I saw it the other day too, hilarious ain't it!

'I mean, technically she doesn't even need another chair!'

Funniest thing I've seen in a while. They really made up for the third series being a bit dull.

Easy A. Surprisingly funny and a great ode to the genre movies of my youth --- Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Can't Buy Me Love, Say Anything.

I liked Easy A too and I really like Emma Stone in general.

Saw Crazy Stupid Love last night. Very entertaining. Great characters, lots of good lines.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Not for the first time, but it's been quite a while and I'd forgotten most of it. It was a bit amazing to me to see how much my favourite humour has been influenced by their work.

The first time I got that film on DVD (it was actually in a boxset with Life of Brian, which I'd already watched with my parents [word to the wise: never watch Life of Brian with your parents]) I ended up watching it about six times in a fortnight. The Bridge of Death scene is still one of my favourite comedy moments now.

Quote from the producer: "We don't ever come out and say that everything we say is 100 percent. We know there are errors in the documentary, and we've actually left them in there so that people discredit us and do the research for themselves"

Kinda sounds like its trying to be a wooden spoon stirring the pot.

This is going to be one of those films that will get better with each viewing and utterly quotable in years to come. The subtle direction and heavy dialogue means that you don't catch everything on first viewing but as soon as I finished watching it I was finding myself chortling to myself regarding certain scenes and itching to watch it again. If you know nothing about it then it doesnt exactly sound tasteful or worthy of a watch: Four Lions is a 2010 British film. It is the debut feature from director Chris Morris, written by Morris, Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong. The film is a Jihad satire following a group of Jihadi homegrown Islamist terrorists from Sheffield, United Kingdom.

Oh Keanu Reeves is in it. It must be a crock. Well he is far better than Ethan Hawke was in the similarly themed Training Day. Decent crime movie although it fell into cliche in the last act. Shame Hugh Laurie is in it. Despite being a Brit myself, I find his acting and accent almost an embarrassment when he portrays a North American.
