Ditto.

"I'm a huge fan of Toy Story 2 though - I think it's superior to the original."

Ditto. Except that damn cowgirl. Tried to give her depth by being the "abandoned" ass or something, didn't work and she was just irritating. But Toy Story 2 was funnier, I'm sure. The bit where original Buzz plays ball with his Dad cracked me up so badly in the cinema, I'm still not sure why it makes me laugh so much.

"Maybe it's because me and 'career' just don't go!"

Ditto. Still after some non-society way of creating money.

Saw The Incredibles at the weekend, and that was far better than I had expected it to be. I'm a huge fan of Toy Story 2 though - I think it's superior to the original. I'd put Finding Nemo in fromt of Monsters Inc - after a couple of viewings I got kinda bored of Monsters Inc. To be honest it was the big blue monster, I forget his name, his work ethic - I just thought it was really sad, one guy so focused on his stupid job, staying late. Maybe it's because me and 'career' just don't go!

I still haven't seen Bug Life.

I've got it on DVD somewhere but I've never got around to watching it. Strange as I've bought most the Pixar films on DVD and watched them over and over, but I've never watched Bugs Life even once.

"Yojimbo"
Akira Kurosawa. Quite possibly the most frightning swordplay I've ever seen. You like Seven Samuri? Yojimbo has been remade as "A fistfull of dollars" and "Last man standing". Check it out. It's nearly 45 years old now. But still fantastic.

Now I want to see Monsters Inc again. Bugs Life I saw not so long ago, so that can wait for a tiny bit more.

Bugs Life was Seven Samuari with bugs? Possibly.. kinda. Another film I want to watch again. And Magnificent Seven for the hell of it too.

Must've not read that "mom" bit properly :)

Really did enjoy the film and kept me entertained throughout. But I also loved Finding Nemo because of the seagulls and 'whale talk' among other things.

Damn. What gender are mums again?.. I seem to have forgotten.

Great film.

There's two thing I love about it.

1) Boo. A non irritating kid in a movie, mostly making me go "awwwww", esp when she's disguised as the monster
2) The whole boogeyman in the closet thing. I can see that one movie making legions of kids sleeping easier at night.
