Transformers: Dark of the Moon

The fact that the single biggest news item regarding this third instalment in the Transformers films related to Megan Fox being replaced by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as the female lead made me a touch skeptical about the film. However, I enjoyed the first two movies for their total suspension of reality and and I have to say I enjoyed this one too for the same reason. Sure there were moments that grated like Shia LaBeouf, or his character at least, and the fact that McDreamy was cast as the bad guy (boo), and I nearly fell asleep in the middle of it (no comment on the quality of the action in the movie or anything – I was just a bit tired! and the movie was waaaaaay long) but overall I can’t help but adore the Transformers themselves (they are so cute) and of course the hot Josh Duhamel in his fatigues. Ah.

I could go into what the story-line is but I’m not sure there’s a point. Check your mind at the door and enter all those who just want to see loads of things blown up. For me it was just what the doctor ordered after a brain-draining last two months …

Dave Leaving Do and Pride

Dave Chan departs the UK shores tomorrow for the land down under so, in tradition, he had some leaving drinks. I think it was a bold move to have leaving drinks the night before a flight that would effectively last 24 hours … a very bold move indeed! Dave’s drinks were at Thirst – one of the Chinese Crew’s favourite venues for cocktails … specifically Pina Coladas. And I could see why – those pina coladas were very potent! Ironically I don’t have many photos of the main man Dave!

Thirst actually ended up being a perfect venue to choose as we were right in the heart of Soho and right in the middle of Pride celebrations! It was a fantastic atmosphere out on the street and a more perfect evening you couldn’t ask for. Everyone was in a fantastic movie – everyone was dancing with everyone, everyone was snogging everyone and everyone was feeling up everyone (okay, that might have just been me under the influence of alcohol … 😉 )

This guy was just nuts, but funny!

Fabulous night people!
