Meet Joe Black...

Joe Black was born in the summer of 1979, with Zimbabwe on the verge of total independence. Having missed the dreaded ‘born-free’ tag by mere months, he proceeded to grow into a fine upstanding citizen of the new democracy. Not.

What The Hell...

You may be surprised at the colours! I haven't converted to Old Hararians - I remain a Harare Sports Club man. I'd lost a bet to the OH coach, so we had to change for a while. Now I kinda like it ...

The Book of Eli (spoiler alert)

The Book of Eli. Starring Denzel Washington as a pilgrim walking across a barren post-apocalyptic wasteland of thirst and despair.

In his possession a precious book, the last of its kind, a book sought far and wide by murderous bandits, a book coveted by a power-hungry madman.

The book? A bible! The “walker”? Booooooring. The action sequences? Stilted. The storyline? Formulaic.

And then we find … the book is in braille. All along, Denzel was blind. Blind I say!

It’s I Am Legend without the dog.

    Haven’t read the spoiler as am planning to watch it, but is it all Zombies and stuff? Or Zombie like creatures, because I hate Zombies.

    Damn, I just read the spoiler. Goddammit!

  2. Joe Black Says:

    No zombies. No vampires. In fact, nothing supernatural at all, save all the bible stuff.

  3. Tara Says:

    That tickled me, ‘nothing supernatural at all, save all the bible stuff.’ Nice!

    lol@tara!

    havent watched it, not sure if I will. watched Pelham 123 on dvd last weekend though, denzel was good, travolta was better.

  9. Tara Says:

    I gave up on Denzel and John years ago.

    Anyone have any idea how I can edit or better yet delete my profile from a very annoying website known as ZimUpdate. I hate the idea that it turns out I am googable/googleable. Rather find the whoe thing it unnerving. Please help me. Will even settle for (virtual) viruses.

  10. Joe Black Says:

    Pelham 123 is awesome, Travolta’s still got it. Except all the Scientology gibberish, of course.

    Tara, send an email to the website’s administrator.

  11. Tara Says:

    I already tried that. One of those where the emails bounce back with some issue or other. But, thanks Joe.
