No. If the film actually centred around Jake Lloyd's Anakin in a different story, it would've been a passable kid's adventure movie. He wasn't the best child actor ever but he did what he could with some schlocky writing.

My dad saw them twice. Once during the Green tour as they were about to go mega and it's one of his all-time favourite gigs. The second during the Monster tour in Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, and he says it was crap (but mostly for sound reasons).

REM. I think the band have pretty much said they're not going to do anything more, so it's probably 100% a goner.

Given that Crazy-8's been in a few episodes now, and that beatdown is sure to have soured him a little, I wonder if they're planning on showing us how he became a DEA informant. Or maybe he already is?

Might be too simple a solution to all the strands, but I reckon Chuck will die and Jimmy will show little remorse, taking an "I told him so" approach that disgusts Kim, who may also disapprove of Jimmy's growing fraternisation with the drug dealer class now that he's cottoned on to the amount of easy money he can make

I saw it, and literally the only thing I can remember about it was that Michael Clarke Duncan is also in it.

Weird to think he played "the kid" just a year before in Ocean's. Then suddenly being utterly convincing as a proper action star a year later.

Scorpion King ain't The Mummy Returns. And I also remember loving Reign of Fire and wondering why everyone was shitting on it. It's a dumb fun movie.

St- Stan?! Stan!

I heard that said about Lift, but yeah could see it applied to this one too.

The double guitar solo at the end of Wishbone Ash's Throw Down The Sword takes some beating. The two lines go off in wild directions, always complementing each other, and then come back together beautifully several times. Perfect.

Oh Christ, that's phenomenal.

One of the best rock singers ever. Audioslave wasn't his best work (that's a pretty high fucking bar, to be fair) but it was what first drew teenage me to his music, so I've got quite a place in heart for them.

Someone close by to me in the cinema vomited during Cloverfield because of the camera movements.

At least there'd finally be a President who could sell a fucking Stunner properly.

Agreed. I think in terms of what the show has been already, themes of Decay and Consequence are more what they're after than the Daily Shenanigans of Lawyer Prick Saul Goodman. That would be entertaining, sure, but maybe more interesting if left inexplicit in what we're shown?

B&R was, as far as I can remember, the very first film I saw in a cinema. (It's either that or Men in Black) So while it's a soggy note to start my cinema-going on, I was probably young enough not to despise it.

Guy Ritchie's Revolver. I was a depressed teenager having a bad day and then I saw… that.

I feel like the jazz experience that Holt would be all about would need to be something much classier, possibly involving tuxedos. I can definitely get with the idea that he's repelled by the notion of a casual jazz brunch in a pub.

I admire the influence and the lyricism but musically I've always found it quite samey. The songs have sounded better when covered in isolation by other artists (Big Star's Femme Fatale on Third is my particular favourite) and both Reed and Cale did vastly superior solo work. Loaded's also a better VU album in my
