Jimbo 133 Posted May 27, 2006 Author Share Posted May 27, 2006 My daughter had a day off school today so we watched Back to the Future and then Raiders of the lost ark, it was the first time she had seen either of them, clearly she gained far more from watching those than she could have from being at school today ! 141916[/snapback] Excellent parenting. 141991[/snapback] Aye, Physics and History lessons and some fun too.

So far (in addition to those you mention) I've got... The Kid Toy Story x 2 The Goonies The Incredibles Shaolin Soccer Rocky Spirited Away Star Wars The Ten Commandments The Wizard of Oz Mary Poppins ET The Iron Giant Willy Wonka Watership Down Ferris Buellers Day Off The Champ I'm sure I'm missing loads though. The Proposition - They don't make enough westerns any more. This is an excellent Aussie film (written by Nick Cave of the Bad Seeds). Some moments of horrible violence, so the sqeamish might want to avoid it, but otherwise I recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke 1 Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I was dragged kicking and screaming to see The Da Vinci Code on Saturday. It's better than the book, which really isn't saying much. Good performance by Ian Mckellan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Advent Children. I'm a big fan of FF7 so when me mate said "you wanna watch Advent Children" last night I was all for it. I thought it was great, the fight scenes were breathtaking and to think it's all CGI is astounding! Only gripe though was Cait Sith. 1) Where was his mog? 2) Why was he SCOTTISH?????

Jill 0 Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 United 93: Really good. Scary Movie 4: Really fuckin' bad. When a Stranger Calls: Reasonable (not as bad as some of the reviews I've read) but left with far too many questions at the end, none of them ones that you really care to know the answer to.. but shey should've included it in the film.

Happy Face 29 Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 just finished watching the da vinci code. pretty good stuff - must be identical to the book, scene by scene, paragraph by paragraph 144836[/snapback] While not quite as bad as people would have me think, it wasn't that great either. At least it had a sense of humour about itself. I'm paraphrasing lines here, but near the end characters saying things like "this is getting ridiculously absurd now", and "when will this shit end" struck me as quite hilarious. It had more endings than Return of the King and gave audience assistance no-one needed (once we've seen them in the back of the car, who couldn't work out they got out of the plane and into the car?). It seemed a lot longer than it's unnecessary 2 hours 40 minutes. Unlike Barry Lyndon which flew by. Amazing that it's 20 minutes longer than Da Vinci and I was never bored once.
