Aha, I did! Jean Reno, I love him, he's great. He played that cleaner in The Assassin SO well - a vicious killer, and he was really sweet, you couldn't help liking him. And also in it the wondrous Gabriel Byrne - he was in something with Keanu Reeves about lawyers - bit far fetched, but he's always so watchable.

Re: Good movies
Ok for those with a) french digital telly, and b) those that can bloody well understand the language. 
Cheers Tweedy, but I'll give it a miss.
Did watch 'Defiance' last night though. About a 'colony' of Jews that set up camp deep in the forests of Belorussia in the second world war. True story and well worth watching if you get the chance. Daniel Craig gives a solid performance. 10/10

Re: Good movies
I'm out in the sticks here so we never get legal copies of films. No one sells them as the pirates are so easily available and no one bothers enforcing any laws that there may be.
I did convert much of my DVD collection to WMV before I moved out.
I'm way out of touch with new films so I have seen very little over the last 18 months.
Having said that I have my anorak ready for when the new star trek film is available.
The downside is that it may never come here as science fiction isn't very popular here.
Anyone know of a download in WMV?

Re: Good movies
That Defiance film took a lot of liberties with the truth Chant. Good film though, but I thought the brother was the better actor in it.
Daniel Craig turned up at the end of a Hungarian holocaust film I have just seen. Fateless. Based on a true story, not so much a film that runs along smoothly, more just snippets of the lead role's memory. Craig turns up as an American soldier. Hell of a shock to be honest lol.

Watched No country for Old Men, All I can say is bloody excellent but the ending left me a little cut short. Going to Watch Max Payne tonight, Dark another Game turned into film like Resident Evil or Tomb Raider most reviews cut it to shreds but I like to form my own opinion.

Re: Good movies
Get VLC, and Watch Xvids or Divx. WMV is really not the way to go if you want to stay up to date with online content.

Re: Good movies
Saw 'American History X' a good few years ago and thought it was brilliant. Violent, but good.
Guy Pearce is of Neighbours fame, and is a really, really good actor. He was good in 'Priscilla Queen of the Desert', and also in 'LA Confidential' - one of my faves!
Well done on your movie credit Gav!
