When The Calcium Kid first came out, my friend and I were gonna see it, but very few cinemas had it on and we decided not to waste money paying Ł10+ to see it in the West End and wait for it to be on DVD. Afterall it got terrible reviews. Well I've finally got round to watching it and it's really not as bad as I heard. Oh, and the eye candy's pretty good. Although I think I'd have to be truly obsessed with Orlando Bloom to actually buy it.

No, it's pretty bad.

I watched it with a few friends and anyone hardly laughed, if at all. And it's not hard to make us laugh.

In that case I must have expected the worst. Mind you the ammount of crap I've been watching on Sky movies while I've been off work makes Van Helsing look good.

Deem - Serenity is the best film I've seen this year. English spoken film that is (I watch far too many foreign films).

erm... are films really Ł10+ in the west end?

My local Vue is nearly Ł7 for the ticket and another Ł5 for the popcorn and soda. I pay force discounted prices though, which is student prices - just short of Ł5 a ticket.

You're mad I tell ya, mad! I can take you out, get you into the flicks, buy you popcorn, 10 fags and get you a few beer for under a tenner here in Northern Ireland!

Ok, you might have to dodge the odd bullet and bomb, but it just makes for a more interesting night!

Do you write lyrics for Goldie Looking Chain in your spare time?

Anyway, back to Goldie Looking Chain - These were the lyrics I was thinking, especially the bits that say

I'll buy you ten fags on a daytrip to Caerphilly

I wanna take you to Mcdonalds with a candle

and

I bought you this necklace
It cost me 12 pounds
From Argos, Elizabeth Duke
Maybe you're the skywalker to my luke
The Darth to the Vader
Flip Over the Crossfader
I'll serenade you with a bag of space raiders
Or walkers or smiths or maybe even quavers
