Review: GHOST RIDER

Tuesday, March 6th, 2007

Like most people, I like to exercise my brain and let my thoughts run away with me. I often wonder what I a full blown bout of involuntary anal leakage would look like metaphorically represented by film, alas, I wonder no more, as Ghost Rider is pretty much as accurate a representation of the pain, [...]

Jennifer Lopez: Yep, still sucks

Monday, February 5th, 2007

Is it just me or is Jennifer Lopez the most hated figure in popular culture. Sure there are people who are dumber, say Paris Hilton and sure there are people who are more irritating, for example Lindsay Lohan but does any quite have the package that J-Lo has, rounded off beautifully with a little extra [...]

Babel vs. The Fountain

Sunday, January 28th, 2007

This article is semi-serious and not really funny, I just had to vent.
Well, I have had over the past two days the fortune of seeing these two movies, which I cannot begin to contrast so greatly. One of them is the visionary movie that finally sees Inarritu come of age and get the Oscar nominations [...]

How to beat Barcelona // Some awesome music

Tuesday, November 7th, 2006

I apologise for another football post, but I actually wrote this a while back (when it was still relevant) and don’t want to have done this and not put it up.

1. Hope that the referee has 20/20 vision
There were at least two occasions when Rafael Marquez should have been banished to the stands in shame. [...]

Halloweenesque… Scary Music Videos

Friday, November 3rd, 2006

Now I’m not even for a minute going to act like I am any kind of authority on anything regarding music video trivia, I very rarely flip over to MTV and when it do what happens to be on is more often than not either:
a) a music video of some dime-a-dozen rapper singing about whores [...]

If I Were To Put Money On The UEFA Champions League..

Friday, October 13th, 2006

I’m gonna be the first to put this out there. I back Valencia to win it. I know there’s a high probability it won’t happen but I am equally confident there there is every chance it will. I am also gonna put this out there. Raul Albiol? Best defender in the world in 7-8 years, [...]

Review: THE DEPARTED

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

Flat out I’m gonna say this. It’s without a doubt the best movie I’ve seen in years, and probably one of the best I’ve seen in my life. I haven’t gushed in a review for a LONG time, but this one fucking deserves it. The only thing that I have bad to say about this [...]

Early Observations on the English Premier League

Wednesday, September 20th, 2006

Right off the bat I’m going to (hopefully) infuriate and alienate a sizable portion of readers: Liverpool are shit. This article could just as easily be titled ‘Why Liverpool will never win the Premier League Title for at least three to four years’. Champions League maybe because that’s hit and miss, but not the league, [...]

Mission Impossible 3

Sunday, September 3rd, 2006

I actually really like this movie. I’ll be honest, I actually even like the John Woo directed, do-there-really-need-to-be-doves-at-that-exact-moment second Mission Impossible movie. This one however, I felt was better on all accounts.
For starters there was finally not one but 2 knock-out female characters (Michelle Monaghan, of one of my all-time favourites; Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, [...]

Superman Returns

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

I apologise that I’ve been kind of AWOL for about 3 months, most people know that I was in Australia with my girlfriend, and following that, well I was in KL for about 5 days but I barely did anything as I grappled with jet-lag and bought as many DVDs as possible. I’ve been home [...]
