<li>The Da Vinci Code</li>
<li>Pirates Of The Caribean: Dead Man's Chest</li>
<li>Brief Rant About Val Kilmer<br />
"If you put Val Kilmer in a room with lots of pine furniture, it's fair to say the pine furniture would act him off screen. It's not that he's a bad actor; it's that he's NOT an actor. There are films with Val Kilmer in them which don't completely suck, but they're the ones where Val's not in them very much"</li>
<li>Proof (for his Gwenith Paltrow impression)</li>
<li>Ice Age 2: The Meltdown ("symptomatic of the death of narrative cinema")<br />
I havn't been listening to them for very long, so I've never heard the Star Wars ones, or the orrigional POTC. I would love to hear his review of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre having heard his hatred of the prequal. Also didn't catch the Sex Lives Of The Potatoe Men.<br />
I really want some douch-bag to remake The Excorsist: I think Mark would probably have a stroke - either while watching it or while reviewing it.</li>

<p dir="auto">His sex and the city 2 review is a wonderful 15 minutes of listening. Must have listened to it ten times by now. Loads of quotes are top notch.<br />
..just a bunch of imperialist american pigdogs of the highest order<br />
..boils down all of women's lib into the right to by expensive shoes<br />
.if we were in a SATC movie we would be the plebs, the help<br />
.we are supposed to feel sorry for these people, SORRY???.<br />
it was just an repulsive orgy of dripping wealth that made me want to be sick<br />
Best of all (on second viewing) the first ten words.<br />
"I am not going to have a rant about this!!!!!!!!!!"<br />

<p dir="auto">The Transformers one was pretty spot-on as far as I'm concerned. Just watched the film for the second time and it's bad, I reckon. No amount of special effects could save it when the foundations of the film is one-dimentional, stereotypical crap.<br />

<p dir="auto">Personally, I loved his defence of<br />
Howard the Duck<br />
, saying how people complained mainly about the fact you could tell it was a man in a duck suit therefore they were essentially saying "it doesn't look like a real interstellar duck!"</p>
