This.

I'd also recommend a couple of Thai efforts, Ong Bak and Warrior King if you fancy watching martial arts films with a Muay Thai twist.

Cheers , I'll look out for those, Ive seen a few of Chan's early films but not sure if Ive seen Drunken master.

Finally got round to watching LA Confidential. Damn Blu-Ray gave up just after an hour into it. Reported it as faulty and a replacement to be sent out - gutted as I was really enjoying it!

Wanting to start a Lovefilm trial. Was wondering what best trials around were, if anybody can point me in the right direction.

Google keeps bringing up expired ones.

Went to see Avengers with the kids on Sunday. It was very enjoyable. Lots of humour, not too serious, the kids laughed out loud a few times. They do look a bit silly, but plenty of shots of Scarlett Johansson's rear to keep things grounded in reality
They even managed to shoehorn in one of cinema's most anticipted comic book moments - too much excitement for a comic collector like myself.
Good job by Joss Whedon.

Started to watch Bad teacher. It was horrible and turned off after 10 mins.

Really enjoyed Cedar Rapids and really looking forward to finally seeing Avengers today.

Not normally a fan of superhero films but Avengers was fecking brilliant Didn't make the mistake of taking itself too seriously and there were a lot of genuine laugh out loud moments. Big fan of Joss Whedon so good to see him working on a big film.

Saw Avengers and it was good. Started a bit slowly but the end part was great viewing.

Also saw the new American Pie movie. Not so good with occasional laughs.

American Reunion IMO was the best of the lot. Lots of laughs and silliness

The Avengers is one of the best Hollywood blockbusters I've seen in quite a while.

American Pie was the best by a long way. A massive film for most people my age.
