With
Attack The Block currently attacking the box office here in the UK, and director Joe Cornish rubbing shoulders with Hollywood royalty, it seems a US release of our new favourite

Aside from the ridiculously high placing of the Vicar of Dibley in the BBC's recent backslapping Britain's Best Sitcoms event, perhaps the most bogus omission from the coveted list was Spaced.
