Chronicles of Narnia (first one). Meh. Most entertaining bit is the final battle and the fact the good guys use child soldiers.

Get a feeling this material would've been much better if the movie had been done by brits. Seems to me they try too hard to implement a Hollywood epic fantasy template to it.

Thanks, I feared as much, I'll give it a spin so to speak. :)

Don't you have a 9,000 word review for the black Annie version to comma splice?

No.  If I'm going to see any of musical to come out this Christmas, it's Into the Woods.  Because I'm racist.

Top Five was pretty good. Shame no one is seeing it.

I do not want to see Selma. My mother said: Selma who?

I keep refusing to re-watch it. My memory of it is so perfect that I don't want to re-watch it just in case my childhood is ruined again.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.
