Try this instead. As good as the WWF used to be for trash talking.

I enjoyed it. Been watching those fights for years so it was nice to see some new footage..

I thought this would be naff but it turned out to be wonderful.

A big love note from Martin Scoresezz to the movies.

 

[Cryptid]

Watchable while it's on, but ultimately disappointing. Giamatti is quite good as one would expect, but it's no Sideways. 7/10 dipping into 6/10.

IFI in Dublin are screening my favourite film of all time this weekend

http://www.irishfilm.ie/cinema/dispfilm_07.asp?filmID=7696&Date=25/02/201&PageID=15

Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s wonderfully quirky and irresistibly enchanting Amélie makes a welcome return to the big screen in a new digital restoration to celebrate its 10th anniversary. After a lonely childhood with a father who showed her little physical affection, the adult Amélie (an adorable Audrey Tautou) waitresses in a Montmartre café filled with eccentric staff and customers (including Jeunet regular Dominique Pinon). The accidental discovery of a boy’s treasure box in the wall of her bathroom prompts her to trace the owner, now a grandfather. On seeing the joy this brings him, Amélie becomes a guardian angel of sorts, devising elaborate and secret stratagems for bringing happiness to those around her. In the process, she finds that there may be a chance at happiness for her too, thanks to the arrival of Nino (Mathieu Kassovitz). Jeunet’s Paris is probably the most fairytale-perfect depiction of the city ever committed to celluloid, and the film remains as heartwarming as ever. (Notes by Kevin Coyne).

A lecturer in my college actually gave us a short chat about how Amelie is a racist movie because the only non white characters are a simpleton and a one legged tap dancer.

Some people huh ?

Oh for God's sake! That's actually hilarious. How many non-white lecturers are in the college?

 

[washingcattle]

No idea.

Surely a one legged person who manages to become a tap dancer would be a positive role model for monopedal non-Caucasians?

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Saw this tonight. In IMAX.

Pretty damn good for what it is.

Drive - looks and sounds great but there's not much to it really is there? It was a bit too Michael Mann for my liking as well.
