    Alice in wounderland

     

    utter shite.

     

    1/10

     

    the hurt locker

     

    really glad i got to see it on the big screen (special screening at a local cinema). a truly great film, increadably tense. beautifuly shot and told a story in a belivable manner.

     

    what i particularly liked

    the bit back home felt so strange, abroupt and awkward. really did make me consider how difficult it would be to try and readjust to normal life

     

     

    9/10

    anouther insight into inappropriate girls life "ive given birth twice, it really isnt that bad. i didnt even tear!"

     

    there was a look passed between some of the group, then a girl laughed and said my face was priceless, much laughter.

     

    i smiled at a girl on the train as i went home, she recoiled in horror.

     

    not a good day to be me.

    so first day at my new job went well. training facility is a bit out of the way but it's not THAT bad.

     

    strange girl who we met for the first time today made everyone feel awkward she was saying about her aranged marrage "we still arnt in love, but the sex is great. we've been married 9 years and still go at it like dogs." i was rather shocked.

    So now someone who can do a hobby well is suddenly elevated to the same status as some of the most profound thinkers of our existence. Warhol would be so proud.

     

    see, i agree with your sentiment (footballers not deserving the accolade of "great people") but if my hobby was science and i perfected cold fusion that would make me great, or if my hobby was writting, and i penned a magnificent book that explores the very nature of what it is to be human, again, id arguably be a great person.

     

    i suppose i can see the argument for sportsmen being great, but thier impact on the world is limited, in 1000 years time, we wont rember them. they make a difference to a few, but globaly speaking, most of them are as insignificant as the rest of us

    forget your over paid nancy boys kicking a ball across a lawn, forget your mathematicians wasting thier lives playign with numbers, forget your writters who say so much and do nothing. theres only one man we need respect.

    He did it just because somebody brought a laptop to work on in class? Bah it's practically a need most of the time.

     

    Stupid teacher, I'd go mad if he did that to mine and demand he pay for another.

     

    i think it was most likly an old laptop and him making a point and trying too be funny.

    i was in the gym yesterday, while on the exercise bike, i could see the guy infront of me working on a cross trainer. MC Hammers "cant touch this" came on the music and some how, it synced up perfectly with that guys efforts. i was trying to to burst out laughing the whole time.

     

    just a bit gutted that I'll not be able to get to the gym next week as im going to be at work 8 hours a day with 3-4 hours worth of travle.

    the mummy returns

     

    weeeeeeeell, it was an event i guess. most of the movie was seemingly made for clips to stick in the trailer, had a very dissjointed feel to it. and hollywood, if your reading this, please stop adding kids into films to "liven it up" nobody likes kids and it makes the female lead less attractive as you know shes given birth and her fanny will never be the same.

     

    the film itself is camp but enjoyable enough, it has a light hearted famly feel to it that you dont see to much thses days.

     

    oh, and i have a slight man crush on brenden fraisure now. he seems like a nice fellow.

     

    also, the scorpion king himself is hilarious. id not like to fight the rock, id not like to fight a scorpion, so why is a half the rock half a scorpion monster so funny?

    6/10 better then it should be.

    Is it wrong to order a hot chocolate when you go into a pub? I didn't feel like having a alcoholic drink when we were there and didn't want something fizzy either so I thought sod it, I'll have a chocolate. And yeah, it came with whipped cream and marshmallows on top but surely there is nothing wrong with that is there?

     

    It's just my mates were giving me stick for it.

     

    it is kinda wierd. its not wrong, but to young lads its obviosuly not usual so its gon na be laughed at.

     

    but the stick is just banter, same in any group, it'l be forgotten soon enough.

    the outher week i was out with friends, we were meeting a mate of ours who is gay (but hasnt come out to every one yet) and my mate turner let out possibly the funniest sentence ever.

