I've got 118 programmes recorded on my PVR and a load more on my old PVR. I'm beginning to doubt I'm ever going to watch it all. And no way to back it up.

Is that the one with Red is stop
Green is Go and yellow is 'go very fast' in it?

I liked that one

And "Jeh-Nee Hay-Den" was the bemused female character. Blinding film.

Then there's "Star Man", with Jeff Bridges.

Some very funny bits in that.

This is true Zippy. Yesterday we caught a few minutes of Catwoman (the film) I'd never seen it before. I remarked that it was just 2 birds in tight clothes fighting. He said "And?" and gave me the "You just said something really stupid look"

That was a great film

And your point is? Or where you just pointing out that he was right

Quite. Knockers always seem to win over a good argument.

Stardust - 2007.

Good call !

Stardust - 2007.

Great fun film that owes a lot to Princess Bride. Not much in the way of blood and guts action and no boobs, unless you count Robert De Niro doing the Can-Can in a corset. It does have Claire Danes and Sienna Millar who both brighten up the proceedings. Screenplay was written by Jane Goldman, who has a spectacular pair of chesticles.

KickAss - 2010 - Super hero comedy - 9/10, Rated 18. Worth the hour and a half. Lots of action, loads of laughs.

I LOVE this film, saw it at the cinema, watched my DVD 3 times now
Very highly recommended indeed...

EDIT: my DVD is rated 15

Taken, another Liam Neeson one. Ex-CIA type bod's daughter is kidnapped in Paris. He's goes to find her. Loved it. Pleasant surprise wasn't expecting too much. Lots of action, no boobs

Taken is a good film, although the "father avenging" bit is played better by Gibson in Ransom I would suggest. I would watch Taken again.

The book of eli (2010) Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman

"A post-apocalyptic tale, in which a lone man fights his way across America in order to protect a sacred book that holds the secrets to saving humankind. "

Some very good action scenes that pepper a pretty dull plot. The film drags on for 2 hours. Some slight but unimpressive twists in the end but all in all worth a miss.

"The Dish" is enjoyable*.


*It's about the moon landings in 1969, and the Park Radio telescope, rather than some sexy tart.
