    Very impressive Mrs-Moneypenny. You inspired me to go through my dvds over the weekend and I came up with 9 duplicates so they are now in the box for the cs.

    I haven't watched any more yet but going through them has renewed my desire to watch all the ones that I haven't yet watched :)

    Watched Jo nesbos headhunters last night, that can now be passed on to someone else with instructions not to be returned.
    It was ok good story and couldn't see where it was heading at times but all tied up and explained well by the end.

    Watched the last Harry Potter last night. Still one of my favourites.
    Also borrowed and watched The Hundred Foot Journey and Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. Both were brilliant

    Another couple watched and passed on
    Mud, (Matthew Mcconnolley and Reece Witherspoon) ok but a bit slow
    How I spent my summer vacation (Mel Gibson) really should have saved the space it's taken up in my house and the 1 1/2 hours of our lives we wasted watching this and just put it straight in the CS bag it was rubbish, so far fetched it was ridiculous.

    I really enjoyed Mud - the music soundtrack is superb as well.

    2 more watched and in the to go pile this weekend. Coach and Bling Dating. Coach was ok but a bit disappointing as it didn't seem to know what genre it was going for. Blind Dating was a lot better than I expected and was an enjoyable watch but is not one I can see watching again.

    Another one watched last night. Chaos with Jason Statham. Another ok sort of film. It was a bit slow tho the 1st 15-20 mins were very good and I quite liked the plot twists in it. Less action than I expected in a Jason Statham film tho and I was never sure what accent he was going for! Another one for the to go pile tho :)
