    One of Scorseses most interesting films and a complete floperoo in 1985

    After Hours, well worth catching

    someone tonight recommended this "serenity" to me aswell.

    Please tell me someone else saw The WaterBoy tonight and Waynes World 2!

    Two great comedies! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 869 ✭✭✭flying _squirl


    i didnt catch water boy (seen it before) saw waynes world thoe

    "dyou think that im a gulla-bull? or even a gulla-calf?"

    :D

    by the way, its worth noting that the tv seriese was better then the movie. unfortunatly it ends abruptly (was cancled for some reason) so the movie trys to take up where it left off and then cram in an ending and it kinda suffers for it.

    Has anyone seen Hot Rod on Sky Movies?

    I never heard of this movie until I stumbled across it at the weekend. It's the kind of movie that you think is stupid at first but then it just drags you in....

    ...not long after you can't help yourself laughing out loud. Very funny!:D

    Look out for it.

    Reh Heat (ITV, now) is better!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,051 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    TV3 tonight at 9: Stranger Than Fiction. Will Ferrell plays the "normal" guy for once - an IRS auditor, a job where everyone hates him, such as a baker whose books he has to check (Maggie Gyllenhall). Well, normal apart from the voice in his head, narrating his life in real time. It's as if someone's writing his life as he lives it.I saw this on a plane a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. It's weird seeing Will Ferrell just acting, not shouting, but he's actually pretty good at it.

    Ye Hypocrites, are these your pranks
    To murder men and gie God thanks?
    Desist for shame, proceed no further
    God won't accept your thanks for murder.

    ―Robert Burns

    Day of the Jackal ITV 4 10.20 pm/11.20pm (+1)

    Classic slick procedural/thriller where we already know the ending but it doesn't matter! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,255 ✭✭✭James T Kirk


    Nashville, RTE1, 02:10 - 04:45, May 30/31 (tonight/tomorrow, depending on how you spend your weekend :D).

    A film you'll either love or hate, but a classic nonetheless.

    Knowing RTE at this hour, allow about 10 mins either end if recording.
    Allow even more if they showed any kind of live sport earlier. :rolleyes:

    Anyone ever heard of a film called "Grave of the Fireflies"? Its on Film Four tonight, is it worth staying up for? Bear in mind that I cant stand anime normally, if its got any kind of monster in it or they have stupidly high pitched annoying voices I probably wont like it :p. IMDB says its brilliant though, dont want to look to deep into any of the threads in case it ruins it.

    Well worth watching tbh. In my humble opinion, it's one of the best war films ever made, brutally honest and innocent look at the ravages of war.
