Schindlers List. Very good movie but far, far, far too depressing for me to watch again. Why would i want to watch a film that makes me sad more than once?

May be sad but it's a brilliant film. Movies like that you just need to follow up with a comedy or a fun activity. I find it depends how you watch movies too. It definitely isn't a movie you throw on, on a rainy day or you'll end yourself

Thats what i try to do, but if you are trying to watch as many films as possible, horror films, original horror films, older films, foreign films, new to cinema, latest dvd releases, american tv series, british/uk tv series, original films and sci fi films it can turn out to be quite a lot. Although if i really liked a film i would buy it. I don't usually blind buy, but when i do the film is usually good.

Sometimes i will forget about a good film then see it on dvd in a shop or on tv and will buy or watch.

It's basically getting paid to go to college. Would never have happened in my day! lol

Anyway I agree that after seeing Requiem for a Dream (2000) in the cinema, I've never wanted to see it again.

Paid to make people stay on and do their A-levels basically.

I think it's a good choice the government are scrapping it, you still get to do A-Levels for FREE. I bet a large % spend their money on things other than school related items. All these people protesting about it, please...

I'm very grateful for it, but wouldn't protest it. School related things? I don't require a schoolbag or even pens, everything is provided, it is that good. And i found out today that the EMA is apparently different from the oens England and possibly the UK is scrapping and so we would still get it. Even if it was getting scrapped and we got paid no money the good thing about it is, by the time the government decided, we would have completed our two years.

I feel the same about The Road and Leaving Las Vegas.
