I can't belive I gave up the chance to see this movie to watch The Ring 2! I feel so disgusted in myself! >_<

Mind you, it was that or spend an extra hour roaming around Glasgow with no money...

The Machinist is a decent film. Enjoyed it.

Bale is the skinniest man on the planet in it though!

***SPOILER ALERT****











Right, I've had a think about it - I assume the fat man is some sort of respresentation of Trevor's guilt over the hit and run; and that the story is told in a non-linear way. The only bit I don't get is how he went to the fair with the kid and waitress - was this a halucination, or some sort of flashback to visiting the fair with his own mother? It's good, I'll get more from repeated viewings.

I think so. Give it coupl'a weeks and it'll go £7.95 ex-rental in Global, and get Scott to buy it with his staff discount. Bargain!

EDIT: That was a reply to Sharon

Scott is no longer a global... he is a silverscreen... DVD always sucks him in.

So I get discount off of new things... he has to buy them though.

I should get it for 25% off retail. Bargain.

I shall purchase. I am getting Napolean Dynamite brand new for £7.50. Woot!
