Beating my friend Jason 23 times has to be up there with the best. The 3 games I lost to him probably the worst. :-)

Do you know how it works?

‘Noticing the aspect’ as Wittgenstein described it, perhaps?

Most of the people that I game have bad sportsmanship.  They won't say hi, or good game, or even play to have fun.

I loved that movie The Worlds Fastest Indian and is put Invercargill on the map.

I'd describe Anthony Hopkins acting as.. so good that he makes the other actors look like actors; where he owns the part, they act the part.

Not a completely acurate observation, given that I havn't taken a long look at all of the co-stars he's worked next to, but he's certainly an impressive actor.

The 400 Blows, Strangers on a Train, Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), The Day the Earth Stood Still, Night of the Living Dead, Guerrilla: The Taking of Patricia Hearst (my favorite doc), Pulp Fiction, The Searchers"


Some interesting titles there!

Great movie...

What was the chess piece used as the "reality check" by the young girl? I think it was a bishop?

Even that movie maintains the relevance this sub-topic to the "mother" thread.

In the words of the Philosopher... "All roads lead to Chess".

Wow ... Who said that ?

I remember the piece as a bishop (good memory btw) :)

I have seen Shutter Island as well with Leonardo Dicaprio as the hero.

Both are great movies and what I love of them is the ending how the leave you confused...

My favourite line from Shutter Island is "Is it better to live as a monster or die as a human being"
