He's extremely odd. And as Aaron said, he looks increasingly like Jaws from James Bond. But he does make some jolly good films.

On the whole Hollywood A-list, used to have their arses kissed, take a bit of mild Ross/Norton piss taking with good grace. Russel Crowe aside- now there's a knob.

Comet, Jessops, now HMV, we're literally going to have nothing but supermarkets soon.

Angry

I'm both an HMV employee AND I have a gift voucher. Not pleased.

A Gallup poll of Tesco consumers has found that 99% said, "Neigh" to horse meat being included in their burgers. A previous Tesco Chief Executive has since claimed that this would've never have happened if he was still in the saddle...
