He/Him; music, film and TV nerd, formerly of Twitter/Not X, a rare breed I’m sure you would agree! Current Blog: www.clarksvista.com Opinions are my own but prone to change; let’s see how this goes, eh? 😊

Please find attached said notes complete with half-baked rambles attempting to justify why I try to distract myself so copiously in these awful times here… #bestof2025 #newmusic #freepalestine #protectthedolls clarksvista.com/2025-q2/

Rocky IV was pretty big over here though…

Excluding EPs, live recordings and compilations, by the time of writing this article it turns out I have only listened to 994 albums so far this year…

I will get over the disappointment soon enough, but in the meantime, here are some words on some of the good stuff.

Q3 2025; just 258 albums listened these past three months, slacking a little but hey, life gets in the way.

More words about the better efforts highly likely to come through…

I guess you needed to watch something else at some point. 😁

what movie do you consider “perfect”?

Got home super quick from North to South East London earlier this afternoon; it’s lovely when public transport works… #tubestrikes #payyourstaff

Post a PERFECT album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana or Pearl Jam.

Saw Weapons yesterday; a really, very good mashup of skin-crawling horror and modern day fairytale dressed in true crime procedural duds and mundane smalltown minutiae leading with immense tension and slow-burn reveals only to release quite magnificently.

If and when; it seems like Nicole Kidman announced it before anyone else was made aware.

I can admit that maybe I was too fond of the closing moments of S1 to give S2 more of a chance, and yeah bits of it were great (mainly with Meryl Streep and the instant anti-chemistry she had with the rest of the cast), but it felt pretty rushed and misshapen to me.

The biggest, glossiest soap opera of the past decade; S1 is pretty terrific with an immensely satisfying finale. S2 though… 😕

If you see me at the club, this is what you’ll find

Jungle Book is considered somewhat-good by many, so maybe not quite as funny with that one?

CV_Subs @cvsubs.bsky.social · Aug 3

If a consensus cannot be reached as to whether The Best Jump Scare In Cinema is in either Mulholland Drive or The Exorcist III, The Descent comfortably sits in third place regardless.

The marvel of makeup in Suicide Squad was never in question; it’s funny imagining Barry Jenkins trying to get their Oscar from Killer Croc though, right?

CV_Subs @cvsubs.bsky.social · Aug 2

If they were given the Best Makeup winner’s envelope instead, and Faye Dunaway smilingly declared… “Suicide Squad”
