I'm sure I'll get a kicking for this, but: 4 or 5 too many?

correct. one was too many

I thought 1&2 were brilliant

3 was poor.

4 was better, but their was hardly any of the original cast.

5 sounds a bit too far, even the people in 4 aren't in this one but the trailer looks funny.

Judge for yourself.

Watched "Hostel" on Saturday.

this weekend : forest gump, elektra, the next karate kid and black hawk down

also went to the cinema to see the covenant, which was ok but any film which opens with rob zombie as the backing track gets my vote

Wolf
Wild At Heart

"The Cameraman" by Buster Keaton. A classic, but sadly the beginning of the end for Keaton, as it was the first one he made after he signed with MGM. All of his other major work was as an indie.

Are there any comedic geniuses like Keaton anymore? And why not?

Also watched "Santa Fe Trail" with Ronald Reagan as George A. Custer, Errol Flynn as JEB Stuart. Wish I had a dime for every historical inaccuracy! However, Raymond Massey as abolitionist John Brown is spot on.

'The Last Waltz' Martin Scorceses' fantastic film about The Band

I have 2001: A Space Odyssey, Rock 'n' Roll High School, Mars Attacks!, The Butcher Boy and House of Sand and Fog waiting... I recently watched a ton of 70's classics -The Deer Hunter, Midnight Cowboy, Mean Streets along with The Misfits & Brokeback Mountain in a nice little screening room while housesitting and just feel like watching some fun ones.
Saw - The Last King of Scotland & loved Forrest Whittaker, as usual.
Saw - The Holiday & loved the popcorn. Jack Black was so damned funny in High Fidelity, everything else?
Saw - Bobby and didn't even notice it was a long one, thought Emilio Estevez and Christian Slater were good in it & the drug scenes were unexpectedly funny, somehow Ashton Kutcher was bearable in it. The reenactment of the famous photo in the kitchen is quite wrenching and the actor(?) portraying the busboy who rushes to aide Robert Kennedy in said photo is excellent.

I went to my local theatre today to see when Nicholsons The Departed was playing but it's gone - Mel Gibsons Apocalypto is playing non stop & I wouldn't pay one cent to that sorry bigot. I still go to Woody Allen films 'cause "the heart want's what the heart want's" but I'm not gonna support Mr. Gibson's private racist church. What a dick!

Watch it with the commentary tracks on, if you haven't already. Great stuff there.

http://www.jonhs.net/freemovies/soundtrack_to_war.htm iam not sure if the link will work but if you look at the google video and type in "soundtrack to war"you will get one of the best docos i have seen in years,it really puts a human face on all the boys and girls who are stuck in the middle of fighting a war they did not start,{and the bald baghdad bee-gees,well they steal the show,}be warned its not for the faint hearted and some of the troops think they are on x -factor,but i cannot tell you how moveing it is to see people so young lost in this man made hell... to recap the "soundtrack to war"is a film about the music the troops are listening to in the warzone,going into battle,

Beerfest (getting in the mood for some serious drinking in Dub)
