Always a difficult one to answer but ... push comes to shove what is your all time favourite film?

There's a prize for the most obscure!?

Reckon I'd go for (none of which are that obscure) "Play it again Sam" but then again "Annie Hall" "Manhattan" and "Deconstructing Harry" are classic Woody Allen, "Once were warriors" is powerful and "Star Wars" had a big effect on me as a kid "Wild at Heart" rocks so does "Twin Peaks Fire walk with me", "Dune" is good "Eraserhead" is vile, the original version of "The Vanishing" pi**es all over Hollywood's rehash, "Run Lola run" is fun in a German type way, "Jean de Florrette" and "Mannon des Source" are cheshnuts...

...I give up I can't pick a favourite - don't reckon anyone else will be able to either?

plastikman (off to read 100 Bullets vol 4 - hurray - thankyou Chester Comic Co)

PS Sorry about the irrelevant subject title - isn't he a great character though?

PPS This is probably my most boring post ever - to cheer yourself up read the "when will he learn" post - guarantee the link will make u laugh! - good work Wils

... interested to know what is your single most treasured piece of 2000ad / sci-fi merchandise?

Mine is a large black mug i have in the shape of Darth Vader (not particulary rare or anything) - which actually sounds like Darth Vader if you breath into it (even though my wife told me to "stop being silly" when i demonstrated to her)

A selction of random points whilst I'm downloading Neil Young stuff...

1) Jack Kirby (?) / Someone Ditko - hear these names mentioned alot - is the stuff they did worth reading or has it dated badly?

2) Someone must have made this joke already ... anyone notice Scojo in this month's megs Dredd hehehe (sorry scojo :)

3) I've seen Star Wars twice and still don't understand the Count Dooku storyline - am I stupid?

4) Is Ron Smith still alive? What stuff has he done other than 2000ad? (Seeing "Sob Story" mentioned in the meg Dredd reminded how excellent his stuff was - whether he bothered with backgrounds or not!!). Any chance he'll do more 2000ad?

5) Weren't the Brasil / Costa Rica highlights excellent?

6) Just bought Jonny Double can't wait to read it.

Re. Bec & Kawl ... didn't D.R. say "like" alot - hmm it annoyed me then. I just don't think it works when you, like, read it.

(PVS - I'm getting a taste of this 'being a critic' lark!)

IMHO B&K has all the makings of a classic stinker!

...d'oh - having been busy with Jimmy Corrigan and Planetary over the last week I missed out on picking up 1290 - went to my usual supplier today to find 1291 sitting there in all it's glory but no 1290.

Anyone know where i can get 1290 in the Chester area - can't be bothered shagging to Forbidden Planet in Manc (they're so bloody miserable in there anyway - and I thought Eastern Bloc was bad!!!)?

plastikman.  

No it's not refering to what you think - it's the Guardians review of Attack of the Clones - still got me ticket and I'm seeing it Thursday :) (smug)

How do a set up a poll?

Just finished "Jimmy Corrigan" (one of your recommendations)...

"Words cannot describe how brilliant this is" - I agree completely.

PS serialised in the meg ... er I don't think so!!

...thanks for the flood of responses to my (admittedly rather weak) "world cup" suggestion - of the 2 responses one was ...er ..... me!

I atleast expected some abuse telling me what a stupid idea it was!!
