Episode #204 Shownotes

I'm back from my trip to London and my internet connection seems to have stabilised for the moment, so it's time to write this weeks shownotes.

For those of you who care about the American Football discussed on the show, unfortunately only the Ravens - 49ers game was any good. The other two games were a bit of a let down. The last game was very good though, so I don't regret staying up until 5am before having to travel to London.

While in London I did watch the Nicolas Cage film Justice that I discussed in the show. I now understand why the film company didn't have much faith in the film. It's not very good.


Only one video this week, but it's pretty decent.

Episode #203 Shownotes

One thing that occurred to me whilst I was watching Sucker Punch again is, would it have been better if it had been written by a woman? Apart from the problems I mentioned with the writing in the podcast, I also think that the fantasy sequences are very male. I struggle to believe that a teenage girl would fantasize about giant samurai, steam-punk Nazi zombies and orcs. A different, female writer might have come up with more feminine fantasy fight sequences and might have had better luck melding the three layers of reality.

Not a bad selection of videos this week.

Episode #201 Shownotes

Here's a little YouTube playlist of some of the highlights from my NFL weekend in London. Got none of the actual game since YouTube isn't that good for that kind of thing. Here's videos of performances by The Chicago Bears Drumline, Beardyman and The Goo Goo Dolls as well as the squirrel that invaded the pitch in the 1st Quarter.
