Tics and assorted stuff
So I met up with Cavada-girl last night. We headed to see Wedding Crashers which I enjoyed a hell of a lot more than I thought I would. I’ve always liked Vince Vaughn, but now I adore him 
We also got a chance to chat a little, she’s busy organising her life for a year in Canada, so making with the saving of money.
Today we had some fantabulus weather, so I wandered about town for a while. Picked up the new HP book, but haven’t started reading it yet for two reasons. First off, I’m in the middle of a Mary Gentle book and second of all I had a very annoying headache. Annoying for two reasons. One - the headache part. And two, for some reason it kept making a muscle on the bridge of my nose flicker (see there was a purpose behind the tic in the title. Made you wonder did it?)
Anyways, headache and tic all gone now (yeah for pain murdering tablets), so I can waste my time surfing on webland without wondering will it make the drill in the head worse.

Wedding Crashers
Dir: David Dobkin
Writ: Steve Faber & Bob Fisher
- Owen Wilson …. John Beckwith
- Vince Vaughn …. Jeremy Klein
- Rachel McAdams …. Claire Cleary
- Isla Fisher …. Gloria Cleary (yes, Shannon from Home & Away)
- Christopher Walken …. Treas.Sec. Wm.Cleary
I was expected some mindless entertainment, with a few laughs. Instead I got mindless entertainment, plenty of insanity and loads of laughs.
The basic plot is fairly simple: two guys use the wedding season to attend (uninvited) various weddings and sleep with as many women as possible. Wilson(John) and Vaughn(Jeremy) play the two wedding crashers and long time friends. But at their last wedding of this particular season Jeremy is forced into something resembling a relationship when John falls for Claire Cleary.
John and Claire are the main attempt at a couple, but I thought that Jeremy and Gloria were much more entertaining. Gloria is a total nutjob, and Jeremy isn’t quite all there either.
There really isn’t all that much to say about this film. It doesn’t want to make you think, just to laugh and it really works in that department. I’d highly recommend this for an evening’s entertainment. I may even buy it once it comes out on dvd. The story isn’t original, the plot often doesn’t make sense, but who cares. All the cast play off each other wonderfully, although I thought that Vaughn stole the show.
Can I just add that I adore Vince Vaughn
