    The last time I watched it, I came across a fault that made me think it wouldn't be your kind of film, Jean. Specifically, the one dimensional characters and lack of humour. Not quite total lack, but still. The first time I watched it, at the cinema, I must admit I really enjoyed it. Now? I appreciate the ideas, hell, I love films that make me think, but beyond that...I like it, but I do know it's not exactly Life on Mars in how it handles the blurring between dreaming and reality.

    Inception, boring? No way. Not that I don't think you're allowed to your opinion or anything, lol, but ... are you watching the right movie? lol Inception jumped into my top thirty list with EASE after I first saw it.

    Yet you didn't rate Withnail & I very highly, Shannon, and that's my alltime favourite movie. So I can understand the different tastes more than anyone. Inception is a really clever film, but, as far as sci-fi stories centered around dreaming are concerned, I think the Who 2 parter of of Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead remains my favourite, as that also fucks around with time travel too. Not to mention it's hilarious.

    lol, touche! I really have to jump on Doctor Who ... maybe when my 40+ tv shows are over (and after I re-watch Sparacus with my girlfriend (she's never seen it)) I will start Doctor Who.

    MAYBE! lol

    I've only watched bits and pieces of Spartacus. I may check it out myself sometime. (Once I watch Carnivale, which I promised Heather I'd watch! (Even if I'm doubting her taste more day by day...))

    Carnivale, had a forced and bitter/sweet ending. You did the right thing. Not that it isn't worth watching, but it leaves much to speculation

    Yes...but it's Matt Berry! Actor/singer/advertiser who could sell cheese to a hardcore vegan, the guy's a legend! And he does have the most amazing voice ever! 3 of them, actually: his comedy voice, his singing voice, and his normal voice. All awesome. So yes, Berry trumps all!

    I liked Rebel Without A Cause. A little dated, but a decent movie. YOU'RE TEARING ME APART! lol

    Carnivale was cancelled at the last minute, and they didn't get a chance to do the ending they wanted. They just finished the season. If you want to know what was GONNA happen in season three, here you go:

    Brother Bears, I must ask: were you able to finish Inception? And was there any of it that you at all enjoyed? (Also, was I right about why you found it so boring when you posted earlier about it?)

    If you didn't like it, I'll promise I'll make up for it by watching Wag the Dog this week! (I would've watched it sooner, but I wanted to leave it a while after watching so much excellent satire on my Armando Iannucci set, first with The Day Today, and then with the near perfect The Thick of It, so it did set the bar unbelieveably high.) Also, I'll try to watch a film by Argento this week.

    I had to go to bed so I left off at some place I am not sure I will be able to find now. I will give it another try tonight. I hate this type of editing, and I do not believe in movies which require mental effort to merely understand what is happening.

    Did I earn a Wag the Dog watch already, or do I have to finish the movie? And if I suddenly like it, does it mean that you will procrastinate indefinitely?

    And, DD, you will love Carnage! Can't wait for it to be officially released.

    Well, either way, I'm going to watch WtD this week. Tonight, if possible.

    And just looked up Carnage, and you're right, it does sound like my kind of thing. Also, since you reminded me of Wag the Dog, I'll just remind you to check out either Four Lions, one of my favourite films of last year, or The Thick of It, which is a tv series, but there's very, very few eps so far, sadly. I think you would enjoy either greatly.

    "Why? The crisis."
    "What crisis?"
    "I'm working on that."

    As you guessed Jean, I'm watching Wag the Dog, and you're right, I'm really, really liking the look of it so far, especially De Niro as the US equivalent of a spin doctor. And I am now 100% certain that you will enjoy The Thick of It, especially Peter Capaldi giving one hell of a performance of the master of pure evil that is Malcolm Tucker.

    "We're going into lockdown!"
    "Lockdown? Why are you saying lockdown? This isn't a prison drama!"
    "Actually, it is a prison drama. It's the Shawshank Redemption. Only more tunneling through shit and no fucking redemption!"

    Which reminds me, I need to see In the Loop, as that's basically Malcolm Tucker in America, and he's really not liking it too much!

    No matter how many times I watch it, the very beginning of Life on Mars is nothing but sheer fucking magic.



    I think me, Pond and bears (and hopefully others?) need to sort out a rewatch soon.

    I just watched that last night, Zagreus. Funny how that happens...great mind, and whatnot, you know? I even found a cheap set on Amazon.co.uk, so I might have to buy it if we were to plan a rewatch...
