Shouldn't that be:

Man on Fire because it was cheap

And

Quiz Show because it is a brilliant film.

Resident Evil: Again to see what the fuss wa about, and again a very good film. Loved the red dress, leather jacket and tall boots look
you found X-2 slower paced than x1. Thats interesting, personally I found the second one to be more exciting. That had some really impressive scenes.

I bought Memento because I found it used and i was itching for some good suspense. I also heard that it messes with your head and I like that. And I bought K-Pax because I thought it was great the first time and wanted to see it again. It was not as good the second time but still worth it for the fairly low price.

BTW how do I change what it says under my avatar?

There is a easter egg for this movie that tell you how to be able to watch the movie in the correct chronological order. It is on the second disc.

To access the chronological re-edit, select the Clock, and choose C on the following five pages. You'll see a quiz that shows four illustrated panels of a woman changing a flat tire on her car. The quiz asks you to place the panels in chronological order. The trick, of course, is to place the panels in backwards order, which is 3, 4, 1, 2. After you do so, the film begins playing its scenes in chronological order. Playfully, this cut starts with the end credits rolling downwards. After that, the film's forward-moving black-and-white sequences begin, focusing mostly on the Sammy Jankis back story. (The chapters have simply been rearranged in chronological order.) This re-edit is presented in Dolby ProLogic. Although you can't fast-forward or skip forward through this presentation, you can jump to certain time codes.

It's nice to watch again after you view it in it's regular format first.

Donnie Darko

When Harry Met Sally because it's the classic romantic comedy. And I love Billy Crystal. He's hilarious! =)



Standing in the Sunlight, Laughing

I was in a store yesterday and saw some good movies in the '3 for £20' section. Then I saw some good movies in the '2 for £15' section.

I'm a greedy sod so created my own '5 for £35' section -

Lawrence of Arabia - replacing a VHS copy.
Spartacus - ditto.
Scarface (De Palma) - you guessed it.
Black Hawk Down & Dog Soldiers - They're not bad movies but mainly they were bought so I could get my hands on the first 3 films, which doesn't make much fiscal sense.

But I'm like that...
