Just rewatched One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. Hits a bit different nowadays; McMurphy, although the antiestablishment, now seems a scumbag initially (incarcerated for statutory rape). He inspires revolution via prostitutes and booze, which doesn’t seem as revolutionary as it once did. Thoughts?

PARTY MEAT AND CHEESES ALWAYS PLEASES!!!

Big thanks to my good buddy, @thedudebecool.bsky.social for sending me these beauties, (completely unexpectedly, but very much appreciated).

Prime have Back to the Future Part II, available as part of the standard offerings, but the original and III are rent jobs. Motherhubbards!!!

PSA for anyone who needs to hear it. ‘Tis the season for… Hot Frosty. Just look at the synopsis and tell me you’re not tempted? 𝘈 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘥𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧. 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘥𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦, 𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦 — 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵. Tonight’s viewing. Or Contagion.

Quite surprised to see this on Netflix, bearing in mind ‘Murica’s Supreme Leader’s propensity for lawsuits and whatnot, but this has just rocked up on the UK version. I’m going in…

Fuck me. They’ve made a film based on that Kate Bush song starring Barbie! I know her stock was high after that viral Stranger Things thing, but seriously? (Looks quite good mind). youtu.be/3fLCdIYShEQ?...

Fun fact: At the end of the newly available Fantastic Four: First Steps, (via the mouse app and DVD, etc.) there’s a hidden QR code at the end of the final post credits scene. Scan that on the interweb device of your choice for free FF comics to peruse! (I won’t spoil which ones but they’re ace.)

Anyone else have an exceptionally strong compulsion for cheese on toast on occasion?

Every night I lie in bed, The brightest colors fill my head, A million dreams are keeping me awake, I think of what the world could be, A vision of the one I see, A million dreams is all it's gonna take, Oh, a million dreams for the world we're gonna make. Anyhoo. Carry on.

What a song… What a video… What a band…. Wish they’d come back. youtu.be/Hyk-Vdd_Qrk

Now on Disney+. Also IMAX enhanced, which the recently purchased disc isn’t. Mothertruckers.

Explored Private tab, which supposedly blocks history and doesn’t show nearest and dearest the shite I was searching for, in the event of being hit by a bus or whatnot. I can’t help but feel this does not help. Like the digital equivalent of a wink whilst checking into a hotel as Mr & Mrs Smith.

Any other female dog owners fed up of all the marketing aimed at male mutts? It’s all ‘Good boy this’ and ‘Good boy that’. What about the lady hounds? It’s unfair, it’s sexist and it’s disrespectful to our female furry friends! You know what? We need to smash the pawtriarchy! Who’s with me?!?

Seasons greetings to all those who celebrate.

PSA: Have just noticed this film has been added to Prime. If you’re looking for smug, upper class wankers detached from reality in a way that doesn’t reflect British life at all, with a leading lady performance that’s embarrassingly bad, this might be the film for you.

Kinda love this new feature in the latest iOS where you can digitally remove unwanted elements from pictures and images. Removing characters you’re a bit meh about from covers is strangely satisfying (and addictive). The long winter nights will fly by!

Another early arrival… #CometoDaddy

It’s time.

Not usually a fan of stupid gimmicky variant covers, but couldn’t resist this 70th Anniversary Muppet celebration in the new run of Captain America. (And if you recognise from where this homages, you’re probably someone I should be friends with).

Groovy early delivery today. #cometodaddy

Currently using a hire car and this is the bullshit I have to put up with. Fucksake. When I drive the dog to the vets, she likes to unwind on the way home with a gasper and a Gravy Bone, to overcome the trauma of summat being shoved up her bumhole. Won’t someone think of the hound’s nerves?

The people in the UK with Halloween decorations outside their house this early in October are probably the same people who applaud the pilot when a plane lands.

My daughter got a text from her mum tonight asking what she wanted from life. This led to a deep philosophical discussion regarding her hopes, aspirations and dreams. How we laughed when we learned life had autocorrected from Waitrose and mum was just trying to suss what offspring wanted for tea.

