During the last episode of "Long way down" Ewan and Charlie visited a school in Kenya (I'm pretty sure it was Kenya) where in July 2005 rebels stormed into a school and massacred 40 people, 22 children. They visited kids that literally were hacked at using machetes, one girl had a huge scar from it on her arm.

One little boy had an enourmous bullet wound on his leg. It had taken part of his leg away, thankfully he could still work. I'd never heard of it before. I watch the news daily, so why not? Because it was barely fucking mentioned on the news. But wait I thought this sounds very similar in a way to the massacre at an American school not long ago. The difference that was all over the bloody news. Of course it should've been but talk about the hypocrisy :shock:

But then so are movie stars, musicians. I don't see Romero moaning about them.

Footballers are overpaid but A: They are talented. I've no interest them but I can see that and B: They are only taking their slice. It's not as if footballers are the only ones in sport making a mint.

Vertigo 4/5
My second Hitchcock film (after the Birds). Brilliant stuff - quite noir-ish in style.

American History X 5/5
Each and every actor was spot on. The performances were brilliant. Norton is one of my favourite actors and this proves why. Avery Brooks is awesome too but hasn't made anything apart from this and DS9.

Ultimate Crime Fighter ep. 1 3/5

Just watched the first episode of this new Yuen Biao TV series.
It's about a psychic cop (Yuen Biao) who is with the Shaolin Temple, but returns to Hong Kong (his old home) and gets involved with some weird stuff. Guys having a fire within them that drives them nuts.

Not much martial arts action yet. It's just building up the premise, but it's entertaining to watch. Yuen Biao is likeable as always. The rest of the cast is OK. We see 'beardy' (without the beard) as Yuen Biao's old friend.

I watched it on stage 6, where it's available with english subs. Only 1 episode uploaded so far sadly, so I hope they'll upload the rest soon.
My girlfriend is also watching it at her home, where she has the DVDs or something, but sadly those arent subbed so thats no use to me.

I was there, the big BNB blackout of november, 2008. We lost many that day...

Basically we were terrible, he must be sacked. At 2-0 down we seemed out but it was back to 2-2, still went out :(
Brad that was a minus score.

Om Shanti Om - 5/5
Farah Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have done it again, After a good start with Main Hoon Na, this next project is bloody good, with a different story from your typical bollywood movie. The 1st part of the movie takes place in the 70's, which was very good, brought alot of old memories of indian movies when I use to see them as a kid. The 2nd part takes place in nowday. The actors and actresses are all brilliant, special credit must go to newcomer Deepika Padukone, she is brillant, very beautiful, and much better than Ash Rai. Also another mention must must go to the superb Deewangi Deewangi song, Oh my, if you love the old bollywood then you will love the cameo they have got, I can't believe that even Mithun Chakraborty!!!, Dharmendra and Jeetendra. I just to love watching there movies in the 80!!

Overall a perfect movie, don't miss it in the cinema if you love bollywood movies

No no, on one of the EROS VHSs, with no subs... it looked like it was taped from TV, like you were watching a pirate version, and every so often there used to be an advert... ;)

Yesterday – 1/5
Jeon Yun-su’s futuristic sleeping pill doesn’t feature a single interesting element. The storyline is an exceptionally uninteresting cliche collection. Technical execution is equally dull. While not the most repulsive movie I’ve seen it is hard to think of any positive things about this scifi actioner.

City Of Violence 2.5/5

ok korean actioner,not as good as i was expecting.entertaining enough with a very good music score.

Killer Constable 4/5

Cracking shaw bros effort with chen kuan-ti as a ruthless manchurian "dirty harry" . extremely bleak there's no humour in this one.very atmospheric throughout.

Ahh thats where your wrong :) I hate Movie Stars getting that much cash, I have moaned about it in the past beleve me. Esspecially when the film suffers as some moron film star gets more than all the other actors in the film combined. $20 million its obvious they get paid to much still in my mind. When $1 million would keep them going I am sure :D

I say they should get a cut of the final films profit, if the films shit and tanks they get no pay. Same goes with many other professions, but hey.



Salty you seem to get getting thru some Shaws, where do you get yours nowadays? I used to get them all from cdwow, but they rarley ever get any in stock anymore sadly.
