Old post unpublished from May:

Hello everybody.



I realise it has been ages since blog postage on my behalf, so here is a nice brief one to keep the habit up.



"The Host" is a South Korean monster movie. It is also, interestingly, remarkably good, and somewhat famous. If you have not watched it, i thoroughly suggest you do. It has evil scientists in it, comedy and a big monster that eats people. I personally find that combination very hard not to like, and while it sounds rather silly it manages to satirise the genre that it simultaneously masters. Srsly, check it out.



Separate/related note: There is nothing more infuriating than an erratic DVD player. SHAME on you SONY.



Who remembers nerds? The sweets? Well, I was amazed to find out that they still sell them here in New Zealand. Amazing/delicious. They were probably taken off the shelves back home because they were dangerous or something, but the kiwis don't seem too fussed. Then again, our car's handbrake does not work and it passed its warrant of fitness, so it would seem the nation is more relaxed about things more significant than sweets.

Anywhoo, cheerie-bye.
