- Didn't hannah get her wammers out in this?
  
  Reckoning @fullerov | 23 Apr '07, 18:06 | X
- i bet that was fucking wicked
  
  sophiacherryx @fullerov | 23 Apr '07, 18:07 | X
  - It was.
    
    and nice use of wammmers there.
    
    It would have been SO easy to use one of the more common slang terms for breasts.
    
    But you used a nice esoteric term. :)

Apparently Underworld are responsible for much of the soundtrack...

which is awesome by the way...

sunshine looks so dull

OMG! THE SUNS GONNA BURN OUT!

*snore*

sophiacherryx | 23 Apr '07, 18:02 | X
- 'sunshine looks so dull'
  
  Ha! The irony! It's only because of the actions of the brave actors in this film that the sunshine is not dull!
  
  Seriously though, you're the wrongest person ever. Be gone.

- yeah, what a bland, uninteresting concept
  
  psyche
  
  doctornovocalcords @sophiacherryx | 23 Apr '07, 18:09 | X
  - well yeah
    
    lets go stop this thing from happening in space.
    cos there aren't already a million of those films.
    
    im sure it's actually proving me wrong and is an excellent film but to me the concept just says zzzzzzzzzzzzz
    
    sophiacherryx @doctornovocalcords | 23 Apr '07, 18:10 | X
    - Danny Boyle cannot make zzzzzzz films.
      
      Factoid.

      - everyopne I know who's seen it says...
        
        it's great for the 1st two thirds but SHITE after that!
        
        sadpunk @sophiacherryx | 23 Apr '07, 18:14 | X
        
        theyre pretty much right
        
        but that first two thirds is rather great.
        
        doctornovocalcords @sadpunk | 23 Apr '07, 18:43 | X
      - but there actually aren't that many films with similar plots
        
        and even if there were, space is the place

      - sunshine is actually fairly gripping
        
        but yeah it isn't amazing. Just average and VERY spectacular.
        
        lemonbrickcombo @sophiacherryx | 23 Apr '07, 19:01 | X
      - tbh
        
        'let's go stop this thing from happening on earth'

        in a wonderful example of cinematic synchronicity Blades of Glory and Days of Glory came out in the same week.

        Xiao xing chuang di qiu (Sunshine Friends) lets this list down...

        No, you're thinking of Danny Xoyle...
        
        He'd had a pretty impressive track record up until Xiao xing chuang di qiu...By then his ego had taken over and the film was all Joel Schumacher...
