Comedy,Film 21 February 2009 | 0 Comments

Genius. Of all the Bale stuff out there, this is the best I’ve seen (heard?) so far.

2008

Film,General,Movies,Music,Net joy,Politics,TV 30 December 2008 | 2 Comments

And so, with barely a day to go, I suppose I had better try and get down my round up of the year, something that has been buzzing in and around my head for the last few weeks.  In the time since I started thinking about it, my feed reader (and probably yours too) have [...]

Nano Count = 50,015

Film,General,Movies,Music,Net joy,Politics,TV 30 November 2008 | 0 Comments

Well I did it, 50,000 words in 30 days, and now have the shiny evidence of my ability to write a ton of drivel in a short space of time.  That may sound harsh, but it probably is drivel at the moment (I don’t know either way, I haven’t looked back on it at all) [...]

Unended World

Film,General,Politics 10 September 2008 | 0 Comments

It is, as I am sure you will be aware, Big Bang day today, as Cern’s super smashing Large Hadron Collider experiment gets underway.  And no, the world hasn’t ended, as you can plainly see as you look out the window.  If anything, the world is actively continuing along its merry way. Go on, look! [...]

Not entirely sold

Comedy,Film 19 August 2008 | 0 Comments

News today that there may in the ether be a forthcoming Bill Hicks biopic movie delight me in the same way as mint choc chip ice cream, but the rumours that erstwhile Aussie nutbar Russell Crowe is sketched in as the lead worry me.  Sure, he looks the part, as Empire rightly point out, and he [...]

I like mixing things together.

I like mixing things together.

Current Pages Written: 11 (Still on target) As well as continuing as I mean to go on, tonight I’ve also been working at finally finishing the compilation I’ve been promising Jonic for so long it’s no longer funny. Suffice to say though, at three cd’s in length, it’s going to be the best thing ever. [...]

Goddamn Poxy Day

Goddamn Poxy Day

I’d like to thank the kind marketing firms that cook up such interminable delights as Valentine’s Day for reminding me of the fact that I am single. I really needed that. Without such a reminder I may have actually enjoyed my day off. Wouldn’t want that, would we? A small question for anyone reading this: [...]

It's Politics Yo

Film,Politics,TV 24 January 2007 | 4 Comments

I think it’s very encouraging that the American media seem to have lifted the veil of partisanship that’s cloaked them throughout the Bush presidency. One example would be this excellent interview with Dick Cheney from CNN, in which Dick Cheney is basically made to bend over and apologise for being a naughty boy in Iraq. [...]

How not to do it.

Film,General 11 January 2007 | 0 Comments

If Bob Shaye, the man who runs New Line, the company who made, let’s not forget, billions of dolllars out of Peter Jackson and the LOTR films were ever to write a book, I’m sure he will have to call it “How to shoot yourself royally in the foot, destroy your company’s reputation and murder [...]

A tremendous waste of a week.

Film,General,Net hate 19 November 2006 | 0 Comments

Well, I took a week off work so that I could really knuckle down, sort out my CV, get an online portfolio sorted, get some blogging done, all sorts of internet based life sorting really.  But on the first day Talk Talk decided to put a fault on my line and take money out of [...]
