Ballard’s High Rise is an obvious multi-floored analogy. But I liked the unusual take on that with 2019’s The Platform. A lavish spread is delivered to prisoners on a slowly descending platform, the top levels eating first… Grim.

Stressful social situations, snow, huskies - it’s the perfect pre Christmas films warm up film 😃

What is it about Australian Woolies that made it work, v British Woolies?

Riddick in Pitch Black: self-serving enough to get you out of ‘the sticky situation’.
@joeabercrombie.com throws up a couple of interesting candidates in The Blade Itself (Jezal dan Luthar and Glokta). Both far enough away from ‘hero’ whilst moving towards ‘hero’. If hero means ‘story-changer’.

Right off the back of the live Bugle, too!
Thoroughly enjoyed the stream 😃

Portals - I’m going to have to give Quantum Leap a shout here. Both for Al and his simple sliding holographic rectangle and for Sam portaling INTO another body.
Man I loved that show.

Could you explain a little what bucket means? I’ve interpreted it as the… container for the show? With all the jokes and pathos sort of all in one?
