I was out documenting the local centre for mass consumerism and this happened.
anyone else counting down the til the launch of the new film? or is it just me?
spam? so cynical. Jeez.
I was just out taking pics around the shopping area across from my marina in Portsmouth harbour (UK) and saw a load of star wars characters. I took a pic of the guy who was collecting charity money to help local kids, which was in return for a load of people having their pics taken with the characters.
I spoke to the charity guy who was collecting and just wanted to find out about the charity. As I was chatting, and took a pic of his various badges, the storm trooper leaned into the shot.
It's got nothing to do with spam, because there was no monty python going on.
spam is when you're trying to surreptitiously flog something or gain something.
I just thought it was fun. especially as I'm a bit of a star wars fan.
sorry. my bad.
No bad.
I think the new Star Wars movie will be fantastic. Went to see Spectre last week. Awesome non stop action.

It sounded like you were making a film. You did say you were 'documenting' and then excited about the new film.
That sounds like you're flogging a new doco you're making.
Now I get it - so my bad.

nah, I'm doing a photo-doco as part of my university studies/research for a future PhD, it's all stills not video.
I've got to hand this first assessment in early January.
I'm focusing on covering my local area between Gosport, the ferry and Portsmouth (UK) and cultural perceptions of the areas.
I compared notes on Monday with someone else doing research, they were investigating sculpture and fine art. ya know fancy stuff.
by comparison, I was out Saturday night wit my camera studying the local night life and got a cracking shot of a lady with a flexible phallus, as she pointed it at me and flexed it like a pump action weapon.
she had already wanged a policeman with it first.
Honestly, I couldn't say which of us got the best deal on the research project...

So basically every bond movie ever but with different actors and locations.
but it has nice locations and Monica Belluci.
Did I mention Monica Belluci? It has Monica Belluci. I don't really understand why her character was required for the plot but it has Monica Belluci. Bond basically saved her, promised her something, ****ed her, and left. I'm not even sure if she died or not. But it was Monica Belluci.
