BBC has no adverts every 15 minutes, infact, BBC has no adverts at all so it's nothing bad.

BBC is hardcore. Best channel ever in the world, of all time.

NO ADVERTS. NO FUCKING ADVERTS.

Word.
Also their news coverage is unbiased, and a part of their site has gone semi-open source. They really have got broadcasting right.

Film;
Lilya 4-Ever - 9/10
One of the most powerful films that I've ever seen. Intensely moving and very well acted too. Worth a watch :icon14:

My current setup (in my room, anyway) is only outputting as mono I think, I have 4 speakers linked up to my stereo but I'm pretty sure one of the cables is only mono

.

Oh and watched Sin City last night, 8/10, great video quality for the mostly black/white stuff

Man On Fire - avarage action flick with a thin story line. But there were some redeeming things such as Samuel L. Jackson playing an alcoholic and a pretty damn original scene about an ass-bomb.

6/10

I have it. Started to see it, and I had to leave, but I never got around to see the whole movie (only 10 or 15 minutes in the start), but I don't think I want to see it actually. Just make me feel bad. Like Requiem for a Dream. Fantastic movie, but I rather not see it again.

Fantastic Four: 4, generic action super hero movie with no depth whatsoever. Lousy SFX too.
Mr. & Mrs. Smith: 7.5, entertaining and pretty funny at times.
Hearts in Atlantis: 8, good story, good acting, and I already read the book (and the dark tower series which it ties in nicely with)
Snatch: 9, great movie, as you will all agree.
Finding Neverland: 7, good story, but a bit too slow for my taste.

Oh i forgot i watched something called 'Azumi' this weekend.
It was one of those crazy Japanese ninja movies, but this one actually had a decent storyline, good humour and lots of impressive (and innovating!) camera shots. Was after a comic as i understood it.

8/10

It's still no oscar winner but it changes a stupid film to one that is actually rather good.

You know, i actually loaded up the SE DVD while ID4 was on and watched that, simply because my digi box was having a shit (Fuzzy pic). Yeah, it really does make the difference. There is so much new shit.

Dont reckon much of the original ending with the bi-plane, glad that was cut.

Children of Dune (TV miniseries) - 7/10

Ok, I guess, they followed the books pretty closely, and the acting was bearable, but some of the cg effects were horrible. But I guess it was pretty low budget, so I'm not really complaining.

March of the Penguins

Great film, a treat for nature buffs :icon14:

Fantastic 4 - 6/10

Cheesy story and acting but still a decent waste of a couple hours.

My god, what I piece of shit. I had almost forgot how bad it was.
