Do you want to be like me? Or do you want to ASCII me?

A two and a half hour tension-fest filled with men, horses and Nick Cave (he is neither horse nor man). The only way this movie could have been better is if it had a subplot involving alien abduction.

Not.

Robert Ford owns Jesse James scene



Apparently the director's cut is four and a half hours. I think the two extra hours involves aliens. No, not really. I think the two extra hours are slapstick comedy in a Blazing Saddles vein. No, not really.

I Am Awesome

Ok, so if I was Will Smith I'd being say "I am awesome" all the time... like, when I'm on the phone and at the shops and stuff. I mean, you know you would - especially with some of his rather interesting and entertaining films lately...

..I did, however, recently see a preview for 'Hancock'... We'll see.

Darjeeling Fucking Limited

If you haven't seen this movie then what are you doing on this blog? Fuck off and watch it and then come back! Yeah!

Running after the train scene


This still pretty much accurately encapsulates Wes Anderson in all his bright-coloured, visually-stunning and quirky glory.

Error: Gone From Memory Already

Ok, so I just watched Eragon and it was awful. I'm quite sure the books are fantastic though. Shame the remaining third and fourth books are no longer going to be released since Christopher Paolini killed himself on the red carpet of the premiere.

This still is basic and uninspired since I have already forgotten the majority of scenes - and I'm not going to watch it twice like I do most films. I can't even remember any awesome quotes so you're stuck with Eragon flying Saphira. I think that happens a couple of times.

Eragon flying Saphira



Consider this:
Nicholas Burns - Eragon
Val Kilmer - Brom
Tony Robinson - Durza
Jared Leto - Murtagh
Lilly Allen - Saphira [voice]

Isn't that just better already?

P.S. We Dine In Hell

Apparently Gerard Butler is in a romantic comedy. I lolzed.

Shield wall scene


There is a lot of machismo in this movie, and I first saw it in Chelmsford cinema with a group of yobbish teenage boys sitting in front.
