Must have been good, the chat suddenly turned to boxing!

I had it on on my TV with the sound muted and the CGI seemed quite good, I'm afraid that's all I can say.

I mentioned to Leonard in a PM that Saturday night is my night for music and it has been fun so far listening to IRC based radio. I might turn that down a little bit now as Pelham 123 is just about to start on C4+1 (2nd choice in the poll!)

Watching that with you, browni.

Good ol IRC. Haven't used that in ages! Do you have a good group of people you hang out with on your channel?

It's an interesting bunch of people from literally wordwide. Surprisingly the current DJ is from a neighbouring town to where I was born & bred.

I wish I had downloaded and watched the original of Pelham 123 earlier as so far this looks and feels exactly the same.

[Liquid]

I really enjoyed the movie been meaning to watch it for ages:)

I loved the fight in the ruins:)

[jonsie]

To be honest it isn't the type of film I would have normally taken the trouble to watch but it was surprisingly good:smileytongue:

[perksie]

I quite enjoyed it, wouldn't watch it again though and they didn't go overboard on the plot did they?

I couldn't feel any sympathy with any of the characters, maybe I was out of my comfort zone with this one.

Well filmed with not too much CGI, good effort.

6/10 for me.

[Toby]

How was Pelham123 guys? I haven't seen it yet

I watched Safe house the other day that was awesome!
