Beer, Film, Return of Top Gear

Last weekend, I seemed to have kept myself fairly busy.

On the Friday evening I went out with a few people I know and got really drunk. That being about as much as I can remember about that unfortunately. .

However on Saturday after having missed the bus into town about 3 times, I eventually met up with a group of friends and set out for the cinema. The film of choice was to be Heartbreak Kid. While it’s not often I’ll go see a romantic comedy, I am also a a fan of Ben Stiller as a comedian/actor. As such the film definitely had it’s funny points and there wasn’t as of the typical sappy moments that would would normally find in this genre as you would in say a Hugh Grant film. As every-time there seemed to be one a joke of some sort got thrown in, be it physical comedy such as one scene where Eddie Cantrow (Ben Stiller) and Lila (Malin Akerman) are both riding their bikes and as they try to kiss, Lila’s bike flips due to having rode into point metal box.

Overall Heartbreak Kid isn’t one I’d go out of my way to see, but was still enjoyable to watch.

Then onto Sunday. Sundays for me typically envolve sitting around relaxing listening to music, watching TV and playing games at the moment. This one wasn’t really any different except for the fact that Top Gear has returned to the screens again. Which always makes for great evening viewing, as some people may remember during the summer the Top Gear props warehouse was a victim of arson. So as a result throughout the show the presenters would make references to it as some segments of the shows props were destroyed while others had survived. What made it funny was that Clarkson was blaming 5th Gear for the fire and compared some recent news about them to Top Gear and how they’d done it first and on a grander scale.

That just about wraps up the main things for last weekend, shame the post was about a week late though, been fairly busy this week.
