I haven't posted in a while, largely due to the fact that I've "found my mojo" somewhat with my creative writing, so have been working on getting my book and one of my scripts ready for sending (roll on the barrage of rejections).
I've also been back to my old socialable self and have been enjoying drunken bbqs, trips to the beach and general hangage. I've also dragged my sorry arse to the cinema several times for a couple of really good films (and one terrible one!)
Starting with the bad, I cannot insult "Priest 3D" enough. It was rubbish, nonsense and actually quite boring. The stuff that was OK was all scenes that felt like they had directly been ripped off from other films (see Star Wars, The Matrix and even Goldeneye). Between that and "Legion", I've no idea what happened to Paul Bettany's career. And why Karl Urban, who in my mind was the best thing about the excellent Star Trek reboot, got involved I have no idea. I hope they paid him well. The film was made even worse by the fact that the sidekick's love interest looked about 14, unintentionally adding an unnecessarily creepy element to the whole thing.
I've got Thor and Scream4 to cover as well, but I'm off to see Pirates 4 now for Mum's birthday, so they'll have to wait.
But seriously, avoid Priest 3D at all costs...
