    I know I couldn't resist it tee hee! :p I was tempted to just call him a knob jockey but thought better as I want him to win but he can't help it he knows no better. I just feel sorry for him he's only a kid after all.I notice Tiger Rick is missing from the list...Hmm I smell a conspiracy.

    I wanted to win this

    No-one ever says this unless they're genuinely bothered by it.
    For fucks sake. 3 years, 3 years I've made the bloody list and not once have I ever won. What do I need to do. I never win anything. :angry:
    You've got my vote pal but it looks like you are taking up the rear :(

    Dragged along to see St Trinnians.Awful, just awful. Made worse by the cinema I was in - there was a woman there who thought that the sight of a man in drag was the funniest thing ever and sounded like she was having a seizure and as for her reaction when the dogs name was revealed as Darcy well words fail me.I also think I must be getting old - I sat through the whole thing listening to the crude bulshit being spouted thinking 'how can this be a 12A?'. Honestly it made the Carry On films look like the height of subtlety.

    Sounds fun :laugh:

    This Is EnglandI wasn't alive in the 80's so i dont know how accurate it is, but i still think its a quality film. Quite sad in some parts and maybe smalll things are a little unrealistic but it was still good nonetheless. 7.5/10

    I must see this, I think the 80s and 70s were more violent in the era when we had more to protest about I was just a kid in the 80s but I remember on the news all the riots in the black areas of cities like Brixton, Tottenham and Notting Hill in London then Toxteth in Liverpool then there was Thatcher closing the coalmines and other cut backs and closures and all the strikes that went with it. Then there was the Poll Tax which was the nail in Thatchers coffin. There was football hooliganism and more of a divide in youth culture with the skins,punks, casuals and what such like. Since rave culture and the end of Thatcher things are not so bad in this country just a shame so many people are dope heads and don't stand up for what they believe in anymore. People complain about New Labour but many people can't appreciate how much worse the Tories were. I remember blackouts we don't get those anymore on a big scale.
    Its pretty much about the brits being sour that the asians are taking their jobs and that people are dying in the pointless Falklands War.
    It was not ANYTHING to do with people being sour that asian are taking their jobs, it was to do with people looking for weak minorities to blame due to the political and social climate of the country.Even though I am a staunch Labour or Lib Dem voter, Duane, I thought the blackouts were in the early eighties as the after effect of the ineffectual Labour government in the 70's (going down to the 3 day week and that).
    I can't remember to be honest only being quite young at the time what the cause of the blackouts were but things weren't good with the labour government in the 70s and I'm sure many people were relieved to have someone tougher in power when Thatcher took over as the country was already in a crap state. One of Maggies few plus points in my opinion is that she took a tough stance on the Falklands War with no help from Reagan from what I understand. I think Argentina was a country America wanted on their side in that cold war era where they didn't want Communism spreading from Cuba throughout South America.

    I'm currently about a quarter of the way through watching Star Wars with my son, stopped watching it while he wraps prezzies with the wife. It's still one of my all time fave films although I probably like Return of the Jedi best out of the original trilogy due to my age seeing it when it first came out, collecting the toys and the stickers :cool: It's nice watching films with my son that his grandad worked on especially when he'll never be able meet him as he died long before he was born. My wifes dad as I may have mentioned on here before did flying scenes and stunts in films using wires and harness and is on the credits for Superman and Flash Gordon but worked on many other productions.Being into martial arts it is interesting to see those influences with Star Wars such the use of the word master, the force which can be compared to Chi and the light sabres being a sci-fi version of swords.

    Last night I watched Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy an excellent film really enjoyed the story and the special effects really enhanced it. I liked the gun you zap at someone to see someone elses point of view that was classic :cool:By the way has anyone else watched the original series before to compare it? I recall seeing some of it but was only little at the time.

    More youtube awesomeness.

    That bit from "Scum". No, not *that* bit.This is the bit where Winstone puts the snooker balls in a sock and whacks Phil Daniels...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAifvU8IQps

    Such a brutal film, brillant though.
    Classic.Can't remember his name but the actor who he 'socks' it to is the one who played Jimmy in Quadrophenia and was recently in Eastenders. He's also on the Al Murray show - Time Gentlemen Please being repeated at the mo. I didn't realise until recently it's him in the Blur - 'Park life' video aswell, well he does most of the lyrics on the song the singing is just the chorus.What's his name?EDIT:his name is Phil Daniels.
