or was that just shane black's script?
No it was really shit directing too... sloppy camera setups and the like, figures someone that lame would have been behind the camera. I still think its decent enough entertainment and way better than all the other movie's he did.
Watched Die hard with A Vengance. I stand by what i said, Die Hard With A V is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Die Hard 2. I think by 'die hard-ish' you mean claustrophobic? Yeah i get that, but i thought number 3 works way better than number 2 did which tried to clone. I wouldn't say its much more comedy/action than any of the others, its just as violent and the comedy is much more like the first one than the second one (ie. its funny one liners, not unfunny one liners).
Warning about the uk dvd collection, die hard 3 is the american cut version. With the knife cut to the throat and lots of "mother fuckers" cut out. Yanks and their swearing
Anyhow, 3 > 2 if you ask me
Watched loads of episode of robot chicken, some funny shit.. Highly recommended if you haven't seen it before. Warped enough for me to enjoy and its got the usual suspects doing voices (seth green and co.).
Watched Sar Wars, love asian comedies, they have just the right mix of stupidity, slapstick and snappy editing to make them really excellent. These days i would take an asian comedy over a shitty american one any day of the week. Once again, just shows how shit hollywood is at making movies these days.
"Oh no! Made in Thailand!"
Watched the Tobe Hooper episode of Masters of Horror. It was really stupid, i flicked through the next one but wasn't in the mood... looked a bit slow serial killer flick.
Got New Statesman on DVD max, i wouldn't say its just conservatives these days. Rik Mayall should do another series to take the piss out of labour, its just the right time for him to pick it up again.
