in those two weeks i had some rather interesting media exposure.
Firstly i appeared on the kenyan "NTV" in a news report on the beauty of kena and lake Navasha. this is because of the presidential campaign for popularity and his policy if giving more money to the national parks
secondly on the 8 hour flight to and from kenya i watched many of the recent films and i would like to say a few words about each of them.
clover-field - an interesting film and i enjoyed the blair witch project style filming but the over half of the dialogue consisted of "ROB" or OH MY GOD" which gets rather infuriating after a while.
The hulk - this film i really enjoyed especially the special effects and the problems of being the the hulk made this film a compelling watch. this is a film that i believe would look awesome on blu-ray.
Iron man- again a good solid film, the elements of comedy were good and the fact that it didnt try to be gritty and real like the latest Batman really sold the film for me.
This is vegas- again another excellent film, the acting was great and there were some really good laughs it in
Get Smart- this film is on par with many ledgendary films such as anchorman and Dont Mess With the Zohan some of the scenes had me in fits of laughter, it actually brought tears to my eyes
finally i watched: Don't mess with the Zohan - this is now one of my favorite films but seriously not one to watch with the parents. there is a "moral" to the story but it is not rammed down your throat. if you are a fan on Adam Sandler films then this is possibly better that Happy Gilmore.

Wow! You have been busy! It was good to read about the films you enjoyed on the long flights to Kenay and back. I must order some more Blu-Ray films for the Media suite.
Tell me more about being interviewed: was there a full camera crew, or was it a video journalist using a small High Def camcorder and interviewing you at the same time? I used to do this and have written about it on my blog.
What questions were you asked? How did you respond? Did you feel you were being manipulated or encouraged to give a particular answer? I'm curious to know how impartial the reporter appeared to be. Also, how did it feel to be under the spotlight, as it were? Was it enjoyable, uncomfortable, or something else?
