Watching The Office (USA) now. Just watched Episode of Season 1 of the UK original, and the boss was so annoying, I couldn't stand it.
OMG, the US one also screams "wuzzaaaaaaaaa"...

No. The actor/writer, Ricky Gervais.

No. The actor/writer, Ricky Gervais. I don't mind him. But I'm ready to face prison for torturing and ultimately killing his character David Brent. The US character, in contrast, is even in some way likable. He's not an impossible bitch slap supermoron, just a moron who thinks he's funny and only sometimes goes beyond good taste, and has the guts to say jokes that bomb. Gee, aside from the moron thing, that's me! If I could only be someone's boss...

Doesn't look like the funniest film ever.
Watched Kung Fu Hustle the other night. Can't make my mind up if it was a classic, or a steaming pile of poo. Must admit, I'm leaning towards the latter.

I didn't like it.
Too obviously forced humour.

The King of Scotland, a must-watch. This man is a genius, and if he doesn't get an Oscar for this role then the Oscars aren't worth shit (which may still be the case).

Kingdom of Heaven. A PC history lesson, but when the elf gives the half time chat to the defenders off Jerusalem, I couldn't help thinking he should be the England manager. Lots of blood, snot, sword fights and bravado - enjoyable.

I liked Kingdom of Heaven too. Pretty accurate too for a Hollywood blockbuster.
I hope to see The Last King of Scotland sometime this week.
On my flight to Europe I couldn't sleep all that much so I saw:
Babel - very good. I liked it more than 21 grams, and almost as much as Amores Perros.
And then the duo of Clin Eastwood films from Iwo Jima. Both are really good. I'll definetly go and watch these on the big screen someday.
