I understood all of that easily enough.

This is me talking. Not really a good example but I don't have any other videos really of me talking. It was a flood in my town by the way...

Picked this up in my local Poundland because I will buy almost any film for a pound and it's pretty awful. The acting is terrible and the plot is too but some of the wireless fight scenes are incredible and most done by an English guy who looks about 12!

Yep, I understood when you said hi to your neighbour.

Good. I'm glad we understand each other.

Yeah, that's not what I'm talking about. That dude is from Bucks County, not the city, and very far removed culturally from my neighborhood. If I can find a video of what I'm talking about I'll post it for you.

A quick rundown of movies I've seen in the past few days:

Prometheus
Finally saw this tonight. It's easily Scott's best movie since Blade Runner. Nice slow build up to the kind of remorseless tragedy that I'd expect from the old Scott. There better be a sequel in the works though because there were a few too many things left unresolved.

Brave
Very good, but not Pixar good. The animation was beautiful of course and it was nice to see a female-centered Pixar movie but it felt too much like a Disney movie to me. I did still enjoy it though, and it was a million times better than Cars 2.

Funny People
I feel like somewhere inside this mediocre movie was a fantastic movie trying to get out. If only Aptow could have decided what he wanted the movie to be about, it would have been great I'm sure.

21 Jump Street
Funny and enjoyable for what it was, though certainly not destined to be a favorite of mine. I remember having a conversation with my neighbors a while ago on the night they saw this movie and they were telling me how funny it was, even though they had no idea it was a remake of a TV show until I brought it up. It seems to me that you wouldn't get about 25% of the references in the movie if you didn't know about the TV show but I guess it's a testament to how funny it was that it works even at 3/4 power.

I think 21 Jump St is much better if you were in high school somewhere between the 90s and mid 00s.

Could be. I'd imagine it works best if you used to watch the show, like I did.

Maybe, but there were so many references to how it was different now than when they were in HS. Most of them had me on the floor.
