Title: Films Post by: Bob's Orange on Monday, February 12, 2007, 20:16:09 Watched Napolean Dynamite and I'll sleep when I am dead on Sky Movies over the weekend. ND was humerous and I think I fell asleep during the important bit of the other film.
Anyone seen these films and have any interesting or indeed, dull views? Title: Films Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, February 12, 2007, 20:18:50 Couldn't get interested in Napoleon Dynamite, which surprised me as I usually like that sort of film. Even the cult status hype the film got didn't put me off but I thought it was incredibly dull and too much hard work.

I am not the biggest watcher of films and didn't realise it had a cult status, it was kind of slow but I found it kind of funny without ever being hilarious. Title: Films Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, February 12, 2007, 20:32:04 I watched Croupier last night on Film4. Was different and interesting. Certainly wouldn't have watched it unless it was on the box but I'm glad I did.
Title: Films Post by: Chubbs on Monday, February 12, 2007, 20:37:19 ND is one of the funniest films ever, its not a funny film as in laugh out loud funny it just tickles your insides for ages,
other films i have recently watched are dean mans shoes and the foutain, both highly recomended. Title: Films Post by: sonic youth on Monday, February 12, 2007, 23:16:45 I haven't seen either.
Looking forward to Lynch's new film, Inland Empire, out just before my birthday 8) Title: Films Post by: Chubbs on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 00:20:14 just watched employee of the month, i was bored, and its not as bad as i expected, its not great but worth a pop.
Title: Films Post by: Amir on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 00:52:40 Quote other films i have recently watched are dean mans shoes Paddy Considine is in Hot Fuzz as well, he's a superb actor. A Room For Romeo Brass(another Shane Meadows film) is worth watching for his part alone, and I liked Twenty Four/Seven alot as well(without Considine), which alot of critics panned. But then what the fuck to they know, most of them slated Life Is Beautiful. I'm waiting on Pan's Labrynth and Howl's Moving Castle at the moment. I saw Spirited Away for the first time yesterday and enjoyed that alot. Title: Films Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 00:55:58 I've got Howl's Moving Castle mate, would you like to borrow it?
Fantastic film. Title: Films Post by: Amir on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 01:03:00 Cheers for the offer, but it's coming in the post soon. I bought my sister Spirited Away for Christmas and got to watch it the day after her party :D
How'd the exam on La Haine go? PS Your Deal or No Deal avatar is scaring me. Title: Films Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 01:04:51 You need to see Princess Mononoke, best Miyazaki film by far.
I missed the exam, had a thumping migraine so will sit it in June. (I thought the Dave Mitchell/Noel Edmonds resemblance was uncanny. It's actually just fucking weird) Title: Films Post by: Amir on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 01:13:34 Quote You need to see Princess Mononoke, best Miyazaki film by far. I'll do that then, it was one I looked at and decided not to go with. Make sure you correct everyones pronounciation when they say La Haine, then you can look a complete cunt like me :D I can't help it as it was drilled into my memory by my Belgian housmate at uni. Title: Films Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 01:15:41 errr, how's it pronounced? :D
Title: Films Post by: Chubbs on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 01:30:32 sonic, impecible film taste there.
Title: Films Post by: pumbaa on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 02:25:14 I'm hoping to see Pan's Labyrinth this week, although it depends on whether we get the 12 inches of snow forecast tonight/tomorrow as to what day I go. Will report back.
Title: Films Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 10:39:47 I've been watching a fair few films recently. Although mostly things I've seen before and forgotten about - don't seem to have the attention span for anything too difficult at the moment, especially after a bottle of wine.
Did find Grosse Pointe Blank on my computer which I'd forgotten I had. Ace fun film that. Then watched all of the back to the futures, oh and Orgazmo. Fun all round there. Got a vague memory of trying to watch The Shawshank Redemption but getting bored (again), still haven't made it through that one. Watched Snatch and The lion king last night, fun all round and nothing too serious. Title: Films Post by: STFCBird on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 10:47:30 Lion King is my fav disney film, it's ace :oops:
Title: Films Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 10:52:21 sorry but its not a patch on Lady and the Tramp! :-))(

I cried when Simba's dad died :( Title: Films Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 10:58:48 awww now you've given away the plot - LION KING SPOILER ALERT!! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:
Title: Films Post by: STFCBird on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 11:03:02 :P
Title: Films Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 11:12:14 I think that The Lion King is the only Disney film I like really. Have to admit I don't really go out of my way to watch them. Finding Nemo's not disney is it? That film is ace.
I second what Mr Youth says about Princess Mononoke. Porco Rosso is ace aswell (although not on the same level). Go you flying pig. Title: Films Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 11:15:09 Aladdin > Lion King.
Title: Films Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 11:17:37 Quote from: "Dave Blackcurrant" Aladdin > Lion King. you're wrong. (The Little Mermaid > Aladdin) < Lion King Title: Films Post by: STFCBird on Tuesday, February 13, 2007, 11:42:09 yes ben finding nemo is disney, it is quite good.
