metanoia

I don't get it but I would like to if anyone sees fit to explain!

This probably

Well it made me snort tea out of my nose.

You miss my point: Ford is the worst thing in Blade Runner because he's a shitty actor (or at least was back then). Hasn't Ridley Scott gone on record a few times saying that he wished that he'd cast somebody else in that part?

This however, is more a matter of opinion than objectivity, which makes applying right/wrong judgements tricky. (Unlike some Australian's media profile or the Telegraph still being a broadsheet.)

It wasn't his fault, he was programmed that way.

Oh, that's ok then. I just saw on another forum a mass debate on the final few seconds, where some people think that he didn't do what he set out to do as he appeared to move, where it's clear that the camera moves to give the POV shot.

I prefer Breaking Bad to The Wire.

It was good to see that it's been renewed for a 4th season, but also good to know that the writer/creator wants to establish an end date for the show to give it the ending it deserves.

I loved EVERYTHING about the season finale of Breaking Bad, from the face to face at the beginning to the "betrayal" at the end.

 

Faced with someone about to shoot you in the face, is it required to tell them "You don't have to do this"?

 

Absolutely brilliant.

 

Last night's episode of Boondocks was one of its best episodes in its 3 seasons.

What do you mean by betrayal at the end? Who betrayed who?

Yep you're right, I had second thoughts. I'd go to after the DVD of the entire season was out, pick it up and watch it on the way to the distant planets and moments in history.

Is it wrong to wish that if I was given use of the TARDIS now, rather than travel to distant planets or amazing moments in history, I'd go to next Saturday and watch Dr Who?

I watch it too. The best thing on at the moment as far as I'm concerned. The best thing about that show is it's pretty impossible to guess where it's going.

I've got quite a few ideas about where the season arc is going to take us, some of them undoubtedly wrong - but one scene, in particular, jumped out at me. Unless the production team, and Moffat in particular, are a lot less on-the-ball than I think they are, then at least one seemingly-minor scene in this episode is going to play into the finale in a big, big way, because I think we saw more than one Doctor here - or at least, the same Doctor at two different points in his timestream. If I'm right about that, then a couple of other seemingly-minor things from previous episodes may well be a lot more significant than they first appeared, too. I'll elaborate later, but in the meantime I'm curious to see if anyone else spotted the scene I'm talking about.

 

 

Was the scene you're talking about in the forest, with the [ Spoiler : Doctors Jacket suddenly being back on ]

Have you seen Harvie Krumpet by the same Director as Mary and Max, it's here on you tube if you haven't.

Anyone been to see Avatar yet?. Or Sherlock Holmes, for that matter?.

 

Feel like treating myself, think I will go see Holmes, haven't been tempted to see a movie for ages, think the last I saw was 300 maybe.

I went to see Avatar last week, it looks amazing in 3D and is undoubtedly the finest CGI and 3D effects so far, however the story is a bit poo, it's basically Dances with Wolves on a beautiful alien planet. The cliche ridden plot shouldn't put you off from seeing it at the cinema in 3D though as it really is an incredible visual experience.

Book 5 - The naming of the beasts, is now available, my copy on pre-order at amazon just shipped anyway. Better finish book 4 sharpish.

First trailer for Avatar here I can't wait for this... but I'll have to.

New Trailer for Waters of Mars Here looks very good.

I just flew back from New York and Billie Piper was on the plane. She looked like she'd been having a very tough time in that parallel universe by the time the plane landed.

And it's dead, AICN report

Dollhouse has got a second season, which is a massive suprise. I'm really pleased as it got quite good after the first 3 or 4 weeks of misson of the week style episodes.

TSCC is dead though

Has anyone seen that British film that looks like Brazil + Dark City with Rorschach thrown in for good measure?

 

I don't know what it's called.

Are you sure that wasn't a dream you had? Sounds like a good film.

Thanks for all the good wishes, little Tristan is doing a lot better and is breathing unassisted now.

My wife had our baby son yesterday. He was so happy to come into the world, with his first almighty cry he ruptured one of his lungs, he's doing ok now and will hopefully be coming off the ventilator tomorrow and we'll be able to hold him.

The pilot of Caprica has been leaked. Obviously you can't watch it because that would be illegal.

I enjoyed it, good fun. I even liked Lee Evans and I hate Lee Evans.

That's because when Lee Evans isn't actually being himself he can be quite funny. I hate him as a comedian as he's done the same stand up routine since he started out.

Seriously, I'm the only one who saw it??? What, have you all got lives or something? :wink:

I watched it, and thought it was a good fun episode. I think Michelle Ryan would make a good long time companion, she's certainly a lot kinder on the eye than Catherine Tate.
