Supreme Leader Snoke - yes!!! Spot on from The Times #wutheringheights

And for my final rage comment - this sort of racism is precisely why we need people of all socio-economic and racial backgrounds making films. Emerald Fennell read Nelly tell Heathcliff his father “was Emperor of China and your mother an Indian Queen” and still envisioned him as white. Fuck me.

I wonder if Melania is a better film. Not even joking. www.bina007.com/2026/02/wuth... #filmsky #wutheringheights

Diary of a failed cineaste. 1. Attempted Voice of Hind Rajab. Pussied out/not sure we should be restaging an actual kid’s snuff audio. 2. Tried The Housemaid but it’s a sat-am 2nd screen watch. 3. Now Chronology of Water. It’s like that art college film in Ghost World. 4. I watch Dunk and Egg.

Reading the new Gabriel Sherman book on the Murdochs and this made me chuckle

The new Lord of the Flies has an epic orchestral score. But my word the colour saturation is turned up to 11. Had to adjust the settings on my TV to save my eyes.

Come for Ranveer, stay for Akshaye! The best and most memed performance of 2025 is now on Netflix - Akshaye Khanna as Balochi crime boss and terrorist enabler in Dhurandar. www.bina007.com/2026/02/dhur... #dhurandar #filmsky

The more I think about #Dhurandar the more I love it. Akshaye Khanna dancing into my veins. More seriously now that the M:I franchise is over is the mantle of big budget well-done action now in the hands of Bollywood? #filmsky

I continue to be delighted - particularly by Egg’s ribald song. I remember thing zero about the books. Maybe the spooky doomy prophecy is what inspires Egg to be a good king who WILL be missed by the smallfolk? #AKnightOfTheSevenKingdoms #tvsky

God bless Rob Reiner and all who sailed in him. This was just delightful silly fun. I think we’re all just Elton John - dreaming of our chance to sing along with Tap. www.bina007.com/2026/02/spin... #spinaltap

In other news, finally watched Mission: Impossible - Final Reckoning. Silly fun. Got a bit dusty on the sofa that final scene.

If anyone wants a good Bollywood action thriller Dhurandar just dropped on netflix. Obvs you have to be okay with Pakistan being the baddies … #filmsky

Thoroughly enjoyed Spinal tap 2. Just joyous.

Arsenal are having a bit of a wobble in the PL, is it.

Surprised to see Is This Thing On? Getting so many three star reviews. We really enjoyed it at LFF!

Surprised how much I admired H is for Hawk. Like Sorry Baby another rare film that shows the power of female friendship. And a sensitive but never manipulative portrayal of grief. Claire Foy superb as always. #filmsky #hisforhawk

Writer-director Jack King's directorial debut, The Ceremony, is an extraordinary, sometimes beautiful, insightful and deeply humane film. www.bina007.com/2026/01/the-... #filmsky

Kate Hudson’s Oscar-nominated performance in Song Song Blue is good, but I don’t get the hype. That said, it's by far the best thing in this deeply mediocre musical biopic. www.bina007.com/2026/01/song... #filmsky #songsungblue

I cannot imagine a better doc to make me angry. The Librarians is about the fascists trying to censor what our kids read and coercing and threatening our hero librarians. You can and should watch it on BBC iPlayer now. www.bina007.com/2026/01/the-... #filmsky #thelibrarians

I thoroughly enjoyed writer-director Harry Lighton's brave, bold and strangely heart-warming coming-of-age drama PILLION. It stars Harry Melling, last seen as Call-Me Risley in Wolf Hall and Alexander Skarsgard - both fab. www.bina007.com/2026/01/pill... #pillion #filmsky

The problem with Cherien Dabis' clearly heartfelt multi-generational Palestinian saga All That’s Left Of You is that it's so simplistic in its politics. www.bina007.com/2026/01/all-... #filmsky

In It Was Just An Accident, Jafar Panahi shows us how ordinary people are coerced and made complicit in autocratic regimes and lose their moral compass. Full review: www.bina007.com/2026/01/it-w... #filmsky

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms started well. Not sure if it’s the whistling but this gave me a happy times Butch and Sundance vibe. I liked the lowkey melancholy derping around. If you haven’t read the short stories don’t watch the “next time on” preview! #tvsky

I watched It Was Only An Accident today. I think it works as political discourse but not as a film. #filmsky

Watching Song Sung Blue - an hour in and bored to tears. Not sure why Kate Hudson is getting awards love. Maybe because she’s just so likeable and unlikely to ever be in anything really awards-worthy? Maybe I just don’t like Neil diamond enough….

What a delightful and utterly surprising film The Baltimorons is. Really worth seeking out: a low key romantic comedy that’s also a love letter to Baltimore. www.bina007.com/2026/01/the-...

Meanwhile Marli Salmon giving me severe Where’s Wallace vibes. Thoughts @tayo3000.bsky.social ?

