Don't read the wiki article on it, it's full of fucking spoilers. I'm glad I didn't look there before I watched the film. :nono:

Cube's alright.

DO NOT WATCH THE SEQUELS. ;ob;

I watched The A Team and Kick-Ass yesterday. The A Team was great, good entertainment with no deeper value, exactly how I expected it to be. Kick-Ass was freakin' awesome. One of the best action films I've seen in years. It was so funny too. I'd give it 23/10. :tup:

Kick-ass was ruined when they moved in to high-powered weaponry and shit.

Just watched "Legion" again last night. (The lead, Paul Bettany, was "Silas" in "The Da Vinci Code", "Dr. Stephen Maturin" in "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World", and "Charles Darwin" in "Creation", among others.)

The story revolves around the second coming. Bettany, playing the Archangel Michael, is rebelling against God's plan to kill the Christ child. Gabriel, ever the kiss-up, is following orders to the letter. Michael helps the child survive long enough for God to see he's screwed the pooch and cancels the kill-on-sight order. The idea that God is a screw-up is played very subtly here. :hehe:

Anybody seen The Expendables? I already assume it's not Fellini but is it worth watching after a couple of bottles of Tokay?

It's worth watching for the laugh.

Got Prince of Persia to watch too. All I know is what Kermode said, which is that it's better and shorter than POTC....
