    I keep a 1080p copy on me at all times. You never know when you might need a bit of Bodhi's basic dog psychology.

    If you want the ultimate, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price. It's not tragic to die doing what you love.<br><br>
    Is this nerdy enough for you Nepia? 🙂

    <p>It came out when I was at uni in Waikato, so it was a movie about utter loser surfers, quoted by guys who spent all their uni time at Raglan surfing, talking about the zen of surfing, before a life working in Pack & Save. That clouded my judgement.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And even then a lot of that 80's / 90's looks reeeeeally bad now, I loved Tom Gun, but watching it now its hard not to think "this is without doubt the gayest thing I have ever seen"</p>

    <p>Fruitvale Station: This was a great movie. It had been recommended to me a bunch of times but lived up to the hype.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It's not a fast paced movie though so if you don't like slow movers this may not be the movie for you.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>If you've heard the story:</p>
    <p>[spoiler] It's basically just what Oscar does in the day before he gets killed at Fruitvale Station. And then the last 20 odd minutes deals with the incident - it was quite hard watching really [/spoiler]</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The star of the movie is Michael B Jordan, who was Wallace on The Wire and was in Friday Night Lights last few seasons. I think he's the new Denzel.</p>

    <p>I finally saw it last night. I like the series and will probably line-up-and-pay to see the next installment, but it's feeling like it's treading water. 6.5/10 </p>

    <p>Seems like Marvel and Wheddon were fighting over the final cut, so some of the movie didn't make sense as it was cut. Thor's arc in particular.</p>

    <p>I actually liked it a touch better than the first (which I loved) as there seemed to be more story to it and we learnt more about the characters (even more so than their individual movies)</p>
