    No, he's our Venus, he's our fire at our desire.

    Mark Venus joins CCFC Board of Directors

    Yep. Great news! Really hope it does give him power and is not just a token gesture. Really hoping he can fight the team's corner in regard to on field issues and put across what is needed to push the club forwards.

    He probably just did and he's not on the board at all. :)

    If you look at Gravity, the script is .... well pretty much there is no script, but it is absolutely dazzling to look at and really gripping too. I think the general public on the whole just want to be entertained or thought provoked. The critics look at the whole filmatic process to boot. I...

    Well, yeah, but that is what critics look for. Not only are they looking at the script and the performances, but also the cinematography and set design and especially the direction. This is why the Revenant got so many awards.

    I think this needs further investigation! :) Batman v Superman for instance. Got a lot of panning by many, many critics, yet a lot of the viewing public really liked it. I am sure some get paid, but it just doesn't seem to stack up that the majority do. There are many critics I admire and...

    Doesn't quite sound right to me. Not doubting you necessarily, but surely all film companies would go that extra mile to ensure critics are paid enough? Could be the sinking or swimming of the movie and mean millions in profits or losses couldn't it?

    Well yeah, I kind of knew that, but it can't be all of them surely. How come lots of films get completely panned by critics if they are paid to write good reviews of bad films? :)

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Tried to keep clear of this thread, but not sure I can agree with this. Did people vote for Tony Blair or did they vote for the Labour party? I think an awful people voted for a Labour party LED by Tony Blair. Did people vote for the Tories, or Margaret Thatcher? Again, I would say a lot of...

    Getting to Austria

    Tis indeed. That would be just like trying to get from the Radford Road to the Butts in a few years time.

    'We all want Coventry City to continue playing at Ricoh'

    It's not, but he says a lot and nothing ever seemingly comes from it. (Could echo that for Sisu too in general of course, apart from the court cases and Northampton). I don't blame him at all. Think he is just trying to spin things and put a positive slant as best as he possibly can.

    Which Movie?

    Interesting. There was a group of 12 of us all went and half hated it and the other half found it very, very scary. Split right down the middle.

    Sporting Films

    The one I don't get is Escape to Victory. It got average reviews, yet everyone seems to love it. For me it was nonsensical beyond belief. Don't think I have ever seen so many plot holes and credibility stretched so far. I have watched it a few times now over the years and do so want to like...

    http://www.daddies.com/ The Cherry Poppin Daddies would have been popular though.

    I'm sure we've all become so engrossed in a racy book that we have become stuck on one page haven't we?

    'We all want Coventry City to continue playing at Ricoh'

    I think whoever takes on that position, the one Chris Anderson holds, has been handed a poisoned chalice and it is seemingly just damage limitation.
