Perfect Dark is the worst fucking FPS I've ever played in my life. Goldeneye is ten times better.

But Chrono Trigger is Squaresoft's finest work.

Perfect Dark's single player is infinitely better than Golden Eye's.

Actually, I've only ever seen the end of The Crow. It's on the list of movies to see. Out of alot of movies I've seen the aformentioned are the only ones where I've been happy to watch them over and over and over again and still be entertained by the acting and storyline.

Apart from those two there are the usual bunch of comedys that get me laughing now and then like Spaceballs and Men in Tights, along with the odd Monty Python movie. Problem with comedy movies though is that you eventually hear all the jokes and they're just not funny anymore. Usually just watch them with mates while drunk.

There aren't too many movies that can be watched repeatedly and get better each time... The Big Lebowski is one of them, mainly because the subtleties in that movie are so charming and the characters are so idiosynchratic. The music is pretty good too.

It's one of those movies where you wish like hell for a sequel, even though you know it's "unsequelable".

I'm currently reading The Icewind Dale Trilogy, lent to me by Fortysix and Two. I think I read about 90 pages a day and frequently 'sacrifice' my homework for a chapter from a good book - bad habit...
