I care about accessibility, so no 'Likes' on posts with no image Alt text.

Checking out this 2023 Guy Ritchie film that I think passed me by. Not that I make a point of following his career, I just don't think I noticed this existed.

Anyway let's check out if I missed anything good.

Checking out QUEENS OF THE DEAD.

If I sit on the sofa during the day, this is the view I get.

My helpful "I'm here why aren't you giving me constant attention if I'm right here" assistant.

It's possible.

Is this your Chrysler?

And the lowest rated ones. Usually I don't like to be too negative. But these were all unartistic crap, and I'm still annoyed that one of the producers of Psyche kept her stupid big hat on in the cinema just infront of me. Because that's just rude and entitled, and I didn't like the film either.

Here's all the films I rated 5* this year (none were 2025 releases as I'm strict about my 5*s, again for no real reason).
January 7, 2026 at 2:20 PM
One of my lowest quantity years. Although reading this and seeing 4.2 films a week, that actually sounds like quite a lot.
January 7, 2026 at 2:20 PM
OK, so here's my Top 10 movies of 2025. For totally unnecessary reasons I don't update it again after Dec 31st, so if I missed any then I'll have to live with that.

It was a good year really. Although I wish I watched more international movies. This is a bit of a Basic list. But hey, shoot me.

Still digging into records I missed from 2025. Really enjoying this one from Paralyzed: Rumble&Roar.

Just straight-up bluesy stoner-rock, with quite a bit of The Doors influence (almost bordering on cover band on a few tracks). But a bit more laid-back.

I bet this sounds ace on vinyl.

First movie of the year is a Ghibli I've not seen before. POM POKO.

Hosting NYE again for the lads* this year. Thought I'd dress Smart-Casual.

Possibly my last movie of 2025 now. Hoping I'm one of the folks who digs this one.
December 30, 2025 at 8:01 PM
Checking out KILL ME AGAIN, because;

a) I hear it's fun,
b) I'm trying to get through any 2025 films before the end of the year, and
c) it's directed by Keith Jardine, who was fun when he was a UFC fighter and had the nickname 'The Dean of Mean'. Which surely translates to a great film director.

It's not Boxing Day without watching Worlds Strongest Man.

And I'll never not be amused by just how much bigger these dudes are compared to regular folks. I mean, look at the state of this!
December 26, 2025 at 7:06 PM
Merry Boxing Day folks.

Had a bit of Port left* so I've made myself a glass of Port & Lemonade, a classic Christmas drink.

(*Opened a new bottle of Port)

JAWS was on BBC this evening, but it's not very Christmassy so I didn't watch it.

But you know what (probably) is Christmassy? SANTA JAWS. So I'm watching that.

My sister's indestructible dog survives another Xmas!

A few years ago he went to the vet for eating a plate of rat poison.

Another Xmas he ate a load of mince pies (with raisins) including another vet trip.

This year he ate the Quality Street hidden on, and by the tree for the kids. Wrappers too.
December 25, 2025 at 9:33 PM
Ok, one last Christmas one before bed. Hopefully Santa doesn't interrupt me as it's just turned midnight here. I'm not sure what time he arrives.

I've not seen this one before. P2
December 25, 2025 at 12:02 AM
Ok, I've done SANTAS SLAY, and MUPPETS CHRISTMAS CAROL so it's time to get serious. Let's welcome in Christmas with THE DAY OF THE BEAST.
December 24, 2025 at 9:09 PM
Well, I think it's ok to pour myself a drink and start the Christmas cheer. By sitting on the sofa with the cat and a Rum & Ginger Ale, and checking out SANTAS SLAY.
December 24, 2025 at 2:15 PM
Time to tick off another 2025 film before the year comes to a close. The probably not very Christmassy BRING HER BACK.
December 21, 2025 at 11:30 PM
Watching the supposedly shitty RED ONE, mostly because there's not that many Christmas films on streaming that I either haven't seen, or want to see.

It can't be that bad, surely?
December 21, 2025 at 7:50 PM
Digging this old-school style poster for upcoming movie THE PLAGUE.

I hear the film is pretty great too. Wonder if I'll get to see it this year?
