[...] As you know Dear Listener I am a huge fan of Speed Racer – I actually think it’s kinda great, (which lead to quite a disagreement between Professor Doctor Gareth Higgins and I in this ep of ‘TFT’). [...]

They should cut it by 15 min – release as a special edition! :)

Just read that Speed Racer really flopped.

Makes me sad, the film deserved better.

Ahh Cloverfield…didn’t see it. I know that Jeff Love had a look so will see what his opinion his.

As I mentioned to Jett on the twitter (http://twitter.com/hiddenloop/statuses/822844644) – I have to back him up on this one, when you buy into it, it draws you in and was indeed a fun thrilled fueled ride of adrenaline.

I may be biased as a fan of the original Matrix and in general all things sci-fi -ish.

I’d like to know what TheFilmTalk made of Cloverfield ? – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1060277/ released earlier this year. Again, another one I totally got drawn into in, and throughly enjoyed.

And yes, i’m still a fan of the lost (all these years later) – why, Jeth Roe my ‘torrenting friend’ is getting the latest finale down right now…

Yeah – with LTA on semi-hiatus, (without the Wayne it’s not worth the pain), TFT is offering a similar release valve for me!

Only half way through this week’s episode – so you’ve just got your cup of coffee and ready to talk about the film (I think). It’s beginning to sound like an episode of LTA! (That’s a good thing.)

One correction – the Apple Store in Belfast’s shiny new Victoria Square retail cathedral isn’t open yet. It’s currently recruiting wizard staff and should open it’s glass doors in September.

I like ‘Friction of Options’…think I saw them when they opened for the White Stripes back in 2004.

Morning boys… it’s me, the listener here. Enjoyed the show, glad there was some friction of options. Recommend you check out Mark Kermode’s podcast review of Speed Racer (BBC5Live a week or two ago) … he used the words “like putting your head in a candy floss maker” which seem apposite…
