tv and entertainment
I might want to believe but it looks corny
Its funny how things work out. The other day i posted about the fact that the new X-Files movie was coming out at the cinemas this week and while i hadn’t watched an episode in the longest time, i used to be a fan. Well the next day i was walking through JB Hi Fi [...]
I want to Believe
I just saw a preview on tv for the new X-Files movie. When it first came out I was a huge fan, hooked on every episode and buying each new set of videos as they came out. I know I certainly wasn’t the only one as the whole world was X-Files crazy but in the [...]
On ya Bike
Well i am still not doing a great job of the whole updating my blog regularly. It seems now in addition to being distracted by World War II raging (i am up to 1943 now) I have also become distracted by the Tour de France which is on late at night here.Yes the cycling race.
Now [...]
Californication Redux
Its a happy happy day. Yesterday fresh on the shelves i managed to pick up the dvd for the first series of Californication and i must say the whole experience was a little different. Its not every day when buying a dvd that you have to make the decision to buy it with or without [...]
Down and Out
Well i am up to episode 17 of Gossip Girl and fast sliding in the last of my coolest stakes, not that i had much of that at my peak now that i think about it.
I must admit that I tend to get too involved in the tv shows i watch. Emotionally invested perhaps [...]
Your Fracking Kidding Me
So i got the chance to watch the mid season finale of Battlestar Galactica tonight. I’ll try not to drop too many spoilers into this post but it was a jam packed episode with a rather suprising conclusion. I was disappointed as the pace could have been a little slower to savour some of the [...]
In risk of my left wing dropping off
You might say that at times i can border on the left side of politics. Not too far left but just a little bit anyway. And at times i can be a bit of a class warrior wanting to tear down the ivory towers of those privledged few that spend their time playing petty little [...]
New Toy
My DVD player has been more than a little sick lately. Jumping, refusing to start, unable to notice a disc has been put in. That sort of thing. Its had a lot of use so i think i have mainly just used it to death with watching dvds and recording tv shows.
So to go [...]
Last of my street cred
Its looking like any hope of my being on anyones cool list or even the hottest list. So i guess the latest indiscretiton is just going to see my street cred just drop off the scale when i reveal that i have rented series one of Veronica Mars to watch on my usual lonely saturday [...]
Mad Men
I just watched the first episode of Mad Men. Its an interesting show that is set in 1960 and revolves around a New York Advertising Agency. Its filled with competitive men and women willing to step over the bodies of their work collegues in order to get the sale and get ahead in the business. [...]
