[thenew7up]

Yay! Have you already seen it or were you going to take a chance? It's excellent anyway, and I love Gael Garcia Bernal *swoon*
I haven't bought it yet, I'm waiting until I can afford the £40 for the Almodovar box set.

There are some very funny things there! You have to plough through the junk, but there are some gems!

7. a quote

'The purpose of life is to live it, to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.'

-Eleanor Roosevelt-

[thomdyke]

The Big Lebowski cannot be praised highly enough...

The Dude Abides.

[thomdyke]

1. Fargo (following a Cohen Brothers theme here...)
2. Primo Levi - The Drowned and the Saved
3. Matthew Good - Canadian genius, whom I cannot speak highly enough of. Or if you are feeling frisky, Madreblu are well worth a download

5. Sausages...
6. www.trashbat.co.ck :-D
7. 'We are creatures of air,
Our roots in dreams and Clouds,
reborn in flight.
Goodbye...'

[titchy_mitchy]

All hail the Cohen's.

*LOVED Nathan Barley*

All hail Chris Morris!

[thomdyke]

Felt slightly ambivalent about Nathan Barley...moments of genius, but will be interested to see how they spin 6 episodes out of it. Shall have to sit around waiting for the 2nd series of Peep Show to come out on dvd :-D

[titchy_mitchy]

I kept seeing "idiots" everywhere the next day, it made me cringe in a giggly way. I really enjoyed the show, but (correct me if I am wrong) it is pretty different to any of Chris Morris' previous work.

And, yes, can't wait to see Peep Show again, tis fantabulous.

[robotprostitute]

1. Film - For pure escapism and fun, Empire Records.
2. Book - Looking for Alibrandi, by Melina Marchetta. I related to it a lot when I was about 13 and I still read it now, for comfort!
3. Musical artist, song or album - Richard Cheese. Introduced to me by a mate, my life has never been the same!
4. LJ user - not really a user, but the http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=m15m community is very good.
5. Dinner - Honey and mustard chicken breast with potatoes and veg - mmm!
6. Website - http://www.chavscum.com
7. Quote - "Better to be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt" - possibly Abraham Lincoln, but I'm not sure!
