Started watching AI at the weekend, fell asleep after first half hour, woke up for last half hour.... both half hours were dismally shit

Edmond - disappointing drama about a successful but bored guy who leaves his wife and hits the streets of NYC. William H Macy (who I'm normally a big fan of) is annoying and unconvincing. 5/10

Saw this on Sunday... 94% awesomeness.

Also been watching Shoot 'em Up which I was hoping to be a highly witty and amusing killing frenzy but was somewhat disappointed by the lack of witty comedy. And The Simpsons Movie, which I'm glad I didn't pay to see at the cinema or pay to rent... tpb all the way. Twas fun, but not as amazing as I've heard some people say it is and I don't fully understand the whole Spiderpig craze that was going on because I didn't find that all too amusing :para:
