Most of the UNKLE stuff after psyence Fiction. It all went a bit too housey. What made it worse is most tracks had a banging last few bars. Should've been more of that!

Thought I'd go see the Expendables last Thursday night to avoid the emotional trauma of listening to Celtic's Europa League tie on the radio........I shoulda just stayed at home and listened to the fitba'.
Utter nonsense (to be honest I wasn't expecting a classic, but still....)Alice In Wonderland (Tim Burton version) - that was crap an aw! Only saw it 'cos my wee girl fancied it.
As for new music - rarely buy it these days purely to avoid disappointment.
Time for some new interests perhaps.

Went to see Iain Banks at the book festival, and he said his favorite of all his books was The Bridge. That was very disappointing as it is the only one I hated.
I am lining myself up for disappointment when the Battlestar Galactica film comes out. It can't possibly be as good as it should be.

Going out with Alison Stanley. I wanted her so bad for months. She was one of the most stunning girls I knew and we were friends but I wanted to be the other type of friend, oh how I wanted it.
Eventually it turned out so did she so we got together. She dropped her sense of humour and turned into a right nagging cow. And she was crap in bed.

you guys are right picky miserable sods!
24
Considering it was billed as gritty etc it's turned out to be a bit of a steaming turd.
24 isn't meant to be gritty AFAIK. It's more of a predictable yet enjoyable action series with an awesome main character.

Withnail and I is a work of flawed genius. I must have seen it 30 times and would watch it again tonight if it was on t' telly.
Maybe it's a generational thing, or perhaps it comes down to the viewers experiences or past lifestyle

Agree with monkey boy, very few of the albums I own are by bands that formed after 1997
My list:
Arcade fire
iPod touch (should have stuck with a classic)
Lost
Simpsons after about season 7
Underground hip-hop after listening to it for two years then realising it was really crap and derivative
Arbroath

Simpsons after about season 7
Are you kidding? Season 8 and 9 were my high points. See "22 Short Films about Springfield" and "You Only Move Twice"

Are we including Sports ?
Every Rugby World Cup since 1987. Such hope...
And the remake of Reggie Perrin.
I have to agree about Withnail, one of the best films ever, but yes maybe a generational thing.

Another vote for avoiding The Expendables. It's like a v poor made-for-tv Channel Five offering

WHAT?! Christ that is sad. In other words you both have absolutely nothing to say about music that would be of any interest to anyone!

Mark Haddon - "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time". How it got so many awards I don't know. Utter pap, and not even well researched.
