Be Aggressive....

SPOILER ALERT!
I just came back from watching Jumanji : The Next Level.... And... And... yes, good film, the wife and I like them, but I was very ... LIKE VERY... surprised to hear a reference to "Be Aggressive"...

A song from Faith No More's 1992 album "Angel Dust", an album I not only own but own two copies of in different formats, but it's a family film...  In case you missed it, the song is about oral sex, rough oral sex.

So a family film, and the character who made the reference is like what 18, 20 at most, and I can't for the life out of me figure out the pop-culture link from 1992 to that characters mind even via an older script writers pen.

Its gnawing at me (no pun intended) like some ungodly experiment in Kevin Bacon's six degrees of separation.


I just hope that it's not some cheer leader chant the parents are snickering about making their cherub kids sing about from the side lines.

RIP Roger Moore

Today has gone from bad to worse... Aside from the tragic attack in Manchester, for which I'm sure we all send out heart felt thoughts, I also want to send my little thoughts to the family of my favourite Bond.... Sir Roger Moore


I think it perhaps fitting tribute that just this weekend we enjoyed his dashing portrayal of our favourite double 0 in "The Man with the Golden Gun".

Michael Bay - Turtles

I'm a little bit tired of seeing Michael Bay films... And his next turn has been floated into the sewer of existence, this chap says it all better than me... Not east with the creepy fucking Turtle faces... WHAT THE FUCK... 



or this


This ain't fun looking, this ain't good... I'm not even going to watch the film based on this.. Well, crap....

This is how they should look:

Thor, Smaug & Computer Chess - Films

Last night the good lady and myself went to see Thor 2... I'd have to agree with Jingles when he called it "Loki 3"... Thor being Loki 1, the Avengers Assemble being Loki 2 and this film being Loki 3.


As adventure fantasy this is a really nice flick, its got some good laughs, though I had to question the recasting of Fandral, and also the changing they've made to Dr Erik Selvig post Avengers Assemble...

I also love how they kept the damage to London to a minimum... It's like, lets tear New York apart, but they darn't do it to London... As it should be.

The next film I plan to go see is Desolation of Smaug... 


However, I've also spotted this potential geek gem on the grape vine...


Though you can, with careful searching, find this whole film listed on YouTube already, not that I've yet taken a look.
