Shrek 2

Went to see Shrek 2 yesterday. Pretty good - not as funny or as groundbreaking as the first, but still worth the money. No, probably not worth the money, as it costs so bloody much to go to the cinema these days. I remember going to the Odeon in Swansea for only £1.95 in my student days. (Bloody uncomfortable though, especially if you were in the second screen, where the seats all seemed to be at an angle to the screen...)

£13 for two tickets! I ask you! Still, I'll be doing it again in a couple of weeks, when Spider-Man 2 comes out. Not sure about Thunderbirds, though. The 'birds themselves look bloody good (even though TB2 has got a lardy arse), and I'm not sure about a flying FAB1 that isn't even a Rolls-Royce, but why did they have to get children involved? I know Alan Tracy was annoying in the original series, but did they have to make him an annoying child?

And what's Private Hudson doing in charge of International Rescue? "That's it man, game over. It's game over! What the fuck are we going to do now? Launch Thunderbird fucking One?!?"
