The Da Vinci Code…on the big screen  0

Posted on May 25th, 2005, early in the evening. About General, Random Stuff.

Not sure how long this has been news but I saw the trailer for The Da Vinci Code film due out next summer (as in 2006). Apparently it has Tom Hanks in it along with other stars but would it make a good film? I’d always thought that books should stay as books as they’re usually crap as film. Ruins the immagination and it’s the directors immagination the film’s based around usually. It’s like the Harry Potter films. I go and see them but I have yet to come out feeling that it was a good representation of the books. Usually there’s massive chunks missing, the bits are wrong or not what’s in the book or just plan crap. So I’ll probably go see this but I suppose I’m very sceptical of this too.

Ok been sent this from Matt but what the hell, may as well do it:

Total volume of music files on my computer
7.50GB

The last CD I bought was
Athlete’s new album “Tourist” as a birthday present but the last album I bought for myself was off the iTunes Store which was ‘A’s “Rush Song” EP. Don’t really buy albums very often.

Song playing right now
Green Day - “J.A.R. (Jason Andrew Relva)” from their International Superhits album

Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me
I usually just put iTunes on random but here goes:

  • Usher - “Burn”
  • Green Day - “Wake Me Up When September Ends”
  • Coldplay - “Scientist”
  • The Killers - “Mr. Brightside”
  • 2Pac Ft. Elton John - “Gospel Ghetto”

    • Album #16: Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge  1

    Ok this is bloody amazing! Been non-stop listening to this for like a week and everytime it just gets better and better. I guess most people will have heard the “I’m Not Okay (I Promise)” song. But no way is that the best on the album. I’m loving “Helena” which is on the music channels at the mo but “To The End”, “Give ‘Em Hell, Kid” and “You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison” (quite possibly one of the longest song titles ever there!) are just as sweet. You should definitely buy/borrow/whatever this album cos, seriously, it’s awesome!

    Gigs galore  1

    Woo! Can’t wait! ‘A’ in 2 weeks today - bought their new EP at the weekend off the iTunes store. Some pretty good stuff. Back to their old rock stuff as apposed to their poppy stuff from the Hi-Fi Serious album which let them down I think.

    Then, to be confirmed, Reel Big Fish on the 1st of June! Even though it says on their website, The Wedge won’t confirm it. Strange people. Just heard the whole “Cheer Up” and I’m definitely impressed as I hadn’t actually heard it all the way through before. Apparantly they’re only doing Portsmouth and Brighton (even though it says Manchester, London and Birmingham on another site :S)

    Edit: So seems like The Wedge did confirm RBF after all. Thank god. Only £10! So that makes it 5 hours work for 2 amazing bands. Not bad in my books!

    Album #15: Decadence  0

    Posted on May 2nd, 2005, late in the morning. About Music, Recommended Albums.

    So this is my latest album that I’ve bought. Really loved “Beating Heart Baby” and couldn’t get enough of it so decided to buy their album. I still think that it’s my favourite song (29 plays since I’ve bought the album says iTunes) however “The Razor” is pretty good too. All the songs are different from the rest which in my opinion is a good thing. But if you don’t want a variety then maybe this album’s not your cup of tea… go buy Westlife’s

    Yeah ok so some of you think it’s boring - but I just have to say yesterday’s match was pretty amazing. I was at work when it was being played and everytime I went out back I could hear a new score (our radio was too crap to hear who it was though). Much better than last week, have to say ;-) Anyway, should keep Saints going for a bit longer lol.
