Yes, it needs those exclamation marks. Because you can’t just say ‘monster trucks’, you have to announce it, with fist-on-table stomping action, “MONSTER TRUUUUCCKSS!!!”
I went with Jess to see the Rogers Centre turned into a big sand pit playground for jacked up trucks on ridiculously massive wheels. Its actually more organised than I expected, and a competition of sorts rather than just all out mayhem (not as red neck as I’d hoped). But its still pretty cool. First they have 1 on 1 races around the circuit, then a demonstration showdown where they just go nuts with jumps, car crushing and doughnuts!
Mid way they had some crazy motor cross action, doing huge trick jumps. And at the end, probably the most entertaining part, demolition derby! They started with about 30 cars, two lines facing back to back, and reversing into each other, then just causing as much damage as they could till there was only one man standing. Friggin’ hilarious!

Start of an Ice Sculpting competition in London, next to the Natural History Museum and the ice skating rink in South Kensington. 5 teams from various countries started on Friday with huge blocks of ice, using chainsaws and chisels to turn them into art!
They were doing free lessons over the weekend but not on the Friday so I missed out. And they weren’t going to let us use the chainsaws anyways.
They finally released the trailer for The International! This Drama / Thriller directed by Tom Tykwer (Perfume, Run Lola Run) stars Clive Owen and Naomi Watts and will be released in February 2009.
Its my first major film credit, and I spent a good 4 months or more working on it. There’s only a small amount of my work in this trailer so you’ll have to go and see it!
China Town, and seemingly the rest of central London, was locked down & dressed up for a huge Chinese New Year Festival!
Thousands of people showed up for food, music, fireworks, dance, and of course my favorite, Kung Fu!

Well the Giants just won the Superbowl with 30seconds to spare, but the real highlight of any Superbowl, as we all know, is the commercials!
Each year these are the most expensive commercials on Air, that is what they pay for the 30second spot, not the prouction costs! Superbowl is only second to the final of MASH in record viewers, hence the expensive commercial slots
Unfortunately for some, all the money went into buying the spot, with none left to produce a decent commercial to put in it. But theres always some good ones, here is my top 10! Vote below for your fave, and you can check all the rest out on Myspace.
I went to see a midnight session of Cloverfield last night, and I guess it was as I expected. It’s campaign was basically viral marketing, and had no title, simply the date 01-18-08. J.J Abrahams was behind Alias (great) and LOST (couldn’t get into it). I had a feeling this movie was going to have too much of that LOST feel to it. Anyways, It’s a little hard to write about without spoiling things, but I’ll give it a go. Continue Reading…
