Movies:

humm, let me think what films do i like, well there is SCARFACE, THE GODFATHER (1&2 only), CASINO, GOODFELLAS - are you getting the theme here?
I also like LORD OF THE RINGS, HARRY POTTER, FINDING NEMO (in fact i like all the Pixer films)
But my bestest film ever is STAR WARS - May the force be with us all.

Television:

This week I am mostly watching Lost, Prison Break, Skins, Ugly Betty, Desperate Housewifes,
and a great programe on the discovery channel called "How its Made" which shows how things are made, yesterday I watched how Tin Cans are made - Brilliant!

Ooo Ooo Ooo, I have to mention one of the best ever television programes FIREFLY Its a great sci-fi/western, from the same guy who done Buffy. The idiots at fox cancelled it half way through the first season. But if you can get a copy of it on DVD its well worth it.
