What finger thing? I either didn't notice or forgot.

The way they order the drinks, the German way was different than the British way.

I saw the Inglorius Basterds (sp?) for the first time this weekend. An entertaining movie, but I think it's slightly overhyped.

I really loved the scene in the café. It was intense, and I'd never noticed the finger thing before

Which scene? And what finger?  :huh:

It was how the Basterd posing as a German officer betrays himself - holding up three fingers for drinks the English way rather than the German way (using the thumb).

Have a I mentioned recently how the Irish-German actor playing the Brit spy posing as German does a very good just noticeable enough English accent?

Boobs - A documentary following some guy in Kentucky to truckstops where he stares at white trash cleavage and eats grits.

ok not really, but close... a great many strippers and average women talk about their boobs and how they love or hate them, some get implants, some don't... some get reductions, or cancer induced mastectomies even. An OK doc that makes a point that is no surprise to anyone. Boobs are important!

Question: from a German perspective, would that finger-thing have been noticable enough to be a "dead givaway" that the guy was really an English person?

Seeing the movie the first time I thought that it looked odd the way he ordered, but initially didn't pay too much attention to it.

2012 Not nearly enough Mayan :tinfoil: a bit too much father/son schmaltz, but otherwise a lot of fun in the action sequences.

Glad they didn't go with the completely over the top alt. ending you can see in the extra features. :bleeding:

Nice Woody Harrelson cameo.

3 :tinfoil: + 3 :blush: + 1 :johncusack: = 7 Super volcanoes with really bad aim outta 10

WHAT THE FUCK!? There's an alternative ending that's even worse? How is that even possible? No, don't tell me, divine intervention, right?

Caught Shutter island, it was OK I guess. Not as predictable as everyone says. At least not to me. :) Nice to see that Dicapro is finally showing some signs of ageing.

Swedish public service, SVT, is showing Akahige and Nora inu as part of a Kurosawa jubilee/anniversary. Haven't seen any of them and I'm looking forward to it.

Hey Marti, how many Polocks does it take to watch a DVD?
Two;  one to watch, and another to spin the DVD player really, really fast.
