I quite enjoyed it! It was a wee bit contrived, and ultimately full of plot holes (so he basically took someone else's body to live out the rest of his life? Also, can he shave that beard, or is it just a projection? That's gotta itch).
I also enjoy the score. The fact that Crispy Bacon has worked for JNH shows through in his music, the main theme could almost be for a Shyamalan movie.
Yes, I thought the score was pretty good.
Anyone seen THE CABIN IN THE WOODS? I watched that recently and fookin' loved it!
Loved it ! Genius !Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Nonsense, D.
It's really a very fine, and rather tragic, movie,with some excellent acting.'no passion nor excitement here, despite all the notes and musicians' ~ Falkirkbairn -

Jake Gylenhaal or however you spell him plays a bloke who invents a code that makes tasty sauce, Steven Elfman gets hold of it and pours it all over his Crispy Bacon.
Rubbish!

Gone Baby Gone
Fucking gripping
, there are 2 parts in this movie that emotionally suffocated me. You think the story's a simple one, but then director Ben Affleck turns the ball completely around and gives it moral weight too. I must admit that I would have done exactly the same as the main character, which makes the end then also so hard to accept. Excellent performances, gripping story. Bravo Affleck (the 2 I mean 
)
8 out of 10

Monsters
I was intrigued by the trailer, but I finally rented it now. And even though it has got hardly any monsters in it, I love the slow build up here. And the visual effects look great if you realize how it was all done and made. The final 10 minutes were definitely the cream of the crop, and realizing how the story began, I can live with the end.

I loved that film for the fact that it leaves the viewer with a true moral dilemma that had me discussing with the friend I saw it with for quite a while. Which is extremely rare nowadays, when films tend to take a stance that is already a popular one and hard to disagree with. -

I had that too, you honestly think: what would I do in that situation? and if you make your choice and you see then the result, it makes you question your very morals. Which is indeed quite strong for a movie nowadays
as said, bravo Affleckwaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh -

Watched Armageddon with the kids.
Forgot how entertaining the movie is.
Yes, I know it's horrible. But it's fun.
The themes in the score are great by the way. -

It was a 'Surround the Parliament' protest.
As you can see, it ended up not so well. Protests in Madrid are being really aggressive the last months.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

The Sopranos
Just finished watching this through from start to finish (again). In my opinion, the greatest of all long-running tv shows. It's easy to enjoy at surface level, with compelling plots and so much wit, but repeated viewings really bring out its depths - the way it explores the nature of familial relationships is really something else. -

The Blu-ray sets for Indian Jones (last week) and James Bond (last night) came in just recently. They look incredible.
The Indiana Jones set came with an incredible documentary on the making of Raiders. One of the most engaging and entertaining documentary's I've ever scene. The footage , on-set discussions, and deleted scenes offered incredible insight. This breathed life into the film (My favorite movie) in a way which I never imagined. -

I started SPORANOS years ago, when it first came out. It was OK-ish, but failed to grab me, so after a few episodes I phased out. I might give it another chance down the road.
BREAKING BAD, however (as long as we're talking contemporary quality series), immediately grabbed me from the get-go and hasn't let go since. One episode is so well-told, it feels like it's 5 minutes and I just HAVE TO watch a new one and a new one and a new one etc.
Other such lauded shows I need to check out include MAD MEN and THE WIRE.I am extremely serious. -

I like Mad Men. It started very, very strongly then had a dip but the last season was excellent.
The Wire - for some reason I could never get into it. All the hype about it being the best thing ever, but it seemed to be a bit like NYPD Blue with more swearing. I tried twice but it just didn't grab me.
I would like to see Breaking Bad.
