Just watched #Candyman (1992) for the first time - brilliant movie! Thanks for the recommendation @scottweatherly.bsky.social!

Just finished this beautiful, sad, incredibly well-written story about a man struggling to accept his own sexuality. Deeply human and truly brilliant. #JamesBaldwin

Me: "I'd like to learn Italian please"

An excellent end to #TheHighRepublic novels @charlessoule.bsky.social did a phenomenal job, as expected! THR is incredibly special and has been an absolute roller coaster for the last 4 years in all the best ways.
Top tier #StarWars.

Can't wait to start @charlessoule.bsky.social's Trials Of The Jedi, and look at how incredible these sprayed edges are. Absolutely peak, great work @goldsborobooks.bsky.social!

About to watch the documentary about the weird cousin of #StarWars that no one at Lucasfilm talks about - The Holiday Special!
Excited about this documentary: The Disturbance In The Force!

Just watched #TheGreenMile for the second time (first time was like 15 years ago), forgot how unfathomably good it was. Director of Shawshank so not surprising!

Showing Megan this absolute gem of a movie (based on the iconic #Room movie, which we both love, but she's not seen this)!

Back from the amazing @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social, so am now relaxing with the next #HighRepublic book; Beware The Nameless by @zlikeinzorro.bsky.social! Getting closer to the end of this era and I've been loving every moment!
(Featuring Willow the dog being very comfy in the background!)

Very excited about this movie, had never heard of it before @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social announced their showing, but am so hyped to watch this (loose) Moby Dick adaptation from Japan.

Been having a great time at the @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social so far - excited to embark on Day 4, starting with 15 short films!
@secretbores.bsky.social & I have been recording reviews, interviews and more, so once the festival is over, there will be tons of content coming out from both of our feeds!

A great delivery day, especially as a High Republic fan!

Has anyone else seen 1985's Young Sherlock Holmes? I only just watched it and made a video review about it!
Listen on any podcast app or watch on YouTube at Genuine Chit-Chat! Also @secretbores.bsky.social & I will be covering the 40th Anniversary (& more) at @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social very soon!

The full long-form/video essay version of mine & @secretbores.bsky.social's deep dive into the penultimate episodes of #Andor are up!

This is the perfect pod before we get into the finale of #AndorSeason2, so listen on any podcast app or watch the annotated version at YouTube.com/@StarWarsChitChat!

Did you know there's already a sequel to the ninth episode of Andor Season 2 (Welcome To The Rebellion) available right now on Disney+, with more of Mon Mothma's Speech? And no, it's not Rogue One or the finale of Andor!

Watched #Thunderbolts today, no spoilers but I really enjoyed it! Some funny moments, good action, perfect runtime, story makes sense and the third act landed!
All the actors are fantastic and there are two post credit scenes, the first is fun but the end-credits scene is long and worth the wait!
May 5, 2025 at 4:13 PM
Full #Andpr review/breakdown/things you missed video is up! The audio version is on all podcast apps, but the annotated versions with images and additional information is now at www.youtube.com/@StarWarsChitChat! Subscribe for Star Wars clips & shorts and in-depth Star Wars videos!

Also for #StarWarsDay at Portsmouth Comic Con, I got my hands on these #HighRepublic (& other #StarWars) comic variants, both by @cavan.bsky.social & @charlessoule.bsky.social. @marclaming.bsky.social also kindly signed some of my Star Wars comics!

No spoilers; just finished episode 6 of #Andor; incredible.
Looking forward to recording thoughts tomorrow!
Eps 5 & 6 contain some of my favourite Star Wars dialogue ever. So much clever political manoeuvring, tense action scenes & the building towards something that we Rebels fans know is coming...
April 30, 2025 at 10:47 PM
Time to watch what is apparently one of the worst films ever made (for the first time)!

The S1 finale of #BornAgain was brutal! Some twists, some turns, action, political commentary and an ending (& post-credit scene) that make me immediately excited for S2!
An incredible season, up there with my favourite TV shows! I cannot wait for A2.
DD & Andor are the top Marvel/SW shows right now

Loved reaching S1 of #Andor, that final episode is just top tier, on every level 👌
