Check out The True Battle at Chernobyl (Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKKz45ORPQQ).
If you want to see some alternative theories and conspiracy type stuff, there's also one called The Alien Intervention at Chernobyl or something. It's not a doc, but a radio show - Coast to Coast (the Art Bell show). Entertaining, but bring plenty of salt.

Also if you can track it down, in like 1989 or 1990 there was a film/TV special called The Final Warning about it, it's actually really good but it's hard to find. It starred Jon Voigt, here's the trailer: http://www.videodetective.com/movies/fi ... 9v6uheXSj8

I tracked it down a few years ago but the VHS was too distorted. People sell it for crazy prices online.

Alien 1 - 3

Species 1 - 3

both are awesome series'. Alien has the cinematics/suspense, Species is more action/filled with tits.not doing a description on each of them, recommended for any sci-fi fan, you get the idea.

hitting up Prometheus tomorrow, hoping it's better than everyone has been saying.

Tropic Thunder:

This well exceeded my expectations, thought it was going to be shit but found it very funny. Yeah the storyline is stupid as shit, but it had enough laughs and Robert Downey Jr playing a black guy was hilarious, as was the raging Tom Hanks.

Best part of Julien is Werner Herzog addicted to DXM.

His new one is a normal movie with Disney actors like Selena Gomez lol. Spring Break - Summer Break... something.
Spring Breakers. Just searched it there and it actually sounds alright...

Four college girls who land in jail after robbing a restaurant in order to fund their spring break vacation find themselves bailed out by a drug and arms dealer who wants them to do some dirty work.

Will be interesting to see a more linear effort from him, and by the sounds of it it should still be reasonably fucked up

Been watching Ideal series 1-4. I really liked it up until series 5 if I remember right. Soundtrack is good also.

Was about to give up on that film halfway through as it was boring me a little, but I persevered and i'm glad I did. Good story.
I know what you mean by that. :P

Yep, It's the Grandmaster directed by Wong Kar-Wai. A biopic of Ip Man, while this may seem like another movie about Bruce Lee's master I reckon it's got every chance of being better than Ip Man (Donnie Yen version) mainly because it's by Wong Kar-Wai and Ip Man will be played by Tony Leung (Infernal Affairs, cop undercover)

Think a few minutes footage was showing at Cannes this year but apparently there are scheduled re-shoots so it might not be out for a while yet.
The official synopsis of The Grandmasters is as follows,

With martial arts getting more popular in the Thirties, more people seek to learn them via the professionals at Foshan in Southern China. Some of the experienced masters like to challenge their counterparts and undergoing battles. To have their whole concentration, it is their practice to lock up the venues and no one is allowed to leave during battles. No food and no rest before reaching any results.

Ip Man is a young rich man extremely talented in martial arts, but he chooses to keep a low profile. Yet this doesn’t keep him out of these troubles ahead. One day he is trapped in this battleground so he has to use every means in order to get out of there. The masters are amazed by his abilities. Master Kung and his daughter Kung Yi are amongst, and the latter is attracted to this newcomer.

A high warlord is assassinated by his own guard Yi Xian Tian. All masters in Foshan vow to take Tian down no matter what…

Locked
