Top 3 Date Movies for Valentines Day.
Valentines Day means one thing to me; it’s officially 24 hours till my birthday. This year however it’s also 24 hours till my two friends Kyle and Ryan appear on Bargain Hunt, so set your Sky+ for Wednesday’s episode, unless you don’t like Bargain Hunt, in which case please close this tab in your browser now. (edit: the episode got moved to Monday. Dang!)
February 14th is...

Super Bowl
Do you make a habit of watching the Super Bowl each year? I do. Every year I have a £1 bet on who will be the victor. It was supposed to be ‘loser picks next year’, but quite frankly I can never remember if I won the previous year or not. Let’s just say I did. Wow, what a win!
I’m not a big NFL guy. I think everyone likes to support a team in a sport, but I just...

Hmmm...
This week I finally finished watching the first series of The Borgias.
Jeremy Irons has such incredible delivery. I think he is the reason why Die Hard 3 is my favourite of the trilogy (I refuse to count 4.0 as a Die Hard film, I’m sorry) I wish I spoke like him instead of this mangled, Northern glum I was blessed with.
I also thought the three Borgia children were outstanding, Cesare and...

I think I’d be more interested in watching Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close if the ‘game’ that Tom Hanks left his son was actually Jumanji.
“Yo, I wasn’t really in 9/11, I was just waiting for you to roll a 5 or 8!”

Burn my eyebrows off
This could easily be achieved, and is probably the most do-able one on this list. I think I’d look fetching.
Talk to someone about cars
“This car goes well fast and has a 789089 horsepower! It’s got front and rear suspension! 2.4 diesel engine! Wheels! It goes well fast!”
“Why does any of that matter, when the speed limit is 70mph?”

How I Would Write The Top Cat Movie
So it’s been announced that August 2012 will see the release of ‘Top Cat: The Movie in 3D’, the new movie adaptation of the popular cartoon series. TC is back, along with his street-cat gang. From what I can make out, the film will actually be an English dub of the Latin-American Top Cat movie that was released late last year. Looks like the Top Cat of old with some new...

2 Broke Girls co-creator defends show's racial... →
I’m so glad that the reporters at the TCA press tour addressed things that needed to be addressed in regards to 2 Broke Girls, namely the shallow, racist stereotypes that make up the supporting cast.
While the article pretty much sums up what I like about the show (enjoyable lead roles that have been developed over the series) and what I hate (pretty much the rest of it), what does annoy me...

A Nightmare Future
The year is 2039. You’ve been with your partner for 12 years now. You never quite made it down the aisle, but who cares, you don’t live by society’s conventions, you’re in the mother fucking future!
Together you’ve produced two wholesome children. Ken, 8, and his adopted sister Chun-Li, 3. You really love Street Fighter. Everyone does.
In the future, everything is...

New Years TV Resolutions
Thank Zeus that Christmas is over, because the month of December was like a black hole for my television schedule.
For one, I can’t for the life of me build up the courage to watch the Doctor Who Christmas Special. Since the show came back in 2005 I’ve never missed an episode or a special, but the end of last season really, really put me off the show.
I think my recent problem with...

New Year's Eve, Same Old BS (NSFW)
New Year’s Eve is complete and utter bullshit, and here is why I choose not to celebrate it.
It’s not to say y’all shouldn’t have a good time. I don’t celebrate Hanukkah, Eid Al-Fitr or Afghan Independence Day, but you won’t find me telling you you’re stupid for celebrating them. I celebrate Christmas, we just do. I celebrate Thanksgiving, and I’m...

Dear Adam
Today is the 21st of December 2011, which means, according to the Mayan Calendar, you’ve got around about 365 days left on planet Earth.
Of course, it’s not as cut and dry as that. The Mayan’s calendar just sort of ends there, it doesn’t finish with “No need for any more dates as this is the end of the existence, bye! - Steve’. The other day you...

WWYDIYSWAHCAAOTBFCHH?
…And the only way to feed him is to sleep with a man for a little bit of money?
Every time I’ve sat down to write something today, this song has appeared in my mind’s eye. So, in order to get it out of my system, here it is.
So, what would you do? I’m on the ‘hold up!’ side.

My Unconventional Christmas Films List
Being home for Christmas means a great many things to a great many people. Family, food a plenty, presents, and having to listen to some of the worst music imaginable (I’m looking at you, Fairytale of New York. Shane MacGowan has more teeth than talent).
For me, Christmas means MOVIEZ. In fact, Easter means movies…Diwali means movies…pretty much any occasion is a good time to...

What Is The Scariest Thing That Could Happen?
What could really be classed as the scariest thing possible? I think it ranges from person to person, depending on events and situations they’ve had to deal with while growing up. I think a lot of these ‘scary’ situations could have something to do with the media that people consume, maybe even their faith could play a large part in it. People often ask me this question*, and I...

The Only Christmas Album You'll Need →
Nothing says ‘Christmas’ like ‘I’m Giving Santa a Pikachu This Year’ off the Pokemon Christmas Bash album.
(note: Pikachu is mis-spelled ‘PICKACHU’ on Spotify, as if having a 5-listens limit wasn’t bad enough!)

Bullet Points
I’ve been neglecting my recapping of Sailor Moon episodes 1-40. I’ll start again this week: http://serieswatching.tumblr.com
I’m in love with bullet points. They would have been great in my film exam in college.
City of God is a place I don’t want to visit
Lil Ze is mental
The cycle never ends for the Brazilian youth
Mise-en-scene blah blah blah
But they’d make...

The Fifth Element
I love The Fifth Element. The story, the characters, but the production design is just on another level.
It is another reason why I just never liked Avatar. You know, they went to a new planet and all that, which would take some amazing technology, but it all looks too…real? I way prefer my space sci-fi to have that ‘lived in’ look in some cases (Cowboy Bebop, Firefly) but I...

Anonymous asked: What about CO-OP? They give back to the community and around the world and is a British company. ASDA may not give back, but they're not English, it's an American company. Don't diss Britain when they're as bad as us.

Target: Inside the Bullseye →
I’ve been really into these ‘CNBC Originals’ documentaries ever since I watched their Coca Cola one last month. I think it’s great to have knowledge about the history of these massive corporations that run the world. Yeah, they’re totally biased in the way that it all comes from the company’s mouth, but I find the whole thing really interesting, well formatted...

Freaky...
In the past I’ve wrote about how I love to watch television shows about spooky ghost stories. I’ve told you how I get wrapped up in them, how even movies like Paranormal Activity or Insidious can suck me in. I get so involved in it all and can totally suspend my disbelief, but when the program finishes, a little part of it stays with me. This usually means that when I finally go...
