A film I have yet to see…

Monday, March 26th, 2007

Having followed 300 since its announcement, and having also been a massive fan of Sin City, I must say this review has made me want to see it even more. I suggest you ingest it this moment.

I quote:

1) Awesome, shouty quotes.

300 is the most obscenely quotable movie I have seen in a long time. Truly, quotes such as “Eat your breakfast boys and eat hearty - FOR TONIGHT, WE DINE IN HELL!!!”, eyes shimmering with batshit insaneness or “THIS. IS. SPARTAAA!!” are this generation’s “Hasta La Vista, Baby” and “I ain’t got TIME to bleed”. Respectively. In any case, the macho-tastic quotes in 300 are made five billion times better by the fact that ALL OF THEM ARE SHOUTED. SPARTAN MEN LOVE TO SHOUT. THEY WERE RAISED NEVER TO SURRENDER AND TO SHOUT UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. In fact, it made the rest of the movie without the shouting scenes quite uncomfortable to listen to. I was all up for seeing the boys relaxing round the campfire, screaming at the top of their voices “SPARTANS! WHO WANTS SOME TEA. I HAVE EARL GREY AND LAPSANG SOUCHONG. IN HELL!!!”.

And on a more technical note:

A little game…

Monday, November 6th, 2006

This is a definate time-consumer. I don’t usually play this sort of crap but I will not be defeated. So far I have pig and horse… Don’t worry, its a word association game, and fully safe for work.

Spreading the word

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

I discovered, or was lead to discover this page a long time ago, but having recently enjoyed re-reading it, I have decided to share it with everyone else.

Steve Don’t Eat It is a web page from one man, determined to eat the most disgusting of stuff and tell you, the internet viewer all about it. A strong stomach may be required, and I think that it just be classified as safe for work… just.

Below is a fantastic sample:

Pig Skin Puzzle

While I cannot endorse the eating of Pickled Pork Rinds, I do endorse playing with it like a puzzle. I did have some fun trying to put the pig back together, but eventually that got boring as I lost the will to live.
