I was so gutted I didn't see that at the cinema. I'm going to get it on DVD soon.

Last week I saw Harry Potter 5. Funny, the 5th book was my fav book, but I think the 5th film was the worst film. SO much was cut, some stuff was changed for the worse, the book really got bad treatment IMO.

I got Hot Fuzz on DVd a few weeks ago, have watched it twice, and watched all the extras. It is an awesome film, a great mix of parody/staire, good one-liners, and good action. Gorey, so it isn't for everyone, but it's a good flick, and has He-Man references, which is great for the retro coolness.
Oddly, OOTP was the shortest film, despite being the longest book. Even PS (not the bloody Sorceror's Stone, I refuse to call it by that abomination) was 20 minutes longer. I really wish they hadn't cut like 85% of the Department of Mysteries battle, with the spooky locked love room, the time chamber ,space chamber ,and the different death chamber with the pit.

So THAT's what the power of Greyskull meant. I thought it was a running gag curse throughought SOTD (which I haven't seen) and the director's other films.
