I hereby declare that I think everyone should use Conundruum at least once ever day in their conversation with others.

Monster Hunter World Iceborne: It's like hunting monsters, but on crack, but the monsters are also on crack.

Getting the word into a conversation every day could prove quite the conundrum...

Down at the convent they have two drums and two nun drummers. There's the main nun and her main nun drum, and the co-nun and her conundrum.

NOthing? Really? Not even mocking me for my zany wordplay? Fine then. Back on topic.

Watching Underworld 3. Same deal as the first two. Disengage brain, watch the vampires and werewolves kill each other.

I chuckled, Ray.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

I watched a bit of Hide and Seek last night. Creepy thriller about Robert DeNiro having some kid that goes mental.

I was so terrified after watching 10 minutes I had to switch a way to some fashion programme.

Evil children creep me the fuck out.

Has anyone seen Moon, the new Sci-Fi movie by Duncan Jones (aka Zowie Bowie, David Bowie's son)? I hear it is a bit lo-fi but high on plot and shall endeavour to see it this weekend.

High on pot? I'm there!

Watched Harry Potter today. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible.

I really want to see that, the trailer I saw looked intriguing. I'll have to try and get to see it when I get back to the UK.

Don't look now, but I think there's something weird attached to the bottom of my posts.

Has anyone seen The Hurt Locker ?

I've seen a couple of excellent reviews for this film ( including this one) and it's being touted as the best Iraq war movie to be made so far. Fantastic cast of relative unknowns and heavyweight cameos ( Ralph Fiennes, Guy Pierce, David Morse)

Now all the friends that you knew in school they used to be so cool, now they just bore you.
Just look at em' now, already pullin' the plow. So quick to take to grain, like some old mule.

I just saw it! I hadn't seen any trailers, just one 4* review in Empire. I remember last year, one of the best movies I saw was In Bruges, I hadn't heard anything about it and went in on the off chance and was totally bowled over. This is the same. Quietly brilliant. Despite being based on the Moon, it looks really realistic and (I may have mentioned I'm not a firm believer in the art of 'acting') Sam Rockwell is fantastic. I can't recommend it enough.

It is the second best movie I have seen at the cinema this year. Second to Star Trek that I loved for all the things that Moon is too clever to need.

Never even heard of that, gonna research it and might go see.

Tonight is the night I finally brave watching Indiana Jones and the Ludicrously Nonsensical Story of the Crystal Skull for the first time since seeing it at the cinema.

Will it prove as painful an ending? Will it seem better this time round? Or will I pass out from alcohol abuse before reaching the finale?

It's too close to call. I shall report back spater.
