Why do I never learn?

Give in to your arthouse cinema passion, Swoop. You know you want it. ;)

Lol. I think that's more video art than 'film' per se. I can go for some of that stuff, but mostly prefer actual narrative films. Contrary to the presumptions of some, I'm not totally immune to boredom. :lol:

Predestination.

One of the best time travel/paradox movies I've seen. Will either leave you thinking 'wow' or 'huh?'. Worth a watch if you like your sci-fi more cerebral than explosive.

The whole thing is basically 100 (or so) comedians telling the same joke in 100 different ways. I guess as an insight into the way different comedians' minds work, it's interesting, if a little repetitive after a while (which is why I never finished it). Given that they're all joking about child abuse, rape and scatology, it's certainly not for the easily offended!

I've got it at home or did have, haven't been through the DVD collection for a while & like David I couldn't get through all of it when I first got it.
