I saw this at the weekend was just wondering if anybody else has seen it ?

The story is simple, a record company is looking for new ideas so an assistant (Jonah Hill) suggests having a anniversary show for Aldous Snow (Russell Brand) at the Greek Theatre. They accept so Jonah Hill has 72 hours to get out of control Rock Star to the venue.

Trailer: http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi288228377/

I thought it was a great film, lots of funny moments. P Diddy was great as the Record company boss. Russell Brand was great as Aldous snow and I think added alot more to the character than seen in Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
The whole bit with the Jeffrey and the furry walls was great. I think this was so much better than the crap comedies that have come out this year like Grown ups or Death at a Funeral.
I have not seen any DVD Rips of it so I guess you will have to watch it the old fashioned way.

I wanted to go watch this at the cinema but couldn't find anyone else to come with me as they either had no money or no interest in the film. Inception has caught my eye recently though, so I will make that a priority at the movies first and then watch Get Him To The Greek another time.

Also, Death At A Funeral was shit, and this is coming from someone who generally loves black comedians etc.

I would have made an Inception topic a while back Nemphtis but i just never got round to it. I thought it was a fantastic film, though my dad and sister thought it was 'ok'. Alot of people who don't like it are because they're fucking retards that can't comprehend the plot - but my dad and sis just said they didnt think the narrative gave enough time to the elements besides the plot and that the 'twist' wasn't that great. Although i would argue that the film was never designed to have a twist but is actually more of a straight-up heist movie with the extended metaphor of 'dreams' giving you food for thought at the end of the film. So anyway i'll be interested in what your view is on it when you see it , and i definitly reccomend it being the first movie you see this summer.

As for Get Him To The Greek i was unsure of it when i saw the ads but if George gives it the thumbs up then i guess i'll have to go see it with my mates this weekend or something. I did really like Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

I have been meaning to watch Inception , need to find someone who wants to see it. I have heard that it is great but I also know that a few critics and people have said its shit so will have to see, I think it looks good.
Get Him To The Great is a good mindless comedy they havent been that many good ones this year. What did people think of Cop Out, Hot Tube Time machine and Date Night

Hot Tub was okay, Cop Out was quite amusing, I only just watched it a few days ago. I've not seen Date Night though. If you didn't live on the other side of London we could have gone to watch Inception together, badly want to see that film before some asshole spoils the ending for me.

Yea I have been doing well to avoid spoilers. If you still have not seen it by the time I get back from holiday ( in 10 days time) we should just go watch it. If I take the bus it only takes me about 40mins to an hour to get to wood green. I am sure there are quicker ways but screw it, I want to see this film on a big screen and all my friends are to clueless to see it.
