just my inner geek.....

To me the only star wars films are the original 3 (Star Wars, Empire strikes back and Return of the Jedi) sure some other films were made with star wars in the title but they were too awful to count. just like the matrix is only the one film.

If you're looking for a set of films of depth, nuance and shakespearean drama (and a fair touch of Dickens) then look no further than the festive masterpieces that are the Die Hard films

My vote is the Lord of the Rings trilogy..it its all of your check boxes of nuances, Shakespearean drama, and depth. I have the Star Wars (first three) set and the Lord of the Rings set. Nice to be able to watch them when the mood hits me.

Hi all. Just back from life coach and she's pleased with my progress. Abit disappointed that W has not sought any help but we cannot control her. W stayed in the home last night and all was quite enough. W seemed in bad form this am so I just steered clear and took kids to school.

Made my bid for father of the year award this morning by getting tickets for D13 to one direction in Dublin next October. She is delighted and so is her best friend. Only downside is I have to attend and I don't have a 1D t shirt !!!!!!!!!

Take care all

One Direction is a Step up from SClub7. All puns intended. You are going in the right direction too.

I'm sure gg will find you an interesting T-shirt to wear!

W knows she is missing out so go all of you and GAL, GAL, family GAL, personal GAL, Xmas GAL, movie GAL. If she is there she is, if not then no mind; her loss. Ignore the grumps, act as if she's sneezy not grumpy. Just go and have a good time.

I am visioning you all having fun
