'Hancock' arriving.

Just used the PS3 to watch the second HD  trailer for 'Hancock' (which clocks in at over three minutes long) and have become convinced that I now don't need to see the movie as they appear to have supplied the plot and a great many of the good bits.  Cheers Columbia, much obliged.

Went to the Blackheath Kite Festival yesterday (Sat) to get some snaps after spotting it was on using the excellent Upcoming site.  Quite funny as the weather was changeable.  When the sun went in the wind built up and the kite fliers were in their element.  When the sun came out however the fliers were becalmed but everyone else was pleased.  Needless to say the weather swung one way then the other all afternoon.  Interesting couple of hours.  No pies were eaten.

Ads on TV are annoying but how much more annoying they are in a recession when they're by banks, petrol companies and car manufacturers.  One car ad has the matchless "A whisper is louder than a shout".  Er, it what sense?  In no sense at all matey, no sense at all....  And Halifax - always intensely annoying with their 'Look - it's our smug staff!' shtick - have now taken to ripping off Terry Gilliam.  Having buildings set sail was done in 'The Crimson Permanent Assurance' but what's a piece of plagiarism when you can't be arsed thinking of something original.  Grrr.
