Repeats of repeats of repeats of election coverage...... it was better the first time.

The Battle of the Somme (1916)
Allegedly no movie before Star Wars broke the viewer record in Britain for this one.

Obama's 2004 Convention speech.
It's remarkable to see both the differences and the similarities to today.
All the important themes are there but he looked and sounded much much younger then (he still looks young today).
He also spoke much faster and with a higher voice.
I also understand why this speech made him famous instantly.

Either Midsomer Murders or Have I got News for you, depending on whether I've seen the first before or not.

That's one piece from my son's concert last night. I can shamelessly plug the rest of it (I'm still uploading it) if you really want to see/hear it.

Despite my obvious bias, I have to say that IMO it wasn't too shabby for a middle school orchestra. ^__^

The Coulor of Magic (now on a regular DVD, not youtube clips)

Idiocracy

[Swatopluk]

Herr Arnes Pengar (1919), an adaption of a story* by Selma Lagerlöf (the author of Nils Holgersson for the ignorants among us  )
The film is quoted as being of influence on Sergej Eisenstein (who clearly coped the final scene in the finale of the first part of Zar Ivan Grosny)

*the story title is slighlty different: Herr Arnes penningar

Torchwood Series 1 on DVD. Didn't get into it on the box until series 2 and waited for the price to fall.

Beagle does his best to save Woolworths.....

Having missed the whole sorry saga of Strictly Come Dancing, the announcement of the winning pair. Possibly there is some word or other which describes this kind of activity - a prurient interest in winners with no interest in the "game", but if so, I don't know it, and if not, there should be.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (the most recent anime version of the story. There were several movies, TV series etc. in the past already)

After a mysterious accident Matako gains the ability to jump back in time. At first it is just fun (repeating failed tests, occupying a Karaoke box forever on a single charge, eating the favorite pudding again and again...) but her meddling turns out to have potentially fatal side effects.
