Different spelling

Different pronounceation too. Johnny Depp's character in Chocolat is straight.

Got "Lion of the Desert", one of the greatest heroic warfilms ever starring Anthony Quinn as Omar Mukhtar.

Also received a nice book called "Fight Choreography - The Art of non-verbal Dialogue". Wow, it has about 500 written pages about fight choreography in movies.

I received yesterday:-
Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 1 & 2 (PC)
Splinter Cell: Double Agent (PC)
Replacement copy of Splinter Cell 1 (the initial copy from the Ebay seller produced read errors and refused to install, I tried cloning the CDs in Alcohol 120%, 2/3 of the discs were buggered).

@HungFist
I see you're updating your "Girl of Time"-DVD? Besides "Love Letter" this is one of my most favorite Christmas-Movies; that are films I tend to rewatch in the cold-season because they provide me with a kinda warm feeling inside.

IVL is bad, evil...

The film's got one of the best ending credits sequences of all time.

Have you seen the anime version?

Oh yes. Thought it was even better and fluently structured than the live-action version, with more interesting side-characters and exciting twists; various opportunities and paradoxons which come with time-travel are more thoroughly used. At the core it's still all coming-of age, though, high on emotion and teen-romance. The drawing style isn't as abundant with detail as for example a Katsuhiro Otomo feature, but still very lovingly done, with really nice backgrounds. Has a couple of nice, catchy pop-songs as well.

So, will you be asking Santa for more of these?

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 12 Dec 2008, 12:18

I doubt it

I had to use it up as it looks like its the end of Woolies.
