I just have a feeling it'll be a cop-out.  It should be like Death Wish, but... he'll go around and bump off a few oiks, but there'll be at least one knowwhatImean-innit-like-blood-bruv Noel Clarke type who's really deeply intelligent and sympathetic.  Bollox.

Still, shouldn't pre-judge......  :?

Yeah it does look good, really want to see it.

saw baby mama last night, it was actually pretty good.

Watched Die Hard 4.0 tonight. Enjoyable but completely brainless.

[dave_mc]

yeah, definitely. i watched a bit of it last night, i'd seen it before a couple of times on sky, which is why i didn't watch it all. EDIT: it could have done without that bit with the fighter jet, though. it loses a star for that. I prefer my daft actioners to be extremely implausible, rather than flat out impossible.

I though Baby Mama was great but I'm a huge Tina Fey fan. Do you watch 30 Rock, the humour is similar to Baby Mama.

Just watched Dragon Hunter, it's got to be one of the worst films ever made. The script is awful, the dialogue would have been better if it were improvised. Oddly the characters are almost identical to Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire.

I laughed out loud at the helicopter scenes - the fire hydrant and car in particular. When the fighter jet came in I was stunned into silence.

His screen daughter was very nice though. Maybe a bit of a mini crush is being developed.

Which is one of the worst TV shows ever made*.  I can see a pattern emerging.



(* Well, that's overstating it.  But it is bad.)

nah, i haven't got round to watching it yet. It's meant to be pretty good, but the cr@ppy trailers on comedy central are kinda putting me off... :lol: that and alec baldwin being fat and annoying in them.

ah, i forgot about the helicopter scene. Yeah, that was daft too. :lol:

and yeah, mary elizabeth winstead or something like that? she's nice. :)

Care to explain why it was impossible? :)

[dave_mc]

i dunno, but i just kinda imagine that if you jumped onto a fighter jet you might, y'know, die. especially one which is about to crash.
