Still up on vimeo and looks incredible
Took the offspring to watch How To Train Your Dragon 2 last night, it was brilliant! Highly recommended for kids and adults.
spent the rest of the day running around arguing who was going to be the key master and who was the gate keeper!
Still, despite my self-justification, I feel I'm missing out. Just £4-5 a film for something that generally disappoints is a bit of a hurdle to enjoyment or taking a punt. Are there any alternatives that don't involve piracy or watching via your computer (mine is a work one - and our IT policy is getting ever more stringent)?

Not sure what packages they offer for new members, but I pay a smidge under £8 for both online (which I know doesn't suit you) and dvd rental a month. The rental is limited only by how quickly I can watch a film and return it. A combination of rental and online viewing and its approx a quid a film. May be worth a butchers, and seem to offer more than Netflix.
finally FINALLY got round to watching Dallas Buyers Club last night, great film. Sean Penn used to be my anti Hollywood hero, Mathew McConaughey is stepping up to the challenge nicely, good in Mud and good in this.
I watched Divergent at the weekend .. It was like a super cheesy teen thing
Thanks saved me buying it.
Argh, I watched Divergent at the weekend. From the way it was marketed, I was not expecting it to be quite so clearly not for adults.
Calvary starring Brendan Gleeson. I think this was produced and directed by the same team as The Guard. This is just as good but darker. Gleeson is superb as a priest carrying the world and the church on his shoulders. I was quite moved...
The clue is that it's the film version of the first book in a YA series.
