    I saw 'March of the Penguins' this weekend, it was really good.

    Reading wise, my favourites recently have been: Irvine Welsh 'The Acid House', which a lot of the munters would probably enjoy. Currently reading Lynne Truss 'Eats Shoots and Leaves', which is a brilliant read (if you are interested in grammar).

    An old but good one: 'The Catcher in the Rye' by JD Salinger. This is definately worth reading.

    Poetry wise, there's a good anthology called 'Being Alive'

    The next book I intend to read: 'Lolita' by Vladamir Nabakov.

    :)