Gyokeres is fine bossing lower table teams but has been found out in the upper Premier League. Now Kai is back he will be our Cup guy. Fans were so happy when we got Gyok and Eze and writing angry letters about Noni - but, that dipshit penalty aside, he’s been the best signing bar Zubi. #Arsenal

I watched #Sirat and what a pile of steaming horseshit. Pretentious wank. Jumps the shark. All the outrage. Banging soundtrack though. Peter Bradshaw - with whom I rarely agree - said this was the most over-rated film of 2025 and I agree. Once you get Monty Python into your head the show is over.

Eephus - A laconic gentle film about men saying goodbye to their local baseball field. Lots of low key bants. Charming but flimsy. www.bina007.com/2026/01/eeph... #eephus #filmsky

East Of Wall - Really loved this unique film about a widow raising her kids on a ranch and helping transform the lives of troubled teens. It’s rare to see a screen presence as charismatic as Tabatha Zimiga. www.bina007.com/2026/01/east... #filmsky #eastofwall

Wagner Moura is outstanding in this epic, operatic dissection of corruption, courage and memory. Also a powerful final cameo from Udo Kier. #TheSecretAgent is a stunning film. www.bina007.com/2026/01/the-... #filmsky

Watched The Secret Agent - superb. Epic. Almost felt like a high class hbo miniseries in its expansiveness. Wagner Moura fantastic. Truly a film for our times. Is it better than No Other Choice? No. #oscars

Josh O’Connor continues to impress in Rebuilding. He plays a farmer living in a FEMA trailer after wildfire destroys his house and farm. A human and languorous film about found family. www.bina007.com/2026/01/rebu... #filmsky #joshoconnor

Sarah Friedland’s Familiar Touch is a beautifully acted film centring the experience of a woman suffering from dementia. Kathleen Chalfant rightly beat out a strong field to win Best Actress at the National Critics Circle Awards. www.bina007.com/2026/01/fami... #filmsky

#Rebuilding is a charming film - #JoshOConnor as an American farmer whose land is wrecked by wildfires and the community he finds in his FEMA truck park. Quiet, sweet, very affecting. Good supporting performances from the wildly under-rated #MeghannFahy and True Detective’s Kali Reis. #filmsky

I am very late to this party but I thoroughly enjoyed One Of Them Days. It’s so rare to see a good buddy conedy caper let alone one starring black women. Keke Palmer and SZA are genuinely funny in this and it’s such a good gen Z story. www.bina007.com/2026/01/alop... #filmsky #sza #oneofthemdays

Also watched the Chevy Chase doc on Sky. Clearly a dick BUT the childhood trauma is clear snd cutting him out of the SNL celebrations was unforgivable. I don’t think we ever got a balanced account of what happened on Community. #tvsky #snl50 #chevychase

Incredibly impressed by the dark comedy-drama #Twinless, by writer-director-actor James Sweeney. A sweet or scary stalker (YMMV) infiltrates the life of a grieving twin, played beautifully by Dylan O’Brien. Slippery, funny, strangely moving, brilliantly constructed. #filmsky

Thoroughly enjoyed #Splitsville. Proves Adria Arjona’s comedic turn in Hit Man was no accident. And a better performance from Dakota Johnson (and script skewering modern dating) than The Materialists. One of the funniest fight scenes too. You can tell the lead actors / co-writers are best mates IRL

A Little Prayer is a quiet compassionate gem of an independent film starring David Strathairn and Jane Levy. The latter has justifiably been nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for her performance. Do seek it out if you can. #filmsky

On a day of extreme illegality and stupidity might I recommend the film A Little Prayer. Don’t worry - not religious - just a quiet deeply human film full of compassion and nuance. Stars David Strathairn. #filmsky

Winner of the FIFA Peace Prize no less. Truly Orwellian. #venezuela

Kate Winslet’s directorial debut Goodbye June has an amazing cast and is an earnest family drama. It’s a shame her son’s script is so mawkish and implausible. www.bina007.com/2025/12/nepo... #goodbyejune #filmsky

Peter Hujar’s Day is an odd fish of a film starring Ben Whishaw that captures something of late 70s queer culture in New York before AIDS devastated it. Out in the UK this weekend. #peterhujar #filmsky www.bina007.com/2025/12/huja...

New Nas and DJ Premier album is gold

MARTY SUPREME is a gonzo caper about a narcissistic arsehole who will exploit everyone and everything to fulfil his dream. This is full speed ahead, full commitment film-making. Josh Safdie and Marty Mauser are as one. Chalamet is great. www.bina007.com/2025/12/mart... #MartySupreme

Enjoying *none* of these numbers being right

I watched City of Lost Children tonight for the first time since seeing it the cinema 30 years ago. Holds up well in all its Gilliamesque craziness. Does it count as a Christmas movie? #filmsky
