After much waiting ASD finally put in an appearance here in Swindon. One
of the multi-screens had a single showing on their smallest screen at
17:30 tonight. They attempted to freak out the audience by showing the
first five minutes of "Click" before realising their mistake and
switching reels.

About 12 people turned up.

I thought it was excellent. The animation was hallucinatory - everything
shifting and changing. Very much a movie for "grow-ups" - the themes
explored and dialog made few concessions to the short attention span
generation.

Oh, and Winona's breasts look great even when animated Wink

Sigh....is anyone in the movie business ever going to explain
why they didn't even *try* to market that cast?

They seem to decide before hand that a film's a loser and then proceed to prove
it by not marketing it. Compare this to that piece of offal about the space
station, which genuinely sucked a wet one.
