Forthcoming film thread
In an attempt to lift Ms Foxtrot out of the permenent funk of hopelessness associated with knowing me biblically, I took her to see Eat Pray Love the other night (synopsis; horrible cow breaks husband's heart, bores friends to tears by complaining about how unfulfilled she is, rewards self for this behaviour by taking a year off to travel the world, fin). She enjoyed it - I was much more excited by the trailer for Tron Legacy and one of those big cardboard stands that only appear in cinemas advertising

JACKASS 3D

What future cinematic releases have got you priapic with excitement?

Alt Q - what bands are exciting anyone of late? Since discovering that We7 isn't prohibited by work's firewall have just been listening to CombiChrist a lot. Any tips?

See, there is. I do.
but sometimes, depending how their taste in books, films or other things goes, it is a very strong indicator of other things in their personalities which don't just hint at so much as gold plate and gift-wrap incompatibilities.

I don't mind Alien3
but a) it was a horrendous drop in quality from the first two (as it was always likely to be) and b) some of the concepts being banded around before production began and the ideas that Fincher had that were expunged in the name of smaller budget and less complicated plot make the end result nothing more than a disappointment.

Even so it would have been a good swansong if the saga had concluded there, the denouement was quite moving as long as it was, actually, the end. Resurrection crippled what merit Alien3 created for itself. And Whedon's influence aside, Resurrection is still generic bobbins, and there's no excuse for putting Natalie Cassidy on the big screen

Alien3 was crap. The only thing which really justifies its existence is that it was at least watchable, unlike its sequel which was just tedious shit. The very first Alien film has it, I'm afraid. (Though I must admit I still need to get round to seeing Aliens the whole way through.)

I remember the first episode I watched with some girls who absolutely loved it
and they insisted I would be instantly converted. In the episode Carrie saw Big going to church with his mother so she asked if she could go with but he said it was something he wanted to keep between him and his family. So she turns up at the church the next week anyway and sneaks in, but he sees her. I was like "what a fucking bitch, he says he wants to keep it private and she just turns up anyway?!" and all the girls were like "OMG no wai, she just wants to be a part of his life blah blah blah". Pissed me off.
