    There are a few choices in that list that would make me sick if I had to watch them again. <laugh>

    watched 2 films the other day both good

    limitless
    the thing (prequel) not as good as the original but still good,try to not compare the 2 and you'll enjoy it.ties up some of the questions asked in the original nicely.

    An absolute classic. Barry Norman's vote for best film of all time and I reckon he isn't far wrong! <ok>

    Haven't seen it yet. Bit wary because I love the Carpenter version and really don't see the need for a remake.

    I watched Kill List yesterday.

    Great low budget British film. Bit confused by the ending though so need to rewatch. Anybody else seen it?

    you'll hate it if you try and compare the two you have to try and not do it but it doesn't compare to the original still an ok film though

    have to disagree with citizen Kane found it over rated pompous rubbish but each to their own :)

    Good film. Starts off as a gritty hit man film and then changes into something else (like From Dusk Til Dawn). Interested to know what other people think about it ...

    Love The Third Man too.

    Don't know if its just me but thrillers seem to be more atmospheric in black and white.

    Welles with Joseph Cotten again. The lighting of the shadows was brilliant and the eerie music of the zimmer just made you tingle.

    Hoping to go and see The Artist, black and white silent movie that's out, get's great revues.

    Lucky you ... really want to see that but it isn't showing here (worst thing about living on a small island). Hope you enjoy it!

    Would it be cheeky to ask you to post a few lines letting me know what you thought of it? ;)
