The first of which of the Film Wanted.

Now wanted in itself pretty much sells itself on it’s special effects in which members of a society of assassins bend bullets trajectory to enable them to manage to pull off spectacular kills on their targets. While the special effects are great the plot isn’t as much so. Though it does manage to pull off a small plot twist which changes the main characters perspective of the world he’s entered since joining the Fraternity.

Though that does bring me on to something else, the fact this assassins society is called the Fraternity just seems a little bit lack luster to me. At least the name Weavers for the individuals with the ability to bend bullets sounds well kinda cool. The weaver name also gets a bit of back story too, but Fraternity just sounds like they pulled the first name out of the air that sounded slightly more exclusive than club.

The other thing that got me out and about recently was the opening night of Propaganda in Swindon.

Propaganda is an indie music night which in Swindon was hosted by Envy.

This opening night had The Hoosiers as guest Djs along with what i believe to be the resident Djs of DJ Dan and Matt Noir. Between them all they play a wide range of indie with the odd couple of hip hop tracks thrown in.  Now this was the first time I’d every been into the Envy part of Liquid/Envy and I have to say I prefer it to Liquid’s interior.

I can’t really think of anything else to say about Propaganda that would do it justice to how great an evening it was, other than I have a new event to turn up to on Thursdays now.

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.
