I must admit to actually watching this for the first time this airing, but that was mainly because I’d caught half the movie in Italian on January 1st when I was over there, so I wanted to see what I’d missed! I don’t have a people meter, though, so I didn’t contribute to the ratings

Woah! Channel Ten needs to f***ing calm the f**k down. I think they’ve really got their money’s worth with About a Boy, maybe they should try playing a few other classics like School of Rock or Mean Girls. Oh thats right, they already play them every f***ing second…

Whats wrong with the Back to the Future trilogy? I love them.
…But yes, Ten needs to add some more movies to their playlist, or at least make sure its set to random.

@ Gaius Baltar

No, I wasn’t confused because I don’t even have pay TV. :-/

Run Lola Run was definitely on Channel 10. I remember it was quite late, but it was the first time I watched it all the way through.

Off-topic. Pet hate.
“I am a huge fan of this film, and would of known”
Please. It’s ‘would have.’ FFS.

yes gaius don’t get your panties in a twist, i was not trying to be nasty so why are you? i was simply trying to state the truth. and i didn’t spend good money on it cos i don’t think it was that great a film, i have hundreds of dvds which i have paid for, and now i own everything i think is worth my money except new stuff as it comes out. but there are other films that come on tv that i wouldn’t mind having but not enough to spend money, $1 for a blank dvd is a lot less than $15 especially when the number of movies starts to add up. and it is perfectly legal so i feel no guilt at all, some downloading is illegal but recording off tv is not so why should i not utilise the equipment i spent good money on.

And on topic, yes this movie is woefully paltry and overplayed. I’m pretty sure someone said this movie’s been played 5 times in the past 3 years, there’s no way its that low, its on at least once every 3 months. And yes it is terrible. And for once I seem to agree with Knoxoverstreet, Coming to America and Kindergarten Cop are great films to be repeated, I haven’t seen either of them on in quite a while.

Quit being mean Gaius. RLR isn’t even that good a film, as far as German films go Goodbye Lenin! is superior in every aspect. No need to be so spiteful

@bindi

You must think you are smart eh? Not only because you reckon I should be wiping egg off my face right about now because I was supposedly wrong about channel 10 and whether they aired a German Film which has subtitles but also, you “recorded it and burnt it to dvd”.
Why? The dvd with proper dvd art can be bought for about $15 or so at jbhifi.
