Daybreakers. Watchable low budget vampire tosh. And thankfully it was a proper vamp film, and none of that doomed tweeny romance malarky.

Captain America: 3D 3D is f**king awful. Doesn't really know what it wants to do with story. Feels more like a 30 minute DVD prequel then a fully fledged film. Stan Lee is in it again urgh. But on the positive. Set piecs were good the costume looked good and Hugo Weaver pantomime villan is turned up to 11 which is great.

Oh if your going to sit through the credits expecting something cool, set sail for disappointment.

Season opener of new Thundercats.

IT'S FUCKING AWESOME!!!! Seriously. Love it so far.

Pleasantville. Ages since I've seen it. Still great. Although I could have sworn there was a suicide in it? That must have been some other film where modern teenagers find themselves trapped in a black and white fifties sitcom.

The King's Speech. Well, last night. I thought it was pretty good, actually!

It is. Although in a weird way it's a tribute to con artists and blaggers as the therapist has no qualifications whatsoever.

Well he was Australian. What would you expect?

(Await support from all the Kiwis.)

Zookeeper. All I will say is in years to come my children will realise exactly how much I love them.
Oh, and I get to pick the film that we see en famille.

The Ballad of Mike Haggar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ce9J-J30B3o&feature=player_embedded

So awesome it could be weaponised and used to solve all wars ever.

Carlos the Jackal. Sprawling five and a half hour epic about the notorious terrorist. Great portrait of one man's slide from ideologically driven freedom fighter to pudgy middle-aged has-been with testicle trouble.

'Never Let Me Go'; good film, a bit rushed though, should have been a good 20-to-30 mins longer.

Great film great book

so very sad

Didn't Alex "The Beach"Garland do the screenplay? It was about time he did something decent again.

I think it caught the idea of the book very well and one of the ideas is how short and truncated the character's lives are.

So somehow that jarring feeling works quite well.

Atleast for me.
