Hattori Hanzo
This name will be familiar to those who have seen Kill Bill vol. 2. It turns out that the name Hattori Hanzo once belonged to a ninja who’s duty was to protect the emporer at the time.
And for those Lone Wolf and Cub fans out there, the story of Hattori Hanzo by Kazuo Koike & Goseki Kojima is begin published by Dark Horse Comics.

I finally got a camera. I took this picture yesterday morning before I went to work.
It tooke me ages to get as far as the trax. A walk that usually takes me 5 minutes took me fifteen.
I couldn’t see where the path was becuase every where looked the same.
When I did eventually get on the tram my coat was covered in ice.
Madness.

It turns out that League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is going to come out after all. Moore has been having trouble with DC recently and so LOEG 3 is going to be published by Top Shelf in 2007.
Awesomeness.
Disclaimer. I assure you officer I’ve only had a few ales.
So we went to the best club in the world tonight. I’m just back. Seriously. Awesome place. There were actual black guys rapping and loads of hot chicks. There was beer. Absolutely everything that you could want from a club.
This whole being irish trick is class. Honestly. “I’m Irish” works as a chat up line down here. Which is class. I’m a stud.
We didn’t steal anything this week. Random Shit here. Maybe we should have. Like a five.

Kurt Wimmer should not be allowed near a camera/pen & paper/actor ever again. I had high hopes of this movie being at least as good as Equilibrium. It’s not. No where near as good.
It is full of boring dialogue, crappy action sequences and some of the worst CG since Han shot first. There are about 5 minutes of good action sequences, which for a 1 and half hour movie equals a lot of boredom.
There was one thing that really got to me though. There is a scene were Violet is surrounded by enemies all holding guns to her head at point blank range and the camera moves to behind one of the attackers. Then we here the sound of a blade cutting through stuff and all the attackers fall over minus there heads. I understand that this is would be a tough thing to show at a fast enough speed, but later when she happens upon another room full of enemies and she says you are all going to die. So obviously the camera cut’s away to an empty room, the door opens violet walks in and everybody is lying on the floor in the room behind her.
I didn’t enjoy this movie. I thought I was enjoying it but I was actualy just enjoying the sprite I was drinking. If I didn’t like this movie then you sure as hell won’t.
