I thought that "raise the Titanic" film was a con. I don't believe it was ever sunk.

Lew Grade reckoned that that film cost so much to make it would have been cheaper to lower the Atlantic.

We had an inkling, there was a clue in the poster



Now, does anyone know what happens in the movie 'Snakes on a Plane'?

There is some snakes on a plane.

Incidentally the guy who came up with the title is the 2012 winner of 'Not my ******' job' award

We were settling down to watch Titanic when 12 year old niece enters and informs us

'..oh I've seen this one. She lives, he dies, the boat sinks'

So we got our coats and went out for a drink instead....

It's ever so satisfying if the old dearelderly person is tooled up & offs said mugger with due extreme prejudice.

when I was a young soldier, I went to watch Sinbad and the eye of the tiger with me mates. It was utter , utter cr@p.
On the Saturday I was on fire duty in the cinema and the kids watched the same movie. When Sinbad was fighting the tiger they were all jumping up and down on the seats shouting 'EASY, EASY. Get im in the eye Sinbad'
It was utterly , utterly brilliant

I remember watching it with my then six year old son, the bit where Capt Smith is on the bridge as the water starts to creep towards him.

Lad says "He's gonna get his shoes wet..."

Understatement of the decade I think...

Mysterious stranger arrives in London from South America. An accident prone illegal immigrant or an endearing friend ?

CUK. Drivel.

I enjoyed Crime and Punishment. But then, there's a lot more to a good read than plot. I thoroughly enjoyed The Slow Regard of Silent Things by Patrick Rothfuss - and he spends 12 pages describing how someone makes soap.

Les Miserables. Ex-con makes good while tracked by cop.

The Hobbit:
Bilbo is recruited to help steal some jewellery from a dragon. He does, and on the way finds a magic ring. Then they murder the dragon.

Lord of The Rings:
Turns out the magic ring is a bit of a big deal so Frodo (Bilbo's nephew) is sent on a mission to throw it in a volcano. He does, and everyone is happy.

Bloke follows this whale around that sank his ship and kills it and himself.

Anymore one sentence summaries of great novels?
