Heh, indeed, I'm reading Charlie Brooker's latest book, and he says how he tried to avoid being seen by a 'celebrity' he'd been scathing about in his column, but the guy comes over and says 'hi Charlie', and He gets all embarrassed and explains how he didn't mean what he wrote, and then finds out the didn't know, and just wanted to say he'd enjoyed something else Charlie had done. *God please open the ground to swallow me time*
On the topic of Zombieland however, I was already sold by the trailer, but Moviebob sold me a carrycase and the extended warranty too. The icing on the cake was seeing a review in the Daily Mail when visiting my parents which slammed as an awful generic tedious zombie flick with no redeeming features, which is pretty much a guarantee that it will be huge fun.
Their reviewer is like a third rate Oscar judge, fawning over anything 'worthy' and any movie that shows a hint of being enjoyable or fun gets smug derision poured over it from a great height.
I should probably say I really enjoy Bob's reviews too here, as I seem to have slipped off topic just a little.
