I watched The Brothers Grimm today. I really enjoyed it though I love fairy tales.

You have to be a fan of Australian humour though. The producers of "Strange Bedfellows" took the US producers to court and sued for plagiarism, as it was released before "Chuck and Larry". Don't know how they got on. For synapse http://www.impactservices.net.au/mov...bedfellows.htm
Personally, I'm getting tired of the Hollywood mode of a/ making seqel #xxxx, b/ transferring comic book characters/cartoons and tv shows to the screen (with over the top special FX), and c/ remaking classic movies from the '50s and '60s over and over again. Obviously they haven't got any imaginitive writers and producers anymore.

Short attention span ! My wife is into period costume dramas. If it doesn't have a lot of noise, a car chase and at least a handful of machine guns then it's probably not for me. Syriana being the exception - it completely lost me.

then Elizabeth the golden age will be great for your wife and hitman should suit you down to the ground unless you want pointless violence in which case watch shrooms

We decided to go to the Arthouse section and got This is England and La Vie en Rose. Both acquired tastes but we both thoroughly enjoyed both very much especially La Vie en Rose. An amazing story about Edith Piaf's life. Today, we will be watching Blood Diamond.
Agree totally about Kenny, very funny. Also enjoyed Death at a Funeral, slap stick fun.
Oh where has the sun gone??? We will soon run out of films to watch. I'm back at work Wesnesday so pretty safe to say the sun will appear then!

The Bourne Ultimatum
Die Hard 4.0
I've got them all on DVD, haven't had a chance to watch the last two. I'm sure they're very good, the boxes look very nice
The Simpsons Movie is like a very funny very long episode of the Simpsons.
