Just seen that all 15 seasons of ER are coming to UK Netflix on Feb 10th. I've seen up to about Season 10, but fell away from it (I think the SECOND time a helicopter landed on Romano was my breaking point), but I may well take this opportunity to run through the whole series...

I've hardly watched any films this year (just 18 so far), so, in search of some motivation, I'm going to try going to various parts of my collection and pick at least one movie I've not seen starting with A and then on to B etc on once I've cycled round the various genres and labels.

One of Band Maid's simpler songs, but this live version (with a drum solo in which Akane, as ever, seems to be having THE MOST FUN) is one of my go to tracks for introducing people to them. It's just so infectious.

I put the new NEK! video on a discord where we mainly talk movies (there is a music channel too) and people shared a few of their Japanese recommendations, including this one, which I also recommend.

I like this stupid, stupid series despite myself. I think it's not so much that they're great movies (they aren't) as I like the concept and the world, and keep hoping they'll make one that really excels. A TV series might be the place for it.
Any fans of the 2003 film, Underworld?

I'm... of a certain age... the right age for this to hit the nostalgia centre of my brain. I'm not sure we need to do the fish out of water thing again though. Why not just set the movie fully on Eternia?

I hope there will be online tickets, live or as an archive, for Scandal's 20th anniversary gig in August. I was there virtually for the 15th anniversary, and they were great. The 20th should be an incredible show.

New single from Scandal. So much better than last year's EP. After a couple of albums that largely moved in a more gentle direction, this is classic spiky guitar pop Scandal.

Scandal are doing a live presentation right now leading up to the debut of their new video. No translation on this intro, sadly. I assume they are talking about the single and other plans for the 20th anniversary (which is in August this year)

I think this is one of, if not the, first list like this where I've not seen a single entry and, tbh, only even heard of two of them. That in itself means I'm interested in all of these.

Brilliant movie. Also has one of my favourite cinephile nods to another film: Rose Lynn stays at the same motel as Samantha Mathis' character in The Thing Called Love, and the same song lyrics that character wrote are still up on the billboard at the motel.
Throwing this out there given the Jessie Buckley love going round:
If you haven't seen Wild Rose, fix that now.
