Arthur couldn't be worse than Excalibur. Eventually someone has to tell the Arthur tale right. On the other hand, the Merlin miniseries was a guilty pleasure.
The same goes for Robin Hood. I have seen the Errol Flynn version, the Disney version, and the Morgan Freeman/Kevin Costner version and none feel quite right.

just been to see RRRrrrr!, and it was quite good 
. not mastery, but nevertheless as good as Shrek 2. I recommend it. but don't expect something absolutely flattering - it's the kind of film you take girls to

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I watched "Field of Dreams" again today. Truly one of my favourite films. It's such a beautfiul, almost lyrical in a sense, movie. Just a all time classic for me.

Most anticipated for me is Fahrenheit 9/11.

no...but after hearing it was worse than Matrix 2 I have absolutely 0 motivation to watch it. Or even consider watching it actually. like 100% times 0 motivation to even consider caring about considering watching it.

Just watched Gangs of New York last night, nothing like I was expecting as I didn't really know what to expect as I thought it was about gangsters, not particulary a good film, I'd watch it if there was nothing else on but I wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again.

Why is that when i read the bit about the magic wand, i was thinking of re-doing harry potter as soft porn?
Something appears to be very wrong with me. Probably all the awful tv i watch while on vacation...

I thought Hero was a little bit too artistic. especially when the fended off all those arrows. didn't quite have the same impression on me as crouching tiger did (which just blew me away). but other than that, it was really a beautifully done movie.
can you say that? beautifully done..? sounds funky. therefor I shall use it! arumph!

What, what, what, what, WHAT?
So the actor is in it, but he is not playing the role of the android?
Bah!

DD Personally i would recomend Yes Minister, but it is very very British so if your not a fan our very dry humour probably not to good for you, of course there is always the wonderful fawlty towers 
Seen Spiderman 2 and King Arthur recently, first was ok, not as good as the second but still a good flick. King arthur was great imo, loved all the English accents as well

Scary movie is one of the very few films i actually couldnt finish. It just seemed a huge waste of time after a while.

I saw good will hunting a few days ago, and I must say, that movie just keeps on baffling me with its sheer quality. even poo poo affleck manages to do his part to a satisfaction (never push this mans abilities beyond the side kick role).
then I saw one hour photo also a few days ago, and it strikes me that robin williams isn't all that bad. the guy can actually act despite all those sad childrens movies he's done.

Saw a coupla movies in the past few days...
Super-Size Me- Brilliant, frightening, and hilarious documentary. Everybody should see this one. 9/10
The Stepford Wives(2004)- Some extremely funny one-liners and other clever bits, but very predictable and inconsistant. 7/10
Shrek 2- Much as I enjoyed some of the hidden gags (plus the giant gingerbread and puss-in-boots), it was more of the same, and I disliked the original to boot. 6/10
Last Exile Vol.1- Brilliant, visually stunning anime! It has such great emotional depth to go with the great action stuff. 9.5/10
City of God- My God, this flick is a modern classic. Amazing directing, superb acting, engrossing storyline, almost Tarantino-esque narrative structure... help, I'm in love... 10/10

Why would you wanna see - let alone own - really bad movies?
Saw "all the president's men" this weekdn for the first time. It has the reputation of a classic and it sure is! Only the ending was a little... abrupt.

There is a third Riddick movie out for rent called Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury. It is an animated feature directed by Peter Chung who was involved with Aeon Flux and Reign the Conquerer...