Weirdly, I seem to have come up in a LinkedIn search for someone from Bakery Business Magazine… Amazing news! I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time… Alongside Centre Parting Monthly, they’re one of my favourite periodicals.

UK muckers… Watch out for this scam text message and share with any elderly folks who might fall foul due to its sense of urgency. I just got it and for a split second wondered if it’s legit. (It’s not).

Happy #BatmanDay to all who celebrate. Coincidentally, I got the latest Absolute edition today which GLOWS IN THE DARK! What a time to be alive.

What a time to be alive.

Finally giving this a watch, after the boxset has been gathering dust in the watchlist for way too long. So far, so intriguing.

Nearly walked straight into this. Ffs.

Marching Powder starring Danny fackin’ Dyer is now on Prime. Pwoper nawty!

Just came across an interesting fun fact. In the Netflix Sandman series (which, alas has lately flown under the radar due to its author’s misdeeds), the character Hob Gadling, is played by Ferdinand Kingsley. Who’s only the son of famous screen psychopath, Ben Kingsley, off of Gandhi and Sexy Beast.

Giving The Godfather another rewatch… it still holds up. And, maaaan, just like Goodfellas, it makes me soooo hungry.

Two questions, pleaseandthankyou. 1) Why is today Star Trek day? b) Can anyone shed any light on my question yesterday? I assumed I posted the wrong time and it was missed, as it’s such as interesting query, there’s no way it was simply ignored. 🤷‍♂️ bsky.app/profile/pabl...

Uh oh…

Watching an episode of Star Trek: Next Gen and it’s kinda triggered summat I’ve always wondered. If they’re on an ongoing mission to explore new worlds, etc., how come they’re always returning to Earth, welcoming visits from familiar friends, etc? Surely they should be further and further away?

Cheeky bastard pigeons in Broadmead, Bristol have no fear.

Just noticed the new series of It’s Always Sunny (17) is on Netflix (UK). Hurrah!

The latest episode of Alien Earth, ‘In Space, No One…’ is probably the best Alien content since Alien3. Yeah, I said it.

At least the Alpha has evolved enough for the 28 Years Later sequel to be wearing summat to protect his modesty. Not sure if I could handle another mahoosive Alpha bald-headed yogurt slinger when The Bone Temple comes out in January.

Just found a picture of Benedict Cumberbatch photobombing U2 in my camera roll. Please proceed with your Saturday.

Shining a light on a film which seems to have flown under the radar. My Oxford Year, a recent arrival on the ‘Flix on the Net variety. Would really dig it if you dove into my thoughts on that Letterbox thang. Or not. Whatevs. But it’s worth your while, yo. boxd.it/aU5JEf

Alien Earth is fine, but I feel the opening credits needs a theme tune. Here’s my idea for the lyrics. 🎶 Alien Earth, they’re here to give birth, Throo-hoo your chest plate (Ahh). Alien Earth, they’re full of girth, As they enter through your mow-wouth (Ahh). 🎶 Anyhoo, a WIP. Feedback welcome.

#NowWatching… 😬 Please, no replies, qts, etc. at this difficult time.

Just watching #BatmanVsSuperman and cannot believe the Caped Crusader didn’t say “Let that sink in…” after this masterful move…

There’s a bloke over the road from me, I think he’s doing DIY, but he’s topless and in full frame of the window with a lamp on the ledge. Looks quite muscled too. It’s quite disconcerting as I’m trying to watch a film. I considered closing my curtains but then thought, what the hell? Let him look.

I bloody love The Wolf of Wall Street and #amwatching it again now. (Time off from work, yay!) Looks ace on 4kizzle, surprisingly, but this 👇 exchange of dialogue is ace and probably much more influential in the modern lexicon than a lot of other films from that decade.

‘Sup, fellow film fans… Has any of my movie loving mooties seen this? It looks like it might be right up my alley but would prefer any external opinions before I commit to 1hr52 I won’t be able to get back…

Apropos of nothing but I really hate facehuggers off of Alien. They really give me the willies.
