Tonight Raina and I went and saw Taken, there was no one else in the cinema and when it started they had the wrong movie on.
I enjoyed taken, the story is a man’s daughter is kidnapped while she is on holiday he is some kind of special agent man (played by Liam Neeson) and goes after her. There was lots of action and we both really enjoyed it. I give it 3.8 thumbs up (Awesoments rating pending)
After the movie I said “even if they killed him, he would just return more powerful than they could ever imagine” and we had a laugh. For someone who is 56 he kicked some serious arse in a real physical role.
On friday I had dinner with a friend and watched some bsg it was good times, after that I watched a movie and finally went to bed at 3amish. On sat I went and saw pineapple express, it was a stoner/action flick and was rather amusing I give it a 3.5 thumbs up Rated: ExBmBrLqNAs. Afterwards Jason andI got some beer went back to his place and watched some mighty boosh and Starship troopers 3 which had crapy sfx and was probably lucky to get a 2 thumbs up Rated: ExGrBmRLBsMgFtMcBbSMAn. Then we went to the RSL and then the coast and I left to get a kebab around midnight I think.
Sunday I bought some more dvd’s Robot Chicken season 2, clerks 2 and a triple pack with some kung fu action. haven’t watched any yet but I will at some stage. There was some more beer and might boosh and another movie and then came home.
it was a good weekend, ashame there was no games because I wanted to play games but my computer sucks
I found This today at work and I think from now on movies will get a awesome rating according to this table in a similar fashion to geekcode
I saw forbidden kingdom yesterday with Jason.. it was an enjoyable martial arts movie with Jet Li and Jackie Chan and a bunch of other people. The fight scenes were cool the story was decent..although it woulda been better without a yank. I’ll give it 3.5 thumbs up.
And last night Jason and I went to Rubies Bday party and there was good food and drink and some ear destroying karaoke.
So I haven’t posted for a while I think its time for an update
So Karl what have you been up to?
I’ve seen a bunch of movies and watched a bunch of tv shows and spent time with friends. Of the movies I have seen Batman The Dark Knight stood out as the best one this year..what an excellent movie. Others worthy of mention mostly because I enjoyed them Hancock, Indiana Jones 4, Ironman, The Incredible Hulk. Movies that get a mention because you should avoid them Wanted, Love Guru.
On the TV front I have spread the word of dexter and got a few of my workmates and friends watching it, I have watched many a series and am currently watching the weekly episodes of burn notice, eureka, stargate atlantis, the middleman and weeds. I have also been rewatching babylon 5 and for the first time a show called John Doe.
Work has changed a little I am no long doing Level 1 support and my stuff has moved I’m now in the poorly named hosting unit and my duties are primarily System Admin stuff and some higher level support. I have to say the change has been good and bad..there are many things in use that I am now expected to manage that I know jack all about but fake it anyway, but the best part is not being on the phones even if I do have a manger I have to train.
Thats all for now..if you haven’t seen The Dark Knight see it.
