h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Seen "Oliver Twist" and it was excellent. I cried (again) for poor caring Nancy.

As we were leaving, there was a queue forming for "Wallis and Gromit" which we joined the back of, and cost me another £8.50, but my son enjoyed it.

There was a trailer for yet another "super hero" film can't recall the title but he's the son of two super-heroes and goes to a school for teaching superheroes.

One to watch out for then

I think the superhero film is called Sky High. It looks similar to Spy Kids.

I'm only tempted to see it because it has Bruce Campbell in it

That's the one!

I thought I recognized Kurt Russell as the dad...

yeah got to see sky high....it'll probably be cheesy for the kids..but its got to be done... i've heard it likened to the incredibles... so we'll see?

i LOVED the old batman series... so corny.. and the film they made once.. the scene where batman has to dispose of a ticking bomb about to go off.. everywhere he runs to chuck it there are innocent creatures in the way... he couldn't even risk killing the ducklings.. no...... that was class humour

The first annual (hopefully) Toronto Tibet Film Festival was a great success. The event was produced by the Canada Tibet Committee and a group of outstanding volunteers, who brought the thing off without a hitch and helped to maintain a wonderful festival atmosphere throughout.

The venue was the beautifully restored Bloor Cinema in the heart of Toronto, Canada, a fine old Art Deco cinema with a big balcony, plush seats and the all-pervasive smell of buttered popcorn, just the sort of place to relax for nine hours, or so, and watch a lot of films about Tibet.

The festival committee selected movies which would take the audience beyond the image of Tibet as a country suffering under a brutal Chinese occupation - which it is, of course - and give people the chance to see aspects of Tibetan culture which they may not have encountered before.

To that end, the film schedule included powerful documentaries, such as 'Satya: A Prayer for the Enemy', in which Tibetan nuns describe their resistence to China's repressive policies and the terrible sacrifices that many of them have had to make; 'Travelers & Magicians', the second wonderful feature film from Bhutanese director Kyentse Norbu; and 'The Yogis of Tibet', a fascinating look into the mysterious lives of some of Tibet's great yogis.

Nanny Mc Phee is worth a family outing

went to see nanny mc phee... yes its very good....cried a lot towards the ending...all very magical stuff, plenty of laughs that even the little ones will understand....

loved the over the top acting by lady from acorn antiques [can't remember her name now] they were all great though.....

Just watched Blair Witch again.

Not as scary as first time round, when I watched it in full atmosphere; dark, alone in a silent house (well, flat actually!).

Still a terrificly original film, though, executed to perfection!

Went to see corpse bride yesterday..loved it n so did josh n ged.its not as creepy as nightmare aknd very funny in places

I watched House of a 1000 Corpes the other night

Brilliant if you love psyco, mad as hatters films

want to see saw 2 but no one will go with me

I want to see that

Have you seen that Blair Witch, documentary type film advertised?
I can't remember the name, but it's a man with a video camera who goes around peoples houses and films killing them

I've just watched Hide and Seek. There're some bleedin' messed up families.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure you don't mean this, but Man Bites Dog actually fits the description quite well.

But you're referring to a new film, I guess...

The Last Horror Movie, it's called.

saw corpse bride... it was ok enjoyable enough but our one collective complaint is that the songs were so weak that it would have been better not to try the musical approach...

in this matter the nightmare before xmas is far superior because the songs were so good in that...

animation was good the voices very good.. didn't recognise jane horrocks character though...

i'd rate nanny mc phee higher than this.. possibly i expected too much of corpse bride and not enough of nanny mc phee which was a really wonderful film...

i'd like to see saw 2 too...
