  1. I thought the Lobster was great. Interesting concept and I loved the deadpan delivery.
  2. The entire point being that they were small time bullies (especially Sonny) and the fact they drive around in such a ridiculous car was there to emphasise that, which it did perfectly. Basically, none of them were up to dealing with such a force of serious vengeance that Richard embodied. The scene with Sonny and Richard was a perfect illustration of that. Sonny begins the scene reasonably confident and that is quickly eroded by Richards manner and matter of fact tone. The way the scene ends with Sonny visually shaken and Richard nonplussed is once again superb.
  3. Yep that's the one. The whole thing is utterly amazing. The way the conversation begins, and then the shift of power between the two of them is brilliantly written and acted. I just love the hell out of it.
  4. Well Dead Mans Shoes is one of Shane's best and imo one of the best British movies of all time. It also contains my favourite scene in a movie ever, so yeah not a bad place to start
  5. Personally I think Xia has done well to identify the issue and take action sooner rather than later. No procrastination, he did what was needed.
  6. If you know people that haven't seen Dead Man's Shoes then you know the wrong people. And to be honest, kill list and old boy are hardly obscure oddities
  7. New manager bounce means an 85 nil win to us.
  8. Exactly this. I hate the idea of moving a manager on so quickly (even one I didn't want from the start as I thought he was a bad fit) but if it's glaringly obvious he isn't up to scratch then I see no reason at all to keep him in the forlorn hope that he turns things around. RDM has indeed 'made it SO SOON' himself.
  9. It's OK, but could have been even better with a bit more restraint. It has some very good acting in it (particularly Mark Rylance) but it suffers from Spielberg's usual OTT dashes of signposted sentimentality and on the nose emotional tugs (yes, we know we're supposed to be appalled/uplifted etc Steven, you don't have to be so bleeding obvious about it).
  10. Seems like a decent man, seems like an awful football manager. Get him gone Tony.
  11. This Sunday. Three bands that i'm this excited about seeing:
