run arnold run a biopic of arnold schwarzanegger over 30 years as he competes firstly for the mr universe title then for the california governer election 4/10 worth seeing for the absolute shocking acting by the guy who plays him in later life it really needs to be seen
SO do you mean it is actually an interesting character portrayal he does? or does he actually act like he is Arnie very well? (i.e. a shit actor)

The assasanation of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford - 9/10
Fantastic. Best film I have seen this year by a long way.
The last hour of the film is scarily good! Top performances by Brad Pitt and Casey Afflek as well. The first hour or so can seem a little long which is only criticism.
Watch this movie!!!
I have it, but haven't watched it yet. Baseball season has started so i have even less time now.

split the wheetabix in half, put some honey on it, and use greek yoghurt next time.
Or with just a plain banana and semi-skimmed milk.
The sugar will eventually catch up with you...
I was putting "empty" chemical bottles out to be taken away, and thought i better check that the glacial acetic acid was cleaned (a moron Postdoc was supposed to clean it). To do this i thought take a quick sniff - sure enough i hadn't been cleaned out. I may get a sense of smell back later this week

No Country for Old Men.
5/10.
What a fucking dissapointment it turned out to be. It wasn't doing badly (certainly not worth the oscar, especially for Bardem whose performance was average at best). Worst thing for me -
They built the film up nicely enough to the "scene" at the "airport". Then suddenly it is over, the guy is dead and that is it. They didn't show any of it..... bollocks.

With Atlanta giving up this year, i haven't followed it really. Penguins are looking very good for the Stanley cup this year however. They put everything they could into getting Hossa (who should be back fit soon) which gives them 3 of the top scoring offenseman in the game (Hossa, Malkin and Crosby).

Fucking idiots calling up for Drs - wasting precious minutes of my time (i.e. PnB time).
This guy calls up asking for Dr Williams (made up), i say sorry you have the wrong number, this is a research lab. He goes oh, i dialed the number given to me for him, but it just rings and rings, can you transfer me to him - no that is not possible, we don't have that ability. He goes But i need medicine, and approval from Dr Williams - again sorry, i can't help you. He then asks if i can transfer him to the reception/main desk whatever - sorry we don't have the ability to transfer anyone anywhere. He asks if i can find someone to do that. For the third time i tell him we don't have the ability to transfer, and even go on to tell him that we are a totally seperate system to the hospital. He then pipes up so you can't help me then. If i wasn't as polite as i am i would have replied no shit sherlock or something similar.
What happened to a simple oh sorry, thanks anyway when you dial the wrong number.
(if i was in Greenock i'd guess he was just after a fix of some sort anyway
)As an update, there was a message from the same guy on the phone today - fucking idiot.

Cheer up - that's only about £40 in real money.
Yeah but it is nearly a whole months wages
(atleast the amount i get after taxes, car loan repayment, health insurance, retirement funds etc etc)To be fair though, that is the first time i have needed to put anything into the car in terms of the yearly service i give it. It is just pissy that everything needed done at once
(as well as 4 new tires)0 -
Car went in for the yearly service today.......
$1100

I didn't think the daughter bought the blank bullets deliberately; I thought she bought them in error. I seem to recall the shopkeeper sort of mocking her.
It's afterwards she realises she bought blanks.
I remember having the same debate with my dad and brother so I suppose it's open to interpretation
Either way, it wasn't magic disappearing bullets. Or the magic cloak
That is what i thought.
I don't even think she realised that they were blanks at all
. I agree that it was one of the best moments in cinema in a long time - genius from the scriptwriter/director/whoever had the idea.

Tobin Bell is going to make Stalked next year (a Lovecraft film), and only had a 5 film deal, so that should be the last one.
The problem is, if it continues to make money, they may well continue to make more. I think 3 would have been a nice ending, but i can see a need to tie up the loose ends i described before in a 5th film.

