If there's one thing I can't stand, it's people who can't take any criticism of the films they like - especially when they write to you with an atrociously cobbled together piece of illiterate shite like that guy! Will we ever top Ron, I wonder? I watched Psycho III as soon as I got up this morning, which meant that I completely forgot about Who until I read your post just now - oops! The problem with Blakes 7 is that I started watching it on TV when BBC2 repeated it, then started buying the vids to watch it and found that there weren't that many around, then stopped buying the vids because I don't want to replace them all on DVD... so I'm in limbo with that one right now. It is a good show though. -- Griff's Movie Review Message Board

In reply to: Rich 's message, "Yes, you are shit. The fans say Invisible Enemy is cack - I say it's not so bad. But be prepared to see a five-foot prawn waddling around, that's all. Are you watching Blake's 7? I see they're showing season three at the moment. I've actually got nearly every single episode of season three, they're well worth watching... I've got another IMDb post marked "Woody Allen" to read now... it hadn't better piss me off again! Grrrrrrrrrr!" on 18:39:46 06/09/01 Sat

Cheers Grigg, I thought it was me overreacting. What really bugs me is when they try to criticise your style of writing, then you read theirs and it's like "This film was way way cool LOL anyway I gotta go pee bye". Fucking wankers. Maybe he'll write back, looking for a rumble. Anyway, yeah, Blake's 7... I got the vids second-hand, too (the ones with the illustrated as opposed to photo covers, right?)... yeah, I only need to get one episode from series three and about four from series four... though I haven't seen any of series two, couldn't get those ones at all... (NT) -- Rich, 10:34:15 06/10/01 Sun
- Oh, yeah, we'll never be able to top Ron either... I wonder if he'll stay the distance in the Big Grigger household? (NT) -- Rich, 10:37:09 06/10/01 Sun
  - I was tired last night so I fell asleep during Trois Couleurs Bleu, so I'll finish that today. It was better than I remembered, though still probably the slowest and least accessible of the three.. don't be put off if you don't like it, Grigg, cos the others are different and better. And after all, that group called themselves Three Colours Red and not Blue or White, didn't they? But it is a French film which means that you get ponderous close-ups on cup of tea and no flying cars. Sorry. Top quote from the first: "Monsieur, may I borrow your chat?" (NT) -- Rich, 10:59:25 06/10/01 Sun
    - I had to go through the archives to get my Bridget Jones review to whore to the IMDb... I never realised before that Jim had posted his Jacko reviews/complimented my Big Grigger article... how did I miss those? It won't let you reply once they've gone into the archives, either... but you were talking shite, Jim Jimmer, rest assured on that. Hey, Grigg, we've totally forgotten about our Universal site, haven't we? Good to see that you couldn't stick at a Red Dwarf site either... (NT) -- Rich, 11:17:42 06/10/01 Sun
      - Come on, c**t lips, get on the board! How does that logic game with the jugs of water in Diet Hard With A Vengeance work btw? I couldn't make out the explanation... (NT) -- Confused Rich, 11:42:00 06/10/01 Sun
        Actually I just suffered Dracula for the third time to do a review for our site, so it's still hovering about... I guess as much as I like Red Dwarf it doesn't set off that spark to make me want to write about it - either that or I just can't be arsed. I can never remember the Vengeance water jugs trick either - I rewound it once to figure it out slowly and it does work, but I'm buggered if I can remember how. Cracking film though. (NT) -- Griff, 12:06:53 06/10/01 Sun
        Oh yeah, you cheeky bitch, I saw a French films yesterday - Le Diner de Cons (***1/2) - and managed to make it to the end despite the lack of flying cars! Up yours! Well, can't sit around here all day chatting, I've got to fit another film in before Teen Wolf Too on Sci-Fi - you know, on Sky - at 2. Godawful film, but I'm watching the original this week and I wanna do both reviews. So poo off! (NT) -- Griff, 12:10:40 06/10/01 Sun
        Same here... I guess Red Dwarf just doesn't have the depth or character building to make me want to complete my site... (Shame, I had a feature as well - "The Worst of Red Dwarf" chronicling the ten shiteist things about it - No.1 was Danny John Jule's "Tongue Tied" single). And did I mention that I've seen nearly all of season three and four of Blake's 7 except for... you know, just three or four of them? You know? (NT) -- Rich, 16:39:05 06/10/01 Sun
        Aren't Kate Winslet's tits great? (NT) -- Rich, 17:17:35 06/10/01 Sun
        They're fantastic, what have you been watching...? (NT) -- Griff, 17:21:33 06/10/01 Sun
        Nuthin', I've just been thinkin' about 'em, that's all. Did I mention that I have all of season three/four Blake's 7 except for a few episodes? (NT) -- Rich, 17:53:36 06/10/01 Sun
        Aren't you gonna read my Dracula review then...? (NT) -- Griff, 18:05:10 06/10/01 Sun
