They're halfway there on that already, aren't they?
-
This is the crux of the matter, in my opinion.

A shit film is a shit film, in 2d or 3d... I saw "How To Train Your Dragon" in 3d in a proper cinema across earlier in the year (kids pestering). I had been very sceptical about the new breed of 3d films but this looked absolutely brilliant. I was very impressed and the film was good too.
-
Dreamworks, actually. Finally saw 'UP' last week - fantastic film in every respect.
-
Stanford University - Global warming is not bad for all It's an ill wind, etc...
-
Spirited Away - Complete shite. People rave over this?
-
The Damned United - pretty good, Michael Sheen is spot on, Clough comes across as an arrogant twat who was only successful because of Peter Taylor, which is not too far from the truth.
-
The above is why I tend to lean towards scepticism on the subject of AGW. Try looking up the 'Maunder Minimum'- a period of very low sunspot activity which coincided with the 'Little Ice Age'. And yet the officially accepted line is that variations in solar activity are not affecting the Earth's climate, an idea which flies in the face of logic and common sense.

100% correct.
-
Ah, but I derive a benefit from being employed - money. What benefit do I derive from a portion of my taxes being used to support those who choose not to work (and indeed subsidising their 6-month holidays in Goa)?
-
"Free Riders"? - "Parasites" might be closer to the mark. Can't be arsed to find paid work and expect the people who do go out to work to subsidise their self-indulgent lifestyle. I have more respect for an unmarried mother living on benefits in a sink estate than this bunch of hypocritical soap-dodgers.
-
In addition, they are often the type who continually bang on about mankind destroying the Earth and Gaia and whatnot without noticing the hypocrisy of giving birth to (in Fiona MacKeown's case) NINE squalling brats.

The Lord Street Old Bus Station Site Saga Continues
Jimcalagon replied to bishbashbosh's topic in Local News
I don't know about the roller skating but every time I went to the bowling at the castle Mona it was packed out. Even the manky upstairs with the sticky carpets. [edit for spelling] -
What, the giant ants film?

The Lord Street Old Bus Station Site Saga Continues

You see Slim, it's arrogant twats like this who give the majority of decent cyclists a bad name and who breed the antipathy. Paging Stuart T to the thread... -
I saw Rhumsaa the day before yesterday picnicing outside the DHSS offices on Market Street. No Rhumsaa t-shirt though.
-
Rich - he made me a nice cup of tea half an hour ago.
-
Absolutely right - bloody scary. That was the first thing I put on my home theatre setup when I got it a couple of years back.
-
In a Japanese film?
-
On the subject of pyjamas - a week last Sunday morning saw Rhumsaa in McDonalds with some ladies in pyjamas and a chap in a towelling dressing gown.
-
Forgot to add - the summerland cinema was even worse.
-
That is more due to the numbskulls who run the place - as an example, Watchmen, a highly anticipated film which topped the box-office charts around the world after its release was given ONE screening at the Palace. This screening sold out without being advertised. The Palace have no plans to show the film again. Plus the place is a grotty, smelly pit run by pensioners and staffed by surly rejects from Marilyn Manson's band.
