... and better yet in 12 Monkeys. I don't think he is that good of a lead actor. But, he  has some badass movies.

If you like 12 Monkeys you have to watch La Jetée. It clears up a lot of missing stuff. After watching La Jetée it immediately made 12 Monkeys jump up to 1 of my all time favorite movies. It's a 30 minute French short. Do NOT watch it dubbed in English. Watch it in French with English subtitles. You won't regret it.

I'm making a thread:

Interesting... I thought 12 monkeys was pretty good, it had a lot of B-movie qualities to it through which is what turned me off the most, script wise and acting wise it was a very solid film though. I'll have to check out that one you mentioned.

And for the record I love British film and TV. One of my favorite series was SPACED, I had to import the DVD set from amazon.co.uk because they never released it over here, I've also got the Office (the original European version) and the complete box set of Monty Python's Flying Circus. I also like the Ali G show and classics like Fawlty Towers but I don't own either of those... yet  

If you're curious about what else I have in my collection I have all of my DVD cataloged online here: http://www.web-nine..../dvds/index.php

Spaced is AMAZING, which brings me to another quality flick, shaun of the dead.

some others to note are

"chewin' the fat"

"still game" (chewin' the fat spin off)

"harry enfield and chums", "the harry enfields television programme" and "the fast show"

"men behaving badly"

"rab c nesbit"

theres far too many for me to start wth but theres some of the classics, seen any of them?

I've seen Shaun of the Dead it is pretty good.

Twisted, based on your tastes I think you will like Yellowbeard. It has a lot of Monty Python guys and some Americans too. Hillarious.

I have Flying Circus also, it is quality.
