      Have "acquired" Seven Pounds via the 'net - Not sure what to expect, good call on the other films;)

    • Been watching the new season of My Name is Earl. Much better than the last one that had very typical sitcom plot lines and was really irritating because of it.

      Just finished Sopranos series 5, now waiting on 6. Ace of course.

      Need to pick out a film to watch tomorrow night as a young lady is coming over... not sure what to go for, but I'm hoping she'll like to watch Zombie Flesh Eaters... but probably not.

      Yeah the new series of My Name Is Earl is much improved on the last one - thought the Earl in a coma bit in the last series was stretched out far too much.

      Zombie Flesh Eaters - classic, might not be to every young lady's taste tho.

      scientific research apparently shows that two people watching a frightening film will find each other more attractive than they will if they watch a comedy or action film.

      too much gore and she'll just vomit in your lap though. it's a fine line. :D

      Plus I'm not sure about any woman who finds watching 'Teeth' a turn on. :argh:

    • I started to watch The Recruit the other night on tv, but had to go to work so i've sky plus'ed it for later.

      I saw Come Dine With Me the other day, it featured people from sheffield, was pretty funny, one was a dwarf who thought he was gods gift to women.

      Thought it was good, not that I'm an authority on Che Guevara. Benicio Del Toro is a hell of actor in my eyes and does a very good job.

      I actually heeded this advice when in HMV (using my gift vouchers) and got a nice Alfred Hitchcock box set for £15, along with Little Miss Sunshine. Made the mistake of using a silly Simpsons joke dictate which film I put on that night, and stuck on 'Dial M for Murder'. It was so boring we both stopped watching and just talked over the rest, not a bad result regardless. Cheers Carey, heh.

      Thinking of seeing Che soon, mainly because Del Toro is in it. Enjoyed everything I've seen him, as well as him having by far the best name in all of showbiz. Wish it was my name :s

    • heh heh, i'm pleased it (sort of) worked.

      i haven't seen a really scary film for ages. anyone got any good recommendations?

    • The Orphanage Carey. I told you this already.

      You were in bed when I watched it. I was all alone.

      I watched 'The Devil Wears Prada' - not even bothering to give a review - and 'Atonement', which looked nice but managed to leave me cold.

      The Orphange is very creepy. Rec's good as well.

    • Watched "Little Miss Sunshine" and "Office Space" at the weekend. I liked both of them but Amy didn't like Office Space.

      LMS was VERY funny. A definate recommend from me.

    • Nice one, just bought that and will be watching it very soon.

      rec was fucking incredible in the cinema. Never been so genuinely scared by a film before.

      Totally different experience watching a scary film in the cinema to at home.

      Anyone seen the American remake of Rec - Quarantine?? Guess it''ll be like most US remakes tho...

      Just been watching a few bootleg DVDs of late, Kyuss, Yawning Man
