  1. Heh, also, Keanu Reeves on Graham Norton's show the other night was talking that he's actually read a script for Bill & Ted 3. No word on whether it would go beyond that, or how much was just joking around, but he did actually give a general run through on the premise as a 50 year old Bill & Ted struggle with rebellious kids and failing marriages, then find out if they don't write a song this time it'll potentially scar the future of the entire galaxy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdBg0gExEcA
  2. Heh, Comment someone made after seeing it
  3. Sometimes you just want your action hero's challenges to be "do I shoot him with my left hand or my right hand?" "Do I jump over the table and stab him or do I slide under it and stab him in the groin?"
  4. There is something so wonderfully well animated to Leland's expression at the end of Alpha Protocol in those seconds before the bomb disguised as a PDA goes off.
  5. Heh. a post from Arnold Schwarzenegger's FB the other month..
  6. Heh, for the nostalgia... Vampire Bloodlines was enough to make your blood boil
  7. 30 Years on and Robocop is still misunderstood

  9. Underworld Blood Wars. Heh. Well it was good to see Kate Beckinsale back in that costume, and it had that moody, broody pseudo-action riff to the film in general. Plenty of stylish moments, with expansion of the background elements in some ways (but still keeping them kind of shallow). Interesting in that they reference elements from the previous film, but at the same time completely skip over the "the rest of humanity is aware of lycans and vampires and hunted us down", and instead its a bit of a return to the various coven houses full of overblown gothicly exuberant vampires. I don't think they actually had as many action sequences as they've done in previous films...but they did add a touch more mysticism just to shift things up apparently. Then they ended it with a hook for a potential next film. Charles Dance as ever sinks himself into the role, although there's never enough of him on screen, and Lara Pulver firmly takes to the role of the manipulative vamp (people might recognise her more as Irene Adler in Sherlock). Theo James does the manly leader type who really follows Selene around and is probably meant to be more of the eye-candy for the other half of the audience. Tobias Menzies as the main antagonist doesn't have too much to work with, but does what he can.

  11. Actually, no. It's a run of the mill Tabloid newspaper. Not as high brow as The Guardian, not quite as low-brow as The Sun. But it does tend to have that off-centre right bias.
  12. Actually, this has me snerking some.. Wikipedia bans the Daily Mail as unreliable source
