So. Gravity. Amazing. Really great film. I was so tense for most of it, the suspense is handled brilliantly. Also it's beautifully shot, there are some really iconic scenes. And the soundtrack just held the whole thing together effortlessly.
Hunger Games was equally brilliant, if for completely different reasons. Despite being quite long it was well paced. It stayed very close to the book, with only minor irrelevant parts left out. The casting as with the first film was excellent, and all the actors did a terrific job of capturing the characters.
Very good day so far, now to go home and not watch Dr Who.
Oh and on the subject of changing as you get older, I haven't. Last time I was in Wales I saw a girl I'd been in a pantomime with at the age of 14. She recognised me straight away, and said I looked exactly the same (if slightly older).

I really enjoyed gravity - have not seen the hunger games but really want to!
What do you do in Cardiff Musha? I have moved to the South West recently and its quite nice here but I do miss London!

I wouldn't know bobs, haven't been out in Cardiff in about 8 years! runlikehell is the guy to ask.
I've heard it makes for a pretty good drinking game as well...

Is anyone watching the boxing tonight?
I have a feeling that Groves might be murdered.

Maybe if I can find a stream. Refuse to pay X amount of money to watch the fights. Tickets are too fucking expensive as it is.

My Sky bill is over £125 a month but I still paid...
I don't pay the bill but nonetheless, tickets are like £100 for furthest away... I'm pretty sure one cheap ass isn't going to effect them that much.
Deaf Spacker
Memb
Fair enough, knowing my luck I'll be fast asleep before 22:45.
If tickets were reasonable, I would travel and go to watch the fights. I just don't see how even when they're like the shitter fights that the tickets are still overpriced. When you are far away and you can't see much? Sure the atmosphere will be incredible, but to pay to watch it on tele? Nah, fuck that shit.

I totally understand where you are coming from but because there's no way in hell I'd go to see it in Manchester I have chose the next best option.
You watching it now? Who do you reckon will win Crolla or Foster?
I can't believe how little they weigh, I weigh more than this guy

Cheers fella, I'm sure it'll be ace. I saw them a few years ago in Brixton on the Doolittle tour and it was a good gig.
Only problem is with it being a Sunday night. My train's only going to get back to Bristol in the wee hours, so that's going to be a fun Monday morning at work. Getting too old for this...

Just made Andy watch Mama. He's now sat here with all the lights on and is insisting I check the wardrobes before we go to bed.
I've heard a fair about this film, worth a watch?

If you don't really like horror films or get scared easily, no.
Otherwise, definitely.
It's just been added to Sky Movies

Are you talking about Inception? Or like, real dreams?
Edit: Just realised I don't know the answer either way, so that was a pointless question.

No, there are no rules. You can dream about absolutely anything, including people you've never seen before, or merging two people you have
How much screen time does Nikolaj coster have or as most people know him as the true hero of GOT Jaime Lannister. It been on radar to watch but I tend to find horror films dull but Mama sounded interesting from what heard.
Plus I am the only one who reads word Mama and start singing the Phil Collins/Genesis song Mama

He's in it a fair bit. When I first saw it in the cinema I hadn't watched GoT so I had no idea who he was. When we stuck it on just now I was like, fuck it's Jamie!
As recent horror films go I think it's pretty good.
Bah, there's no hope for my dream to come true then
Edit: Fucking ridiculous stoppage, that fight should never have been stopped. Froch praising himself like he deserved it? Bullshit, the guy got ruined.
Yeah it's one of the more legit / terrifying ones for sure.

Agreed, Groves was up for it.

The UK version of the walmart food coupon-gate:
...she opened the till and gave me 32p with a confused look on her face haha. The way waitr0se (and other places?) tills work is if something's reduced AND in a 3 for 2 or BOGOF deal then it takes the pre reduction price off the total, leaving you paying minus money for some items."
Were you there for that ASDA offer? Basically a code got posted on HotUKDeals or something that entitled anyone who spends over £30 to get £30 off their shopping. This was obviously a mistake but ASDA had to honour it. Cue people buying £30.01 worth of groceries. It was madness.

Could pull a Cyanide? I have nowt planned so I'm gonna watch some films (Mama included) while gorging on some toast and tea while in my onesie. Plan.

Bit early for Christmas avatars isn't it?
Musha_Soturi

I beg to differ.
June, for example, would be too early.
September would also be too early.
Forum etiquette is usually that holiday avatars start from the beginning of the month that holiday is in. Therefore 1st December is an acceptable time to start using Christmas avatars.
So I watched Hunger Games last night (Really good, but I wish they played down the whole Twilight "I don't know what boy to choose" aspect. I guess I knew they wouldn't) then got baaaked and had vivid, fucked up dreams about an ex.
Today it going to be a weird day.
How're your weekends going, GAF?

My weekend has consisted of sitting around in my boxers getting drunk, playing games and watching sport so it's going pretty well.
