- BrokeBack Mountain

Having no success in obtaining any friends to come over and watch strokeback brokeback mountain with me yesterday at home. I took the plunge last night. Dont know what the fuss was about really ... And its not really even a hardcore poof film.. Its a fairly solid movie all in all and i can understand why heath ledger was left out of any award merits , basically its because IMO his performance was pretty terrible all round , with his dodgy country annoying mumble cowboy accent which at the best parts is almost understandable to his solo efforts which would rival Keanu Reeves in pointbreak. Its a sad ending and all the rest, which is pretty tragic .. but all in all id give it 8.5/10.

- Do What You love, Settle For Nothing Less.

I came across this article! - Warning Long Read! (see full story for quotes) this morning about doing what you love and not settling until you find it. This article ran deep with me, as i was.... i guess... lucky enough to find a niche that i loved and worked on ... hold that .. back track it .... continue on here --> Still working on it. I've spent Many years being pennyless, Many Years being a hobo , Many years being a leech, actually hang on... not much of that has changed .. but I new that somewhere down the line or around that corner surely there must be a break, there had to be something ...

- So Much Tv, So Little Time

So im watching the contender .. The show with Sylvester stallone and Sugar Ray, With the top 16 middle weight boxers in the world fighting for the chance of 1 million dollars and a key final fight at Ceasers Palace.I watched the first 4 episodes last night and I got to say wat an exciting show. Its basically reality tv meets world class boxing. I wont give away to much … But when this airs in oz and you have the time defiantly its worth taking a look at. Some of the first round contender fights have been outstanding... Its sure making for a great finale ..

Ive got loads more tv and movies to watch to catch up on and tell y'all about, but in the meantime im flat to the boards with work up to my ears man so for today thats it from me.....

So much tv, so very little time.

Ps, Franz ferdinand and the gorrilaz new albums are great!

Pps, Did you know the spanish mix coca cola with redwine and its called Calimoxo... Spanish folk like it.. i wonder if it taste any good?

Pps, and Germans mix coca cola with beer .. thats just dumb!

Ppps, The last fortnight ive been disabled by a cracked molar toof in my head and half of it i managed to rip out at the time of the cracking.. however the other half wouldnt budge .... cot dam it .. alas At long last at 5 oclock yesterday afternoon i managed to rip/pull/twist/mangle/bash/lassoo the rest of it out ..... nurofen plus riddled ofcourse ... blood every frikken wear ... they say you can drink a litre of blood before you get sick ... i wasnt far from that ... am i getting to gross? k ... but .... cot dam it hurt . but im glad its out ... dentist next week ...perhaps i should have went last week.. wish me luck :S :|

Pppps,I managed to take pics of it all but i guess you dont wanna see em , plus they still making me cringe a little ..And the pics made my two house mates cringe and scream and dance just by looking at the photos for a glimpse .... ohh i dont know .... k shutting up now ..

- Broken Flowers

I saw Broken Flowers last night - This new Bill Murray movie feels a little bit like an old Bill Murray movie… And that’s a good thing.

If you saw Lost in Translation (and you should have), then you have a sense of the genre that Broken Flowers fits into….. Namely, a somewhat funny, but more often poignant…., Bill Murray film. In some ways, Bill Murray is just as lost in this new film, but on much more familiar ground for his character. In this respect, it also reminds me a bit of Punch Drunk Love ,.. another quirky film with a lost character trying to find something to hold on to.

To cut this sad attempt of a review short .... Murray receives a letter saying he has a son to a long lost lover ... his make shift Sherlock detective neighbour insists he makes a list of all his women from back then and go meet them and try and find out who the mother and son is.....

If your into those kinda minimal quirky films, be sure to check it out, I really liked this movie however... I think ill need to watch it at least 3 or 4 times to get it , just like Lost in Translation was for me. !
