Tim Minchin - Ready For This? (2009)
This is more Tim Minchin, although coming across less original, smart, or funny as he was in 'So Live', apart from the fantastic beat poem 'Storm', which is one of my all–time favourites.
IT Crowd, The (TV Series) (2006)
Another underrated TV series featuring three main characters who work in IT and mostly appear to have no idea of what they are doing or what is going on in the company they work for. You'll know immediately whether you'll take to this comedy.
Black Books (TV Series) (2002)
Dylan Moran is perfect as a bookstore owner who hates customers and, well, most people. His odd sense of humour is nicely complemented by Bailey's vacant optimism and Greig's honesty.
Danny Bhoy: Live at the Sydney Opera House (2007)
One of the funniest standup comedy DVDs I have seen; Danny Bhoy is really on top form.
Tim Minchin - So Live (2007)
Quirky and clever, this is the first of Tim Minchin's tours and well worth watching for fans of musical comedy.
Tim Minchin - Rock 'N' Roll Nerd (2008)
Tim Minchin is as much of an interesting character off–stage as on, as documented here in his rise to fame. Some personal and professional setbacks, and an interesting insight to the comedy industry, this is a documentary well worth watching.
Van Helsing (2004)
A very disappointing vampire/fantasy outing that attempts to draw together several different universes and ultimately fails to deliver a convincing world of its own. For all its promise, the film only gets worse the longer you sit through it.
Blade - Trinity (2004)
Trinity is a disappointing outing that fails to improve on the Blade formula in any way. Reynolds provides unrelenting one–liners for attempted comic relief and Biel unabashedly promotes the iPod. At least Snipes is his usual ass–kicking self.
Blade 2 (2002)
Not quite as gritty as the original, but bringing more to the table in terms of ideas and action, Blade is back to take out vampires, as well as a new kind of super–prey.
Vampire Hunter D - Bloodlust (2001)
D is back with a cool combination of Japanese and Western elements, as well as a blend of futuristic sci–fi weapons and old–fashioned ass–kicking. A very stylish vampire anime.
