Thought that smilie was appropriate considering the content of my post..

I saw Men in Black after reading a whole bunch of unhappy to lukewarm reviews for it, and enjoyed myself thoroughly. Perhaps because I saw less clips this time round than for MIB1, which I saw, I think half-the film, through all that hype and behind the scenes stuff. I thought it a fun, popcorny movie, and Will Smith and Tommy Lee still make an amusing partnership, and the dog rocks.
Haven't seen the others, though I am looking forward to seeing Signs.

5. Perdido Street Station, by China Mieville.
Hell yeah you do. Best Fantasy Ever.

4. Men In Black II (sue me).
pop MIB in the video. Cangratulations! You have just seen a superior version of MIB2.

5. The Bourne Identity
Saw this yesterday. Rock solid spy-tastic fun.

You know I'm really not looking forwards to Signs. Some of the buzz I've picked up of it is rather downbeat. Plus I heard a spoiler that just irritates me no end. Bleh.
