Leo what’s-his-name is still desperately trying to shake off that ‘kid-look’ he had when he was drowning with my foot on his head at the end of Titanic (or maybe that was just my wishful thinking). He’s grown a beard – possibly because he’s starring opposite Russell ‘monotone’ Brand (or is it Crowe?) in Body of Lies. Anyway, I think he thinks if he looks like the offspring of ZZ Top he’ll be taken more seriously in the War on Terror.
Luckily, he’s on our side (as we’re the good guys – obviously). And a damn fine job he does of it. I watched him walk into one of those scary ‘terrorist cells’ we’re always hearing about on CNN and mercilessly gun down a load of non-English speaking people with funny names.
It just got me thinking. This is Hollywood’s version of the story. I know Iraq and Afghanistan aren’t exactly renown for their epic blockbusters, but part of me would still like to see them have a go at one. Picture it, a gun-totting Arab, blissfully blasting those evil infidels away in that funky ‘bullet-time’ slow motion effect the Matrix pioneered. Would it work? Or would the CIA just close my blog for even daring to suggest it?
God bless America by the way.
