Book of Eli - Denzel Washington - took two attempts to watch it all the way through - a bit of a duff Mad Max type film. Watchable. 4/10

 

Green Zone - Matt Damon - enjoyed it, always like films based out in Middle East, etc. 7/10

 

Planet 51 - was enjoying it til I nodded off, kids liked it - must be good. 6/10

 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - see above - 6/10

 

Good Will Hunting - Matt Damon/Robin Williams - look, there was fook all else on this Saturday just gone, never seen it before - quite enjoyed - the scene were Robin Williams was going on about his late wife farting in bed had me in tears - half decent. Oh, and Minnie Driver looked far better than I can ever remember. 7/10

 

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - its Swedish so no famous actors/actresses - great thriller - didn't bother me that it was in subtitles great revenge scene on the pervy Probation Officer- looking forward to the 2nd in the trilogy in the next week or so - well worth the watch and highly recommended. 9/10

 

That's me, Jonathan Woss, over and out.

'My Octopus Teacher'. 9/10.

Very good Netflix effort.

When They See Us - 4 parter

 

on a similer vein

started watching a documentary about anoter black lad getting fitted up - Trial 4 or something

old school hard nut copper gets shot in the face 5 times in a supermarket car park in Boston - they think it's probably someone he arrested getting revenge (400 convictions from  500 arrests, the sort of copper who will do whatever it takes)

then they think it might be his jilted lover

then a few days later a lad brought in a for another case mentions he went to the supermarket that night

it's easier to pin it on him, because he's black, so they do

20+ years later they let him out with an apology

8 parts, only watched the 1st one, seen it all before

That's on my to watch list. In a similar vein the Khalief Brouda (sp?) Story is a harrowing watch and pretty damning of the US plea bargain system.

That is a great question! 

I watched it in the cinema when it came on and a couple came to their seats late, about 15 minutes in.  I've often wondered if they left thinking "Wtf was all that about?"

Off top of my head it's after the diner scene and before the boxing match / watch up the arse scene

Zico did you make a falling down pic of Jazza?

Yes

Im to pissed to find it now and the search facility on this site is wank 

The thread itself is folklore, I'm pretty sure it was the same thread where jazza gave us a running commentary of his life as he demolished a crate of lager, taking pictures of empty cans along the way
