Yeah! I saw "Iron Man 2" today at the Genesis cinemas. It was a high turn out as the cinema hall was filled to capacity.
Its a good film but I prefer the first one.

How did I know you'd say that? I didn't think anything could top the first one as that one seemed a complete and completed story. Wrapped up. Finito. Done

"Iron Man 2" is still worth having a look sha.

I hope they get recovered soon.

Na wah. Not likely to be recovered if it was restored from its last back-up point. Spikie I recall you saying, watch something Sunset. I saw Up in the Air because I read your review and it sounded like something I'd like. No review of the sunset thingie. Besides, you never saw As Good As It Gets, though it's twice as funny and witty as Up in the Air, scoring seven Oscar nominations and winning three or so. Dirt-digging on Obinna and Vesc,hey?

Battlestar Galactica.

Where to start? The beginning.

I started this series with a biased mind. I cherish Star Trek: Voyager so much that I didn't want this Galactica thing to come knock it off. Before I go on, I'll just say Star Trek: Voyager and most of the other Star Treks are better sci-fi series. Far better. For so far into the future, the technology featured in this series is bland and unimaginative. The whole thing seemed so amateurish. I hate the CGI of the centurions. Many times absurd things were accommodated to ensure the story fits or to set a template for later or to just plain prolong the thing. The politics. The press. The prophecies. God! I could talk on and on about my misgivings about these three Ps. But I won't. Suffice to say they were all OVERDONE! OVERKILL! E don too much! Then the raiders and centurions are distinctly dumb in combat. For such a brilliant idea of cyborg fighter aircraft, I'd expect a more effective killing machine as killing should be first nature. You don't think about walking, or how to plot coordinates to guide food into your mouth, do you? I'd expect the raiders to kill with similar efficiency. But not so. The universe is a very very big place and with their FTL drives and all, it is almost ridiculous that there's no extra-terrestial life anywhere. It doesn't have to be intelligent. It just has to be life.

Anybody who reads the above will think I hate the frakking thing. Au contraire. If you call it a sci-fi series as it is supposed to be you'll have a heart attack. But if you just look at it as a futuristic story with what would appear a sci-fi backdrop, you'll survive. This series by some twist of fate presents some of the best acting I've ever seen on a series. Its being a sci-fi series makes this feat even more impressive. The characters are and the spectra of emotion they exhibit are so so RICH. My favorite character is Dr./Vice President/President Gaius Baltar. This guy is phenomenal. Absolutely. Col. Tigh (after he lost his mind along with his eye) was a revelation. Whoever's idea it was to introduce the word frak should be given a Nobel prize. It made a lot of things easier to say. Me, I'm a good boy and I don't swear but I love to see others do it.

The spirituality in the series proves the sayings that 'the more things change, the more they remain the same' and that 'history repeats itself'. The same things really. I enjoyed all the struggles the people had with spirituality but it stopped enchanting me when it seemed the cylons started to have more spiritual clarity than the humans themselves and started to see universal patterns that were invisible to humans. What? It got the makers into a tangle and they were struggling to reconcile all the prophecies and all the parts everyone had to play in it and the best they could come up with was Kara Thrace's time travel and return with a colossal hunch as to the whereabouts of earth. This kinda thing is what spoiled Lost for me. Endless ridiculous twists. Most series that are continuous suffer from this kinda thing. Inflexible flexibility I'll call it.

For the raunchies, there're enough foine women to fantasize about. As there are foine men. I'm just saying. I know people who watch shows just to see people frak

I'm tired and I can't really do a comprehensive analysis but it is one hell of a series. Much under-rated. I think they probably didn't have enough funds to really bring their ideas to life but what a show. What a show. I'm glad I finished it.

Max. Now, you should see Star Trek: Voyager. It was made way earlier than Battlestar Galactica but you wouldn't know.

Noemie Lenoir is recovering after a failed suicide bid.

French model Noemie Lenoir - one of the regular faces of Marks & Spencer's high-profile fashion campaigns - is recovering today after attempting suicide at the weekend, it has been revealed.

