I got Young Frankenstein for Christmas - one of my favourite comedies of all time.

Watched it last night and it is sheer genius. Some of Mel Brooks' later stuff isn't that good, but this is him at his best. I think most people prefer Blazing Saddles, but I think Young Frankenstein beats it hands down. Marty Feldman helps of course.....

The Wrestler didn't live up to the hype for me. Ok, but nothing special.

as mentioned on the last couple of pages, Religulous is indeed a decent watch. the editing reminded me a bit of the old 90s show, Dream On. which is worth a bonus point.

and finally, after Film4 packed in on Saturday night after just over an hour, i managed to finish watching Assault on Precinct 13 late last night. i shouldn't have bothered.

I see "Airplane" is on Channel 4 and "Young Frankenstein" is on BBC4 after the bells on Hogmanay (aka New Years Eve ) .

Two of the funniest films ever made!

i really enjoyed the wrestler, though it was a really good film, also really enjoyed Will Smith's new film, seven pounds.

Body of Lies

whats young frankenstein about? i would investigate, but im hard at work you see.

See this from yesterday

Basically, Gene Wilder plays a doctor who is also the original Victor Frankenstein's grandson. He has distanced himself from his infamous ancestor (even pronouncing his name Fronken-steeen) believing him to be a lunatic who did not understand science. When his great-grandfather's will is read, he travels to Transylvania to discover what he thought were just nonsensical lunatic ravings could actually work and sets out to recreate what his grandfather did.

But it's much sillier than that of course!

It's pure genius.

i shall tape it tonight then. still to see blazing saddles

[Langdale Wolf]

It sure is pure genius. Marty Feldman gives one of the all time best comedy performances.

I do prefer Blazing Saddles though.

still to see blazing saddles

Funniest film of all time IMHO.

went to the cinema to see 'The Yes Man' yesterday....very funny film!!!

love jim carrey - such a funny actor!!!

[Iloveslushes]

Me and my mate from work saw the New Year in with a glass of wine and a DVD of Over Her Dead Body, with Eva Longoria playing a dead fiancee trying to put a psychic off getting with her husband-to-be. Even though I been all anti-romance lately, this was a canny little film.

Going to see The Spirit tonight at a late showing, looks pretty sweet!

yeah isnt anything like the book...it just uses the concept of it - still very good though!

[Sparticus]

i'd recommend the yes man, i thought jim carrey had lost the plot a bit on number 23 but he's back to his best, one funny guy!

I can't think of anything more pointless than watching a film about a "sport" which is in itself a total work of fiction
