I was a huge Red Dwarf fan growing up (still am) so I”m looking forward to the 3 or 4 episodes they are showing later this year.

UKTV have released some pics from the filming of the new episode, taken from none other than Coronation Street.

You can read more about it at the link below.

The famous who’s on first sketch from Abbott and Costello. Enjoy

This is a funny audio clip of Christian Bale going nuts at a Director of Photography on the set of Terminator Salvation. Apparently, this was the second time the guy had just walked onto a really big scene which was being shot and ruined it.

From YouTube :

The DP on TERMINATOR SALVATION, Shane Hurlbut, is a apparently a light tweaker. He’s a fairly young DP and likes to fiddle with his lights on set during action, which is a big “NO NO” on most productions unless worked out in advance with performers. But apparently Shane was a pretty unrepentant light tweaker.

The scene in question, was a very emotional and tough scene between Christian Bale and Bryce Howard. A scene that required soul bearing and a deep level of immersive concentration. The sort of scene where everyone on set knows not to get in anyone’s eye lines, and definitely not to move lights around while FILMING. You lock that shit down before the scene starts.

If you think thats funny, then you may like the dance remix!!

You could fight Mohamed “I’m Hard” Bruce Lee after watching the training section of Rocky 2.

There’s one thing I want you to do for me. Win!!
What are we waiting for!

I’m not a fan of comics but I remember watching Spiderman when I was a kid and used to love it. My friend Joe sent a link to this video tonight so I thought I’d pass it on.

The video below shows some highlights from the original Spiderman TV show, entitled ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’.

Enjoy

I came across some great videos on YouTube today. Some guy has remade some classic Radiohead using 8 bit sound. He’s did it really well too, you can just imagine playing some cheesy nintendo nes platform game with this in the background!

I spoke about Dana White dropping Jon Fitch the other day because he wouldn’t give up his image rights for the upcoming UFC game. That issue aside, UFC Undisputed 2009 actually looks like a pretty good game.

I had UFC Throwdown for the GameCube years ago. It was ok but far from perfect. The new game looks a lot better. Hopefully the game will play as good as it looks.

It’s being developed by Yukes and THQ, the companies behind the WWE games the last several years, so it’s probably going to have the same kind of feel to it as the WWE games.

Unfortunately, it won’t be released until next May. Oh well

I love you Play! Delivering one of the most anticipated games of the year 2 days before the official release date.

I’m a big Call of Duty fan so it’s going to be hard to get any work done over the next few days.

I went to see the new Jame Bond film last Thursday. I really enjoyed Daniel Craigs first Bond film Casino Royale but compared to the first one, the new one comes up a little short.

It was still enjoyable and it did have one thing Casino Royale didn’t have, namely Olga Kurylenko. I recognised her during the middle of the film as the lead female in Hitman.

Hitman was a film adaptation of the video game which was made last year with Timothy Olyphant as the lead and Dougray Scott as lead support. The film was given average to poor reviews but I really enjoyed it. I cannot understand the criticism that the acting was wooden but that was the way the character was in the game too. Again, I recommend watching it if only to see the gorgeous Olga Kurylenko.

Some other films I’ve watched recently :

• Tropic Thunder – Really funny. If you’re a Ben Stiller fan and enjoyed Dodgeball and Zoolander, you will enjoy this. Robert Downey Jr is great too as the method actor who gets surgery to make himself look African-American.
• Step Brothers – A bit predictable but has some hilarious parts and was much better than Will Ferrels last effort Semi-Pro.
• Red Belt – A film about jujitsu. Starts off well then steers towards the mondane. If you enjoy the UFC or are interesting in grappling you may enjoy watching it as it does have it’s moments.
• Street Kings – A CIA drugs thriller starring Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker and Hugh Laurie. It was directed by the same guy who wrote Training Day which you will probably realise it when you watch it. A good film though and worth watching.

Talking about Training Day, if you have seen the film you’ll enjoy this hilarious impression of Denzel Washington.

Apart than Entourage, I don’t really watch much TV. Though I do watch a lot of films and sometimes put them on in the background when I’m working so I may do some more movie roundups in the future
