Time Passes…Things Happen
It’s one of those “blogging about not blogging” posts today, sorry about that. It’s probably seen as “meta” or some such nonsense, but I like to try and keep posts like this to a minimum.
The truth is, I haven’t really got anything to write about at the moment. Or rather, nothing particularly that I would write on here.
Since the business blog launched a couple of weeks ago I have written a few posts on there, and have what could be a lengthy one in my mind right now. There may be some form of crossover between the two sites as well. Even though all of the IT related stuff goes on there, the influx of Apple kit into the house could be of interest to folks on here.
But here is a quick info-dump of a few things to appease the blogging Gods:
Watchmen is incredible on Blu-ray. Buy the US import though, as the UK version is the theatrical version ONLY of the movie. The US release is the full Director’s Cut with 24 minutes of extra footage. Or hold off as Warner Brothers gouge even more cash with an “ULTIMATE!!!1111!!!!1″ version coming in December. They may as well have included a flyer reading “Bend over and brace yourselves” in the box.
Also on a Blu-ray tip, the first season of Joss Whedon’s sublimely superb Dollhouse is now available on DVD and Blu-ray in the US. For once all of the BD discs are region free, so you can import the set and play it on any UK player. I received mine yesterday from Movietyme (at a rather wallet troubling £40), the picture quality is gorgeous. A very noticable step up from the HD transmissions, and comes complete with a very punchy DTS HD Master Audio soundtrack. I have only watched the first episode so far, but remember this set includes the unaired Epitaph One, as well as the original pilot Whedon shot and Fox rejected. Good job too, as while the original is very entertaining, it lacks the pacing of the finished article.
I shall never leave the sofa, having just bought the complete five season box set of Angel. We reached the end of season 3 of Buffy a week ago, which is where Angel clears off to LA (and fortunately says farewell to all the whiney, emo moodiness) and his show starts. It’s a darker, more “blokey” series that we are enjoying watching in parallel with Buffy season 4. aka Buffy Goes To College (and needs a damn good meal).
That’s about it for now. Oh except the Ghostbusters videogame on PS3 isn’t very good, IMHO. I was bored after halfway through the first level. “Bustin makes me feel good”. Not in this game it doesn’t.

I’ve found that Twitter has all but killed my blog. I guess I don’t have much to say other then day to day things . . . how boring am I ? Wow.
Twitter has done the same for me actually.
