Shut the * up.

I had Marmite sandwiches today.

foot-loose wrote:1) Cracking film

Absolutely agreed, it's brilliant.

foot-loose wrote:2) Heath Ledger - much respect

Yeah, and not just because he's dead.. a superb performance.

foot-loose wrote:3) The imax filmed scenes were incredible

I sort of wish I'd seen the IMAX scenes, but Birmingham is a way to go for a film.

foot-loose wrote:4) It's 45 mins too long

It is long, but not unjustifiably.

foot-loose wrote:5) When going to the imax, don't sit in the front five rows - by the time the film was over, I felt I had been on a five month sea voyage... knackered.

I wouldn't sit in the front five rows at any cinema.. towards the middle is always best.

We didn't have a choice of seat unfortunatly. The middle near the back would have been my preference.

Thats just reminded me actually, the first time I saw it I was sat on the end and what with it being a long film - when it came time to get up (in order to let the others out) my legs were glued in 'sit down' position, I almost fell over some poor lass on the steps because my legs absolutely would not bend/balance that quickly. I'm never sitting on the end ever again.

A 'dancing Marmite emoticon' is going a bit far. Marmite is very nice though, and as you rightly point out, with cheese in a sandwich is delicious.

Toasted crumpet, Marmite, topped with cottage cheese. I used to have that when I was dieting, and i still love it.

Why would you want to have Andy B's dog? Apart from the fact it's the cutest little thing in the world.

As a child I watched as my older sisters fooled a young neighbour girl into thinking it was a chocolate icelolly they were offering her. She was quite unhappy with the taste and soon discovered that wasn't chocolate! Sort of like how my face crumpled like a piece of wadded up tissue when I had a bite of toast smeared with a dab of marmite. *retch* As our reactions were similar, I'm convinced Foots' is right in his description.

How can you second and third it? Why are you carrying your motions? Why do you have a 'dancing marmite emotion'?

Stupid woman.

What? Does that even make sense?

The reason it's called Marmite is because of the vessel it is made in.

What we have learnt (or indeed proved) today is that if you want to win an argument, make sure you disagree with S4B.

No. What we've learnt is that S4B has an unusual interest in the vile substance known as 'marmite' -- so much so that she has a dancing emoticon of it.

Oh! It's all coming back in a rush! Do I recall Guinness marmite, S4? God! What a waste of Guinness! *shudder*

I recently purchased for Mrs B a limited edition champagne Marmite, which had a gold front label with I Love you on it. She didn't like it though, as it stained the sheets.

I don't like Guinness either, Guinness Marmite is delicious though. They shouldn't just have made it as a limited edition I've run out now.

He earned mine more when I watched the old Batman movie back. I've always thought Jack Nicholson did a fantastic job of playing The Joker and figured he would be a hard act to follow. Heath Ledger's performance makes Jack Nicholson's look amateur now. Although, admittedly its possible the older movie just hasn't aged well. I used to think Michael Keaton was a brilliant Batman, but Christian Bale's is miles better.
