After long discussions about the benefits of movies like the Goonies, and the Lost Boys, Ferris Bueller and basically anything with Corey Feldman in it and the effect they’d had on our impressionable teenage/child like minds; we decided that the next generation will suck, because movies for kids just aren’t what they used to be.I mean try making Top Gun again…you wouldn’t even dare! - Couch
Watching this dude use the words ‘cooked beautifully’ a coupla hundred times a minute as it’s the final of Masterchef - The Professionals.
Corey Feldman is back! Killing vampires and shaping surfboards as Edgar Frog in The Lost Boys (2) – The Tribe. Although it isn’t technically a sequel, but more of a “hey, let’s do the same story but with newer people and stunts and use Corey Feldman to simulate that cult classic vibe that the first Lost Boys was soaked in.” At least I’m pretty sure that’s how the conversation would have gone, when it was on the drawing board; that and releasing it straight to DVD! Buy the original and numero dos for a whole tenner from Amazon if you so wish – Couch
We know this will be thick with middle aged men on colour-coded fixed gear bikes doing amazing tricks like…cycling…. and erm wheelies, but in spite of that London’s Bicycle Film Festival, which kicks off next Thursday (the 25th), looks epic. The list of feature films and documentaries is far, far, far too long to do justice here, so instead watch this clip from one of the flicks we’d like to see, Les Ninjas Du Japon, and go to the festival site for times/listings.
This is going to be very hit or miss, but I’m confident in my newly formed updating abilities to assume it will be a good one. If you like Harry Potter you’ll be pleased to know it ain’t that long till another movie comes out. If you don’t like Harry Potter you might like these strange puppets of Potter and his pals getting blown up by a pipe bomb, but only after they have had time for a sing song! If you don’t like either and you’ve read this far… get on bah! - Couch
Tickets and exhibitor details can be got here We’ll be there, trying, trying not to get a spur of the moment smurf smoking crack chest piece or something equally as regrettable.
The fantastic American sit-com Arrested Development is soon to be feature length rumoured to be out in 2009 and directed by Ron Howard.
The end of the 3rd series saw Michael Bluth and George Michael Bluth sailing away in the yacht with a stowaway Pop Pop and Baby Buster in the ocean with a seal hot on his tail. Gob (the magician) is hitting on his newly discovered not-sister Lindsey, and Lucile being accosted by her adopted Vietnamese son for ruining his father’s frozen banana franchise and Cousin Maebe selling the rights to an Arrested Development movie to Ron Howard. Who knows what the movie will be like, but there are a lot of loose ends that need tying up. Will Arnett tells you what you need to do.
Unbelievably the terrible Dragon Force’s ‘Through The Fire and Flames’ has been voted the hardest song to play on Guitar Hero 3. So as a homage of sorts to that snippet of information, we found this picture of a dude rocking so hard that his guitar probably shattered into a million tiny pieces that were absorbed by his body turning him into a sort of god, well amongst those who play Guitar Hero. He didn’t even notice when it happened he just kept sweating on his own in his bedroom…alone. Although he did stop when someone told him Dragon Force would be playing at his local Academy
Sometimes things have a weird way of coming together. On arrival to the office today our current young charge Mr. Couch (pictured left) showed us his latest masterstroke, tattooed slap bang on the inside of his lip. And after several hours of laughter, some pointing and lots of head shaking a quick Google search found out that this month just so happens to mark the anniversary of Jack Daniels birth. I’d love to say that our boy actually knew that, but he didn’t.
[Disclaimer: LIP TATTOOS, LIKE DRUGS ARE NOT BIG OR CLEVER, BUT THEY ARE FUNNY WHEN SOMEONE ELSE HAS ONE]
