it was very off topic, and I wanted to talk about it more cus it sounded like a good film, so I split it.

I seem to remember something about it being a religious film (which makes sense) and something about people running round naked??? :shock: (can't be right?)

Don't thinjk I trust PS magazine film reviews anymore

I never really liked the Rat Pack movies. Though Dogma is probably the better one of all of them next to "Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back". :D

I see,Yeah it`s a comedy that tries to be serious sometimes,It`s based on catholicism.(Don`t remember naked people running around) Silent bob is like my favorite movie character,dude rocks;)
I`ve only seen those 2 movies RK,Liked them both:D
I heard chasing Amy was good but I haven`t seen it.

I think you`d really like Loki and Bartleby,judging from what I`ve seen of your character Solfius.
Chris Rock also makes a hell of a 13h apostle,I just can`t watch that movie enough:D

Well, I am Catholic and I understand a lot of the jokes that are more subtle and probably wouldn't pick out if you weren't Roman Catholic.

I didn't like "Chasing Amy" or "The Rat Pack" ones. If you really, really like "Dogma" you might like the others. As I said, I never really liked the movie series. I have some friends who love the Rat Pack movie series so that's the only reason why I ever saw all of the movies.

I love Monty Python.

Never heard of Fawlty Tower or the other one you mentioned, 'Allo (isn't that French slang or something?) Are they an English kinda thing? Maybe its just not popular around where I live.

Never seen that much of Monty Pyhon! :shock: Is is as popular as it is in America seeing that they are English and all?

Faulty towers like many English programs comes on PBS.
I think Faulty towers is on the national schedule while the Dr. Who that I watch is only shown in six cities.

The BBC has a BBCC or something that can be picked up on some digtal cabel and satellites.

Ab Fab was being rebroadcast on Comedy Central awhile back.

Fawlty Towers is essential veiwing for a taste of good english comedy, it starts John Cleese, hence the linke ot python. Python is very popular over here, it's just that i aint seen much of it at all, althoufght i'd like to

Dogma is a fantastic movie, the best thing is that a friend of mine, a strict christian also found it absolutely hularious! Which just goes to show it is harmless, funny tounge and cheek!
