Hey Diddles - have you heard about the upcoming movie Stardust?
It is based on a graphic novel by Neil Gaiman, and has a cast of numerous big stars...
Here's the official movie site:

Finally watched the trailer.  That movie looks strangely cool.  I'd be interested in seeing it.

Yah, I thought it looked too much like a kid's movie until I saw Neil Gaiman's name attached and then I got more interested...

I actually have the stardust graffic novel if anyone wants to borrow it before they see the movie

I would like to see it.. I'll grab it next week when we get together if that's ok?

Hey Shabadu,

Downfall is quite a movie.  It shows with stark clarity the death nells of the third Reich.  There were some very hard to watch scenes.  Especially when Goebbel's wife gives their 6 children sleeping drug and then when they are asleep poisons them all.  

I was going to pick up another action flick for your birthday, but I kinda thought this movie looked really interesting and definately something you'd be interested in watching... I figured it wouldb't be the happiest movie of course, but I was fairly certain you'd like it all the same!

Have any of you ever heard of a movie called A Sunday in Kigali? (Actually a French film called "Un Dimache a Kigali")... it is a very moving story set around the time of the ethnic cleansing in Rwanda... an incredible story but very sad... being French it is all subtitled, so if that's not your cup of tea, don't bother renting it.. but one just an incredible tale.

Is it about soccer?

Yes.. originally it was called Shoalin Soccer VII: A Sunday in Kigali, but the name was changed when people got confused by the fact that soccer isn't played much outside of north america.

I'll bet there was a lot of French head butting during the matches.

The French aren't reknowned to do that, are they?

Yes, but only if they only say vowels.

a Diddly nightmare: Sarah Brightman and Paris Hilton in an opera movie!!! hee hee

Amanda and I watched War of the Worlds last night on TV.  Actually, it was a good flick.  Tom Cruise, despite his publicity stunts, does put on a good movie.  Others in this case would be Minority Report and the Last Samurai.
