David Cronenberg met with some opposition when he announced that he wanted to cast Jeff Goldblum in the lead role. The executive at Fox who was supervising the project felt that Goldblum was not a bankable star, and Chris Walas felt that his face would be difficult to work with for the make-up effects.Quote:

I've changed email address and decided to import any new mail from my old email addresses. Craploads of old emails appearing in the inbox I'd forgotten about years ago, some real blasts from the past!!!
It says that it's based on data gathered during Spring and Summer 2010. Granted, it's not like it's the only thing he was doing, but even the data gathering phase must have been quite a lot of work.Quote:

Scary! Thankfully it burned out just before the trees caught on fire. At least he has had some drama on his birthday!
Saw Back to the Future in the cinema earlier. Now all I can think of is that Eamon Zayed is going to gun down Doc Brown in a parking lot.
Rest easy. He'll miss. :p
Stupid nite. Lose to cork and car breaks down outside Abbeyleix. Still waiting to get home 2 hours later and gonna cost me big money probably to get it home and fixed.
Some craic in Italy tonight.
Saw that. Is that an automatic 0-3 to Serbia as Italy were hosts? Or to Italy as it was the Serbia fans who seem to have caused everything?
I'm genuinely surprised. Not that the Serbians caused trouble, but that the Italians didn't join in.
If it's given as 3-0 to Serbia, expect chaos at the rest of their away games!Quote:

The UEFA EURO 2012 qualifying match between Italy and Serbia in Genoa was abandoned due to crowd trouble.
Only six minutes of play were possible at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, the kick-off of which had been delayed by 35 minutes due to crowd disturbances. It was subsequently decided to abandon the match in order to ensure the safety and security of all parties involved due to the disturbances and flares thrown by the Serbian fans.
UEFA now awaits the receipt of the official UEFA delegate's match report before deciding whether to open a disciplinary case.

He was found hiding in the luggage section underneath the coach!

My God, but Sky News' coverage of the Chilean miners' rescue is utterly, nauseatingly over the top. "Next up is Jesus Soap. He's 34, married with four children and likes football and classical rock. He's been working with the company for ten years and had a bad back last year", all while a caption on top tells you we've (8 of 33 miners rescued".
Anyone associated with Sky News should be shot.
Very brave of him to hide..Quote:

I hope the little bit of news I heard today is true.... would make things even more interesting! :D
What is this news of which you speak?
Is it that the first task for the Chilean miners after their release is to visit Anfield - to advise Roy Hodgson on how to get out of a ****ing big hole before Christmas?
Ha you are very bold Mr A!!!
If the last 30 seconds of this is anything to go by....Quote:

On that, I got a text that yesterday was Maggie Thatcher's 85th birthday. Given her condition, she probably spent it staring at the telly, only to see celebrating miners and scouse football fans.Quote:

I was only commenting during the week how few jokes along those lines I'd heard.
My favourite miners joke so far:
Lets all dress up in Planet of the Apes costumes to greet the Chilean Miners!!
