2 hours of shite :roll:

I saw that earlier this week. A lot of people have criticised it. Or specifically criticised Peter Jackson for misjudging it. I have not read the book - but I will, so I can't comment on that score, yet.

But I felt there was a better film there than came out. Specifically your fellow country 'person' Saorise Ronan. I thought she was excellent.

Most of the films you watch must be in Black and White :lol:


The Book of Eli is a bit weird so most of you guys should enjoy it.


Percy Jackson Lighting thief is for those of us who enjoy fantasy and sword play :oops:

Band of Brothers was very good as well.
