So.
Yer, I'm still alive. Went to see that thar Bourne Supremacy, s'alright. Too much complicated conspiracy theory, and camerawork shakier than my grasp of Swahili (very), but an awesomecool.exe Moscow drift session in Ladas. The bloke manages to bash about a million other vehicles, but the car only stops once it's hit a wall head-on. The Russian arch-nemesis with the silver Walther is far leater though, carjacking a lady out of her Mercedes G-Wagen (oh yeah!) for the ultimate street-race finale. Action-wise, it was a pretty lame film.
Got the new Soulwax album, it's alright, heavier than the older stuff and more electronic, but it seems more commercialised and blandworthy. NY Excuse is fairly catchy, but it has o-so-annoying female Ozzie vocals, totally wannabe Kylie (who isn't that good in the first place, and her buttocks aren't really much special, whatever other people say). It'll take another few listens before I can make a proper judgement on the album, it seems okay but not the most excellent thing ever. No matter what the critics say, the new Prodigy album seems buyage-worthy, the tune off that BMW 1-series ad is from it, which is maybe worth the price itself. Girls is decent too, reminds me rather of Being Boiled in places, might try to slip it into my WIP megamix which is about to progress in a BB direction. The Way It is basically a cover of MJ's Thriller instrumental, quite boring TBH. Apart from that, I haven't heard any of the album, but I may still purchase...
Gaming-wise, I've gotten bored enough to pick up my PS2 controller again and play stuff, the stuff being Baldur's Gate DA2. It's remarkably relieving to walk up to somebody and smack them in the face with an axe. Especially when the axe is on fire. And you somehow are managing to swing one in each hand. Yes, carnage XXL, especially when you bring in fire-launching crossbows. Tony Hawk's Underground lasted a fair while, completed it about 3 times, only takes 5 hours or so, generally do the whole thing in 1 sitting (1am-6am one time, hardcore leatness! 8-D ). Wandered back to NFSU (eep), just cruising round circuits many times in a stock-look Dodge, began a new career mode game but got bored quickly. Boredom seems to be the name of the game currently, onyl another 3 weeks to waste until college gives me something to do. On that subject, I managed to not fail my As-levels, not even ICT, in which I made it pretty clear to the teacher bloke that he was shit, I didn't care about his subject, and I wanted to fail. An E grade then was quite amazingly high. Most stunning of all was my Computing grade, A (omg wtfbbq). For 3 hours' worth of coursework, and two 1h 30 exams that took less than an hour total, it's rather fab. It helped that the exams were simpleness 2 da xtreme, abundant with questions such as 'what does LAN stand for?'. Maths and Physics went okay despite the exams being evilhardnasty, I dropped a lot of marks on the first Maths paper but luckily it doesn't count any more as the government in their infinite wisdom decided to fuck about with the course for laughs, so technically now we've done half of 2nd year already, and we need to resit the first paper twice so it counts on the new syllabus. Cripes.
