Question:
What with someone asking what are the first DVDs you'll be receiving this new year, I wondered what films (if any) people had seen today.
Today I've seen, in this order:
Kissing Jessica Stein
Them!
Sting 2
Sweet Sixteen
Don't Look Back
The Majestic
Quite a full day of movie watching, but I was probably one of the few people up at 8am this morning! (And without a hangover!)
mmm watched Signs last night (didnt finish till about 12.30) so suppose that counts as first film i saw this year!
Today saw Attack Of The Clones and Carry On Cleo, and was going to watch Virus but i'm in work 2mo so gotta sleep!
I haven't seen a film today. As I was too busy with playing Metroid Prime :)
Haven't seen any films, saw bits of Platoon but thats about it.
Watching Pushing Tin on bbc1, was sweet 16 any good??
The Producers (classic) and Fox freebie What Lies Beneath (a lot better than I expected).
Desk
saw the last half of American Werewolf in Paris on BBC Choice tonight :ho-hum:
Army Of Darkness is the only I've watched so far. I'm going to work my way through the extras so it could be a while before I watch another :lol:
dead man :smokin:
Saw Rush Hour 2 on moviemax:clap:
It was the Bomb:rocker: :rocker:
Watched Man Bites Dog Criterion this arvo and watched a bit of Free Enterprise on Sci Fi- enjoyed it so much I stopped watching and ordered the DVD from Play- £4.49!
Only have £2 on my card but that can soon be rectified and it aint out till Monday:p

Sweet Sixteen was excellent, very raw and brutal with exceptional performances from the unprofessional cast. It's now near the top of my favourite films of 2002. On the downside it's not the most original film - numerous others have dealt with the same issue, children becoming involved with the criminal underworld (recent release City Of God springs to mind), but Sweet Sixteen has more of a familiar scene as it's about British kids and in the present. Perhaps Ken Loach's best work in about ten years.
Ghosts of Mars and Resident Evil commentaries, very fun!
Will finally get to my sealed DVDs of Vanilla Sky and Minority Report.
We* were watching Blade II at midnight so that's kinda my first film, but if I can get up the cinema today or tomorrow then I'm going to make the Two Towers my first full film of the year. Been too ill to go out and see it before so now I'm getting better I want to get out to see it ASAP!
*my brother a friend and myself, not the royal we.
started with the last four episodes of the sopranos season 3 followed by goldmember and then yet another viewing of donnie darko.
Fiancée bought me E.T. DVD, will more than likely watch 2nite..saw Billy Elliot last night..was that a young Emily Dingle as Julie Walters daughter?
The Shawshank Redemption
The last of my 5 christmas gift DVD's I had to see.
I watched Jaws and later on Signs.
Watched the "Classic" Earth Girls Are Easy on Sci-Fi :norty:
and then The Lavender Hill Mob but fell asleep (Good job its on Disk;)
Edit: While watching EGAE, my girlfriend mentioned she recognised the blond alien, when I told her it was Jim Carey, she was rather disgusted!! as she used to fancy him when she saw it years ago...now she just went eeeewww!!:lol: I thought it was funny....she didnt!
On New Year's Day we watched the excellent Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course followed by Tea With Mussolini on C4.
The only film I watched on new years day was The Good Girl and very good it was too.
I watched Reign Of Fire and Trapped yesterday on dvd and Billy Elloitt on TV.
I started watching season 7 of ST:TNG. :thumbs:
I watched Life Or Something Like It which was a perfectly pleasant rainy afternoon kinda movie.
Watched a bit of ET yesterday and taped the rest......then watched LOTR:TTT in the evening.
First DVD watched this year was Star Trek The Motion Picture - Director's Cut. Picked it up in WHSmiths for under £9 the weekend. Fell asleep just after they entered the cloud. Still found some scenes a bit slow and/or overlong, but will try to see it all the way through over the weekend. Shame Kirk's 'Oh My God!" after the transporter failure got cut - cracked me up evey time I heard it! :)
