Like Withnail & I, it’s been suggested to me a million times and I’ve turned it down continuously in favour of something else, and now I’ve finally decided to watch Unleashed, also known by the rather silly-if-contextually-appropriate Danny The Dog in some regions. I was very, very impressed.

Lazy daaaays. Sometimes they’re violently depressing, sometimes they’re crazy awesome. Sometimes they’re just right. Today was of the third flavour! Mind you it’s not quite a lazy day since I was at work, but the fact I’ve done bog-all since getting home definitely gives it the vibe of one.

Survival is today’s Cadillacs And Dinosaurs episode. We’re getting ever so close to the conclusion!
I watched Planet Terror last night. I was actually quite happy to just sit down and watch Theodore Rex, but padre suggested this one and I could hardly accept anything else once the decision was made. It’s Planet freakin’ Terror!

Mind Over Matter is up on Random Action Hour.
Thursday night is movie night, and I decided to watch Elektra. I didn’t really put much thought into the decision.

I went to see Hot Tub Time Machine last night. My dad offered to see the Nightmare on Elm Street remake, but quite frankly, that doesn’t interest me. He’s intrigued mostly because he wants to see at least one instalment on a cinema screen, but if I were given the choice I’d rather watch the original film or Part 3. Given the fact modern cinemas do not perform wish fulfilment, I opted for Hot Tub instead, which was the only one that caught my fancy. The trailer was stupidly enticing!

Random Action Hour is updated with another Cadillacs & Dinosaurs episode, Wildfire. It’s not a bad watch, but recapping it is a bit of a slog because the plot is literally just “they move – there’s an obstacle – Hammer is an idiot – repeat” for about twenty minutes.
On Thursday night I decided to watch the first Iron Man again with someone who’d never seen it before. Reanalysis time!

I saw Iron Man 2. There’s been a hell of a lot of hype and, naturally, every fanboy worth his rainbow suspenders is proclaiming how great it’s going to be. I went to a showing with several friends, had quite a merry laugh amidst the fun and excitement, and ended it with a trip to Bar 12, a pleasant little place where we rounded off the evening with lots of nerdy, nerdy debate. It was a very entertaining night.
I’m a little bit ehhh about the movie, though.

Who is David Cameron?
Seriously. I mean, I know the name and I’m aware he’s a politician, but it seems he’s mentioned on every single news headline at the minute. Where’d the dude come from? I’ve kind of always known the name, but he seems to be grabbing every single Yahoo! News headline since the start of this year, and until March I was rather confused because they only referred to him just as Cameron, which naturally led me to think, “man, the guy who directed Titanic has been busy lately.”

I went with a bunch of chums to see Kick-Ass, and we left with wide grins upon our faces. I assume the “I saw Kick-Ass, it was kick ass!” joke has been done to death by now, huh?

I watched the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers movie. About a decade ago my dad commented that he enjoyed it more than the Super Mario Bros. movie, and while I wouldn’t say I was livid with rage (my brother probably was!), I was quite shocked. I mean, how could a kiddy thing like Power Rangers top the misunderstood epic that was Super Mario Bros.? That film was a friggin’ monolith to me, nothing could top it. Covering it for Random Action Hour a few months ago did give me a serious wake up call about how screwy it is.
