The Daily Express is only read by grannies and closet neo-nazi's. So f_ck everything they say.

'i'm coming back here...i'll buy this place, and install a f_cking jukebox in here...liven you stiffs up a bit...' or 'jan has a quick go at spot-the-fan'

Tropic Thunder It’s a rambling half-baked mess that flirts with being the worst film ever made but somehow ends up being a slightly more annoying version of Speilberg's '1941'. Most of the laughs are in the fake ads and trailers at the start and Tom Cruise's potty mouth ranting - although his 'fat white guy dancing like a black guy' is the absolute opposite of funny. It makes Zoolander look like a masterpiece.

I work at a University and know for fact that about half of the students are only there to please their parents or because they didn't know what else to do. And so they drift through their first couple of years, wracking up thousands of pounds of debt only to drop out at the start of their third year. I asked one of these students why they came to Uni when clearly they couldn't give a monkies about getting a degree and they said 'when we we're doing out A levels one week we were all told to fill out our UCAS forms', on mass, no thought given to whether they actually wanted to go

water's a drug.

Project Grizzly If you wanted a double bill of documentaries about strangely effeminate nut-jobs that spend their time hanging around with grizzly bears then this would set you up nicely for the much meatier and affecting Grizzly Man. Project Grizzly is the slight and silly tale of a guy building himself a bear-proof suit so he can go and wrestle with bears. He never gets to live out this dream but their are laughs to be had watching him getting repeatedly run-over, thrown off mountains and hit in the face with logs in order to test the strength of his robocop-like suit. Heart-warming, in so much as you just know if it wasn't for this crazy scheme, he would most likely be killing strangers and making a suit out of their skin.

thats an old cheech and chong gag, as is the cutlery will make a 'ching, chang, chong' noise. Which is of course a bit rich coming from them. oh those crazy racists, what will they say next?

Scotland, Ireland and Wales have always been small change but the English just can't shake the memories of its glorious empire, so we think that we are still an international player when we're just a has been, a toothless and ultimately pointless nation. When the Americans and Russians produced hydrogen bombs and stepped up the cold war, we desperately wanted to keep up but didn't have the money or ex-members of the nazi party to build such a device. So we strapped two atomic bombs together and set them off somewhere in the pacific and told the world it was our hydrogen bomb . Since then we’ve just become deluded and bitter and America's bi-itch. All the kudos we earn't during WW2 has been p1ssed against the wall. And everyone hates us, especially me.

my bad. well, Cutty was still awesome. that whole subplot was very reminiscing of 24/7 by shane meadows but that time was bob hoskins trying to reform kids on the streets of nottingham. ace film. fave moment in season 3, the brief glimpse we catch of a certain ball-busting member of the top brass, enjoying a drink, at the gay bar. I've gotta say, even though the wire is more consistently great than the soprano's, when the soprano's is really on fire, there's still nothing that can beat it. the last episode of season 2 (the fishing trip with pussy) and episode 3 of season 3 (the bloodiest and slipperiest hit you'll ever see) are still the best two hours of tv I've ever seen.

I've said it before and its still the case, for a Govt that claimed to be leading the world in tackling climate change, agreeing to the third runway is a back-down, neigh, betrayal, of seismic proportions. We deserve to be the laughing stock of the planet (and quite a few moons/deathstars). We've just surrendered all our moral high-ground, the next time we ask India and China to comply to emmission targets I hope they tell us to go phuq ourselves.

I've just signed up, does any one have any advice on how to get started and whip my bunch of inadequates into shape?

On second listen it sounds very good. About half of it sounds like the third cLOUDDEAD album (that never was), and that's praise indeed.

here's my childhood, right here, I would even eat the really horrible gum.

coffee + cannabis (my fave drug combo at the mo) is the new lsd coffee makes me well sketchy and gives me a 4 second memory. Who are you people, get out of my mind?!

That was a great programme, a kind of Twin Peaks for kids. I watched a few episodes on some torrent site a few months ago and it still looks pretty good. I've just finished season three of The Wire and its still ridiculously brilliant. Its getting more overtly political as it goes on (just as the US were getting bogged down in Iraq). Special mention goes to Method Man for his portrayal of a reformed gangster struggling to open a boxing club to give some of the young 'uns discipline and respect. Once I finish all five seasons I'm moving onto Generation Kill!, written by the same guy as The Wire but this time its everyday life in Iraq for US troops. And its meant to be even better than The Wire!

i don't believe its possible to defeat terrorist organisations with violence (this just ensures further echoes of violence) or you become bogged down in occupations, which will always fail in the long run. talking to them must be a major part of finding lasting peace. just look at afghanistan where the top brass have admitted that there will be no military victory in a traditional sense, that they must open talks with the Taliban in order to reach any position where British forces can withdraw.

she's rude and horny!

