  1. Chronicles of Narnia - Lion, Witch, & Wardrobe

     

    *** Spoiler warning***

     

    Thought I'd go to the Friday, 5pm show to avoid the crowds, but it was still mobbed. The story really gets the Lord of the Rings treatment. I would guess that three-quarters of the film's 250-million dollar budget went into the film's final hour alone. Cool closing-credits tune by Alanis Morrisette called "Wunderkind."

  2. So what does "bollocks" mean? I know there was a Nirvana bootleg called Nevermind the Bollocks, so I was assuming it was a place where they performed. And how about "bugger" as in "bugger off"? I have same vague recollection of bugger being synonymous with sodomite.

     

    Here's a word I'm 100% sure of. "Sheist" = :poop: in German

  3. I've been watching a lot of BBC America--shows like 'Green Wing,' 'At Home with Braithwaites,' 'Mile High.' Can my UK friends provide me with definitions for the terms below. Some I have an idea about based on the context in which they were used.

     

    wanker, wankpot - one who plays with himself

    sod - poop

    sod off - like 'piss off' but to do so in the poopy sense

    bullocks - ?

    git - ?

     

    quid - same as a British pound?

  4. I don't understand why would a band want to reissue their album on CD-R. They can be overwritten, they denote cheapness, plus they blur the line between legit and non-legit recordings. I'd be afraid to sell them, as they could be mistaken for pirate copies. Is silver-pressing that expensive?

  5. Tonight I saw THE ICE HARVEST (strange title) starring John Cusack and Billy Bob Thorton. Funny but forgettable film with all these corrupt goings-on in a Christmas setting. Similar to REINDEER GAMES.

     

    Oh, at the start of trailers, they had an ad with new Fandango puppets. Woohoo!
