That would be great, zooo. But Cronenberg's a one off. And as the saying goes, if ifs and buts were candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas!
The Woman In Black. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Radcliffe is a bit young to be playing a widower, even a young one, but he makes a decent fist of it. And the film has a nice sense of sustained creepiness that I haven't seen since Frostyboy's heyday.
Ted.
It was enjoyable, but I'd have liked to see it more crazy & less Rom-Commy

My review was better.

The Dark Knight Rises. Very enjoyable conclusion to the trilogy. Tom Hardy's not bad as Bane, although Anne Hathaway steals the film as Catwoman.
The Descendants. Any film featuring a mother in a coma is not going to be my sort of thing, but this was tolerable in parts. Nothing happened much toward the end though, presumably I was meant to cry or something. Ain't gonna happen.
Snow White and the Huntsman - overly ambitious and a little ridiculous as a result. Shame.
I watched half an hour of Moonrise Kingdom the other day, but it bored me, so I switched off.
I've just seen Blitz, a British crime 'thriller'. A plot with more holes than Rab C Nesbitt's vest, wooden performances, nonsensical and unexplored sub-plots, a full-house of cliche bingo, and Jason Statham.
On the plus side, it was quite short.
Hunter Prey, a low budget sci-fi. It's nicely shot with some interesting themes. The director's major influences show through a bit obviously at times, but well worth a viewing.

I actually want to see that. 
I like a bit of Stath. And it's got Aiden Gillen and Paddy Considine too. They're no slouches.

IT DOES?
I should really check his imdb page more often.
