American Psycho

I saw this for the first time last night and I love it! It’s very funny, and Christian Bale is typically outstanding.
Batman Begins

I saw this film earlier tonight on Sky One, and I swear it will be the last time I ever try to watch a movie on that channel. The ad-breaks are about 10 minutes long, and just when you think that you’ve seen the last idiotic commercial for their dreadful programming, along comes an advert [...]
Unforgiven

I saw this again the other night. This is one of my favourite scenes from all the films I’ve seen. It comes right at the very end of the movie, so be advised that it’s quite a spoiler if you haven’t already seen it.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

I didn’t see all of this the first time I watched it (the disk was scratched), but I remember it was pretty damn hilarious. I really want to see the end of it now…
No Country For Old Men

Saw it this evening. Very impressive stuff. I feel like a fraud when I try to write film reviews, so I’ll just recommend it on the basis that I liked it.
“The Golden Compass”
Posted on November 17, 2007 - Filed Under Film, Religion | 3 Comments
“The Golden Compass” is what Northern Lights was retitled for its release in America. It’s a smashing book, and so I had high hopes when I read that a film was in production. However, it seems that the people at New Line Cinema have opted to bowdlerize Philip Pullman’s story by stripping away all the [...]
Battle Plan; Recruits Needed
Posted on October 17, 2007 - Filed Under Film | 2 Comments
The plan for tomorrow night’s campaign is simple:
1. See Mr Hands: The Movie (otherwise known as Zoo) in the Kino cinema at 9.
2. Go drinking (as in hardcore drinking).
3. Get drunk (as in China drunk).
4. … whatever.
So who’s with me?
Update: Forget it, I’m way too tired, and it seems that few are interested in this [...]
Mr. Hands for Cork Film Festival
Posted on October 10, 2007 - Filed Under Film, Internets | 2 Comments
Mr. Hands in the internet handle of a guy named Kenneth Pinyan, who died in 2005 in Washington state after being filmed (NSFW [or anywhere else for that matter]) having sex with a horse. It now transpires that some fellow called Robinson Devor has taken it upon himself to document this unusual death in [...]
Halo 3 Vs. Spider Man 3
Posted on September 27, 2007 - Filed Under Film, Video Games | 2 Comments
As mentioned in the last post, there was a concerted effort on Microsoft’s part to bring in more money on Halo 3’s release date than Spider Man 3 managed on its entire opening weekend ($151 million dollars, a box office record). Obviously there’s little point comparing the two different releases; one is possibly the greatest [...]

A friend from my Chinese adventure sent me a link to this. It might not be funny if you haven’t seen the movie.
Thanks Daniel.
Transformers

Seldom have I seen a film so bad and yet so brimming with awesome.
I was an avid Transformers fan as a kid, so when I heard that Michael Bay was directing a Transformers film I was annoyed, given the director’s track record for making awful movies (which somehow manage do well at the box office). [...]

None of the guys I went to China with have seen it apparently.
“This is CAKE TOWN!11″

I first saw this after I’d had a few beers, and watching it now I still find it funny, so I thought it was worth blogging.
