SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Friday, April 6th, 2007
After working hard for the week leading up to the 4 day long weekend, I FINALLY went to see Frank Miller’s 300 last night.
After 7-8 months of anticipation I can honestly say it’s a spectacular film. Even though the story is as thin as a Kleenix, the ferocity of the battles, the super awesome battle troop designs and the glorified blood make it an instant classic epic in my books.
It’s one beautiful film. My jaw dropped many a time when the action slowed down, drapped with gorgeous colour.
Sadly though, it doesn’t make my top 5 films list. (If you’re wondering, the list consists of Lock Stock Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch and Toy Story…)

Frank Miller’s 300
Friday, March 9th, 2007Been waiting a long time for this Frank Miller movie adaption. It’s gonna be one fucken beautiful film, no matter how over the top or how shite the story is.
Jam Sessions on DS gives me hope
Friday, March 9th, 2007For the past few years I’ve dreamed of being able to bring out an accoustic guitar and rock it like John Mayer. But through countless attempts I suck balls and can only play the tune for N.E.R.D’s “She wants to move” and something that I call “autumn morning coffee music” which is really just two variations of the D-chord.
But alas! Ubisoft are bringing out a title called Jam Sessions that lets you strum your DS screen as if it were a real guitar! Add the ability to play different chords and I’m one step closer to becoming a rock star! – with a DS in hand. If I can get a gig through this I’ll let you know. ;)

Kool Kung Fu
Tuesday, February 20th, 2007Like Halley, I get excited in the pants when passionate kids from Cabramatta make something awesome. Watch this kung fu video, it’s probably the best student/home-made kung fu video ever. I gotta say though, the music sux balls.
