I have to say I am happy that we never went to the cinema to see 2012. The storyline is absolute shite, the only reason that you would watch it is to see the special effects (which to be honest I had heard). Its a nice change though to be watching a movie at all though. Whilst we were in Beijing we could only watch TV & the only English channel was the 24 hr news, which gets a little tedious. It’s kinda amazing that there is only a news channel (CCTV) in English, there are quite a few channels (30+), I would have thought that they might have a channel like SBS in OZ that shows foreign films (actually Chinese films would be great) with English captions, but alas there is not.

We are in Chengdu now, at Sims Cozy Guesthouse, the first place that we have stayed with a DVD player in your room, not to mention an abundance of DVD’s to select from too. Tonight was 2012 (they couldn’t find The Love Boat DVD), not sure what we will watch tomorrow.
