Skyline

Sup?
oh cool!
nah but how much fun was it???
lol totally!

Anyway onto the review

For some reason I'm starting to type this 'review' only 20 minutes into the film ... that's a bad sign ... it means the film is not interesting enough to keep me riveted.
The first thing that strikes me about this movie is that if the film makers wanted me to care about any of the main characters they've gone the wrong way about it (again i'm only 20 minutes in so who knows! maybe they'll all turn out to be really lovely wonderfull people) the main character, Jarrod, and his wife travel to LA to visit Jarrods friend Turk ... Oh sorry, Terry. Then we have some scenes establishing that everyone that Terry knows in LA are dicks and Terry is no better ... also Jarrod is kind of a dick and his wife is also a dick. (basically everyone is a dick)
Then aliens happen.
to the films credit the alien ships look pretty cool even if the aliens themselves are ridiculously stupid (they have the technology to suck people into the air but the only way they can find people is to look through windows???)

Im currently learning why writing a review 20 minutes in is stupid ... I dont think those were alien ships ... its now appears that they are organic creatures ...

ANYWHO im going to wait for the film to finish and then write the rest ...

OK! its finished now! and i feel like i can now properly complain. seriously you dont need to see this film, its not worth it. The ending is bad. The story is bad. The characters are bad. the aliens are badass. in fact the aliens are the only good point of the entire film, they seriously look awesome. so yeah all in all NOT WORTH THE WATCH

on a side note "Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you say YES!"
that is all.

Dara O'Briain and friends!

So i went to a comedy gig the night before last (My first time seeing comics live). And I will say now it was amazing! I am majorly into comedy and love watching live comedy (on DVDs) but there is something about seeing it live which just makes the whole experience amazing! I went with four of my friends to the Hammersmith Apollo and everyone who went seemed to enjoy it.
There were about six or seven comics performing and each had around about a five minute set. The highlight of the evening was a comic called Terry Alderton who I had never seen or heard of before. His act was basically him acting completely insane for the whole time ... AND IT WAS AWESOME!!! He perfectly walked the line of hilarious man acting insane and completely mental kind of scary guy which made the act even better.
Dara O'Briain o was, of course, also hilarious and the only person who kind of let the side down was Shapi Khorsandi who was the 'host' of the evening meaning that she would come out after each comedian to introduce the next (after making a few jokes) i admit that some her stuff did genuinely make me laugh but after the first time she came out it felt like she was just trying to play the 'women have it hard' and the 'Iranians have it hard too' cards. Now as i am not Iranian or a woman I don't know how accurate this is but as far as I am aware women and Iranians are not down trodden minorities who suffer at the hands of others meaning that i didn't find her jokes that funny.

On a side note my converse are falling apart ... seriously there isn't much fabric holding them together and i feel like I should probably get some new shoes but at the same time some part of me thinks that the torn up converse look is majorly cool (although as I have spent my entire life being the looser nerd who doesn't have the slightest idea what is fashionable I'm not sure how accurate this idea is) anyways I'm going to love you and leave you with a new sign of which one of my friends wanted me to use.

Jack off!

Rock Band 3

So rock band 3 finally turned up ... a week after it was supposed to ... (I don't blame the postman (It's not his fault (it's the Illuminati's ... THEY RUN EVERYTHING))) and I have finally got round to posting a sort of review ('sort of' because it will mainly be my insane mutterings)

The game is awesome, coming from someone who loved the first two. I love allot of the songs in the set list and especially like the way that it ventures into new styles of music not seen in most rhythm music instrument controller games (RYMUIC's?) anyway I have an entirely different point to make in this post. (I'm not much of a reviewer and I don't really intend to become one)

Is it weird for a guy to play as a girl in games??? I mean I don't in most games, I'm a slender athletic male elf in dragon age and a twisted male Sith lord in Knights of the old Republic (in other words everything I'm not in this so called 'real' world) but when it comes to rock band I always make a female character. Now, i have no idea if it's some kind of weird psychological thing that affects certain guys (or if we just like staring at hot women playing guitar (the more likely option)) but i can't help it! I know a couple of guys who make female characters in everything (specifically one person ... whose name rhymes with pawn) and i don't find it too weird (unless they start acting like their character) but i know that some people think it is incredibly weird. If i had any kind of real following on here I'd ask you all to comment and say whether you do it or think it's odd ... but i don't so instead I'll just sit in my room and ponder this by myself ... alone ... apart from the voices ... who never leave ... EVER ...... (because of the Illuminati)

Green dinosaur tape

I know I said I was probably going to post about rock band 2 but that will have to wait. I have instead decided to give you a glimpse into the amazing world of THE GREEN DINOSAUR TAPE!

Some of you may already be aware of this marvellous object but others will have absolutely no idea what the fudge cakes I am on about (Something with which I am familiar). I shall bring the shining light of the tape into your dark life reader! (we all know what you do when no one’s around Steve (definitely worth adding words to freak out any Steve's)). This tape pretty much defined my entire childhood it is (as the name implies) a small green tape about dinosaurs … with a twist! The twist in this case is that all of the facts that they are trying to force young child like minds to learn are skilfully hidden in the form of catchy songs and or lame poems (I had forgotten about the lame poems … but the songs more than make up for it) I suggest you go out and find this tape or a digital version of it.

I’ll be honest with you now reader (I think our relationships at that point now) … I don’t prepare to write these posts (I know it’s hard to believe) meaning that I have literally no idea what to type right now … I suppose we could talk about you? No? Fair enough, you’re a private person, I get that … See what's happened now though? We’ve got nothing to speak about. If you’d only shared a simple fact we could have gone on for hours but now I’m just going to fizzle out as my mind struggles to piece together simple sentences.

Anyway I’m going to try to write a post about rock band 2 (unless the postman decides that he would like to bring me rock band 3 …) at some point in the near future. I know no one is reading this (why would you) but I’m going to keep going … like resilient mould, clinging to your shower wall that, no matter how hard you scrub, won’t go away …

this blog?

So I haven’t really posted on here, and when I did they were random and made no sense … that’s fine though, that’s me, that’s what I do, I talk about random things and confuse everyone.

Anyway I’ve decided that I kind of want to start writing bloggy things (even though no one will read them … because I have no friends (I jest I have hundreds (again I jested(?) … I have some friends (that makes it sound like I haven’t got many friends … I do …)))) but anyway I want to start posting and at the moment I have no idea what I’m going to post, more random things? Almost definitely. things that will astound and confuse everyone? Again almost definitely. So I thought I’d start with this and then I’ll probably write a post about rock band 2 (not 3 because the postman has not brought it to me yet (because he is lazy)) and because rock band 2 is awesome!
