Ah, I see. How come they are mutually exclusive? Can't you have a strong interest in both?

A lot of people feel music >>> films.

I hold them both in the same regard, I find it hard to choose between them.

My Sister's Keeper. I have a guilty pleasure for sappy movies.

Also, Wall•E.

I watched Casablanca last night with my mother.
Fantastic film. There's this one scene when they film Bogart's shadow moving around and getting something out of the cupboard which was effing brilliant.

Certainly not awful at all but it's not a patch on Shaun Of The Dead (which was obviously a big influence).
I agree with everything except for the last sentence. I don't know what being "a patch on" means but I assume you are saying Shaun of the Dead is much better. I view both as pretty average films...

It's okay. Nothing more. Not exceptionally funny, emotional, thrilling, or min-bending, was it?

It wasn't emotional or mind bending but it was funny and emotional, as well as very entertaining.

EDIT: Although Hot Fuzz was better.

But yeah Hot Fuzz was a blast!

I just realised I messed what I said up, I said it wasn't emotional then claimed it was emotional. FML.

But yeah, I hold them both pretty close to each other. But Hot Fuzz was just that much better.
