    Pan's Labyrinth

    I have watched it and enjoyed it a lot although the others I was with seemed less sure. The film is sort of disturbing and the advertising in England had it as a dark fairy tale. Well it is dark but wouldnt let a kid anywhere near the film. Recommended as it is different to lot out there at the moment.
  2. Really hoping someone can help. I have a video that is in an avi file that needs the XVID codec. Is there anyway I can convert this file so that is plays on the stanard windows media set up. The reason I ask is that I have a video clip that I need to show at work but it wont run without the codec (and loading the codec at work is not an option). If anyone has a free and easy to use program they can direct me too I would be forever grateful.

    Favorite Tribute Video

    Justr wanted to say thanks for the uploads, most appreciated
  6. So far this series has been a response for me to those who say test cricket is dying and one day is the way forward. Following the closest test matches in years one after the other is killing me with the tension. I am praying for five days of rain at the oval now.
  7. Wow, if Englands bowlers can keep up the pressure tomorrow should be interesting. I know I shouldnt but I am really starting to believe that the Ashes might finally have a chance of coming home.
  8. That was heart wrenching to watch England almost win. Trent Bridge has been good to the Australians in the past so I am now a little worried. If only Pieterson could catch.

    Can Australia do it for the 10th time?

    Well the third test match is going well and so I am getting far to excited. Not wanting to count chickens but if we went 2 - 1 it would be amazing and lead to the last two test matches being very intense.
  10. If you can get a multi region DVD player then the region 2 DVD is going for around £8 which is about $12 I think.

    This Could Have Been Awkward

    Just to point out something that people often forget. While not condoning slavery in any form myslef (just to be clear). There are issues where slavery exists in the third world in which the slave is supported by the slave owner, often the owners supply the slaves with land to work. Once they have been freed normally under western NGO pressure to the government they kick the former slaves off the land they own and so while technically freer they have no money, no land and no hope of working. I noticed in the parts of the article quoted there was no mention of money to help set up the freed slaves in their own businesses or money for land redistribution either. What I am trying to say is that people often talk about freeing slaves as though that is the end of it but normally that is only the first step because without financial help and general support you will find the situation where the freed slaves will try and sell themselves back to their former owners. Just food for thought.

    JoeDirt's old school match thread

    Thirded, although was not the biggest fan of the ending, it has to be one of my personal favourites as I really got into the Rock HHH fued.

    The Story of XTREME PRO WRESTLING

    Its interesting to see what was going on at the time and thanks for taking the time to put it all down. As for feedback, any chance of perhaps putting a few links into the text for images and such like. I now it is a quirk of mine but I find it is nice to be able to see a link to a picture of a person mentioned to help visualise them.
