i blog on saturdays

yes it's true
i am one of these people who blog on saturdays
sometimes i do it on sundays too
that makes me feel very naughty ;)

ok as promised a review of the film i went to see last night
it was Smokin' Aces (click the link for a short trailer) and it was pretty good
i was surprised to see how good ryan reynolds actually was in his role (a far cry from the college antics of van wilder) he compared fairly well to ray liotta, andy garcia and ben affleck in this film. as a story goes, there was a lot of kill-gore (not always a bad thing), plenty of twists and turns, some of which i got, some i didn't until it was all unravelled in the closing scene. there was a fair amount of weird shit going on too, pretty much anything with the tremor brothers characters in it was weird...including a possible reference to texas chainsaw massacre or evil dead...either was there was some chainsaw wielding action going on in there...
there were a few things that i wasn't sure on
the ending left a little to be desired, the plot twists unravelled into a big heap on the floor and that wasn't what i thought was the best possible way of doing it.
but considering it's brought to you by the same people who made four weedings nadna funeral and love actually, it seems like a bit of a departure from their norm...and for a first attempt* at breaking into the genre owned by tarantino and the like, it wasn't a bad attempt

anyway
i'm still up on 25 peeps, they must be having a quiet time over there or something at the moment for me not to have dropped of the face of the earth yet
and i think the bidding is still going over at the auction but i'm still only on $10, oh well, i'm not complaining, it's good to know that i've raised that much for charity by just being me :)

in other news
there is no other news today, it's saturday, and i've got nothing
nothing to do today either
i'm almost finished with my book, make love by bruce campbell, it's pretty funny, very easy to read, but unless you're a fan of his it's probably not worth picking up...expect a review of that too when i've finished it (possibly tomorrow...)
i'm nearly done with the lego starwars game for the PS2, might mean that i've got to go and buy the second installment, i've picked it up several times, just never bought it. this game is awesome though, seriously!

anyway i think that's me done for now, apart from reminding you all to click and bid and just to say that i hope those of you who listened to it appreciated yesterday's choice for the weekend, it's still there, but i've turned the auto play off
laters peeps
