Weekend 2
Spent the weekend in Witney catching up with a few friends. Also watched two films: – Revolutionary Road. Pretty good, some good messages and some really good scenes. Despite how good Winslet’s acting – it still really annoys me when … Continue reading
Into the Wild
If you haven’t seen Into the Wild, then I recommend that you rectify that as soon as possible. I’d like to hear your thoughts and what effect it has on you.
Elfstones Film
One of my favourite books ever – Elfstones of Shannara, is currently in production as a film. I hope it gets the same TLC as Lord of the Rings. IMDB. It’s a shame Terry Brooks quite literally lost the plot, … Continue reading
Tintin
Looks like Spielberg is set to produce the first of the Tintin films. I’m also sure I read somewhere that Andy Serkis will be playing Captain Haddock, I wonder who will be playing Tintin? I need to recover my complete … Continue reading
The Dark Knight
Wow, wow, wow and wow! What a great film, dark and sinister. And a reasonable story to go with it. However – Heath Ledger just blew everybody out of the water with his acting; I wouldn’t actually call it acting … Continue reading
Untraceable
Just watched this at the Hoyt’s Cinema in Dunedin (Gaelic for Edinburgh… who knew? There’s also a statue of Robbie Burns here). It’s just about watchable. Kind of a mixture of The Net and the Saw. The preview of Hell … Continue reading
Juno and Once
I watched Juno on the flight from Fiji to Auckland. It’s a great film, very Garden State-esque – leaving you with a smile on your face and lots of laughs. The main actress is superb, bit like Natalie Portman in … Continue reading
Indy
The new Indiana Jones film is looking good, can’t wait for it to come out. Trailer here. As long as it’s better than the Temple of Doom, I’ll be happy; if it’s better than Raiders, then I might just pass-out.
Very Tired
I’m now very tired after a fun few days. Snow in Leeds, drinking too much red wine last night and suffering on public transport today – were some highs and lows. Also went to the cinema to watch El Orfanato … Continue reading
Nice and Nasty
My weekend was really good (apart from England being rubbish at rugby). Dropped into Witney to meet up with a friend, for a half day of drinking on Saturday. Sunday was very enjoyable – went into Oxford and watched one … Continue reading
