pans labyrinth beautiful spanish film, well worth a look.

Mex's film of the week. 8)

Fuck off mex, film of the year.

Be warned if you are of a nervous disposition, it is quite gory in places.

good film.

also, there will be advert breaks so you can nip out and have a piss without missing anything.

Is this going to be a regular thing? Perhaps we should get Ben's drink of the week going as well?

If Ben could only have one drink a week, he'd be dead....drink of the day, or even hour, would be better....

Seriously, everybody watch this film. IMO, it is very good.

That did cross my mind after i posted it  :mrgreen:

i was quite disappointed by it as it was seriously hyped up, but it's still proper good.

ace fillm

Tangent time - anyone seen Atonement or No Country for Old Men yet? Both highly rated by critics and movie goers alike....

is that the one with david bowie??

Subtitles! You'll be reading poetry and listening to jazz next. I think I'll watch Robin Hood: Men in tights.

The one with David Bowie is just called "The Labyrinth".  Ace film though.

I thought that, downloaded that movie (The one with Bowie) last month for my little girl and she thinks that is the dogs. So do I for that matter.

all i remember is being a little freaked out by it as a child

I loved it (apart from the bit where hes got his tight white leggins on)  :mrgreen:

thos tight white leggings are the only thing i really remember about the film itself  :?  im a bit worried by that

I can only remember the dwarf dude pissing in the pond

I think that Bowie is God enough to be allowed to wear whatever he wants!!!!

(They where a little tight though)

His name was Boggint's, and he was pissing into the bog of eternal stench.

My daughter being 3 years old insists on watching the same movie over and over and over, therefore I could tell you most of the whole fucking script.

Although clever daddy has also downloaded kiddy movie's such as shrek 1,2 and 3, the barn yard and so on, which are funny innit.

The bog of eternal stench? Oxford perhaps?

Ace film, scared the shit out of me when I was younger.

Was he King of the Fairies?  I can't remember!

i've never seen labyrinth

Worth a download for a Sunday afternoon

Is it possible for me to Email the file to ya (About 700 MB)?

He was king of the goblins, it look's a bit like muppet show at time's cos' the 'fantasy' creature's were wll done by Jim Henson.

Atonement was very good, the pace is a little slow in parts, but still excellent. Well worth the oscar buzz imo.

Not seen NCFOM yet, hope to get around to it soon, it's been getting plenty of hype. Watched Golden Compass tonight and they've made a right pigs ear of it :(

Pans is ace, watched it a few months back.

Pan's Labyrinth was well worth the watch. I enjoyed it.

devils backbone is maybe a smidge better than pans i thought. either way del toro is ace

some of the more educated forum members did not need the subtitles.

He looks like Tina Turner there! :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:


Pans Labyrinth is ace :mrgreen:

I brought that on dvd put it realised it was on some forgien laugune and binned it.

God knows you struggle enough with English.

Sky plused it on the strengh of the good reviews you lot gave it a while back.It better be good :wink:

I did, but then i watched it with hebrew subtitles.

I really enjoyed it, found it hard to multi task cos of the subtitles though!
Was very sad i thought.

I've had it for ages but not watched it because subtitles and drink don't mix very well. Maybe I'll watch it today.

never multi-task during a good film. this is an important lesson all must learn

Even in Lust Garden or Clockwork Orgy?

are you sure there's an 'L' in 'Clockwork'?

There is oddly enough. They missed a trick there.

maybe the sequel will be Cockwork Orange. lots of gingers shagging.

hope no-one was eating their tea.

Watched Pans Labyrinth last night, still had it in the Sky+ from when Mex originally recommended it. My missus didn't like it but I thought it was superb. She obviously doesn't appreciate good cinema when she sees it (i.e. she thinks The Devil Wears Prada was the best film ever made).

I watched Bad santa last night under reccomendation from this forum.

And I was not dissappointed. I have recently also watched rise of the foot soldier which is violence aceness and Free Jimmy which is also aceness.

Everyone is going on about that......

one of my favourite films is on this week, sky+ it you cunts!

blood simple, thurs 10th jan, 10:35pm, sky movies indie (310)

anyone seen "half nelson" (with ryan gosling)?

keep on meaning to watch it but never get around to it.

might have to join that love film thing.

Just rented it from Blockbuster, should be giving it a watch sometime this week.

Let me know what it's like please mate.

Anyone catch Rain Man last night on Ch4.

Heard great things about it, so thought i'd watch it, not a great as i hoped, still an ace film, and dustin hofmans performance is phenomenal.

I can tell you know: It has violence and aceness and gangsters and aceness and football hooligans and aceness

Oh, and a very good plot and acting.

WATCH IT!!

Is that about freeing a scottish whale from loch lomond or something.....

It's actually about a bunch of animal rights freaks, the Lappish Maffia, a bunch of stoneheads and a Junkie Elephant.

I wouldn't have got the last bit from the title.... :oops:

Robocop was on sky one last nite.  8)

Just finished watching "The Ten", absolutely fucking bizarre movie but funny with it. I would recommend but some might hate it, but then the rest will love it.

FAO Deano the fence fucker

I watched Rise of the Foot Soldier last night. I give it 7 out of 10.

Good cast, mediocre acting, plenty of footie violence, drugs, guns, knives & blood. The storyline let it down a bit for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a good solid storyline and the plot makes sense - but I just don't get why it was based on Carl as the main character.

Because it was a true story about Carl Sam.

I know it was a true story, but what the fuck did the ending have to do with him? Yeah I know it was his mates, but really why go through a whole film based on him yet do an ending based on 3 other characters?

speaking of films, my mate burned me some and there are some corkers to check out.

Station Agent
Eagle Vs Shark
Population 634 (?)
Room 1408

to name a few.

eagle v shark is fucking hilarious, saw it at cinema last year top stuff.

I have a book on Essex gangsters and the plot of this film is real. Its well fucked up reading in to it. All motivated by greed. Apparently Carlton Leach is out of the essex underworld now and trying to live a normal life. Married a stripper too.

I watched this on Sunday, 8/10.

Cheers mate

wow, glad im not the only one then, soapy tit wank

it reminded me abit of napolean dynamite, the action and humour side of it. i loved it.

You probably havnen't watched it all the way through though have you  :wink:

i watched blue velvet last night

ace.

Its not about a lap dancing club in Newcastle is it???

I watched Mr Woodcock last night.

not ace.

no it isn't you fucking heathen
