What you may need to know

1. The concept: Tom Cruise is Wall-E

2. This is the second Cruise flick in a row where he plays a character
named Jack: we sense a potential Scientologist conspiracy.

3. This is the first of two back-to-back sci-fi epics The Cruiser has
just shot; that Battleshipfield Earth re-boot can’t be far off.

4. It’s directed by Joseph Kosinski, who did Tron Legacy (2010). He’s doing
another Tron flick next.

5. The female leads are British actress Andrea Riseborough and Seven Psychopaths (2012) star Olga Kurylenko. Even odds says Tom’s married one of them by the time this has opened.

6. They really should include this on the soundtrack.

7. Trailer Truism: the unexpected arrival of Morgan Freeman always provokes laughter.

8. Fact: Risky Business is THIRTY years old next year. Which reminds us
of the best thing its leading man has done this century.

Release Date: April 2013

We have two – yes TWO – copies of the book of the much-loved Come Here To Me blog in book form.

Come Here To Me: Dublin’s Other History was launched this week by hoodie-clad historian/hipster Diarmaid Ferriter (above right with the Come Here To Me compilers, from left, Donal Fallon, Sam McGrath and Ciaran Murray).

Come Here To Me! is a group blog that “focuses on the life and culture of Dublin city. Music, history, football, politics and pub crawls” and is a lovely auld read.

For a chance to secure a copy just finish this sentence.

I would like this book so I can give it to……………….. because…………………
