I so miss the young Katie Holmes.  What a cutie she was, before she became a beard.

I want to get a box set of a TV series I haven't watched yet from the second hand store. Game Of Thrones, Breaking Bad or A. N. Other?

Avatar the Last Airbender - 8.9 rating on imdb and is surprisingly adult in themes.


btw, for other suggestions imdbs list of 40 show to watch before you die http://www.imdb.com/list/RNdurJcLRc0/?ref_=tt_rls_1 (I endorse everything on that list I've watched except the newsroom)
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

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.

Safety Not Guaranteed. Fun movie.

Breaking bad is at its last season, I think.  Why not wait one more year and buy the whole thing?
GoT is very, very good tv.  3 seasons so far, at least 3 more coming.

Better yet, watch it on Netflix.

Neither.  Wait until both those series have finished then pick them up and watch the whole thing.

While you are waiting you pick up Bablyon 5 if you can find it - then send it to me after you finish watching it.  I cant find the damn thing anywhere without paying a ridiculous amount of money.

Or get Farscape. Since you enjoy Dr Who I presume the muppet work (which can be a bit bad in the first season) won't scare you off.

Good suggestion.  That used to be on Netflix but it is now gone,  along with Yes Minister.  I hate when that happens.

I got it, but I have one or 2 discs damaged.

Let's see if I can find replacements, then provided a 30 page contract + shipping fees or a trip from you to my village (if you wait for me to visit Vancouver, you'll be in a nursing home by then :D ), I'll lend them to you ;)

I saw State of Play yesterday.

Predictable, decent acting, clichés, Rachel McAdams. 4/10
The TV series is far, far better. It also features (another) magnificent Bill Nighy performance :mmm:
Let's bomb Russia!

McAdams alone makes a film at least worth a five.