The 30-year-old was found unconscious by a man walking his dog in a forest in La Celle-Saint-Cloud, on the outskirts of Paris, on Sunday afternoon. It is believed that she swallowed a potent mixture of alcohol and drugs at the home of her on-off boyfriend, ex-Chelsea player Claude Makelele, with whom she has a five-year-old son, Kelyan.

"After coming to, Noemie was in a state of great distress and clearly very ill," a source close to the model told the Daily Mail. "She had clearly attempted to harm herself and had fallen unconscious. She was rushed to a nearby hospital and treated for the effects of poisoning. It seems that she had tried to commit suicide as a cry for help. She's now in a far better condition and recovering."

Police in Paris confirmed the news, with a spokesperson confirming, "A young woman age 30 was found unconscious in La Celle-Saint-Cloud on Sunday afternoon. She was rushed to hospital for treatment for the effects of an overdose. She is now recovering well."

Her relationship with Makelele is known to be rocky; he has been linked to numerous other women since their relationship began in 2003.

I remember seeing her in Rush Hour 3 and thinking, my my what a gorgeous woman!
People have problems and all but isn't it rather selfish attempting to kill yourself when you have a 5 year old son?

John Callis was simply fantastic. I wanted to personally hand him every acting award on the planet. The woman president whose character changed subtly over the entire series was good too. And Saul was like a schizo, one in the Resistance, one on the ship. And the Commander. I wouldn't mind him commanding me. Dualla was the only weak acting link. But eye candy for men, I take it. I didn't mind since Helo was there for us wimmin. I laughed outright at the CGI when I first began, but soon got caught up in the story. For me: BG isn't perfect sci-fi, none is, but it's the best. The mystery you dislike is a plus for me, and one of the reasons I love LOST.

Spikie I enjoyed Up in the Air o. It 's one of those rare movies where all the leads are simply marvellous. I mentioned it would get Oscar nominations. It had to. But it's not in As Good As It Gets' league. Jack Nicholson simply owned that role, and earned that Best Actor Oscar.
Poor woman. Try to kill yourself at 30? And with a son? What on earth could have happened? Could it be the boyfriend? Some people do kill themselves over another person. I heard Kate Hudson drove Owen Wilson to suicide.

It's going to be the most awesome movie of 2010. Nolan doesn't know how to disappoint. I can't wait.

I came across the trailer of a movie called "THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU". It stars Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Terence Stamp & Anthony Mackie.
It has a release date for September 17, 2010.

Leap Year? Na wa o! You really have time to be watching wack movies.

I liked Amy Adams with James Marsden in Enchanted, and wanted some light entertainment. I didn't know the thing would be dumb.

An English documentary filmmaker chances across her father's diaries about a group of young Indian men that led a rebellion in the 1920s. Excited she hops to India to make a historical documentary about it. Her friend introduces her to her clique of buddies, a group of happy, carefee youths, from whom both women endure much good-natured ribbing. Commissioned to bring the historical characters to life in the documentary, they take neither the script nor the people involved seriously, as they can't relate with the revolutionaries. It was a different India, and so long ago. But as we watch the actual rebellion unfold through these characters, something begins to happen to the youths themselves. The movie tracks their transition from a beer-swigging, humourous band of boys to social revolutionaries. Like the rebels before them, they discovered it was the same old India afterall.

Bollywood movies are cursed with melodrama and overacting, and there is a single surreal instance of this in the movie, but I've few complaints. The script and acting was great, though the music was only so-so. Aamir is one of the very finest actors in Bollywood, and he leads a great cast. A good movie. Well done.

I think i'm lesbian, i'm still studying me. But i figured long ago that i'm psychotic cos i'm willing to bomb the white house, just so that Megan Fox can curse the day i was born with those extraordinarily luscious lips of hers. And in that breathless way she talks.

Did you mention Megan?
ooh!

Welcome, Rockstation. Exactly what we need. Another Meganized loony.We've long diagnosed your problem, JK, but you won't get help.

I've seen Water. Switch control? I've long stopped expecting sublety from Bollywood. As long as the 'actor' doesn't jump from a two-storey building onto a horse or bike, I'm OK.
