    I know man.

    The lad who died was more a friend of my brother, and this weekend is his anniversary.

    It's the only time the pitch is available, as it has league games earlier on the saturday.

    tis very good alright, couple of scenes in it were the most i had laughed at the cinema in quite a while.

    think its 20mins too long myself, but apart from that, its top notch.

    glad to hear my opinion hold that much water with ya :pac:


    also just watched the first episode of the Cleveland show, id say a fan of Family guy will like it but its still too early to tell and a ep2 will be far better to judge on as it will stand alone id assume unlike ep1 which dealt with his leaving Quahog and introducing the core new characters to the show.

    maybe on a repeat viewing i may agree but the time seemed to fly by when i watched it and yes as you say its really funny and a real guilty pleasure of a movie. I mean considering what its about its kinda odd how everyone leaving the cinema had big massive smiles on our face at the end but that we did.

    I really didn't like this watched the first 20-30 minutes and it just seemed so Hollywoodised.

    Generation Kill is where its at man. Brilliant show.

    Generation Kill was a one off I think. Although I would love to see an Afghanistan one.

    The Wire has 5 series. Each one is supposed to be epic.

    each one is epic.

    Im a massive Sopranos fan and it (The Wire) is the only show i would consider on its level. They are a level above all the other top shows out there like Oz for instance

    yes im a HBO mark

    HBO know how to do a show alright.

    True Blood is fantastic if you ignore the silliness.

    yep the thought of a vampire serious just did not appeal to me but i gave it a chance just cos it was HBO (and cos Anna "stookie" Paquin is mmmm) and it is quality pity S2 only has 2 more eps, but atleast S3 has been greenlit.

    7 part mini series based on the Iraq war made by the same people who made the Wire and once again HBO, its awesome even if at the start it can seem like Jarhead the series (cos not much is happening), dialouge, characters etc are top notch. Each episode is around an hour long (not including ads iirc) also. Like the wire its very realistic too

    if your a fan of the wire watch out for Ziggy from Season 2 in it, he has a major role and is great in it.
