Remedy that immediately! Anything by Jim Jarmusch is interesting at worst and at his best he is unmatched! This is one of his best. :tup:

Cheers. I'll take that, and a bag of popcorn. A Jim Jarmusch film I see. I liked Coffee and Cigarettes. :td:

Oh fuck! I just googled and found I have completely missed his latest release! It's a romantic vampire love story with Tilda Swinton! :ab: :ab: :ab:

Only released at Cannes so far but it has had good reviews. I NEED this NAOW!!1!! :lay:

Saw Zero Dark Thirty last night. The raid on bin Laden's house was well done but otherwise i found it a bit boring. Not helped by the mumbly dialogue "mumble mumble courier. Mumble mumble Laden. Mumble mumble motherfucker". I think I'm going a bit mutton.

Finally got around to watching Wreck-it Ralph. I'm sure it's not for everyone, but for me it was just pure joy. :D

I've just been playing some of them on the Disney website. They are nothing special of course, but I think that's probably better than attempting to do it in a big-budget way, which wouldn't fit with the fun arcade feel of the film.
