If you're quite enough you can hear Tarentino crying in the projector room.

About 15 other people showed up by the time the film began. It's the first school night of the year and the show was at 6:30, so I didn't expect many people to attend.

The kids in your town adhere to their parents curfews?
Impressive.

I saw nobody under the age of 20. I don't think it's a curfew thing, it's more a dinnertime thing on the first school night of the year.

Just read a short review written by someone who has seen The Road. He said it was mostly faithful to the Cormac McCarthy novel and was very good. I'd been worried because I loved the book and the trailer I saw made it look like an action film.

Hmmm, looks good Gavin. I like Clooney's weirder films.

Yea it looks really funny! Can't wait to see it.

Just seen Inglourious Basterds; brilliant stuff. Really whips by too, feels like half its actual length. The guy playing The Jew Hunter is superb. I really like the liberties he takes with history too; anyone who has seen the end especially will know what I mean! As it says at the start, 'Once upon a time . . .', it's not a history lesson, it's fiction.

I have just come back from watching The final destination (in 3D) and have to admit it is one of my guilty pleasures. It's tat and knows its tat but it is so dam addictive for me and I simply love them all.
Check it out but never take it seriously.

Is that... true?
:O

Apparently so.

Oh god, they're back, I got enough of them in the 90s

I don't think the Final Destination films are tat at all. They've got a nifty central conceit that they work through in a very efficient and enjoyable fashion. And the second one was genuinely clever, and starred the American guy from Love Soup.
