First of all, i watched the new Iraq war film 'The Hurt Locker'. The story follows a small group of US soldiers who form an elite Army bomb squad in Iraq where everyone is a potential enemy and every object could be a deadly bomb. The film is full of suspense from the start right to the very end. It makes you realise what some of the guys out there go through day in day out and what a hostile environment it must be out there. I think i'm safer sticking in the saddle for the time being!
After this i caught up on Transformers 2 which i've been meaning to see since it came out. Following on from the first film which although was proper cheeeeesy, was a good watch nonetheless! It's hard to describe the film without giving too much away but it follows the constant battle between the bad transformers (the decepticons) against the band of good ones (the Autobots) led by Optimus Prime. Cought up in this carnage of metal is the Human Sam Witwicky and his "rather pretty!" girl friend.. the original founders of the transformers in the first film. The basic plot is ... the Good robots fight the Bad robots in an effort to save the bad ones from destroying earth! As i said... cheesy but still definately worth seeing! It's actually quite moving at a couple of moments... then i realised what i was watching and "manned up"!
A couple of other classics i've been working my way through are... The Bourne Identity, the second one and the third one! Probably about the 100th time i've done the trilogy but still awesome.
Next on the list, District 9, Ice-Age 3 (still haven't seen it!)... any other recomendations please post!
Also anyone got any ideas on stuff they want me to blog about outside the cycling scene...? Let me know.
Lunch time.
A+
Felt obliged to put up a photo of Megan Fox... Sam's girl in Transformers... enjoy.
