'buy 2 get 1 free deal and I didn't see anything else I was remotely interested in.

I don't have a DVD player, Dug. I play DVDs on my computer.

I've been on a courtroom drama kick recently after buying three excellent DVDs: Anatomy on a Murder, Inherit the Wind and Judgement at Nuremberg.

I watched Inherit the Wind last night - it really is an incredible movie based on the so called Scopes Monkey Trial, which was a landmark case about the teaching of Evolution in American schools. It's well worth checking out.

Been watching a new (US) show called Comic Book Men, based around Kevin Smith's comic book shop called Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. Flavour's kinda like Top Gear for comic geeks.

 

[Catch-up]

Saw the friend who'd been recommending Big Bang Theory, told her how much we're enjoying it and that I'm kind of in love with Leonard. She said, "You married Leonard!"
