A kick ass night in with the boys

Sunday nights may just be one of my favorite nights of the week a general rule is that i have a beverage or two and hang out with friends, playing COD and watching films. If i was a stonner then i feel that i would be the king of the stonners on a Sunday.

This particular sunday was quite special as a good friend of mine returned from traveling so after a pub lunch with friends and a good old catch up me and christopher headed to TESCOS to pick up supplies, and ooooooooooooooooooooh did i get supplies oreo's and chocolate fudge frijj!!!!!!!!!!! apparently you can now microwave the milkshake to make it into a hot chocolate this is something i found after consuming two bottles damn it!
Right from Tesco to the 'Fungalow'. A place where dreams are made and crushed all in one night, for those who are unaware of what a fungalow is it is a "fun" bungalow thus making it a Fungalow, you thought Pat Sharp had a fun house this place takes it too a whole new level but beware if you enter nudity is most probable.

So after a few games of COD we discussed over the thousands of films my friend who we shall call Sames Jannard has to offer.
What a collection you must be thinking but it is not all good he is the downloading devil but for one night and one night only I will lower my standards and watch a illegal film. As i sat there grumpy faced flicking through this huge catalogue of films pondering over the odd one Inglorious Basterds pops up and get as big shout from the two gentleman buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut i carry on and i see the flick that has chosen us for the night their it is KICK ASS :) 



I loved this film at the cinema it made me want to realizer all of those childhood fantasies of being batman and generally trying it on with Barbie and Cindy. Its such a great film i love everything about it so this next bit is going to be me brown nosing this film to its full extent sorry for this.
I just love it every kid thought at some point in their life they could be the defender of their tiny town. The only problem is that i would never have had the balls or the time on my hands to do such a thing.

The best thing about Kick Ass is his costume a green and yellow wet suit, marigolds and some cat boots he just looks cracking. He looks like if i attempted to get suited up as a superhero thats what id come up with, non of this Iron Man crap its all about CAT boots and metal sticks.
Onto the CAT boots if you have ever tried to run in these, you would defo not be picking these as your footwear to be fighting crime in. Just walking in them is like having The Titanic strapped to your legs.

Sooooooooooo hello Nicholas Cage one of the greatest actors of all time id happily let you switch on leicesters christmas lights. This really is a great performance bravo good sir bravo.

This story has a great love story in it as Kick ass pretending to be gay just to get close/touch his prey.
honestly i speak for all men out their if the girl is hot enough id go that far. You may now be thinking thats pathetic and degrading yourself just for a hotty, but if she really is katy Perry or Fearne Cotton hot i would hesitate to get my Louis Spence grove on. This doesnt make me gay as it for a girl :)
Now the big question is, is Kick Ass's girl that hot and after much thinking i'm going with No he does seem to sell himself a little short as he is a superhero after all. Heres a picture to let you make your own opinion. Here she is boys and girls and boy was i wrong WOW WOW WOW she looks so different! could this be my new celebrity obsession???? 



Another brilliant moment in this film is the BIIIIIIIIIIIG black body guard and the bazooka oh how he loves that bazooka.
its hilarious, i'm not going to drop any quotes in because of my complexion and tone of voice just doesn't match his.

To sum this film up if you like some matrix like action great comedy an original storyline and apparently a gorgeous girl. This film is truly brilliant, as cliche as it is Kick Ass truly is Kick Ass. Well done Jonathan Ross's wife.

one thing i did find out that the lead in the film Aaron Johnson 19, is engaged and expecting a baby with Artist Sam Taylor-Wood???????????
this has taken me by surprise its just a little bizarre as when he is 35 his child will be 16 and she will be on the verge of her 60th birthday? Hollywood is bonkers.

Other films you can find mr Johnson in is "Going Somewhere Boy" when he plays John Lennon very much worth a watch.

So as the film came to a close with explosions going off everywhere, Mr Cooper pipes up from the corner...... Erm i thought it would be funnier, i normally accept people opinions on films but this time he is WRONG, WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG. Even though people assumed this film is going to be hilarious, it shouldnt be expected to be that its got some great comedy in it but it really is a top quality action film cant you see how much he's enjoying it?

right i'm going to wrap this up as i've probably taken up enough of your time tonight, but its been emotional. Just before i go has anyone seen Donkey Punch? as i purchased it for a whole £2 yes big spending and wow did i instantly understand why it was this price. If you are unsure what a donkey punch is please google it but i do apologize.

