The movies

[chicken]

i tend to buy DVD's, not go to the cinema.

last weekend i bought the last 'Pirates of the Caribbean' flick....mostly because of the genre and the eye-candy (orlando...oh dear!!).

AND:

28 Days Later.
that was loaned to me a while back and i loved it. so when i saw it in the "CHEAP, BUY ME!!" bin, i could not resist.
honestly, i don't understand why these horrific movies draw me in so :unsure:
sometimes i think i have an over-active cluster of empathy neurons!!!!

the sequel, IMHO, sucks in comparison. of course, most things pale when placed beside a work of art

i finally saw the new film version of "the hitch-hiker's guide to the galaxy" on telly a few nights ago. bits of the plot were different to the TV/radio/book versions and the ending was definitely different, but i still loved it - i think it kept a lot of the dark humour of the original versions.

I want to see Wes Anderson's 'The Darjeeling Limited'... but I didn't yet...

Entirely changing the subject, have any of you lovely non-Britons seen Wallace & Gromit? Either the film or the shorts. I think it got nominated for an Oscar when it was out, just wondered what a US audience made of it.

[Boxguy]

Yes, and yes. I first saw them when I was about 13 and enjoyed them immensely. I have the original three shorts on VHS.

If I remember correctly A Grand Day Out received a nomination, and The Wrong Trousers and A Close Shave won. I believe the feature won as well.
