There are some things you know that just stay at the back of your head. Then there are those kinds of knowledge that you use in your everyday life - like crossing road when car is speeding really really fast = bad.
I was just watching Sorority Row. I can't say I've been wanting to watch it for some time or that I even knew what kind of movie it was, but I watched it none the less. To quote Mr. English: "It has to be the worst pile of tripe I've ever seen in my life". It's predictable, it's flimsy and, although it hurts me, I have to admit that it was a rather entertaining movie. You know, the way Scream is entertaining. This is where I get to the point about how some knowledge gets stored. You see, there is one point in the movie that really gets to me (well several really, but one in particular). They're in the woods and they can't get any reception on their cell phones so they can't call the police. I get that. I respect that. It makes sense. IF it wasn't for the fact that ALL American cell phones UNDER LAW must be able to call 911 at any time. That means without reception, without a sim card and without money. I know it's a small thing, but in a movie where the cell phone is sort of central you'd think they'd actually make it right. How do I know this by the way? From QI - Stephen Fry never lies.
And now for something completely different. Valentine - the only horror movie I've seen at the cinema and the only movie I've yawned at because it bored me so much.
