Its really to cold to go out and do anything, so if you want to listen to some good new music, let me suggest Cosmo Jarvis

I used to work in a cinema, so as much as i like going to see a good film, i don't go as much as id like as it had become a bit of a bus mans holiday, luckily i haven't worked in one for a good few years now, and may try to get there a bit more, especially as there appears to be some excellent films coming out in the next few weeks.

Yes Man with Jim Carrey i am keen to see, though the fact the Jim Carrey is in it, is causing some doubt, come to think of it maybee im being a bit harsh as both The Truman Show and Man on the Moon are excellent, i read the Danny Wallace book its based on just after it had come out and am interested to see how it comes across as a film, from what i understand it only follows the book loosely, so i have a feeling it may lose some of its britishness.

Two films i will definitley be going to see, are Slumdog Millionaire and Frost/Nixon, Slumdog Millionaire is directed by Danny Boyle, most famous for Trainspotting and 28 days later, this film looks like it will be more in the style of Millions an excellent film not seen by many, so try and catch it if you can.

Frost/Nixon is based on the play and stars Micheal Sheen, a man very much in demand at the moment as Frost. Sheen however is not the new doctor, though that has gone to Matt Smith,

A good TV show can be as good as any film if you ask me, and luckily for me, my Channel 4 doesn't really work which means i don't have to endure, Verne Troyer and Coolio on Celebrity Big Brother, but it appears that will not be gracing the newspapers too much over the next few days, as the BBC have decided to announce the next Doctor Who at 5.30 Tomorrow, Paterson Joesph has been favourite for the last few weeks, but Matt Smith an relatively unknown actor has shot up as the favourite in the last few hours, but could this all be a curve ball.



I did this evening catch up with new years day's Jonathon Creek which was as good as the series used to be, and if you have not seen any of this series ever and are a fan of any sort of crime solving show this is worth checking out.

I used to blog a long time ago, and 2009 seemed like a good time to start again, so lets go and see what happens.

I watched the first part of The Pixar Story today and found it incredibly interesting, if you have any interest in film especially animation, its worth a viewing.

here is the teaser trailer for there most recent project Up
