Watching American History X on BBC2, long time since I saw it.
The discussion at the dinner table about Rodney King made me think of the film "Dark Blue" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0279331/ - check it out if you find it. It's a cop drama set in the run up to the Rodney King trial in LA, and the boy's club attitude in the police force, covering for each other, etc.
Best film I've seen Kurt Russel in, in a long time.
I rented Running Scared with low expectations. Was really surprised - a really great chase movie. Well worth watching if you like a thriller, never let up for a moment. Fantastic.
Red Sorghum delivered a hefty punch on the big screen.
Snakes on a Plane
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

Snakes on a Plane has its own thread here ...

It probably comes under the "too obvious" category, but Hot Fuzz is out on DVD this week. I thought it was a hoot. "Shaun of the Dead" is great too. And if you've never seen the Pegg/Frost sitcom "Spaced" that's well worth checking out too.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
i taught ''Hot Fuzz'' was terrible.... i went the cinema with a friend when it came out and i said to him it should be good looking back at ''shaun of the dead'' which i taught was genius...but it was terrible...no word of a lie with about 20mins left, a few ppl left(and there was only bout 20 there) and id never seen that before with a film!
was nowhere near as good as shaun' and it wasnt even funny in the slightest(not sure were they even trying to make it funny, it didnt look like it anyway!!)

There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
I thought Hot Fuzz was funny. Can't see why anyone would walk out tbh.
If you want to see a terrible film look no further than Smokin Aces.

I enjoyed Hot Fuzz, as did the fairly full audience I seen it with
I watched "American Splendor" in the cinema and thought it wa excellent but at least 15 people walked out of it.

I fell asleep twice in the cinema. One of the Star Wars (the 5th/2nd one) and the second Pirates of the Carribean. The things you do for girlfiends....

Only film I ever walked out on was Meet the Fockers, due to a combination of a stomach bug and the movie being God awful.
Personally I liked Hot Fuzz and Closer so don't see why people would walk out, that said I was a screening of Soy Cuba recently and people walked after 20 minutes, maybe after years of Capitalist oppression they just couldn't get into a good ol' Communist propoganda movie
That reminds me of people walking out of Zidane:a 21st Century Portrait, I mean what did they expect? A 2 hour thriller that culminates in Raul being unmasked as the mystery headbutter?
Oh, forgot about Brotherhood of the Wolf. Decent "leave your brain at the door" entertainment disguised as something deeper.

How about Dog Soldiers actually, quality low budget movie, or Me, and You and Everyone we Know, and (although people will probably disagree) I Heart Huckabees
Yeah, Dog Soldiers was pretty cool in a 28 days later kinda way.

It was a massive hit with the Wolf community, Bohs!!
Quoting years at random since 1975
Another film I love that I've just remembered is the 70s cult classic "The Warriors"
Completely cheesey, totally unbelievable but for some reason it just rocks...
