Best movie news I've heard in a while

I've never seen 28 Day Later, or 28 Weeks Later. I think I saw a little bit of the first one and decided it was too scary and bailed :/
It is very scary. The final 30 minutes are the most tense 30 minutes of film I think I've ever seen. "28 Weeks" is cool, but it pales in comparison to "28 Days", so I'm really happy that Boyle is re-taking his seat in the director's chair.
I scare easy. I'm glad I bailed then. I would like to see it, but I'm not gonna make it any harder to get to sleep at night, just to see a movie lol
Well, if you're never going to see it, I'll ruin the ending for you. "28 Days Later" has real characters with genuine emotion, so when the shit is hitting the fan, we really care about what will happen to them; it's not like other horror movies where you don't care that everyone dies.
Anyway, our main hero is this dude, and he teams up with a father and his daughter, and a random hot-chick. The dad dies, and that scene is kinda rough. The two girls, plus this dude are taken in by a group of military survivalists -- a bunch of soldiers in a makeshift military compound.
Problem is -- these soldiers are all dudes, and they've been waiting for some girls to stop by. So, the soldiers take the girls captive, planning to rape them, and kick our hero out into the forest, with all of the zombies. So now our hero has to fight not just the zombies, but break back into the military compound to save the day. Holy shit, it is so tense. 30 minutes of non-stop horror. But it has a happy ending, yay!

Are you listening in on my phone-coversations, Cracker? My friend has, seconds ago, told me this.
It's good to be 'ome.

I know, right?
BTW, I was skeptical of "127 Hours", but all the buzz I've read about it is very positive, and it sounds like it's a shoe-in to be nominated for many awards.

Cool, thanks cf 
127 hours has my vote simply because I could watch James Franco eat a sandwich and clean his toilet for 3 hours and I'd be happy.

Not at the same time!
"That's what she said."
Mmm, no, sorry. Nice try, though. But perhaps you should leave the "that's what she said" jokes to the pro's.

My heart bleeds, Cracker.
I believe she said the exact opposite of that

Lol!
So anyway, what were we saying about James Franco? Has any one noticed that I am incredibly shallow? Lol
I dunno, but eating a sandwhich, while cleaning a toilet, sounds rather pleasant, compared to what we can expect to see him do in this movie.

That he's the prime candidate of portraying the late "Jeff Buckley" if a movie ever does arise?
I would watch him GNAW his leg off. Of course, I'd prefer he was gnawing on me, but hey, you can't have everything...
