Bit bloody brilliant, isn't it?

Did it stay brilliant?

I quite liked it, but thought it was a bit of a poor relation to Battle Royale and Series 7: the Contenders.

I hated battle royale.

I liked Battle Royale.

Watched "tomorrow, when the war began" last night. I really enjoyed it, I'd heard good things about it (from here?) but something had been holding me back until then.

I thoroughly recommend it.

Holy shit! Someone else has seen Series 7!

I liked it, too. Even if "girl who rubbed the lotion" can't act for toffee.

I think I watched it a little while back (was it on film four or something?).

Can't really remember too much of it to be honest.

I've seen Series 7 and loved it. Sadly, everyone I've recommended it to has hated it.

Agree. Strongly.

I wanted Rule The World for our first dance song, but my BFF said she wanted it and even though she wasn't engaged at the time I let it go. And now she's getting married next year and not using it. Bah!

Have another wedding.

I toyed with putting "Oh well, next time" at the bottom of my last post but chickened out

I saw it (and BR) at the cinema, no less. Good old film festivals.

Need to track it down again. Recall it being intense, in the pre-Them/Strangers/Eden Lake era.

I've got it on DVD if you want me to rip and upload it.

Amazingly, it seems to have more advanced copy protection than every other DVD I own. I can't even get the cunt to play on a PC.

Um...

Trailer for Warm Bodies (due out next year)

Hearthly · **Joined:** 11th May, 2008 **Posts:** 13383

Killer Joe is out now, for purchase or evaluation, whichever you prefer.

I've had my eye on it for a while, got the NC-17 kiss of death rating in the States (a fairly straight 18 here), directed by the dude who did The Exorcist and The French Connection (and Bug!), William Friedkin.

It's supposed to be a little bit special.

LewieP · **Joined:** 29th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 7600

Yeah, I thought it was pretty fantastic.

Edit: Killer Joe that is.

The only film in those quotes being discussed as the object of the conversation. Series 7. Clearly.

Grim... · **Posted:** Fri Nov 09, 2012 14:57

I see references to Series 7, Silence of the Lambs, Battle Royale (I think), Them, Strangers and Eden Lake in those quotes.

And I still don't know if you liked Series 7 or not

Not as objects of thee conversation; they're all mentioned in reference to S7.

Even Zardoz understood.

To be fair, we can't know that from his reply.

L-LOL.

Movies: I'm really looking forward to the remake of Red Dawn. It looks like a film of MW2.

Mrs AE is out tonight so assuming I can get AE Jnr down at a sensible time I'll watch the last episode of Season 3 of Breaking Bad, and then watch Killer Joe.

I really liked 'Bug' so Friedkin has clearly still got a good set of film directing gonads.

LewieP · **Joined:** 29th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 7600

I'd say it's not in the same league as bug, but it's pretty great still. It's more of a dark comedy.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Nov 09, 2012 17:35

I'm pretty sure I understood.

Silence of the Lambs?

Killer joe is... interesting... I'm not sure what else to say really! I didn't get bored at all and it was very well acted. I didn't like it, but it was very good, if that makes sense.

Just watched Arlington Road. I must have been thinking of another film though because I was expecting it to be set in the gangster era with Tom Ganja. :shrug:

That's a great auto-correct, assuming that's what it is.

Probably not a word that's in most dictionaries by default.....
