I'd rather just burn Reading.

that's fun too. you can go and watch the film afterwards though. try the Odeon in......Slough?

Just seen the trailer. Doesn't really appeal.

Subject: Re: Burn After Reading Fri Oct 17, 2008 3:18 am

fair enough. are you a fan of Coen brothers stuff in general?

Seen a handful of their films and thought they were half-decent.

that's probably the effect you'll get from this then. may be worth a rental?

Increasingly picky with films. Might have watched it on Filmfour if it had been released a decade ago.

I thought the trailer looked like utter cack.

Bump for belated agreement with Ginners. I enjoyed it very muchly.

i was surprised at how it ended but as i was walking back to the tube i thought about it and started pissing myself.

"Jesus, what a clusterfuck."

Dungeon Keeper Number of posts : 7943 Points : 1780

Me too, it was so abrupt but I was pissing myself the second it cuts to the last scene. Very Happy

"What did we learn from this?"
"Uhh, I don't know."
"I don't fucking know either! I guess... not to do it again. Whatever the fuck we did do..."

Brilliant. It's one of those few films I could have happily watched another time right away, can't wait to see it again.

were there lots of booms in shot for you?

i've watched 2 films in the space of a week that had so many booms in shot but i'm wondering if that was just cos they were preview copies.

Subject: Re: Burn After Reading Wed Oct 22, 2008 3:37 am

yes, it's cos they're previews. i noticed the frames weren't cropped either. should've put two and two together.
