Just watched ‘No Other Land’ just now and I am so fucking angry.
Not sure I could ever endure such cruelty. And let’s face it, nobody should ever have to endure such cruelty.

Saw 9 movies in the cinema last month.
Rather than a straight worst to best, I’ll break them into two groups.
Fun movies (from worst to best)
Now You See Me…
Wicked For Good
Bugonia
Predator: Badlands
The Running Man

Been playing Dark Quarter by LuckyDuckGames/VanRyderGames these last few weeks.
Enjoying the narrative. The writers have gone out of their way to ensure you know that this is an adult-themed game.
We’re on the last chapter and can’t help thinking we might have fucked it.
We’ll see in a week or two.

This was genuinely one of the best moments from the #indyref when a guy in a rickshaw humiliated the Labour pols from London who came to tell us that we were better off being ruled from London.

Has any journalist ever corrected Trump on the fact that asylum seekers didn’t come from (and aren’t going to) asylums?
He keeps going on about immigrants coming from mental institutions and it’s plain to see that he’s deliberately associating one with the other.

‘I Swear’ was fucking brilliant. Think I’m emotionally fragile with all that’s going on at the moment but I fucking wept a lot.
Only spoiled by a couple who thought it was ok to give a running commentary throughout the whole fucking movie. Watch it at home you ignorant fucks!!!!!

Wicked For Good was decent but I think the tunes are stronger in the first film. Kind of ties up with my feelings on the stage musical so…

The Death of Bunny Munro is worth a watch even if the central character is a genuinely terrible person.
Haven’t read Nick Cave’s novel so not sure if it’s less depraved than the source or if it got the level spot on.
Heavy suicide themes throughout though, if that’s a trigger to avoid.

Have a lot of time for David Olusoga and the history programmes he does for the BBC. His latest, ‘Empire’ is a must watch.

Another ineffective treatment…
Feels like the cancer is slowly starting to win against my wife and I’m fucking stuck feeling helpless.
New chemo starts today. Crossing everything that it actually starts reducing things to give us as much time together as is possible.
Fuck cancer!

Might be a controversial opinion but I thought The Witcher season 4 was still pretty decent.
I’m not sure it’s ever been a truly top tier show but for this season my wife and I binged it over 2 or 3 days.

Great result for Scotland tonight even if we got jammy with that sending off.
Hoping our games are all in Canada and Mexico.

Shabana Mahmood was one of the names (alongside Wes Streeting) touted as a potential usurper/successor to Kier Starmer.
God help this country, who seems to have lost all sense of decency and compassion.

Two completely different movie going experiences this weekend. Now You See Me, Now You Don’t is unadulterated nonsense that I enjoyed but will likely forget in a week or two.
Die My Love was less fun but is undoubtedly the better movie. One that I’ll be thinking about for a lot longer.

When the fuck did Wes Streeting become the darling of the Labour Party? He obviously likes being on the telly a lot but I’ve always thought that he was fucking rubbish.

Two movies in two nights. One featured some really striking performances from its leads (Anemone), the other a perfectly enjoyable piece of Alan Bennett (The Choral).
Neither will be in my top 5 of the year but the former might be my wife’s top film of the year.

For as shite as the UK Labour Party are, I’m glad I live here and not in the US.
The Democrats had a fantastic electoral week and yet it seems like they are the ones who are going to back down over the shutdown - with fuck all gained for doing so.
Fight the fascists you cowards.

Enjoyed Predator: Badlands but feels really weird to see a franchise go from being an 18 certificate to one that you can take your kids to - 12A (equivalent to PG-13).

I’ve seen a lot of movies in the cinema this year but not enough weird ones. Bugonia filled that hole.
Don’t really want to reveal plot spoilers but myself and most of the audience had fun with this.
There are moments of violence that are not fun but there’s definitely some silly moments in there.

Movies I saw in cinema in October ranked from worst to best:
After The Hunt
Roofman
Tron: Ares
Good Fortunes
Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere
Frankenstein
One Battle After Another
A middling month other than the two top movies.
Still to see I Swear and missed Smashing Machine and Him.
