No. Occult meaning secretive; known only to few.

Cult means an active fellowship. So I certainly didn't mean that. He doesn't base his life on it or owt stupid like that.

One of the greatest movies of the century.

Sonar is the technology being used here. Echolocation would be the application, used by dolphins as well as bats in nature. Doesn't he say 'submarine' in the film, though??

Ah The matrix. My yearly fix

GI Joe - The Rise Of Cobra was disappointing. I grew up on Action Force/Joe and was looking forward to this, but it's a bit of a mess.

The special effects are overly ambitious and as a result are quite poor.

I'm thinking the bit where they fly to the pit for the first time over the desert, and the battle of Paris.

It all looked unfinished just like the workprint copies you often see flying around.

The flashback scenes were pathetic. When I looked at the casting and

saw there was a young Snake Eyes and a young Storm Shadow I was pretty gutted. They could have quite easily gone the route of X-Men and had an Origins series wth loads of the characters (but not messed it up like Wolverine), especially these two chaps. Oh well. And in the comics, Zartan popped the Hard Master, not Storm Shadow.

Coraline, really quite strange, but good. Made by the same guy who did Nightmare before Christmas, from a book by Neil Gaiman (Stardust). Beautifully animated, and I'm guessing some parts would really scare kids. A couple of little uns sat near me had been dropped off by mum who was picking them up after. Either she hadn't checked out what the film was like or thought her kids could handle it. Bet the youngest had freaky dreams that night though.

The voice actors were all excellent too, particularly freaky little Dakota Fanning

I watched Coraline and really enjoyed it too. I would agree that it would be scary to kids. It scared me a bit. But us flame-haired love machines are like that.

Mind you, is it any scarier than something like Blink, the Doctor Who episode about statues? And aren't a lot of fairy-tales based on some fear anyhow? I think it's an old-fashioned fairly tale in essence.

I was watching Summer Holiday at 1am at a festival last weekend. It was the first time I have seen it, and I found it jolly good. I think drink may have been a contributing factor to my appraisal

[When Jokers Attack]

Watched Videodrome last night for the first time. I liked it was very weird though
