Damn right, I channel surfed into it halfway through and had no idea what I was watching until the end. Great to stumble on an awesome comedy show with no expectation of its worth whatsoever, an absolute p*sser. Robot song was superb.
I watched The Shinning tonight, I had never seen it before and probably won't again. It was very strange and scary but Jack Nicholson played the part really well I think but he's a creepy guy. :D I had to watch it I'd heard so much about it and the curiosity got to me, I didn't hate it but a few parts I didn't understand totaly either.

I love the bit...
where the kid is racing around the corridors and he sees two girls, then next thing you know theyre slaughtered all over the ground :eek:
and...
When Jack goes and kisses that lady who gets out of the bath, then turns into that old woman :eek:
Had me totally FREAKED! Oh, and the original 70's horror music really gave it some spook.

Yeah both of those really freaked me out as well, but yeah that one when he's kissing her then she's gross that scared the living daylights out of me.
When the kid saw redrum my nephew was saying "redrum" but all I could see was the word murder, it was really strange I couldn't see redrum at all. :eek:
Maybe I'm strange. :( Well stranger than normal. :eek:

not strange, just good with anagrams :)

I could probably look it up, but what's an anagram? :confused: :o

Here you go Shy... looked it up for you!
This is from Wikipedia - which as we all know is always right :dD
An anagram (Greek anagramma 'letters written anew', passive participle of ana- 'again' + gramma 'letter') is a type of word play, the result of rearranging the letters of a word or phrase to produce a new word or phrase, using all the original letters exactly once; e.g., Eleven plus two = Twelve plus one, A decimal point = I'm a dot in place, Astronomers = Moon starers. Someone who creates anagrams is called an anagrammist. The original word or phrase is known as the subject of the anagram.
Technically, any word or phrase that exactly reproduces the letters in another is an anagram; e.g., saltine = entails. However, the goal of serious or skilled anagrammists is to produce anagrams which, in some way, reflect or comment on the subject. Such an anagram may be a synonym or antonym of its subject, a parody, a criticism, or praise; e.g. George Bush = He bugs Gore.; Madonna Louise Ciccone = Occasional nude income; William Shakespeare = I am a weakish speller, and Roger Meddows-Taylor = Great words or melody. Another goal of anagrammists is to produce an anagram which is not only new, or previously unknown to others, but is also considered sufficiently clever to become widely known and enter the canon of famous or classic anagrams, like the examples below.

Thanks heaps for that Winterfan. :hug:

I haven't seen Taxi Driver, I must hire it and watch it. I've heard so much about it, so curiosity will get the better of me again. :D

Same here. Ive been meaning to see it for ages. Im a big DeNiro fan so this is a must. Jodie Foster is also pretty good, she won an oscar for this one didnt she?

I watched Taxi Driver, can't say it was up to my tastes, but it was interesting to say the least.
I've just watched Rock Profile - Little Britain, and I was wondering how they can get away with most of the inane bull they come up with on that.

Watched Hannibal Rising last night. Very good beginning to the Hannibal story, with a chilling performance from the lead actor.

Watched a number of movies this weekend.
The Shining has to be one of the best horror flicks floating around. Id take that over any recent horror film any day.
completely forgot bout the part with the dude in that scary-as dog suit with the butt flap :eek: was more disgusted than scared. Would probably still be freaked out if his face wasnt in that dudes crotch :eek: Messed up stuff
Ballistic would have to be one of the worst movies ive seen. Got it simply to have a good laugh with some mates. And we had a blast :D corny to the max and Lucy Liu had about 4 lines. She didnt say a word till about 40mins in.
Alexander had to be one of the most boring films ive seen. Nobody wants to know about some ancient conquerer questioning his sexuality.
Finished watching Taxi Driver just before. Really enjoyed it. DeNiro was awesome. Love the mohawk :p
Varsity Blues
love movies with sport in it. This one is great .. powerful movie.. though would of been better without dawson. :dD

I was going to edit my last post but this is a kinda 2-in-1 post.
Taxi driver got me going after there first date was at a porno cinema!
Plus, I was watching Finding Nemo. Ah, how to beat the good ol' classics of childhood days in the last... 10 years.

Watched the latest Rocky movie and it was actually better than I thought it would be.... and then they had to have the fight and spoil everything.:rolling:
I just found the whole fight lame and the heavy weight champ breaking his hand to even things up a bit really had me thinking of just fast forwarding to the end to see what happens.

Documentary called 'Thin' about this institute in the US, and 4 girls with eating disorders, and they shit they have to go through to try and recover. Quite a good documentary, with many a heart felt moment.
and last night
Fever Pitch - awesome football film about one mans love of Arsenal.
Hot Fuzz
my friend talked it up a bit too much. so it wasnt as funny as i hoped.
though still funny enough to give it another crack :dD
