Sorry, but you are totally wrong.

Watched The Adjustment Bureau last night. Bit of a girls film.

How can i be wrong? It's just an opinion. I think it's just over hyped trash.

It's an hilarious coming of age romp.

But like any film on the planet, people have views and opinions and i just happen to to think it's dreadful. I appreciate it that you like it though. Just isn't for me. :)

The bank job on film 4 now

Starring Jason statham

Pretty predictable plot but good none the less

Also went to watch the new Harry potter film a few days ago and IMO it didnt overwhelm me like all the publicity said it would, then again I suppose you have to watch all the others to get into it, which I have not.

Don't take it personally. I just like using the word 'romp'.

I was having a chat with a mate of mine a few weeks back about special effects in 80's movies and the one that really sticks out for me as being ahead of it's time, is An American Werewolf in London,in the scene where David changes for the first time in the London apartment. If you haven't seen it, you will have not a clue what i'm talking about. ha

I think the effects in The Thing are awesome too:

I actually prefer these kind of animatronic effects way more than any CGI green screen rubbish. It was a real art form back then. Nowadays it seems the bigger the budget, the better the SFX.

definately, still holds up today.

Tron was pretty good, empire strikes back, Abyss, Blade Runner all spring to mind as pretty good for the times.

Finally saw PAUL last night. I'm a fan of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost but this film was disappointing with only a few mildly funny moments.

Also watched DRIVE ANGRY which was OK but I was sleeping by the end of it.
