Mostly retired DJ at Pop-o-matic and Got To Give It Up. 1/3 of popshow promoters Macho Music Is Stupid. Also quite keen on horror and craft beer. He/him.
Just Watch is so shit. Happily telling me that BLOOD RAGE is on Shudder, when BLOOD RAGE is not on Shudder.

The "don't have an extra kid if you can't afford it" brigade get awfully upset when you suggest they don't stay in their £2m house if they can't afford it, don't they?

I'm just going to assume that it's shit and hope to pleasantly surprised.

Hear me out: a film about Deodato's trial for murder/obscenity for making CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST.

A Hallmark Christmas movie we can all relate to 🤣

All this time I've been listening to the 1997 version of "Music For 18 Musicians" like a n00b when the 1978 version exists.

You just died. The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you

Why though @mammothpenguins.bsky.social 😔

Thanks for (admittedly minor) PLUR1BUS spoiler in a headline there, AV Club!

I know that conflict is important in drama (and comedy), but I really want an episode of BOB'S BURGERS where Bob has a really nice Thanksgiving where everything goes according to plan. It's his favourite holiday and the man deserves it.

An industrious gal comes to a remote place, only to find herself drawn to the quirky folks she meets and eventually becomes one of them? Darlin', that's a Hallmark movie.

My 7 year old just reached for a piece of pizza fresh out of the oven and exclaimed, in the same tone as an adult swearing…

“English folklore, that’s hot!”

I choked laughing ENGLISH FOLKLORE AS A SWEAR? WHO ARE YOU?!?

Second evening in a row of watching "Isabelle Huppert has a bad time" films, this time with ELLE.

And once again, the only thing in the budget that affects me is the alcohol duty rise.

Been waiting six months for a hospital appointment (for nothing serious), and today I've had two letters offering appointments on two different dates at two different hospitals. Nice to have options I guess.

Starsailor are still a thing? And are playing Tramlines next year? Weird.

Probably regret it after how meh his last few films have been, but Guillermo del Toro's AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS adaptation. Budget: unlimited.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Until your employer starts insisting that you use it, of course.
one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.
