TV tonight: Caged Death Match: United 93 vs. Lucky Number Slevin

[Geri]

I thought United 93 was really good when I watched it - too late for me last night though, I think I fell asleep by 10.30.

I can't remember if I've seen Lucky Number Slevin.

 

[The Octagon]

Morgan Freeman was unconvincing as a baddie

This is very true, a brief knifing or scene of a goon being tortured in the background was too much to ask?

I'm watching Slevin on +1...but not for long. Jesus it's dire

i concur, i lasted about 10 mins

I was watching the stuff with Lucy Lui and the cup of sugar and was all this is supposed to be a film?

Waste of Bruce Willis too

 

[QueenOfGoths]

I watched "Miss Marple" And enjoyed it

Plus recorded "Phone calls from the Towers".

Phonecalls from the Towers didn't squeeze a tear out of me so I can't recommend it at all.

I have a morbid curiousity about it

So did I but I wasn't sated. Some of the people on it are too weird so I had no empathy for them at all.

Seriously - if you want to watch something to sate your morbidity about that day watch this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0312318/

But don't let me tell you what to do *waves hand*

I do want to see that as well - I gather it is excellent

It really really is. They got the only shot of the first plane hitting...oh, I won't spoiler it but it's really good. Not that we don't know how it ends but the bits and bobs in it...

 

[DotCommunist]

tragedy pr0n

 

[5t3IIa]

Yup

 

[The Octagon]

Just wondering, have there been any plane hijackings since Sep 11th?

Particularly hijackings with a view to actually landing the plane somewhere else, rather than use it as a missile?

Would plane passengers accept this anymore, or would they assume they were going to die anyway and try to retake the plane?

Not sure what I personally would do, but I imagine there would be far more 'have-a-go' types nowadays.

Watched United 93 last night a fuckin gripping film esp the last bit,I found meself willing the passengers on to take back control of the plane but of course that didn't happen
