London Film Festival 14th-29th October.... I'll be there and not here during that time, see you when I get back!
Anyone around and about London on Thursday 22nd dont forget the free stuff showing in Trafalgar square 6.30-8.30 on a massive inflatable screen. I'll be there!

I am now one of the two film guides on this here place. Pop by if you want to ask me anything or just chat about films!

Let us all get something clear here... Dooyoo is a review site. Review means giving your opinion on something. If your film summary is longer than your opinion on it then you'll probably get a SU from me. Anyone can find a plot summary anywhere, it is your opinion that makes all the difference.

A couple of challenges going this year for me.
First is really simple!
I want to see 100 movies at the cinema in 2009 and 365 in the year in total.

Total as of end of August 2009:
Cinema: 73
Total : 207

Second I am doing something called the 999 challenge. It was set up for books but... well I changed it to films, obviously. I have to choose 9 categories to see 9 films in in 2009... (see the 999 connection there :o) ) The idea being to challenge me to see stuff I wouldn't normally see. Everything has to be new stuff I've not seen before.

Categories are:
9 films in 9 different cinemas: total 9
9 films with animals in the title: 7
9 films in sub genres I have never seen a film in: 2
9 films directed by actors: 9
9 films from the '501 Must see films' book: 6
9 films chosen by my female friends, oh and my friend Colin who is upset I didnt let him choose some films for me: 6
9 films from 9 different foreign language countries: 9
9 films that have won one of the four main Oscar awards: 4
9 films chosen by top Dooyoo film reviewers: 5

I'll keep it updated every month so you know how well I am doing... if you are in the slightest bit interested!

defitnetley, best spelling seen so far of this word!
