Absolutely loved Guillermo's Frankenstein.

Operatic gothic tragedy writ large and luscious, both grotesque and beautiful and often in unison. Stunning visuals and phenomenal performances. A big, beating and pained heart at its core.

A definitive adaptation, one I'm very glad I saw on a big screen.

They also like to hump people's heads. At one point a sperm collecting helmet was trialed to help save the species.

Seriously. Villa's Tacos made for one of the most delicious meals of any genre I've ever had. Incredible flavours.

You know what's a fucking great thing to do on a Friday night in Vancouver?

Going to see Bright Eyes.

Hey there's me having a blissful moment at Nine Inch Nails

No better combo than Christina Lake in August and barrel fermented/aged Saison from local legend Tristan at Temporal Ales.

Stone fruit, rye spice and buttery oak. Complex, bone dry and sharply effervescent.

Excellent.

Absolute cluster fuck of traffic today in Vancouver.

Took me two hours to get from North Van to New West. Drove by two accidents on the way and in the two hours since I got home there have apparently been several more.

Still looks awful at this very moment.

I worked very hard on this show last summer and these past few days almost 25 million Netflix accounts tuned in.

It's a great feeling.
