    Rubber was actually quite an excellent film. Maybe a bit pretentious in parts but a pretty good watch, and not for being outright awful.

    Kish, you obviously know of the AT-AT - the four legged thing - it is incredibly dear. I got it for £129.99 from Smyths of Chadwell Heath.

    It is a good toy, though, and has kept the little dude well entertained.

    To be fair I never had that (I think it only came out a little while ago) but I had a hefty Millenium Falcon and I don't remember it being that dear... Maybe that's why we never went on holidays when I was a kid though...

    Yeah I enjoyed it Ryan. You're right though it did seem to try too hard perhaps. 2010 was a goodyear for tire films teehee. I'm off work today and I've just started watching The Tournament with Robert Carlyle, looks like that could fall into the bad-but-good category.

    Kish, the AT-AT Walker first appeared in Empire Strikes Back. Do you remember the Snowspeeder wrapping the cable around its legs causing it to trip up?

    I had one of the originals when I was a kid. I must say that the new one is better than the one I had. Can't say the same for the figures, though!

    I'm a child of the 90's and they re-did all the figures and vehicles then - possibly to celebrate the vhs boxsets - I never had an At-At from that range though. I would have killed for one too! I had the Han Solo figure from the Empire Strikes Back, where he had the long sleeved jacket - he was the envy of my pals. We gave them all to charity a couple of years ago.

    Thanks Ponders, it's a while since we had one of these.

    1-What are you reading at the moment? Two at once, fiction/non-fiction, as I often do - The Devil's Star by Jo Nesbo. Much as I love the Millenium Trilogy, if only Larsson had got a translator as good as this...and Cries Unheard by Gitta Sereny about Mary Bell, scarier than any fiction.
    2-What film did you last watch on television or at the cinema? Tales of Ordinary Madness, starring Ben Gazarra one of my favourite actors, who passed away last week. I also recommend to all Addicks Anatomy of a Murder and Killing of a Chinese Bookie - this guy didn't do 'normal' or 'boring'.
    3-What did you have for dinner last night/tonight? Last night, Tuna, Feta, Olives - tonight, Fillet Steak, Curly Fries, Onion Rings. My one red meat meal this month. Yum!
    4-What was the last album you listened to? Voodoo Chic by Helicopter Girl, scandalously overlooked IMO, Jackie Joyce's voice is extraordinary.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxMf-2o36Oc&feature=related

    5-Name and location of the last pub/club you visited? The Wheatpieces in Tewkes, Hungry Horse, you know exactly what you're getting, watching Swindon/Barnet, pint of Stowford and a bucket of buffalo wings.
    6-Brief outline of your last dream? Too ghastly to tell you - I dream in full colour, with smell, taste and texture. Sometimes this is wonderful <devil> sometimes it's not...
    7-Who should be next England manager? Psycho. Yes, I know he won't do it but I think it's our only chance of getting some of these overpaid, underperforming t*ssers out of the side.
    8-Destination of your next Summer holiday? St. Valery-sur-Somme, France. Serenely beautiful, wonderfully peaceful - my second home.
    9-Last purchase over £100? New telly in the January sales, after my old one packed up - £150 off, yee-hah!
    10-Celebrity you would most love to duff-up? Don't do duffing-up, but I'd like to see the Murdochs and their vile empire totally destroyed.
