Nifty Fifty Challenge

Over the next 12 months I intend to tackle my 2012 to-do list.
I am confident at the moment I can have all of them covered and completed by 31/12/12 (providing the Mayans are full of shite).

I shall provide updates to this page in due course of the year ahead, however, I also intend to add to the list as it's not quite a 'Nifty Fifty' as yet.

Wish me luck...or if you have any suggestions, post them in the comments section please :)

50 tasks finally realised - movies and P&B

That's right! I have finally finalised my final list of fifty firm fun activities  for 2012 :)
alliteration was not on the list........

Aaaaanywho, so far I have managed to stay on couse with No.40 - "Watch at least one new movie per week" In fact, I managed not only one hollywood blockbuster....but TWO....but that's not all....both movies were not ONLY on the same night...they were also....CONSECUTIVE. What a rockstar....

So, the movies were..
In Time http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1637688/


I liked the idea of the movie and actually thoroughly enjoyed it. I had my reservations on how capable an actor Justin Timberlake is but he made the role his own & done what was required. Worthy of a watch and even a second viewing (note. something I very rarely do} a solid 7/10

Contagion http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1598778/


Now we're talking. A modern movie set around a worldwide epidemic! and the cast isn't too shabby either..
A film I was really looking forward to but felt it missed the mark. The story didn't feel gripping enough and characters seemed under developed. I think I might have enjoyed it more had it been centralised on a few characters rather than a "love actually" type mash. Overall....not bad..5/10



onto the matter of No. 50. "Reach 250dots on P&B". Just after posting my list to P&B I was met with a very unwelcome -1rep from a bad egg trying to spoil my triumphant journey to +250rep. Fortunately fellow Metalhead and also fellow Blogger Forehead rectified the injustice.
