This may only be semi serious, but there's a lot of truth in it. The great thing about having a passion like supporting a football team is that it makes you feel alive. If I stopped jumping for joy when a Derby goal hits the back of the net, or if I felt perfectly comfortable watching a goal drought-suffering Chris Martin step up to an equalising penalty against the league leaders, I'd absolutely seek help.
Right now, I live for the football at the weekend. And it still makes me feel alive. That puts me at ease quite a lot. Even the heartache at Wembley is an experience I wouldn't undo, because it was an experience of raw emotion and I'd hate to lose that.
Always enjoy the little things.
It works for me.

Honest Indian I used to think it was a load of hoakum and blokes in particular should grow some, I have now come to realise that I am decidedly wrong in my opinions.

Why not go to the cinema and experience it on the giant screen with big surround sound as intended? Make an event of it!
As someone who works in the creative industries, I despair of internet piracy and those who make use of it. If everyone had the same approach to copyright theft, there wouldn't be any movies. For the amount of work that goes into them, books and films are incredibly good value. Keep the purges coming, I say!
I have not been to the flics for about twenty years.
May be better for your industry if actors where treated like they where in Shakespeare's time, about on the same level as a dustman, instead of poncing about like royalty earning millions per film.
Just joking

Guess you're talking about The Martian, Ovis? I missed Kermode's review. I felt the lack of drama was a fault with the book too, but exaccerbated by having to cut scenes to fit the film. Also, many of the Mars terrain long shots looked like models. When you think back to Ridley Scott doing Blade Runner and that opening sequence when the cityscape looked vast and real, it was a big contrast for me with the Mars vehicle looking like a little dinky toy.
I will watch it as soon as I can find a
torrent, somewhere to acquire it, there has been a purge again on sites this week. -
Saw The Martian on Sunday. Didn't think 3D added much (when I really expected it to). It was also fascinating to see how ruthlessly they cut the book to make the film easy to follow, even though I felt it led to everything being a bit too easy for Mark Watney. It was polished and well rounded but I felt lacked drama, so I'd give it 7.5.
Have the premiere of something called Bone Tomahawk on Saturday - will report back!
Kermode said it was so good he could have watched it again right away.
