Saw it for the first time last night round me mates'. Great film. Funny and clever. Best film I 've seen for a long while.

I dunno, I loved Spaced so I was really looking forward to it, but SOTD left me feeling kind of flat. Like a lot was left on the cutting room floor or something.

"It's not hiphop, it's electro..." etc

I thought it was good too; nothing groundbreaking but certainly entertaining & well executed.

Huh? When browsing my g/f's brother's massive DVD collection, I have always passed on that one, deeming it as "probably sucky". Now I'll give it a view.

Yeah it's pretty good. But movies that start out as a almost pure comedy then try to do some "real" horror, ending in humorless depression just seem kinda odd to me. But I still liked it mostly. Just a bit inconsistent in theme.

While on the subject of funny movies, it took me way too long to watch 40-yr-old virgin and I would be remiss if I didn't try to prevent the same fate for others. Watch it. Consistent, sustained laughter from beginning to end. Hard laughter. I would rate it among the funniest ever.

Saw wedding crashers right afterwards and didn't laugh once. Not... once.... It's a shame how some movies can ruin others like that.

Don't watch many movies these days
