That was the final straw for me. No more Millar after that.

This is like the whole "you didn't build that" thing.

I'll point out that Northern Ireland is part of Ireland, while being separate from the Republic of Ireland, so referring to movies set in Northern Ireland as taking place in "Ireland" is correct. Also, while Northern Ireland is also part of the United Kingdom, it's not a separate country in its own right.

I've been racking my brains all day to think of my first cultural disappointment - it was at the back of my mind, but I couldn't remember it. Then it hit me.

Scariest moment in a Fincher film for me is in Zodiac - the mother and baby in the car, on the highway. That whole sequence is just perfectly done. Especially the bit at the end, where it fades out, and fades back in… but where's the baby?

It made no sense at all to me. Up until now I thought I imagined it.

Aw. The bit where Short Round falls through the bridge never fails to crack me up.

The Tree of Life.

'Hannibal' the book may not be very good but it's nowhere near as bad as 'Hannibal Rising'. That book is awful, it's as if some crazy fanboy wrote Hannibal fan fiction and somehow got it published.

And the character he plays in these movies is named after the character he played in the 1990s TV series of Pride and Prejudice.

It's interesting that this year there seem to be a fair few big movies which haven't done particularly well in America, but have done extremely well elsewhere. Pirates of the Caribbean has made much less than the previous movies in the US, but in total it's made a billion dollars. Kung Fu Panda 2 has done something…

I've heard of that, they had lunch one day and came up with A Bug's Life, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo and WALL-E, or something.

No Belle & Sebastian fans on this site? *weeps*

I love that bit in "The Long Goodbye" when the gangster starts saying "Hey, everybody take their clothes off!" and how his henchmen react. Schwarzenegger looks really shocked, I guess he wasn't expecting it at all. It's funny to see Arnold showing a genuine emotion.

Very very far from the worst Best Film Oscar given out in the last decade. A Beautiful Mind is fucking awful and you didn't see all of this whinging when it won.