Had a bit of a post-xmas music binge and haven't given any of them a proper listening yet but I'm liking - the new animal collective album - lovely and swirly, like (alt)sitting in the middle of your fave (alt)tornado the new max tundra album - great in small bursts, but prolonged listening will unravel your mind deerhunter - like a punchier, less bloated flaming lips flaming lips / christmas on mars OST - just like fl circa soft bulletin Hercules and love affair - coketastic disco funk from DFA Jay Retard - lo-fi indie/punk, just like how mumma used to make it. Pavement - a bootleg of a gig on their wowee zowee tour, great stuff, reassuringly ramshackle

so you're comparing the Palestinians to vermin and saying they should be eradicated? Wow, you could make Putin blush. Your allegory is dangerously warped, surely this is much more accurate... 'You're homeless and your imaginary friend tells you that you have every right to live in a particular house. You go there and find other people living in it so you get your rich uncle to get you weapons and muscle and you try to throw them out. They refuse to leave so you eventually lock them in the cellar. They despise you and lash out when ever possible so you cut off their power and make them live in their own sh1t. You decide enough is enough and go down their and open fire on the ring leaders, but, because you've crammed so many people into such a tiny space, you invariably hit as many children as you do targets.' Are you - a) merely defending yourself, b) acting like an out-of-control psychopath with an enormous chip on your shoulder? Feel the love in the room, amen! No you can't, so as history has told us many times, you don't fight them head on, you use guerilla tactics which leads to vicious reprisals and an enduring, nasty, dirty form of conflict. 'Surgical Warfare' is just a modern day lie, there will always be innocent victims when you use heavy weaponry in built up urban areas, especially as over-crowded as the Gaza strip. And even a modern day saint would struggle not to get caught up in the need to get revenge. Pretty much the only thing holding the Palestinians together at the moment must be their hatred of Israel and the US and, of course, us. We're told that this is Iran stirring up trouble by smuggling arms to terrorists. Where would Israel be if the US hadn't armed them to the teeth, oh sorry, i mean generously bestow countless billions of dollars worth of military aid upon them? i can't claim to be an expert but wasn't the six day war essentially Israel castrating the region, keeping them in their place, screwing with them? i agree that it must be terrifying living in range of Hamas rockets, knowing that you could be killed or maimed at any moment with no warning. But the Gaza strip is rapidly turning from the biggest open prison in the world to the biggest death camp in the world. Tell me that Israel aren't essentially doing to the Palestinians what the Nazi's did to them.

A slight contradiction there! You either want to stay in the premiership or you let Tony build your team, you can't have both as I think WE ALL KNOW. LOL at portsmuff :smt081

harsh, but in this case, completely justified lets hope fans rip the p1ss for the rest of the season

i can't even begin to unpack the stupidity and xenophobia of that comment so I'll assume it’s the work of a troll. Israel is a rogue state that must be stopped. For a national that bore the brunt of one of the worst atrocities in the history of mankind, I'd hope that Israel could show some compassion and understanding for transient, homeless and set-upon peoples. But no, like the victim of the bully who can't wait to find someone smaller than them to pass the violence onto, Israel is going about wiping the Palestinian people off the face of the earth. Would it be so bad if Iran nuked Israel, I mean, really? OK, that was my troll comment of the day (or the first, at least) But in all seriousness, what is going to stop these armed to the teeth psycho's from doing what the hell they please?

there you go, you don't need to worry about gory effects. on a tangent, Christian Bale insisted that the script for the new Terminator film relies on character and not cgi so that it could be performed on a stage. it just shows that its all about good ideas and good characters. and to be creepy it just needs to be well shot and cut, and not seeing whats happening but using good sound effects is often more effective, as saintlard points out. funny games is one of the most disturbing things i've ever seen, and its because the bad things are happening just out of shot or in the next room. then again, really good visual effects (like the fire extinguisher bit in Irreversible) can still leave me reeling occasionally. and once in a while you get great characters, a great story and amazing special effects all rolled in together, like in The Fly.
