    F*cksake, I can't actually get up before 11.30. No idea what's wrong with me. Alarms go off, I just switch that sh't off and sleep for another few hours and still wake up exhausted.

    im in the exact same situation sleeping pattern too, need something to force me to change it i.e early morning work or a flight to catch.

    this place has gone really quiet since Des's ban and Neils being made do work, though the latter still finds a way in here

    do you think that maybe this is why you couldnt get up until late - maybe, just an idea

    Well that explains today but I've been like this for months. College suffered terribly towards the end of the year.

    Please tell me you managed to slip off during work to see it and nobody noticed. I need someone to look up to.....:pac:

    Right. That's it. I'm going to go and see what this Dark Knight malarkey is all about.

    tbh, i think you should recieve a ban for having not seen it already.

    im in the same boat too. Last night didn't sleep till almost 5. Didn't even have much of a lie in yesterday, was up by 10. Its not an oversleepign thing or anything for me, i still only sleep about 7hours, maybe 8 if im very lucky, but i just cant get to sleep at night regardless how tired i feel, until it gets to a ridiculous hour. Gets very annoying. Even excercise doesn't seem to be helping much, playing football at least 3 times a week at the moment, running 1 or 2 more days on top of it.

    Afternoon all.

    Just in from training. Bloody 8km run along the coast road uphill most of the way. Not feelin so good now :(

    You're calling for too many bans of late. It is YOU who should be banned.

    And if there's one reason I haven't seen TDK thus far it is because I try not to buy into hype. I like waiting til it dies down and going and enjoying it instead of feeling compelled to like it because its the talk of the town or dislike for the very same reason. What's the rush?

    TDK was a bit too comic book for my likings, Batman Begins was darker. And Katie Holmes really let herself go between the 2 films.

    Yea I know, what I meant to say was Rachel Dawes really let herself go.

    Dont get me wrong, Gyllenhal can be hot but she really wasnt in TDK.

    Think that's his point - sort of. As in Holmes is arguably hotter than Gyllenhal.

    At least I hope he meant that. :confused:

    EDIT - Nevermind.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Gyllenhal looked like a swamp pig in TDK. I finally found a celebrity i wouldnt go near if the opportunity arose.


    Katie Holmes wins by default!




    And Al, Im goin again this weekend, is it as good for Round 2?!

    Its abit of a catch 22 though, Gyllenhal is by far the better actor but Katie looks so damm hot. :) Although I did watch Batman Begins the other night and Katie really annoyed me in every scene she was in, thank God for the mute button. :pac:

    Going for my second viewing this week too, cant wait. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Im going to see it for the 5th time tonight....

    I dont know if that deserves a happy or sad face. I think I know the script word for word now.

    Maggie G is a good actress but she's wrecked.


    Katie is hot but annoying. Plus the fact that she's been within Tom Cruise's vicinity knocks her down another peg or two. Amd she's STILL hotter than Maggie. You got it in one!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,552 ✭✭✭✭GuanYin


    I still can't forgive Katie Holmes (and her co-stars) for her part in Dawson's Creek and the effect on teen/20-something dating culture at the time.

    Throw that in with her having anything to do with Tom Cruise, and worse still, marrying him, and she can GET OUT!

    On the topic of movies,Lost in Translation was on the other night and reminded me of how bad it was.I went to see it in the cinema and it was terrible,I am not sure why it gets mentioned as a great movie and I think it won a few Oscars.

    Maybe I just did not get it.What did you lot think of it.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    I liked Holmes in "Go". Thought it was a decent movie.

    i liked it..:o
    Scarlett is super hot.

    I putting it on the line here a bit, but i'd have Maggie Gyllenhall over Katie Holmes any day of the week.. Bring on the scorn.

    :eek: And your post had started out so well.

    As for Lost in Translation, it was ok, over rated imo.

    Maggie Gyllenhall in Secretary ftw!

    You'd wanna shut your ****ing mouth fairly sharpish.

    I love her.

    If you have not seen "Stranger Than Fiction", get it out, I defy any man not to fall in love with her in that film.

    Class scene(probably best to not watch if you have been dying to see the film!)

    Absolute gem of a movie that.

    Well, just back from it. 4/5. Very Good, but had a lot wrong with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭Mr Alan


    New single from Kings Of Leon, world exclusive, including intro from Caleb.

    Its called "Sex On Fire"



    Not too sure about it tbh. Some of the music is great, but that lyric is ****ing ridiculous.

    I was wondering what latitude you were residing at to be working at such unruly hours. But then I saw you actually live at the centre of the universe, which made everything perfectly clear... :pac:
