currently on ITV2 - I'm watching it and crying my eyes out 🙂 Though I'm having trouble with Alan Rickman not being Snape...

ah yes, men are not supposed to be moved by emotion, except over machines... but at my age I'd definitely be post menopausal!

that film is so shit.

went to a premier screening with the GF in munich. it was a surprise screening where you got cheaper tickets, but didn't know what film would be shown.

really really bad.

watched K-Pax last night. that was equally awful.

I'm highly unamerican, but Schmaltzy I'll confess to, on this evidence - it took considerable restraint not to call up the woman I love and demand she marry me - despite her copious well founded objections 🙂

I like it but it's not as good as Notting Hill IMHO.

Well i like it, and Colin Firths moment of inspiration happened to me and made me the happiest man alive today.

Yes, Martine's quite nice, but who's the bit that Rickman fancies a dabble with? She's hawt.

that film is so shit.

I can understand it not being someones cup of tea, but I can't see how anyone could say it's shit, cos it's clearly not.

I think you protest too much.

This is nothing more than a cunning plan by simon to demonstrate his sensitive side to the ladies of the forum in the hope of a bit more torrid photo-bummage.

When I went to see this at the cinema, some daft woman, who looked like a Guardian reader, a couple of rows back started shouting "Yes! Yes!" during the ridiculous speech about "Ooh, you Americans are just horrible, coming over here and trying to shag my girlfriend" or whatever it was.

The film is a load of patronising, pathetic Richard Curtis bilge.

Actually. 😛

a very passionate afrikaans fiend of mine was describing her favourite scene in the movie ( the bit with the cards and wosserface from pirates of the carribean) and she could not speak for crying, that made me laugh more than any part of the film. which isnt to say that i don't enjoy the film, its fluffy lovely easy entertainment and we all need that once in a while.

No offense, slim, but your girl-fiend allowed herself to be emotionally manipulated by a cynical propagandist with a hidden agenda, using the most obvious tropes and hackneyed plot devices.

oddly, she does nothing for me at all - a nice girl, but no spark of attraction

she's my 2nd favourite after the lovely Keira 🙂

emotionally manipulated by a cynical propagandist with a hidden agenda, using the most obvious tropes and hackneyed plot devices.

that's as may be, but there has to be willing participation in a story - I was keenly aware it was frequently far fetched (apart from the unrequited love of Keira) but it didn't spoil my enjoyment or emotional involvement!

I love that film too, and cry my eyes out every time I watch it. Nowt to be ashamed of, I cry at the Help for Haiti video when they lift that little lad out of the rubble with his outstretched arms...

Damn! I'm wellin up just thinking about it!

"My Girl" has to be the biggest tear-jerker going. On the face of it, Macaulay Culkin getting bee-stinged to death should be cause for celebration, but when the little girl reads her poem at the end...

Oh jebus, here I go again... 😥

She does nothing for me too. Annoying smug smile and cheeks like a hamster. I would rather have a milk shake.

Apparently I'm a dead ringer for Andrew Lincoln (the bloke with the cards,who fancies Keira, him off Teachers and This Life). So this is my fiancee's favorite film.

I've had to endure it many times! 😥

I did actually start falling in love with one of the girls in our club in a similar way, though of course I wasn't stupid enough not to tell her, and I'm glad to say she turned me down very kindly 🙂
