Funny People

It's a film you have to watch once , great acting, it is a comedy drama, Adam Sandler can act amazingly see Punch drunk love for proof of that , it is a very good film, more of a drama tha a comedy though

Really? That was probably the worst film I saw last year, such a massive let down. A good majority of it was just the characters saying how thin Seth Rogen is now and how Adam Sandler's done some really awful films in his past.

I have no idea what the cinema version was like i saw the extended cut of the film , I just thought it was a very good film , I didn't think it would have made a good popcorn movie though

I saw that the dvd has both cuts of the film, me and a mate saw it in HMV and wondered whether the extended cut would be any better. Decided not as it was pretty painful to watch already. Let's just say the beers we snuck into the cinema were very much appreciated.

Speaking of "pick", I watched Pecker today.

Edward Furlong plays a young Baltimore-based photographer called Pecker, who's photographs of the everyday weirdos in his town are discovered by a New York art dealer. Before he knows it he's the next big thing in the Art world, but is his success worth losing the respect of his friends and family?

It's a decent film with quite a few good laughs. Though, one to watch with an open mind, as it's a John Waters film it's full of sexual innuendo and a bigger gay following than Glee.

I dunno, he pulled off the complete moron act in "Dude, Where's My Car?" quite well..
At least, I think he was acting..

Haha, true. To be fair to the bloke, he does a damn good job playing the serious role in Butterfly Effect.

Fucks sake, all of you need to watch Born of Hope right now! Just go on youtube and type it in. It's so fucking worth it.

I'm watching Spirited Away. I wish I could go to a land like that. I think I'll watch movies all night.

28 Weeks Later.
I've realised that 3/4s of my films contain some form of a romantic storyline; not what I need right now.

Rage and blood it is :yes:

I quite liked that film. Lots of people didn't, but I felt it kept a similar tone to the original. That and Imogen Poots is awkwardly attractive (in both features and name).
