    Back to The Future 2 & 3 were poor in my opinion. Could have never lived up to the first. And, I've hated Star Wars ever since i first saw it. Load of ****e. Same with Lord of The Rings aswell. Terrible films.

    Sounds brilliant! I'll pop over to amazon in a minute and order the book because that sounds like something I would really like to read. Totally fascinated by that period in history.

    I was delighted that they made the film Sophie Scholl a few years back and it was pretty good (although could have been better). I'd read a book about her a few years before (Sophie Scholl and the White Rose) and was blown away by her story. Thoroughly recommend them both if you haven't already seen them.

    What!?!?!?!?! How can you say that about a truly truly epic trilogy!

    Also, I've never seen Star Wars...

    Check out a band called Exit Calm, oh and Spotlight Kid. They're fantastic! Amazing to see them live when you're stoned (I would like to point out im in no way advocating the use of drug use, for the pleasure of watching a live band....but it does make it alot better)

    It's partly true, I've seen about half an hour of a Star Wars film and I really didn't care for it, just wasn't interesting me in the slightest.

    Trust me mate...its an absolute must read. I went to Warsaw last year...and standing at the Umschlagplatz brought me tears after hearing some of the dreadful things that had happened there. There is one part (I wont say what) that made me put the book down one evening. I just couldnt carry on.

    Not interested in Star Wars also, went to the cinema to one, not sure which one, about 2002 I guess.. A battle scene between robots for 45 minutes isn't very entertaining...

    It was an experience because it was so out of the blue and unlike anything before it. And to a child it was almost magical. You were given a goody bag of stickers and things when you left as well, which has never happened to me before or since so the whole thing felt special.

    Like philthompsonsnose says though I actually came to realise that the film was actually pretty poor when you strip away the graphics and the feeling of massive scale. But I can still understand why some people love it.

    I was speaking to someone who used to work where i work now, and she reckoned that Star Wars is good if you get into it while your a young'un, and if you wait until your teenage years or later to first see it you won't like it usually.

    Night AH <ok>

    Brilliant. Try watching something called the MacPherson tapes when you're high. Now there is an experience haha.

    Au Revoir mate.
