It’s Competition Time!

Tuesday, May 16th, 2006

I had great fun in the pub last night, with 3 great mates and my new swanky, rather sexy camera!

I ended up just taking photo after photo, after photo; like you do when you get a new camera. This may have seemed a bit pointless at the time, but there are a few classics which need captions. This not being one of my strong points (along with grammer) we at hayleycornwell.com have decided to put them to you.

So, here’s your first… have fun!

 

Brokeback Mountain - A Review

Friday, May 12th, 2006

So, I was sitting down the pub with a mate of mine last night and these are his exact words regarding Brokeback Mountain

“When I was a kid, I watched ‘The Karate Kid’ and from then on wanted to do Karate…
Then, when I was older, I watched ‘Goodfellas’ and from then on wanted to be a gangster…
But the other night, I watched ‘Brokeback Mountain’ and well what can I say, I didn’t want to be gay”

Those were his exact words!

Fighting for the Girls!

Thursday, May 11th, 2006

As much as I love watching the old action movies (if only for the likes of Tom Cruise being easy on the eye) it’s the chick flicks which i really love!

So here are Hayley’s top 5 Chick flicks…

  1. How to lose a guy in 10 days
  2. Dirty Dancing
  3. 10 things I hate about you
  4. Moulin Rouge
  5. Elizabethtown

The essential ingredients for any Chick flick are…

  • A leading lady who although is stunning (which you immediately hate her for) you can imagine her being your best friend and therefore you really want to see her fall madly and deeply in love.
  • A leading man that you want to be with for the rest of your life - whether you find him attractive or not.
  • One scene/moment in the film where your heart pounds so much as their eyes meet and you go all smushy, later on you imagine yourself being in that scene - at that moment if the door bell rings you know whoever is there better have a good excuse or be the leading man you are watching at that moment in time!
  • Some classic lines that you can repeat for years with your mates.
  • An awesome sound track that you can dance around your room to singing into your hairbrush and pouting in the mirror too. (I would like to point out that I’ve never done that)

Ray - sorry that The Prince and Me isn’t on the list, just didn’t quite squeeze into the top 5!

Sequels

Wednesday, May 10th, 2006

So, yesterday me and the Pinder went to see Mission Impossible III and it was really good!

No mentions of Scientology or anything! (Only kidding Tom - don’t sue!)

Back to the review, it was very entertaining and kept you guessing, Simon Pegg was his usual comedic genuis self and Ving Rhames was as cool as ever.

The best thing about the movie in my opinion had to be Philip Seymour Hoffman as the bad guy…he must have been good cos I hated him!

My only critiscm would be that there wasn’t enough playing of the Mission Impossible theme tune for John to dance along to!

But anyway, as Mission Impossible III is a sequel I thought it was an oppurtunity not to be missed and a perfect chance to do a top five sequels!

Now the sequels have to be as good or better than the original.

So here goes…

  1. The Empire Strikes Back
  2. The Godfather Part II
  3. Terminator 2: Judgement Day
  4. X-Men 2
  5. Superman 2

If you don’t agree then too bad, in the words of John Cusack in High Fidelity “It can’t be bull$#!t to state a preference”

But if you do disagree then feel free to do your own top five!

First sign of madness

Monday, May 8th, 2006

The first sign of madness is Sven-Goran Eriksson picking Theo Walcott for the England World Cup squad ahead of Jermain Defoe and Darren Bent

So, here are your options Sven…

Theo Walcott

  • 17 years old
  • 12 million pounds signing for Arsenal from Southampton
  • Never played a Premiership game
  • Never played for England before

Jermain Defoe

  • 23 years old
  • 7 million pounds signing for Tottenham from West Ham
  • 9 goals in the Premiership this season
  • 16 England Caps, 1 goal

 Darren Bent

  • 22 years old
  • 2.7 million pounds signing for Charlton from Ipswich
  • 18 goals in the Premiership this season
  • Highest English goalscorer in Premiership this season
  • 1 England Cap, No goals as yet

So why oh why would Sven pick Theo Walcott ahead of Bent and Defoe!

Don’t even get me started on Owen Hargreaves getting picked!

He really has lost it!

Happy Birthday!

Monday, May 8th, 2006

I would like to take this oppurtunity to wish Andy Williamson, who is my best friend in the entire world a very Happy 21st Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATE!!!!!

Hitch

Monday, May 8th, 2006

So, after church yesterday, I was a bit bored before the Arsenal game came on so I decided to sit and watch Hitch…

Hitch is a wicked movie but I did remember one thing about Will Smith movies that the fine people at somethingawful.com have so perfectly captured…

If he’s right…we’re screwed!

Friday, May 5th, 2006

Benny Hinn the famous tele-evangelist said this in November, 1990.

Remember that I said 1990!

He said…

“We may have two years before the rapture. Can I be blunt with you? I don’t know if we have two years left. I’m going to prove to you from the Word tonight, that we have less than two years, unless the Lord changes his mind.”

Yes, he said this in 1990! Yes, almost SIXTEEN years ago!

Now, I’m sure the Bible says something about false prophets and if I remember rightly it’s not good!

O what a bizarre week…

Thursday, May 4th, 2006

Some things which I never expected I would claim to have done…

Spray paint 12 barbie’s gold.

Spray 12 barbie’s faces with hair spray.

Got thrown out of Makro.

Brought 12 tins of baked beans, 12 tins of tinned tomatoes, 3 tins of kidney beans and 10 sachets of angel delight in one go. (among with many other things!)

Iron.

Not only iron, but iron 25 transfers on to 25 t-shirts so that they now all say Barbie goes to Africa.

Run round “Toys R Us” complaining loudly about how things have changed since I was a child and having a lightseber fight.

And there will probably be more added in time…