Goodnight all thatnkyou for your time happy Movember i hope you all are still non shaving this month to help a bro grow a mo.

much love and stay safe.

Last night.

As i got into bed after a nice hot shower and feeling somewhat relaxed i popped on the DUUUUUVDUH, really quite excited to start watching a film and then having to write about my thoughts and opinions on it :).
So i lay there trying so hard to concentrate, scoffing on tootie frooties and sipping on coke i even watch the adverts. Which are not quite as exciting as the ones in the cinema so much so that i cant remember them.

Anyway anyway anyway ill give you the basic idea of the film before i ramble on some more.
Steve Carrell plays a single father of three girls, whilst away at a family get together he meets a woman who turns out to be his brothers piece.
dun dun duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun.

honestly thats the jist and whoever put laugh out loud funny on the box
really must have been watching a different film. because i found it quite sad and very very very chick flicky I don't know if it was the sugar overdose from the coke or the E numbers from the sweets but i really didn't get haha funny from it.
This does not mean i did not enjoy it i found it good yet easy to watch annnnnnnnnnnnd it sent me to sleep as i dont remember seeing the end, wooooops.
I can remember thinking that it had a few actors in it, that when they come on screen you go ooooooooooooooooooooooooh i know her thats ross' ex's lesbian lover from friends and hey thats martin craine, fraisers dad from fraiser! so i found that a particular highlight.
Another thing is that it really made me want to go to the sea at winter, dress up warm and cosy take a trip, anyone out there fancy it?
i really dont have that much to talk about for it because all in all it was just ok. Would i watch it again probs cause its very easy to watch.

Today has changed my life forever with the introduction of random.org!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you can randomize your own list so from now on i'll be choosing my nightly films via this method and letting fait/electronics choose my viewings :)

All my love

Hello and thankyou for having me.

Hellllllllllllllllllllo blog world, welcome and hello to my little piece of the social network.
i've tried to do this before and bottled it at the last minute so this time my quite pointless thoughts on films and media are about to be published to the world.......... At this point i apologize for what is probably going to be word upon word and picture upon picture of useless crap :).

So now its only fair that you've taken the time to have a peep or even if you have just stumbled across me, i give you a little insight into myself.
right so here we go im a 23 year old youth (using the word youth helps me keep my youth) and i've got a serious addiction to films so as I LOVE DVDS i thought its right i started to write about all these flicks that i watch. I'm gonna mention this again im not reviewing these films just casting my thoughts across them.

Right now as im trying to decide what film to watch tonight i feel like a very gay slightly nervous sarah jessica parker. This is not a good feeling for a straight 23 year old male. I'm really looking forward to getting these blogs up and running so i hope you'll all be nice :).

what to watch what to watch what to watch. I've been thinking quite hard over a crafty plate of spag bol and glass off squash, how to start this off? Whether to watch a classic or to start off with a massive BANG well more like a moderate clap, or just something i feel like watching. After much more deliberation i've decided for the later and i'm going to watch 'DAN in real life'.


This film is still in its wrapper so not only am i watching a film i've never seen i also get to rip it out of the packet, double win for me :).
I'm a big Steve Carell fan so this should be good fun no matter what and apparently from the cover it says its laugh out loud funny and thats always a bonus.
I've just had a quick glance and this is as the blurb describes it as a feel good comedy, so its not going to be full balls, nudity and comedy violence such as 40 year old virgin and anchorman but im sure Carrell wont disappoint.

saying this ive just looked at the directors (peter hedges) back catalogue and the only recognizable title for me was 'about a boy' and the rest also sound very chick flicky.
Right now im feeling like Sarah Jessica Parker again................. Oh god.
So ive just ripped the packaging to pieces, which made me smile alot. Honestly the littlest things can sometimes be the best. As this is a very special occasion and it is the first time my evening with a dvd has extra meaning i thought it was only right that i went out and treated myself.....


YESSSSSS that is festive coke and tooty frooties :) so tonight even has snacks right now i'm very very very excited for such a eventful evening, i'm not going to lie i wanted crisps and dip but tescos had sold out of humus.......NOT COOL.

anyway i hope this film lives upto such a built up night because i dont think ill ever go out and get snacks again, so tonight truly is a memorable occasion. Wish me luck and i shall be in contact shortly just to let you know how i got on.


Stay beautiful internet people.

all my love
