Gonna be a looong off-season, so I thought I'd start up a movie and TV companion piece.

Here goes...

TV

Arrested Development Series 3 (again)
Californication

Movies

Em 4 Jay
Strangers With Candy
Zodiac
The Game of Their Lives

Seinfeld.
The Simpsons.
Looney Tunes.
Sportscenter(US).

TV

Started The Sopranos from series 1, ep 1 the other day. Hopefully all 6 series will get me through a lot of the summer.
Californication is still providing a few laughs.

Movies

I think an 80's inspired summer is on the cards. Wall Street, Breakfast Club... Anything 80's will probably get a run.

Can't go past Police Academy...

Funny you say that. Went to JB and bought it this morning after posting in here.

I basically watch BBC's The Office, Arrested Development and Trailer Park Boys over and over, and am currently doing so now again.
For something I haven't already watched 10 times, I just bought Family Guy series 5 & 6 to watch, and am checking out downloads of the latest Heroes and Smallville series.

I am watching this thread on my computer screen right now cause I cant get near the telly cause the kids are watching re runs or videos of Saddle Club, oh enjoyment

We've just signed up for Foxtel and you can get packages now that are much more economical than they used to be for anyone getting bored with only 5 channels

There are some great shows on there altho you do pay for them granted

Just started back with Series One of Family Guy, going to have a knee operation on Thursday, so a fait bit of TV/DVD time coming up.

Ahhh GREAT.
I love the Sopranos. Watched them all!

I hope you like it =)

Will be my third run through from start to finish. Best show ever, IMO.

Fat rat bastard! Was my favourite line, for some reason.

My kids have discovered all my old (safe) videos. They reckon this Indiana Jones bloke is a complete guru and these Blues Brothers fellas are hilarious.

As for Ferris Bueller, well . . . . .

They won't do the kids any harm, Rog. Smac jr watched Police Academy with me yesterday, I reckon I've never heard him laugh so much.

But those other videos... I'd imagine Mrs Rog wouldn't want the kids finding those ones!

Once Upon a Time in the Midlands
Burke & Wills
The Ax
Hard Candy

I watched that other night on a friends recommedation. Bloody disturbing.

Anyone seen Peep Show hidden away on ABC2? Piss funny

Curb your Enthusiasm DVD- Season 5- The larry david sandwich

Uncomfortable as it was to watch, thought the first half-hour was as engrossing as it was disturbing...

But then it became a schlockfest.

An odd little film in that the 'hero' is as sick and demented, perhaps even more so, as the 'villain.'

In the end, they were both lu-lu...

Fairly accurate desciption you made there. Uncomfortable is spot on.

For anyone looking for a good laugh...

The Book of Revelation.

Unfortunately, it's supposed to be a serious, thought-provoking drama.

Amazingly - but then not really all that suprising given the flunky state of the local film industry - director Ana Kokkinos is now Head of Directing at AFTRS.

Some 'interesting' films should come out of there in the next few years...
