An Exercise Bike, Nic Cage, Sean Connery and Lots Of Explosions
Well, that’s the first hour long stint on the exercise bike done, and it really wasn’t too bad. Was watching The Rock to let the time fly by – a classic film, although much more “Michael Bay”-esque than I remembered.
What’s that? That electric tram’s going to hit that parked car? MASSIVE EXPLOSION! TRAM FLIES IN THE SKY! TRAM CONDUCTOR (who happens to be black but you’ll never guess from this next not-at-all stereotypical line) SHOUTS “DAMN! YOU MUTHA F***AS JUST RUINED MY DAY!”.
The only thing missing is Megan Fox draping her over a bike. Instead, we get Nicholas Cage draping himself over a rocket. As much as I’d like to say otherwise, it’s not quite the same. Fortunately, it’s massively less objectifying and it’s good to see Michael Bay has come a long way sinc… oh, shit, The Rock was made years before Transformers.
Oh dear. Still, at least it didn’t suck as much as Pearl Harbour (which sucked justalittlebitmore than I… miss… you…)
And I’ve just burned lots of calories. Tonight = Win.
Toodles,
Pat
