    I don't know much about headphones but in January I got a pair of these:

     

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Reid-and-Heath-Acoustics-CA-200b/dp/B00632GE54

     

    but in White for £40 in HMV and they are a good pair of headphones for that price or it seems cheaper on Amazon.

     

    Much better than my Hello Kitty ones which are mainly for show not sound quality. :)

     

    Plus you can detach the headphone cable thing so it's not all messy/doesn't get all tangled when you are not using it.

    The Ood are so good. :grin: Watched the Ood one with Donna the other day, I think she is a great assistant but it will be a while until I get back to her since I am actually watching this from the beginning at the moment. :)

    damn dirty apes

     

    YES!

     

    Surprise hit of last summer.

     

    MY GOD.

     

    I was excited just from the trailer and orgasmed 4 times in my seat right there and then.

     

    I still need to get the film on Bluray but it was like MONKEYYYS everywhere.

     

    The subtle references to the other films made it though. :D A great treat for any planet of the apes fans and it helped wash away that horrible tim Burton taste from my mouth because even when I saw it when I was 10/11 I though it sucked.

    watching movies.

     

    For someone reason I always find it cute when you watch a film.

     

    /Unintentionally patronising.

     

    Is that your first time you've seen those Disney Films? :)

     

    I've started having five film marathons with my friend which is why there are a few Cronenberg films I've watched this week as well as Woody Allen.

     

    We completed Five Cronenberg Horrors and we are currently doing Five Woody Allen oddities. Up next is FIVE POST 2000 JAPANESE CINEMA

     

     

    I'll just make a list of what I've watched this week:

     

    Machete (Ethan Maniquis, Robert Rodriguez 2010) The story utter nonsense but if you enjoy highly levels of bloody violence it takes you on a fun but stupid ride. Approach With Caution.

     

    Dead Alive (Peter Jackson, 1992) Blending Gore and a slice of romantic comedy together to create this over the top master piece that never lets up on the laughs or the blood even though it gets down right silly. Recommend.

     

    Shivers (David Cronenberg, 1975) He is feeling the ground in this movie laying some themes that will be better explored in other movies it looks kind of cheap and the plot is just strange but not in an intriguing way. Approach With Caution.

     

    Wonderwall (Joe Massot, 1968) Pervy with a vague message. Approach with Caution

     

    I Don't Know How She Does It. (Douglas McGrath, 2010) Terrible and predictable. Don't Bother.

     

    Rabid (David Cronenberg, 1977) A slight step up from Shivers but actually less fun. Approach With Caution.

     

    Scanners (David Cronenberg, 1981) Amazingly good and bad at the same time. It's got a great ending but the acting through out is poor and often hilarious. Worth A Look.

     

     

    The Dead Zone (David Cronenberg, 1983) A decent movie that is just a bit monotonous in it's story and in it's pacing. Perfectly fine but not very thrilling. Worth A Look.

     

     

    Mad Detective (Johnnie To, Ka-Fai Wai, 2007) Brilliant, as the movie goes on you have been so emerged into this characters world that you start to lose sense of who you are. Recommend.

     

     

    eXistenZ (David Cronenberg, 1999) This is David Cronenberg's craziest screenplay which feels kind of ahead of its time and even though the overall arching plot is nonsense it still has a good general theme of fantasy VS. Reality and if you watch it you won't forget it any time soon as it is rather odd what with the anal belly button licking/probing and tooth guns. Worth A Look

     

     

    Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask. (Woody Allen, 1972) Dated aside from the final segment. Approach With Caution.

     

    The Breakfast Club (John Hughes, 1985) Surprisingly excellent, a great 80s teen movie that is still relevant today bar some cheesiness which I'm willing to brush over since it actually blew me away, I was captivated for its entirety. Recommend.

     

    Interiors (Wood Allen, 1978) The Dialogue feels to clinical and because of this the characters come off as annoying and unrealistic but it still contains a solid dysfunctional family drama that is quite grim. Worth A Look.

     

    Zelig (Woody Allen, 1983) Technically great visual treat that places Woody Allen throughout 1920s-1940s America as a man who is able to adapt to his surroundings and blend in. Presented as a documentary style it is a well thought idea that is perhaps stretched to thin by the end for my liking. Essentially Forrest Gump for winners. Worth A Look.

    I didn't get any PM about this. Are you sure you have an information gathering role? And not a tampering role? Because someone attacked me on Night 1.

     

    Oh. That makes sense.

     

    BTW, I didn't send in a target night 2 y'all because my parents have been up here IRL and so bave been preoccupied so don't read into that. :)
