The Spirit

No, not the stuff we all like to neck at the weekend but the new movie by the fella who gave us 300 and Sin City. Frankie boy has done it again and this looks divine. I love the way they are starting to think outside the box with direction. Very nice.

IRON MAN does have a easter egg at the end.

Sam Jackson does turn up if you wait the extra 10 minutes through the credits. It's a long wait but worth it. He says, I'd like to discuss the Avengers Initiative with you Mr Stark. Nice little hint at the butler being Starks governing computer Jarvis and plenty of other stuff to keep fanboys happy. I give the movie 8 out of ten. Brilliant actors and a great story for an origin but over all I felt some scenes were over long and a little slow. You'll see what I mean. My favourite bits were the comedy sets and the best scene for serious fellas was the scene where he returns to Afganastan in the mark 3 and kicks terrorist ass. Very solid scene that and I really can't wait to see more of that in the next movie. Amazing special effects and if you disagree with my 8 out of 10 marking then ask yourself this question. Would you walk back in the next day and watch it all again? I wouldn't in this case and will look forward to the DVD but it's not a ten because I wouldn't spend the time and money on it again. Worth a look for fans and those who do not respect Iron Man as the greatest hero on planet earth bar none. Bryan Singer, dos deidos mis amigo.

Homer drawn entirely with CSS

Hilarious and brilliant. This must have driven him nuts.

GTA 4's treatment of women

This is not safe for work or anywhere for that matter. The boys and girls at rockstar have ramped up the sleaze factor in the new game. This is going to offend a lot of people. Makes San Andreas look like a storm in a coffee cup or a smarty in a easter egg.

I love the back of this thing. The read out is awesome. Amazing little number.

Amazing mk3 suit up footage...

WOW. Great piece of footage of Stark being suited and booted. Really amazing seamless effects. Virtually invisible.

BMW M1 is a seventies dream machine...

But a twenty first nightmare if you ask me. This car has something but it is trying to be all things to all people with the seventies retro and the new age pazzaz. I'm in two minds, it looks like a car tat should have been in a 70's sci-fi movie. The color is awful.
