Alatriste

Henry V (1989)

Haven't seen this once since I saw it in the theater. It's pretty nice but the common soldiers subplot is unnecessary.

Tell that to Ol'Will, because it's in the original play.

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Habbaku

Scanners.  Christ, that was bad, eh?
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Zanza

Book of Eli. Looked good, nice action scenes, but the plot didn't make any sense at all and was probably written by some Christian fundamentalist.

Ed Anger

Stay Alive...Let the Man Drive

You are dead to me.

I can only stand so much wooden acting, Canadian accents and a plethora of shotguns before I want to hurt myself.

Don't try any of the sequels.
Stay Alive...Let the Man Drive

Admiral Yi

Doubt.  A Catholic grade school in Boston in the 1960s or 70s.  Merryl Streep is the grim principal nun, Amy Adams is the sensitive teacher nun, Phillip Seymour Hoffman is the sensitive priest.  The acting is superb, the plot is virtually nonexistent.  Plays like a two hour actors' workshop.  Don't watch.

Kleves

I finally finished The Wire. Season 5 was, of course, very good,  but I think  that it may have been the weakest season, although that honor might go to Season 3.
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

2012 was just as terrible as I feared it would be.  And the black scientist was a total asshole.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

The Taking of Pelham 123, liked it a lot.

Chelmsford 123?

Old Channel 4 comedy show with Rory McGrath and Jimmy Mulville, I believe?

I saw one episode and always regretted missing the rest.
