  1. What ever happened to SuperAlly and The One?
  2. All I saw was the movie poster and that swayed me, definitely tempted So it's looking like Sucker Punch or Unknown.
  3. Going to the cinema on Saturday and have a choice between Battle: Los Angeles, Sucker Punch, Unknown or The Eagle. Has anyone seen any of these films and would recommend it? They all look decent in their own way.
  4. Anchorman - 6/10 Quite funny but is honestly in my opinion the most overrated film I have ever watched. I can't understand why everyone makes such a big deal about it.
  5. The only slightly redeeming feature for me was the Daft Punk cameo and soundtrack. The rest was as you say, 'fucking awful.'
  6. White Lines (Don't Do It) - Grandmaster Flash Higher baby, get higher baby, get higher baby And don't ever come down (freebase!)
  7. Standing In The Way of Control - The Gossip (Soulwax Nite Version)
  8. Got a presentation to give tomorrow which I've prepared for and I know plenty about the topic I'm presenting on but I'm still certain I'll screw it up somehow as I always panic giving a talk to a group of people.
  9. I've always had a Young Scot accepted in pubs and shops. The only places that don't take it are clubs from my own experience.
  10. I've managed to get my laptop connected to the television with a HDMI cable, however, when watching videos the signal cuts out every few minutes then comes back on. It's only for a couple of second,however, it's very off putting. Any suggestions as to how I fix this? Thanks.
  11. My laptop has become infected with a virus that blocks all of my programs and I can't use Task Manager or System Restore. Is there any way to fix this without losing all my data? Some of it I really can't lose.
  12. Right cheers, I was wondering whether it was possible to do a straight swap or if it involves the same process required when you're applying from scratch, I would imagine the latter.
  13. Does anyone know easy it is to transfer university or apply to a good one this late? I've finally decided I'm sick of Dundee. I really hate the city and want to move.
  14. Tonight is going to be fantastic. Hope they break out You Don't Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison.
  15. trust me, it's not. It's the only crowd I've been in where folk were genuinely fainting regularly every time a roadie came out onstage. There will be a few over 18's but the vast majority will be under 16 girls still living in 2006 with their parents
  16. What a gig that was The Vaccines started things off well with Wreckin' Bar and some other choices from their upcoming debut album whilst Everything Everything kept the momentum flowing with a solid set, the highlight being recent single Photoshop Handsome. It was Magnetic Man, however, that really kicked things off. A lot of people around me were unsure whether they would live up to expectation but they smashed it. With the help of an mc to whip the crowd into a frenzy, Benga, Skream and Artwork delivered a 50 minute set packed with hits from their debut album such as The Bug, Fire and the two singles I Need Air and Perfect Stranger which had the whole crowd shouting along. Crystal Castles were delayed by 15 minutes and it looked doubtful when a man came out and read a pre prepared statement from the band stating that Alice Glass had broken (I think) her ankle and was ordered to cancel the tour. However, she had apparently told the doctor to 'f**k himself' and came out onstage on crutches and proceeded to spend the next hour jumping around the stage whilst the crowd followed suit, creating a brilliant atmosphere. Whilst they might not be the best sounding band live, Crystal Castles know how to put on a frenetic show. Magnetic Man and Crystal Castles should tour together more often!
  17. Cause of that god awful new Skins episode I have that terrible Bodies song by Drowning Pool stuck in my head on repeat.
  18. NME Awards Tour this Thursday with Crystal Castles, Magnetic Man, Everything Everything and The Vaccines so it should be decent.
  19. Funeral for my uncle today who passed away on Saturday from cancer. I've never been to a funeral before and hopefully not for a long time yet, was a sad day.
  20. I think Hobbes was basically correct in what he was saying.
  21. Anyone from Dundee recommend a good Indian or Chinese takeaway near Dundee University? Thanks.
  22. When you give up and go to play FIFA with your flatmates then it turns out MOTD2 is on straight after What we get I guess for not checking beforehand
  23. If that's £109 then it's an excellent offer.
  24. Tron Legacy - 5/10 Had heard it was a disappointment so didn't have high expectations. Although it wasn't exactly bad, it was just boring, which for what was happening, shouldn't have been. Also some of it just seemed a little too cheesy at times. That said, the sequence where Daft Punk made their cameo was excellent!
