Movie Review of the Month

I have been forced to write about the movies i have seen this last month as I am somewhat in shock at what i am being forced to endure. How the studios can imagine what the masses want to watch I am not sure but they will all surely go bankrupt if the sort of material like this keeps being pumped out apart from the massive blockbusters that I love to see.

1) Avatar, 10/10, Quite frankly the best movie i have seen in many years, it fulfills the soul, the wonderful story about saving an exotic alien planet from the greedy humans, Just a fantastic piece of animation and will be the best movie this decade. Maybe the sequal will be as good.

2) Shutter Island 7/10, it began with a great plot but it soon fell down to being a rather sad and miserable end about an insane man and we were seeing his fantasies and not the real world around him. does this mean i missed the point or am i just spoiled with Avatar.

3) Book of Eli, 5/10, a dark moody miserable sad story of post apocalyptic USA, just miserable and a poor plot, poor acting and black and white filming almost, too dour.

4) Alice in Wonderland, 8/10, great acting and great production but the film was lost on a poor silly children´s story, the film failed to make the story gripping and just drifted along, great for the kids but that is all.

5) All About Steve 2/10, this film was given the Razzies for worst movie for 2009, and yes it was appalling, just Sandra bullock being dizzie was not fun to watch, we had to turn it off for being so poor.

6) Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, 5/10, just a really silly plot with little substance and a few names in it, just crappy and silly, maybe not even worth a 5. dont bother renting it,

if this is the best movies that the industry can come up with it is doomed apart from Avatar and Alice, I dont even bother with the typical crappy movies that just fill the cinemas up, so i dont think they have much of a future.

Garmin Robbers

I bought a Garmin GPS about 1 year ago and it is a fantastic device and it is so easy to use. The only problem is that I got it in early 2009 which means the maps are at least early 2008 and it has this function to show you mobile speed camera positions which is very useful for not getting speeding tickets. Also the device kept telling me to go to Garmin.com and update the mobile camera positions, I hooked up my Garmin to the laptop for the first time this week and it sent me to Garmin.com to get the application that does the communication and then it was so easy to update, it checked the device and offered me some firmware update and then some other function updates and then asked if i was interested in map updates, hell yeah i said and pushed the button to take me to the map updates, Robbers, the map updates are almost as expensive as the device was to buy the first time, also the mobile speeding camera update is a yearly subscription which at 35€ is friggin silly money, the map updates were $130, i paid about $150 for the device, wither the device is a giveaway or the maps are stupidly overpriced, I think they are stupidly overpriced, how can they think that the maps are worth that much, if they were 10€ then i wouldn´t have even thought about it, 20€ would have been pushing it, but 100€ is just talking on crack sort of money. assholes.


A great invention but they are frigging crack heads

The Horn has Gone

I had been searching without success for a clinic where i could have my horn removed( Pilar Cyst), it is a simple thing but as always doctors cannot be bothered with a simple thing, in fact they really only want to dish out pills not do anything that might take a while and involve blood. So as we went to the local big town shopping on thursday we saw a clinic and I stuck in my head and asked if they do cysts and the nurse owner said yes, it must have been a quiet day. She said come and in and we will do it right away. I was shocked stunned and very happy all at the same time. She didn´t shave my head, she just put a cloth with a hole in it on my head and they stuck a very sharp scalpel into the horn, I didn´t feel a thing, she made a little cut, she said it didn´t bleed at all, she then picked up some long thin tongues that she poked about inside the cyst and broke it all up into small pieces and pulled it out, she also squeezed it quite vigorously making it erupt some clear liquid that hit her in the face. it took a little over 20 minutes and she charged me 120€, I was happy as that is far cheaper than i expected, probably as it was a nurse and not a doctor. So now my head is sore and much smaller, no horn, i just hope the hair will grow on the area now.

Welcome to Spain, We are Going to Demolish Your House

During the last 40 years of the mad housing boom along the spanish coasts, many many houses were built by corrupt builders who bribed the local mayors to look the other way or to approve illegal buildings. This was OK while nobody was really interested but suddenly after many corruption cases the regional government has done a survey and found 10's of thousands of illegal houses and other structures all over the place, so they have now issued demolition orders for hundreds of the houses, doesn't matter who is living in the house, most likely a foreigner mostly Brits and Germans, these owners bought these properties with all legal documents and no hint that something was wrong, but now that some local official deems the property to be illegal, how can they do that, it is a criminal attack on law abiding citizens who bought in good faith and the corrupt ones are long gone with the money and no sign of them getting legal action against them, I am not sure what is prompting them to do this right now, it is a very silly act as all it can do is make it less likely anyone will buy in spain if this could happen to anyone. They should legalise all these structure and try and track down all the corrupt builders and mayors to make them repay some of the huge amounts of money they all made, not the poor retireees who saved all there life to see there lovely villa demolished without compensation.

My Devils Horn So The Little Girl Says

Today I am going to the local Doctors, hopefully to get this pilar cyst removed, it is only 3 months old and it is very sore and irritating, it is growing far too fast, it is now showing through my hair my little girl keeps laughing and saying i am the devil and my horns are growing through. maybe tomorrow I will show the same spot without the cyst,
