I'm on episode six of I, Claudius. Superb british drama. Derek Jacobi is fantastic as Clau-Clau-Claudius.Sian Phillips is the personification of evil as Livia. Highly recommended.
Will be watching Pirates Of The Carribean this weekend.
Saw Return Of The King yesterday and was blown away.
After I, Claudius, I will be checking out the extras on the Alien Quadrilogy box set.

Since I will be with my family, we will most likely watch more family-oriented films because my niece and nephew will be around: "Freaky Friday".
