    QI = Flawless victory.

    I only ever seemed to catch this on when I really had nothing else to do, but now I'm making an effort to watch whenever I can, and it never disappoints.

    Watched Dylan Moran What It Is on YouTube, as usual he was asphyxiatingly funny- definately want to see his next tour.

    Oh yeah, saw Kick Ass with Jay P and company, that was pretty great too, but I think everyone knows that by now.

    Kick ass......amazing. Seriously if you havn't seen it go.see.it.now.

    Hit girl is like a little Beatrice Kido....****ing awesome!

    EDIT: Ennio Morricone is on the soundtrack. ENNIO MORRICONE.

    Kick Ass really surpassed my expectations. Nicholas Cage was good for the first time in a long while. Far gorier than i anticipated. The soundtrack is awesome, i want!

    Despite my reservations I'm really enjoying the new series of Doctor Who


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭DancingQueen:)


    I'm currently watching 2012 because my parents think this whole cloud of ash thing making airports close is hilarious (watching The Day After Tomorrow after). My dad keeps making jokes about the world ending:pac:. Special effects are great in it but the storyline is pretty cringe-worthy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,164 ✭✭✭Konata


    Watched Laputa: Castle in the Sky on the train. <3. Studio Ghibli are masterminds.

    Also started watching How I Met Your Mother, to see what all the hype is about. Love it, hilarious stuff!

    I'm not a big fan of doctor who,but this new guy works fairly well.



    I'm racking up a list of tv shows/films to watch over the summer,it's getting pretty long at this stage.Maybe I'll get a group together and make a team effort of it,should be good craic.

    my first three: FRINGE,Stargate Universe and Firefly.
    how I met your mother is getting list worthy as well[everyone seems so mad into it and I've never seen it] there are more,these are what's in my head right now

    I just ordered this off amazon. It's the film that inspired Pan's Labyrinth so it must be good!

    What were those reservations? I wasn't a huge fan of David Tenant. Yesterday's episode was pretty weak though.

    The IT Crowd, a programme which I quote from far too much <3<3<3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 708 ✭✭✭syncosised


    The IT Crowd is awesome! "What was all that about?"

    I've just finished watching the first series of Glee, it's great! :)

    I just got the impression they seemed to be making Smith into Tenant part two. I liked Tenant but I didn't want regenerations to become irrelevant to the story.

    Saw Jordan Scotts film, ''cracks'' last night. It tries hard to be haunting, there is an eerie tone. Eva Green was stunning, and played her role very well IMO, I loved the 1930s era clothes and there were some beautiful landscape scenes but overall I felt it lacked a certain something.

    I love the mentalist! At this stage it's up there with glee as one of my favourite shows at the moment!:)

    Ahh! I love the Mentalist too! It's pure class. I think it's funny how the police men he works with are always like "oh, you think we can't crack cases without you" then they try push him off cases, but they always up needing him, because the seriously can't crack cases without him :pac:
    I always find that amusing. Class show anyway!:D

    Instead of cramming for an exam as I should have been doing, last night I watched the second and third Matrix films. The second one was quite good - contained a glorious scene of several Smiths attacking Neo.

    He was some messed up dude.

    Been watching a load of the Vicar of Dibley recently. Dawn French, how I love you.
    Three of my favourite bits from it:






    I think I just find the last one so funny because I could see myself doing it..


    Oh and just one more, I'll stop now, I promise

    Just bought the first series of Twin Peaks. I've never seen it before, but have heard from *ahem* reliable sources that it is one of the best TV shows ever. It's also meant to be the weirdest TV show ever, so looking forward to getting into that.

    ok so im 3 episodes in, and i have to admit; it is pretty fcuking weird. but in a good way though! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭Ginja Ninja


    i've got Firefly on my hard drive, a lot of you might not have heard of it it's a scifi cult series from josh whedon about a western style frontier in space and it is made of all kinds of juicy nerdy win.

    Elfen Lied for me :/ Pretty good so far I must say.

    Watching Anatomy for Beginners on 4OD.

    It's not really useful for exams in any way but it feels slightly productive.

    I'm just after watching Mall Cop (which was actually good in a way) and Goodfellas (which is amazing in so many ways).

    "Oh, I like this one... One dog goes one way, the other dog goes the other way, and this guy's sayin', "Whadda ya want from me?' Guy's got a nice head of white hair, it's beautiful."

    Goodfellas is so very extremely awesome. Much respect. Must watch it again soon.

    I started watching a ridiculous amount of The Big Bang theory over the Easter break, only a few more eps to go until I'm caught up! I have to look up so many of the jokes I don't get tho >.<

    Entourage - I'm only on season 2. :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭degausserxo


    I'm rediscovering the US Office. I've seen the latest series so I know what happens, but now that I'm back on season two.. Jim and Pam ojgsodhgsadjfasdkcjsd, KISS ALREADY.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭jefreywithonef


    Was watching Curb Your Enthusiasm and had the pleasure to witness two of my favourite people ever share the screen: Larry David and Steve Coogan (as a hapless therapist). :D

    Good news: Finished watching the first season of Twin Peaks and it is pretty awesome.

    Bad news: I'm now in constant suspense until I go out and buy the second series.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭Ginja Ninja


    I watched a film called "Gabriel" recently after a friend mentioned it [I have a thing for angels and their mythology] it's really good,it's about the 7 archangels that are fighting[and losing] for purgatory and the film follows Gabriel as he goes down and kicks some wholesale ass.It's a good film to pick apart and analyse from a theology point of view or just watch it for the fight scenes

    And as of right now I'm loading up Serenity,the Firefly movie.I need to see how it "Finishes",it's a shame they never made more of firefly,it's such a great series.I have it all on my hard drive which helps :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭jefreywithonef


    Just after watching No Country For Old Men... I wouldn't call it their best but the Coens sure know how to brew suspense.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    late night tv on rte2 is really good on thursdays ; big bang theory (great), united states of tara (brilliant) and pushing daisies (good, and completely bizarre)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,426 ✭✭✭Arcade Panda




    I can't wait to see this! Not that I can relate to having an imaginary superhero friend. Because that would just be really weird.

    *whistles*