     

    "I just don't understand how you can be gay when there are so many fit lasses about" hes a good lad but we dont hang around with him for his intelect.

    assassins creed 2 dlc

     

    really enjoyed AC2, so the chance to get a couple of extra hits in appealed to me. havign played both heres what i thought.

     

    dlc 1: battle. exactly like a normal mission, lots of fun and a good story running though. the sudden ending was kinda a opain though

     

    dlc 2: bonfire. i liked the setting a little more, but the story seemed lacking. the 9 assasinations were varied and fun, with a couple being fairly difficult. the ending was awsome.

     

    all in all 7/10 worth the money i paid, but nothing must have about them, also lack of achivments/trophies was odd.

    Soooo, does anybody know if I need to know the story of Fallout 3 in order to understand Fallout: New Vegas? I didn't get to play Fallout 3 (mainly because I don't want to play the uncut version and importing is too expensive or impossible for me because I don't have a credit card).

     

    they seem unrelated to me, from the information ive read, you should be fine.

    So who recommends getting Play TV? I'm thinking about it and I have to say I'm very tempted by it.

     

    Also think I'm going to buy Flower as it has been reduced to £2.39 :)

     

    flower is the single best dlc game ive ever palyed. it may well have stopped me attempting sucide.

    bioshock 2

     

    i wasnt the biggest fan of the first bioshock, i think it had been to hyped for me. thats not to say i didnt love it, i just didnt feel it was the revolution i was told to expect. what did blow me away was the twist in the story, i already knew a fair bit of it, yet a certain element left me reeling, trying to reject what id been told but finaly understanding it was a peice of pure genious, a moment that cemented gamings place as a medium for story telling.

     

    now, one year after i first went to rapture, im abck. and i love it.

     

    the first thing i will say about the game is the atmosphere is increadable. shadows and sound constantly remind you of the twisted world your in, and the clautrophobic environment becomes like a trap, filled with some of the most disturbing creatures in video games.

     

    you cant help but notice the love thats gone into creating the world, the broken streets are alive with details, the corpses seem to tell a story, the audio logs reveal details about the world around you.

     

    the story is again, one of the games strongest elements. its told through magnificent voice acting, with the majority of cut scenes being done in the half life style, allowing you to focus on what you want.

    ineviatably, the game wouldent have anything as ground breaking as would you kindly, or revealing you were ryan's clone/son, but i cant help but feel there should have been more of a twist, the most shocking moment was the opening cinematic. i chose to be good and mercyful, and was happy with how the story reflected thig, and i'll be interested to see how the evil vengful story resolves.

     

     

    the gameplay is very similar to the first, though being a big daddy makes it slightly more interesting, the slower but more resiliant style dose slightly differ it from the original, but the main difference comes from what was my biggest fear about the game, the gathering sections. in bioshock 1, the protecting the little sister mission was a low point, hearing the game would have alot of this was dissheartening, but it actualy worked otu very well indeed. setting up traps in tactical locations, adding mini turrets, carfully checking all the guns were set to the most appopreate ammo and then finaly starting the sequence was a very tense experience. i spent alot of my time and money aquireing the best equipment for these moments, and i have to say, they were enjoyable.

     

    the big sisters were slightly disserpointing. i expected to be chased around by a single big sister, striking out of the blue and really pushing my skill. the fact they only appear outside of very few scripted moments when you release of harvest all the little sisters in an area took the edge off them, they werent stalking preditors but lured prey. you had time to lay traps, to stratergise. this took away alot of the fear.

     

     

    all in all, its a game that stands up well to its own big daddy, whilst very familiar, it does keep an identity of its own, and even in this extended christmas period, its well worth picking up.

     

    9/10 atmospheric and deep, a must play for anyone looking for a truly mature game.

    No it's just with him in particular, I'm somewhat disenchanted with the prospect of sex, because it kinda feels like "Been there, done that".

     

    if you feel like that, hes probebly not right for you.

     

    emotional conections make sex more then just a physical act, but an expression of deep affection and comfort together.

     

    good lord i sound like a twat.
