Fop 1 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) Wild at Heart is pretty straightforward too like. Well until the next series when a radioactive falling asteroid causes a bush fire, mutant flesh eating wildebeest and the bint off Coronation Streets hairstyle to finally develop sentience and secretly clone Amanda Holden anyway, causing Stephen Tompkinson to use his patented "straining on the toilet" face for an exciting 7 times in one episode.

Meenzer 14243 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 We were channel-hopping late last night and caught a few minutes of "Happiness". Fella turns to me with this look on his face and simply asks "You bought the DVD of this, didn't you?". I came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SloopJohn 0 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 FRIDAY 28TH MARCH THE ELEPHANT MAN 11.10pm ITV3 David Lynch's most straightforward accesible film is the true story of John Merrick. this definitely isn't true. Straight Story has to be his most straight forward and accesible film. still it's brilliant. It's debateable. They're both true stories told without abstraction. I think you've been taken in by the title of The Straight Story a bit too much. i think The Elephant Man is way more abstract than The Straight Story. i don't think the Straight Story has anything of those lucid, elephant rape scenes in The Elephant Man. and Lynch is great.

Guest alex Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) Sin City on BBC3 now. I know the cartoon / graphic novel or whatever probably contained the same corny language and ridiculously OTT violence etc. but that doesn't alter, for me, that's it's just a film full of very corny lines and completely silly bits of violence. I didn't mind the violence that much though. Edited April 3, 2008 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mind the violence that much though. I know it makes no difference if you're bored rigid, but it looks fantastic, a real groundbreaking film if you ask me. Laid down a new template mimicked (unfortunately) by the likes of Beowulf and 300 that will be continue to be used for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen Beowulf but I'm not particularly interested and I think you know I share your feelings on 300. I know a lad who thinks 300 and Transformers are the best two films in recent years. I couldn't manage more than about half an hour of the latter. The acting man, especially the main lass in it. Fucking hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hell Transformers was only meant to be a nostalgia fest anyway rather than a serious film. Or at least that's how I viewed it, I quite enjoyed it. Especially the bit where he rings an Indian call centre (as I saw it in Bangalore!). I thought the special effects were fantastic, but your mate wants his head read.

Guest alex Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I didn't think it was meant to be serious or anything really. I love daft movies but I just thought it was shit. The special effects were good but they're good in virtually every Hollywood blockbuster anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) I couldn't tell if the effects were good or not. I couldn't make anything out. As soon as I started to focus on what they'd just cut to, they cut to something else within a second. Edited April 3, 2008 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The special effects were good but they're good in virtually every Hollywood blockbuster anyway. True enough. It was as corny as hell and if I didn't like Transformers as a child I probably would have hated it. God knows what John Turturro was doing in it. Maybe he liked Transformers too, although he would have been a bit old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd written, directed and produced his own film Romance and Cigarettes. I think he was looking for a high paying small part so he could finance distribution himself too.

In fact, it's fair enough if he was just doing it for the money regardless. 99% if us would do exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
