How can it be a DVD rip? Surely the DVD isn't even out Yank-side?

Boo and hiss you thief - I've seen the adverts, I know you're now DIRECTLY responsible for kiddie fiddlers and bombs. Bad man.

But seriously, why spoil the film - you COULD just wait?

They send out review copies and previews to critics and cinemas on DVD. You see a load of DVD rips online as a film hits cinema screens.


When did mediocrity and banality become a good image for your children? ... The New Kids! "Hi we're the New Kids and we're so good and clean-cut..." "We're so clean cut!" Seig Heil! Heil! Heil! A good clean country... Heil! Heil! Heil! Fuck that! I want my rock stars dead! I want them to fucking play with one hand and put a gun in their other fucking hand and go "I hope you enjoy the show!" *Bang!* Yes! Yes! Play from your fucking heart!

Just back from seeing this and i really enjoyed it, the people in the cinema didn't seem to agree with me though, i heard a very loud "well, that was shit" from the back and someone else went "huh?" at the end. My friend thought it was awful, too long and nothing happened.
Don't know what they were on about, i had only 1 complaint (not film related) I had to go to the beach to see it, i hate the seats there, they are not comfortable at all, and for a 2 hour plus film comfy seats are needed

Yeah, when i saw it, there were some people who didn't get it. and while i loved it, a lot of folk seemed baffled by the end. My girlfriend didn't enjoy it too much, but i wasn't suprised because she rarelely enjoys films i subject her to.

We went to the beach first but decided belmont might be better. Though still incredibly sore arse at the end of it.
