Toddled on to see this much awaited film courtesy of www.movies.ie (i fully reccomend you get your butt over there and register for all the movie goodness they have to offer!). I hope it just isn’t my warped sense of humour but i firmly believe if you are not hurting from laughter from the opening scenes in this film there really is something wrong with you!

The film is about a handful of actors (and their egos) are thrown into a battlefield / action film and they believe it’s purely acting but when people start blowing up and actors are getting ransomed the comedy of this film really turns up a notch.

The characters played by Downey Jr. and Tom Cruise make this film for me.

Ah dont read the script dammit, script reads me. .

Not gonna bother commenting on the whole use of the ‘R’ bomb in the particular scene. Obviously there are people who have their own individual reasons for not wanting to see the film, and that’s fine. To me the film surpassed all of what ended up being a small enough portion of the film.

I would reckon this film is one to watch in the cinema. I’ve never been in a screening where so many people laughed so hard and together at what was happening on screen.

On Vodafone pay as you go?

Recently see all your credit getting chewed up unexplainably in the past week?

Sign up for the new Free Talk and Text Vodafone to Vodafone for Life offer?

Tick all these boxes? I know i did. And only when i went to send a text message yesterday and it wouldn’t send due to lack of fundage did i wonder where all my credit went. So even then without the proper funds i had to top up again online to ring the help desk to find out.

What i got was a very helpful woman explain to me that there was nothing out of ordinary with the credit , but alas i had signed up for the Free Talk and Texts for life which ment that i had opted out of the Free Texts for life offer. So every text i had sent since Tuesday had been charged at 13c a pop PLUS my text bundle of 100+ text messages were kaput.

“How many texts have i sent since Tuesday?”

“Well I’m looking at the screen here and there are 50 texts on this page and there are nine pages…”

“450 texts in 4 days? With my thumbs? Lets say it was 400 and a few phone calls! CRAZY!”

“You must be very popular..”

she utters as she knows this just isn’t swimming well with me and just then with out me being able to protest any further comes the ultimate bait to STFU.

“Mr Ben i can certainly add on 20 euro of complimentary credit to cover the mishap..”

Not wishing to turn down such a nice offer and to be honest i figured i was down that amount anyway i agreed and set along my way. So i tell Mrs Ben about this and she rings up but chickens out due to the fact that as soon as you ring the vodafone number it tells you about this opting out clause etc.

About an hour later my brother rings me with the same problem, they’ve chewed 52 euro on him since Wednesday only thing is that he shouldn’t have been charged 13c a message as he had opted in and then i had topped him up online within hours. He rings the help line, get’s a friendly customer care rep who tells him

“We had a problem with a lot of pay as you go accounts, let me look into your one…” *hold music*

Comes back on the phone very defensive and says something along the lines of a refund due in the tune of 33.49 euro and apologises and when my brother asks about the error, he can say no more only that he will be refunded the money which is less than what his account is down by! In fact the customer care rep tells him he has rung a couple of 01 numbers and that’s the reason why the other money won’t be refunded! (01 being Dublin landline!)

I’ve a feeling a lot more people have been diddled out of credit who have either opted in for the new Free Talk and Text for Life package OR some error on Vodafone’s side has stripped people of a lot of prepaid credit. Check now and let your friends know! Becuase it wouldn’t be the first time this happened. . .

I will keep this brief, no doubt you’ve heard the reviews from people who are much better with words than i would ever be. But what i will say is this.

I can only compare this film to the first time i actually used Cillit Bang. I had seen the Adverts, had seen what it could do but didn’t believe it. Then I used it and was shocked, nay amazed. As blown away as much as a cleaning product will blow away a twenty something young male, this film blew me away and will blow you A-WAY.

You need to see this film. In a cinema. Today.

Ps. It’s all about the Joker

I had always toyed with the idea of getting a tattoo along the way but the whole permanent thing just did never sit well with me. I don’t wanna be sitting there aged 60 with a ed norton style swastika that was on my chest swinging around my ankles but another reason is I would be completely afraid of this shit happening. Gettin some bone head idiot completely miss spelling what i wanted would be another primary reason i would give it a pass. I’ve seen too many of those ‘no no its the chinese symbol for free spirit’ when clearly it more like resembles egg fried rice down the local curry shop!

I wonder can you actually sue someone if they did this to you? I mean in all fairness you’d be there when it happened so you’d be as much of a bone head as them.

For a few more. .

We all know one or two of these people, people who have totally no idea about booze but throw around these pretentious descriptions of ‘woody’ and ‘fruity’ like they were the love child of Oz Clarke and Jilly Goolden (minx).

When you speak, speak slowly, as though you’re coming to a conclusion. Then break out with it.

“I taste a hint of blackberry just at the finish.”

Either people will agree with you, or they won’t. If they agree with you, great! They don’t taste shit, either. You can now tell them you’re catching a splash of Strawberry Go-Gurt in the fourth and down, and they’ll just nod and stare. You have bolloxed a bunch of clueless snobs; take a bow!

If they don’t agree, then frown a little. They won’t ever say, “Bullshit! You fucker!” Instead, they’ll say, “Really? I don’t taste that….”

Legend.

The Ferret has 5 steps in total and will make you smile!

This weekend i will be mostly sipping on my budweiser and declaring how it eminates of tangy cheddar and really expunges the pallette
