Wall-E

We saw it last night. It is FABULOUS! It is a simple story, beautifully told and fantastically animated, it has a good message too. Wall-E is just the cutest, funniest thing, they manage to make him amazingly expressive without words. It really is one of the best films I have seen in a very long time.

Entertainment

Until ‘Lost’ is back (I misssss you my sweet Lost) Heroes, ‘The Office: An American Workplace’ and ‘Mock the Week’ are keeping me going. Mock the Week was on TV last night. Woo-hoo! I think Ross posted this clip from last week’s show on his tumblr blog the other day, but it is really, really funny, so I’m posting it here too. It’s Russell Howard summing up the papers perfectly It’s funny because its true. 

All of the regular comedians from the show are brilliant. We went to see Frankie Boyle at the Hackney Empire last month where they were filming for his new dvd. He was totally hilarious (I was so so so glad we weren’t sitting in the first few rows though because he does like a bit of ‘audience participation’ and I would have been so embarrassed). He does tend to repeat the jokes from the TV show on his live show, or maybe its the other way ’round, but either way he’s still incredibly funny. 

Also, we went to see Hancock this week. I really loved it. I pretty much love all Will Smith films. I think he is hilarious and I do like a film with a happy ending. We want to see Wall-E and The Dark Knight next. Why are films like buses, for months nothing good comes out, then they all come along at once.
