Why did I put off doing #MindMapping for so long? This was so therapeutic for me by just getting all my thoughts down on paper in this way! #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #MentalHealthMatters #mentalhealth #mentalwellbeing #MentalHealthAdvocate
Just finished watching Del Toro's #Frankenstein tonight.

Wasn't bad at all. However was it just me or did anyone feel really underwhelmed by how "unmenacing" the creature looked?

His design and make-up reminded me of this guy from The People Under The Stairs:

So apparently it's been confirmed by both Empire Magazine & Lionsgate that #KillBillTheWholeBloodyAffair is getting a UK cinema release from 5th December!

HYPE STARTS NOW.

There are just two new film releases on my radar to see in November:

#PredatorBadlands & #TheRunningMan

That is all.

I am more than halfway through re-reading #TheRunningMan and I can't help but wish that Colman Domingo should have been cast as Dan Killian, and Josh Brolin as Bobby Thompson! @edgarwright.bsky.social

I really should try to get into the habit of going to church every Sunday again if I can! I always come out of the morning service feeling really good about myself from a mental well-being perspective.

Me and @sarahbuddery.bsky.social have just completed our EPIC rewatch of all four back-to-back seasons of #StrangerThings ! What a journey. Totally forgotten just how terrifying S4 was!

Bring on the fifth and final season!

I just joined a local amateur theatre society very close to where I live! I have been wanting to join one for ages tbh but there weren't any ones as close to me before.

Looking forward to performing live on stage once again. I think the last time was back in 2014....

I think it says something about the world we’re in now that this year we’ve got four Stephen King adaptations on film, two of which are dystopia set films where human life is seen as expendable, and another is a black comedy parade of the random cruelty of death.

And then there’s Life of Chuck.

Tickets booked for #TheLongWalk at my local Odeon tomorrow! I am so stoked for it 😍

Until we address the issues under the surface, we will continue to see increased demand on overstretched public services.

I hear a lot of people mention that it's not long until Christmas RN but no one ever thinks to talk about Halloween in the same regard. I understand it's more of an American tradition, but it deserves to get more recognition in the UK!

Is this just me or is there any other like-minded hardcore movie fans who appreciate that there have been more horror movies coming out this year that are rated an 18 certificate?

I remember there were a number of years where so many horrors were released that were all rated a 15!

Just finished reading this for my monthly book club! Wasn't particularly too impressed though 😔

First novel I have read by Nicholls. Not sure if I should give One Day a go..?

The two horror films I'm intrigued to see this month are #Weapons and #BringHerBack #Horror #Cinema #UKFilmReleases2025

After being blown away by Superman, I was excited to see Fantastic Four: First Steps this weekend.

I have never left the cinema feeling so disappointed 😞 think my marvel days are well and truly behind me

Just came out of seeing #28YearsLater . I would say it was a brilliant threequel apart from the final 5 minutes! What were Boyle and Garland thinking ending the film like that? Was so disjointed and a bit distasteful from everything else

Now watching #MrHarrigansPhone (2022). I am a bit wary when it comes to films adapted from a short story by @stephenking.bsky.social but this one is surprisingly above average...

Also, I bloody miss Donald Sutherland 😭😭

Just watched the first trailer for #TheRunningMan . Looks so fun. I have faith in Edgar Wright that this will be a fantastic adaptation of the original material by @stephenking.bsky.social

I know it's only been a day since I've been back in the UK but I'm already missing Boston and Martha's Vineyard! It was honestly the best holiday I've ever had so far. So many wonderful memories and made some new American friends along the way. Can't get any better than that really!
