Without participation, democracy crumbles and fails. If you participate, you win, and the future is yours.

So I haven’t been to the auld kino in ages:”Howl’s Moving Castle(on the 24th of Oct)” but I’m not sure what I want to go see. Below is a list of the films I’d see that are showing tonight. So vote for whatever one you think I shouold go see. I may turn up at the kino and find out the timing is wrong, but we’ll have to wait and see about that. So go, vote! Participation is Mandatory! By reading this post you have agreed to vote, honestly, this is a totally legal document and stuff.

Here’s hoping the site aint over run with pop-ups because I’m using free code…

EDIT okay, we’ve switched the free poll thingy, and removed Elizabethtown cause NM wants to go see that next week. Sides, I’ve heard it’s very crap.

Voting Over - Wallace & Gromit and The Brothers Grimm tied for first place. I went to see W&G. Was very amusing

Then again, opening with Julius Caesar in Gaul there was bound to be more than a little death and bloodshed. The opening battle shows the disciplined manner of Roman fighting, all the legion fighting as one, effeciently and in concert. But there is always one, isn’t there, and in this case it is Titus Pullo. Drunk, he fights his way through the line and into the midst of the Gauls, forcing his commander Lucius Vorenus to mount a rescue. Don’t think that Pullo is grateful, instead he is insulted when Vorenus orders his “drunken soldier” back into line and decks him. Thereby earning himself a whipping and some time in prison, only being released when Mark Antony sends Vorenus to find Caeser’s stolen eagle, the symbol of the glory of Rome.
