yeah, but her sister is hot

Out of the two I much prefer Zooey. The other one has a huge jaw that makes her look a little manly at times.

If we're talking Zooey-alikes, I prefer Katy Perry :lol:

I just watched Ip Man, OK but hardly earth shattering. Also love the retro history stating that the Chinese won the war against the Japanese.
Last night I watched Edge of Darkness, quite good and very gripping. Some people have said it's Gibson's best performance for years, but apart from his slightly ropey Boston accent he just seems to snooze through it. Interested to see what the TV series was like.

saw the hangover last night... not sure. About 50% of it was great, but the other 50% was basically blatant sexism/racism, which I could have done without.

Also all those ads alibi has been shoving down my throat about castle have worked... started watching it. It's completely daft, but it's also great. :lol:

[WezV]

i have been watching castle since the start because the wife is a big nathan fillion fan.  Its good harmless fun... cheesy as hell, but rather enjoyable

I quite liked The Hangover, better than I expected but not amazing. I also watched Super Troopers last night. Hated it the first time I tried to watch it (had to switch off after about half hour) but found it a lot funner this time meownd :P

Not film but I believe Dexter S5 started in America last night!

[dave_mc]

^ ^ yeah i don't mind cheesy as long as it's not pretending to be anything else. :D

^ yeah, basically that. Everyone was going on about how awesome it was. Granted 50% of it was very good.

Encounters at the End of the World - Werner Herzog documentary about McMurdo Station in the Antarctic. Absolutely brilliant, a must see.

Ondine - Fantasy romance with Colin Farrell as the lead. I was expecting it to be mediocre bit it isn't. Not a great film but a nice slow paced experience with some excellent cinematography showing the Irish landscape.

I found super troopers HILARIOUS.

Its not even my normal kind of humour either, it just cracked me up.

And, yes I see what you did there :lol:

[dave_mc]

oh super troopers, i thought you were talking about starship troopers :oops:

Yeah, it's ages since I watched it but if I remember correctly I think it was pretty good- I think you're right, the first bit was pretty terrible, but if you stuck through that, it got great.

[MDV]

I thought the first bit was awesome. Its my favourite, when they just screwing with people and goofing around.

[dave_mc]

it's probably 5 years, if not more, since I watched it, I really can't remember... :lol: I just have a vague recollection of thinking it was rubbish, but then sticking with it until it got really good...
