New thread
So todays market volitility and general spazzing by brokers all over the world has reminded me of the SEMINAL Film Trading Places, and makes me want to watch it.

What other films should I watch. This thread is about Film, which I'm really into.

Trading Places is a top film
Not least for the first appearance on celluloid of Jamie Lee Curtis' norks.

There's an awesome film with Edward James Olmos in it. Blade Runner, it's called. Bit pretentious but worth sticking with it.

That wasn't my intention, to be honest. I'm pretty sure you know that I hate you. Maybe it's cathartic.

I did it for a punchline,
Kristine said "you don't seem to be the sort who pops their collar" I searched for that so I could find a bunch of posts saying "chompy is a cunt" implying that people who pop their collars are cunts.

I'm very witty.
