QT slagging off Matthew Lillard is just the most obscenely mean-spirited thing, I'm glad Matthew has reacted and he's damn right an A lister wouldn't get the same treatment. Sorry Quentin love your films but you're a cowardly twat.

AI Bros are a weird deluded bunch arent they?

If I was on the fence about seeing the new Spongebob film at the cinema the Patrick eyepatch gag has sold it for me.

Gambled on a full screening of Zootropolis today. Kids were pretty much good as gold, the parents less so.

I love a heart warming tale of obscenely wealthy people becoming even more obscenely wealthy especially if can come at the expense of people who are not as well off.

Judging by the Box for our 10 year old Christmas Tree and its 15+ year old predecessor still in our loft, Christmas trees have never had the word Christmas on them. The state of these gammons, saw one absolute weapon moaning that mince pies didn't have the word Christmas on them 👀

This will be crap I'm sure but I do like that cast.

Ted Sarandos already making sounds about shortening theatrical windows. I mean they're cut to the fucking bone in most cases as it is now. Maybe he is going to kill cinema.

Shall I stay home and watch films or go and watch 5 Nights at Freddy's 2? I will almost inevitably rate it 2 stars.

Wait Tarantino is coming after Owen Wilson now? I mean who the fuck doesn't like Owen Wilson? Wow.

Rewatching Braindead because why not? I genuinely think Tim Balme here is up there with Bruce Campbell in Evil Dead 2, he's like a combination of Ash and Frank Spencer. Should've been a genre star, maybe it came too late i.e. the 90s slump or too broadly comedic.

I like that Spotify has added the number of listens to your Top Songs playlist. Surprised I listened to the new Manics album 17-20 times.

Pinched from t'other place but got to agree. Didn't really get the hype for Eddie Munson or Joseph Quinn tbh.

New installment of my semi-regular "Alien vs Predator is a Good Film" series.

I can't really fathom how people aren't entertained by this film. When it gets going its so much fun.

Also the Xenos look Infinitely better than in their most recent outing in Alien Earth.

Rewatched Top Gun Maverick for the first time since release. Its total entertainment and gets away with being so cheesy and corny, it just hits all the feels. I don't know if we'll ever see anything as purely thrilling as the aerial combat scenes, even watching at home my heart was in my throat.

Hopes that Sisu 2 might cling on for a second week with some showings its feasible to attend have been dashed. But the good news is I can go and see many films that have been out for weeks already or Elf or The Polar Express. A big slap in the face with a fish for whoever plans this shit.
Rant over.

More people need to say "No" when their picture gallery app asks them if they want to increase the resolution of their image.

This drives me absolutely fucking mental. I watch Disney+ on two TVs both in my house, account not shared with anyone. I have to contact them multiple times a year to reset. It sucks I tell thee.
