It was Orange Wednesday last night and Silent Hillwatched. It was a long time since we played the game so remembering any of the plot was going to be tricky. Quite surprised to see Sean Bean as the husband trying to do a Yankee accent but it came out all 'ee by gum'. With the scene set for the reason to visit Silent Hill, the good stuff came along with the town looking satisfactorily familiar to the game and monsters looking creepy. Bit toned down though with the 15 certificate but the big pyramid-head guy and demon nurses twitching like the dancers from Kylie 'Can't get you out of my head' looked good. Towards the end though I started thinking where this was all going and most of the plot tension had disappeared making the conclusion a bit flat. I remember completing the game then getting the wrong ending and couldn't be arsed trying again. Bit like the film really, I enjoyed the creepy bits and style but like unwrapping a large present it turned out to be socks.
With news that Facebook is offering embedded posts I thought I'd experiment with both Facebook and Twitter. Here's an example of a Twitter embedded post: This is amazing.

GingerDJRoblog has been lynched by the Six TV mafia. Back in August (10th) I reported about the Solent Sci-fi TV programme we watched and its DIY presentation. This week I've been bombarded (well two of them) by the makers of the show with defensive swipes. From the recent bollox on digital lately I could be persuaded to view more of the Adventures of Stephen Brown . I'm also considering to ask for a walk on part for their next production. Picture above is from their Tubcon Invasion series - great costume and more exciting photos from their picture gallery . I've also found their YouTube videos . Talking of costume, I've learnt that the NYE party will have a mandatory dress-code of hat wearing. A little research has uncovered some websites for inspiration including Sabrina, the teenage witch's cat (or rather its stuffed relative) modelling some ideas. Just found a cute animation on YouTube called Kiwi!
