Favourite comment on ‘State of Play’ was from David Morrisey, who starred in the original, when he was asked if he’d been to see the remake, said ‘no, it would be like going to the wedding of an ex girlfriend you were still in love with’.

I quite like Kevin Costner, mainly because of Robin Hood which is one of the best crap films ever (even if it’s Alan Rickman who really makes it so) although also for ‘No Way Out’ which is great. I liked ‘Waterworld’ too, also in a ‘great crap film’ way.

Are you fucking serious? That is the most disgusting thing I have ever heard! Come here baby and let a man explain a little something to you about real journalism. She might as well been given his fucking shirts to iron.

Disgrace!

It’s one step up from “Well, I don’t know much about Journalism, but I do think kittens are aweully fluffy”.

Bastard fuckwits!!!!

Oh Ben, it gets even worse in State of Play. She’s not a gossip columnist. She’s a, … wait for it, …. BLOGGER gossip columnist. And the only saving grace is that there is no sexual tension between them either in the plot as written nor accidently between the two actors, whew!!! Russell Crowe spends most of the film teaching her about the importance of cross checking sources. She spends mist if the film trying to be Wunona

I actually like Matt Damon too. Tends to be good. And he was ace in Bourne(s).

You know who I hate? Johnny Depp! Damn you with your integrity, chiseled good looks, easy charm, worldly, disarming demeanor, excellent range and fine body of work. I hate you! I hate you so much!

1) State of Play. In the English series the female lead was a journalist and partner o the lead. Friends, who respected each other. In the American one she was a gossip journalist looking to leach of Russel Crowe’s excess credibilty. I think. I only saw a synopsis. But that conviced me I would never watch the film. Really really offensive. America: Ready for a black president. Not ready for a woman who isn’t plucky, witch or a whore. Grumble. Although State of Play was hardly a classic. It was really good though.

2) Oceans 11. I’m so boring.

3) Has he been in anything good? Nothing springs to mind.

4) Treasure Hunt. Damn you aeroplanes!!! Not even as good as The Da Vinci code. Not even that good.

5) Russel Crowe. Although he can be good I suppose. Occasionally. Oh yeah, Al Pacino. Should have been shot after Godfather II. Also, would have been a better ending.

There was very loud thunder right over our house today. It made the drug mules jump. (This a response to Wilf’s comment, not a complete non-sequitur.)

1. I don’t think I’ve ever seen BOTH a remake AND the original. But I’ll say the new version of Escape to Witch Mountain, although I think that was actually a sequel? Hard to say.
2. Mmpf. Cannot answer, for the same reason as above. I will venture to say that return to Oz is supremely superior to ‘The Wizard of Oz’.
3. Zandalee.
4. Red Rock West
(I don’t think I have ever seen a movie with him in it.)
5. Is Nicolas Cage considered a beefcake?
