that was ace. really pleased I watched it.

[The Nal]

Cant fookin wait!!

Finally got around to watching TT Closer to the Edge. Superb!

[t8yman]

tt is indeed great.

just watched "Pink Floyd : The Story Of Wish you were Here" (2011)

wow, what a great insight into everything about the album. the writing, the tensions, the photography and artwork, and even the "surprise visitor" at abbey road - no spoilers here!

highly, highly recommende for any floyd fan.

Dont think Ive seen a Floyd doc that isnt great. Such an interesting and arsey band.

[The Nal]

Led Zeppelin Celebration Day is superb. No Quarter, Trampled Underfoot and Kashmir being the highlights.

But the best thing about it is how much they enjoy it, the constant smiling and how genuine they are. Would love if there was a new band with half of their genuine musicianship. If they toured, which I hope they dont, they'dstill be the best rock band out there. By an absolute mile.

The Stones Crossfire Hurricane later!!

another ESPN 30 for 30. Broke, about why 78% of NFL players file for bankruptcy within 5 years of retirement. Really interesting and I think the whole thing is on you tube

Attenborough: 60 Years in the Wild starts on November 16th.

Also anyone seen Hello Quo? New Status Quo doc? Very good apparently.

I really liked Exit Through The Gift Shop though can't decide if the whole thing is a wind up. Even more brilliant if it is.

Just watched The Cove as a few of you had suggested it and that was heartbreaking.

[t8yman]

have you watched "Dear Zachary" ? makes the cove look like a disney film imho.

Also I found Talhotblonde an interesting documentary film. Worth a watch.

Don't think I could cope then The Cove had me in tears.

Everyone needs to go watch 'The Imposter' Best I have seen in a long time.

[t8yman]

its not in "the usual places" is it? cos I cant find it, fancied it for a while.

[The Nal]

I've been after it for ages myself. Haven't checked in the last few weeks mind you.

[t8yman]

its just gone up!

[When Jokers Attack]

I found it last night so it most have only got put up last night, Can't stop thinking about it.

[t8yman]

I have watched both and they are on a par for me.

I'm on "team human" so DZ pipped it to the post. cruelty to animals is abhorrent, but to humans its beyond that. not saying the cove wasnt deeply upsetting, it was, just not as upsetting to me as DZ

[t8yman]

Watched the imposter last night.

underwhelmed tbh