Saw III was something I looked forward to. Wish I hadn't watched it now as it lost the story and went for the gross-out factor.Then at the end, sets it's self up for.......
Wouldn't bother going any further than I & II.
Edited for score: 2/10
No it didn't
I watched Saw IV last weekend. 7/10 - lost points for things being way way too obvious, and also didn't give any explanation for
why the cop was the one that was doing everything
. I assume that is going to be the main storyline for the 5th (and hopefully final) film in the series.

I loved what there has been on so far. It has been stopped for now, but hopefully will be back on around summer time, with new episodes. One of the best new comedies in the US, although for some reason a lot of people trashed it

iam a arsehole. Thought i lost my bank card so went and blocked it, ive just went and found it in my wallet underneath my driving licence. So now have to wait till i get a new card to get money out
Can't you go into the branch to do it? (although that does mean it has to be open)

I have man flu
Was feeling shitty at work yesterday, and had a fever when i was going home. Every 30mins through the night i woke up, was freezing cold so wrapped up, 30mins later i was burning up again. This morning i woke up and it felt like i had a hangover
Thankfully the medicine i took is doing fine for my sore head/sickly feeling but i still have a really bad cough.Worst thing of all, food that normally tastes really good is tasteless

I fully intend turning this into a profit (via compensation) before the episode is laid to rest.
I doubt you will get compensation from this, as there will be no charge to you. An apology will be all youd get i would guess. Did you ask if you could make a 2nd transaction to get the money you wanted? and then have the 50quid refunded to you?

Well until someone creates an Index I'll just have to carry on being annoying cos I'm too busy to read every nook and cranny on this site
Thank You
It should be easy enough to find, and now that you have been pointed to the correct place, even easier. A hint is - it is one of the biggest threads on the forum (and i know you will be upset since it isn't about Hutton, but live with it)

Double it's money in the States on opening weekend - usually a sign of either a great film, or extreme over-hype... can't say it was over-hyped so that at least is a good sign
It was all very well marketed and hyped up. From over a year ago, it started with just a blank screen, and cloverfield - coming soon. That got everyone thinking what the f**k it was (well by everyone, atleast me). Then they had small snippets of something happening. They never really went into what the film was about at all. However it would have got lots of peoples interest in the film, and that is why it made so much. Not really over-hype but well publicised.

After making 150% of its costs in its American opening weekend they have announced a sequel to be made next year.
You see thats where they are being very fucking stupid. IT made a hell of a lot due to the marketing campaign- which was obviously very well done. Now everyone knows it is shite, and the sequel will lose them money (like BW2 probably did). Better to end it and enjoy the money.

Was that edit to remove Howard Johnson or another Johnson name as signature?

Basically its Godzilla meets blair witch project, and its as bad as it sounds.
1 out of 10
Exactly what i thought watching the trailers. Thats why i won't be paying to see it.

Oops nearly forgot. Watched the Kingdom on Sunday. Pretty good movie, plenty of action and a great storyline (for a movie). The ending also summed up the reason this is never going to stop. Too many stubborn fuckers on all sides
8/10.

Transformers - 8.5/10
Quality film that looked awesome on my 42" LCD TV!!! And megan fox is smokin hot!!!!
My brother in law has a projecter/screen which we watched it on xmas day
beats your 42" LCD TV. He also has a $10,000 speakers system Took one of the kids to see The Golden Compass on Saturday.On the plus side, it was visually stunning.
On the minus side it was a confusing story if you'd not read the book.
5/10
I think that is going to be the problem with most people who see it. I enjoyed reading the books, but i couldn't think how the film would work. If you haven't read the book, i don't think you will enjoy it.

I am Legend - 8/10
Good film but let down by the scene showing Big Willy topless doing pull ups. This moved the Wife more than any of the scary moments and she's now insisting that I go to the gym 5 days a week to get the same physique. She wasn't too happy when I insisted that she go to the plastic surgeon to look like Kelly Brook!

The Big Bang Theory

Me too. It is good clean fun (maybe that is the problem, too clean for people) - and it makes me laugh, as well as relate to the characters.
