Snakes On A Plane

Ahh yeah, I saw Snakes On A Plane a couple of weeks ago, I know it’s supposed to be a silly b-grade film, but it really didn’t make me laugh much, and I thought it was all a bit lame truth be told. To make up for that… I’ve rented, watched and enjoyed a bunch of art-house and foreign films of late… Paris, Texas great film, one of Harry Dean Stanton’s best roles. Crash the perverted, disturbing, almost pornographic, sex, car crash, fetish, 1996 film with James Spader. Also finally got to see Gus Van Sant’s Last Days I wish there had been subtitles, so I could have understand what the Kurt Cobain type character was actually mumbling about the entire movie, it’s slow going like most of Gus Van Sant’s films. I had a bit of a Monica Bellucci session with Ricordati di me (Remember Me) and How Much Do You Love Me, both very entertaining with lots of great emotional and physical passion… and she’s such a beautiful woman, I think I might have to buy How Much Do You Love Me. I also watched the Clive Owen & Angelina Jolie movie Beyond Borders which is actually quite a powerful movie, and I don’t think I’d seen it before. Last week’s DVD purchase… I finally bought myself a copy of the classic Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas on sale for $20. I get huge laughs out of that every time I watch it…

Kenny…

Kenny 

Last w/end, I went and saw Kenny http://www.kennythemovie.com/ at the movies. It’s a really funny and heartwarming Australian film/mockumentary about a decent aussie bloke… Kenny, who has to deal with a lot of sh*t… in every way possible. He’s a really likeable character. I really enjoyed the film, I’d go as far as to say it’s one of my fave movies this year. Here’s what Margaret and David from the Movie Show (ABC TV) had to say about Kennyhttp://www.abc.net.au/atthemovies/txt/s1697820.htm

A couple of audio podcasts…
http://www.kennythemovie.com/podcast/KENNY_Episode_01.mp3
http://www.kennythemovie.com/podcast/KENNY_Episode_02.mp3

Speaking of movies… I also watched a few DVDs on the w/end (as usual)… Rented and watched Firewall and A History Of Violence, not too bad, bit predictable. I also bought and watched The Mosquito Coast, which I always enjoy re-watching, a great film, couldn’t resist buying it along with Christine that Stephen King/John Carpenter 1980’s movie about the possessed car, $9 each brand new, DVDs are getting so cheap! Is this a way of getting rid of stock before the HD DVDs arrive? Speaking of HD DVD, If Blu-ray and the PS3 don’t take off in a big way Sony is going to be in a lot of trouble huh!

Watching live TV in the sky…

Virgin Blue Boeing 737-700

Late last week, I spent a couple of full days working in the sky… Flying between Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, and Perth in a Virgin Blue Boeing 737-700 doing private test flights. I was testing out the new “Lve 2 Air” service, which puts 24 channels of live FOXTEL (pay TV) on seat-backs on Virgin Blue planes, using a special satellite tracking antenna attached to the top of the plane. It works great, a few issues, but they should be sorted out quickly, it’s a very enjoyable way to pass the time, it’s a $6 credit card swipe.

It was a fun couple of days work, watching live TV in the sky, with friendly flight crew laying on the food/drink, and a nice stop-over hotel/dinner/breakfast in Melbourne. On the flights we got an entire row of seats across the aircraft to ourselves (you never see that these days!), and we were asked to monitor channels for any issues. I also got to spend 30 minutes in the cockpit chatting to one of the pilots during our track across to Perth, learning what all the control panel’s buttons, switches, and screens are used for, not something you have the chance to do at all these days, a great experience. If I had been quicker off the mark I might have been able to secure the jump-seat for a take off or landing. The aborted landings in Brisbane and Adelaide were quite exciting, coming in to land, then rapidly ascending into the sky seconds before touch down. I got to spend a whole 8 minutes in Perth at the airport terminal, while the plane refueled, so I didn’t really get to ‘visit’ anywhere, apart from a night in Melbourne at an airport hotel.

Yum, Hoegaarden…

Filed under: General — decoded_ @ 10:20 pm

Hoegaarden

Yum, Hoegaarden. I rarely drink alchohol at home, but tonight I really felt like some beer. It’s been a busy day at work, topped off by frustration and annoyance having to wait an hour to get a bus home. So when I finally got to my hood, I grabbed a 4 pack of these and a couple of pizzas on the way home. Now I’ve just drank all 4 rather quickly and I feel fuzzy. It’s such a nice tasting beer. God I’m such a ‘bloke’.

5015…

Filed under: Music — decoded_ @ 9:29 pm

Just thinking out loud… What’s happened to 5015 aka DJ Kei Fujimoto from Gifu Japan? His site has gone http://www.ismusic.ne.jp/5015 and he’s not been responding to e-mails? I hope all is ok, are you out there Kei?. I used to enjoy visiting his site regularly, checking out his charts, and downloading his mixes which were always full of the freshest choicest techno releases. I featured a few on my Internet radio show decoded_.

Watching you on the screen…

Filed under: Films — decoded_ @ 9:18 pm

I’ve watched a heap of movies over the last few days.

On Friday I went and saw the Miami Vice movie, I liked it, it’s dark and edgy, and thankfully nothing like the Hollywood ‘all action’ blockbuster movie it’s being hyped as in the movie trailers, and TV adds. Damn, that Jay-Z & Linkin Park ‘Encore/Numb’ track they’ve used is catchy! Anyway, If you like Mann’s Collateral and Heat movies, I think you’ll like Miami Vice too. I’ll try write up a little review soon.

V V’s Guy Fawkes mask

On Saturday and Sunday, I did some heavy chillin’, watched a few DVDs. Rented and watched… Match Point mmm Scarlet Johansen! Rented and watched… Happy Endings mmm Maggie Gyllenhaal! I bought and watched V For Vendetta mmm Natalie Portman, that’s such an awesome movie. I also rented and watched, err… Fun With Dick And Jane. I’ve just ruined my cred now huh? Aww come on, I needed some cheap laughs, I shouldn’t laugh though I lost my job when WorldCom collapsed, I didn’t go that crazy though! I also found myself watching…  Rambo: First Blood which was on TV until the early hours of Monday morning, but was ruined by all those mobile phone, text-message, dating, fun, chat, flirting type adds on TV at that hour, so irritating! Is that seriously how people meet other people these days?
