Anyone seen 'The Prestige'??

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0482571/

Straight in to my favourite films of all time. Christopher Nolan on the buttons, hehe. Sublime script, beautiful score... and Christian Bale proves he is the greatest actor alive. I pretty much loved every second.

Not to mention David Bowie as Tesla, the ultimate cameo.

Recently saw Zodiac, and highly recommend it.

Great writing, lots of charcter details, utterly absorbing.

)

Braindead

What a film, from start to finish it totally eclipses Gaylord of the rings as Jackson's best film evar.

Lost Highway is pretty fucking great, as is Kung fu hussle

Your name is "you're wanting", and you can't play the man's game, you can't close them, and then tell your wife your troubles. 'Cause only one thing counts in this world: get them to sign on the line which is dotted. You hear me you fuckin' homophobe.?
