A middle-aged nerd from the UK. I like films and write about them, sometimes for Film Stories or my blog.
Have a great day.

There was a director a while back, Uwe Boll, who managed to get the rights to several video games and made bad films out of all of them.
One of them was Far Cry, being that old, it’s based on the first game.
I got the idea because I logged back into my matrix account after months and months of doing nothing with it! LOL
For a planet on the edge of the galaxy where nothing happened…a LOT has happened there!
I generally don’t like musicals except for Enchanted, which I attribute to Disney kind of making fun of itself. However I’ve never seen a proper stage musical and as BTTF is one of my favourite films ever, I went to see the musical earlier this year.
I can’t deny I was really entertained all the way through but I had no idea there was going to be about five minutes of “normalcy” before another song kicks in. I think there’s around 14 songs in total.
Part of the magic is what is achieved on stage for sequences like the DeLorean driving around trying to get up to speeds of 88mph. I feel some of that would be lost in a transition to film because, in a way, that already exists.
Wow. That’s a lot of new films probably heading to PVOD really quite fast.
Jesus Christ, both!! 😆 But only finger tight. Sod you bastards who get the screwdrivers out! That’s overkill. 😁
As a Soundgarden / Audioslave fan, it’s always going to be Chris Cornell with “You know my name” from Casino Royale. It really took me by surprise when I saw the film for the first time. Wasn’t expecting a rock track opening.
I think you misread it. £398,386.
What’s on the poster is actually the “tongue” of a Graboid, the strange worm creatures of the series. In fact they have three “tounges”.
I’ll never forget seeing this for the first time on UK telly, and then again when I bought it on VHS and discovering all the footage that was cut! 😆
So many “what could have been” moments with Blomkamp. He was going to make the Halo movie, Alien 5 that would’ve been a direct sequel to Aliens, and he was also going to reboot Robocop.
Watched The Batman which I hadn’t seen since the cinema viewing. Forgotten how good the film was. I primarily watched i in preparation for viewing The Penguin.
I tried to watch Once Upon a Time in Hollywood but gave up after an hour. It just wasn’t for me and I found it quite boring just watching actors playing actors.
Instead, I went to YouTube and watched something recommended to me, Tom Hank’s Electric City. It was originally streamed on Yahoo! back in 2012, and someone has saved it and upscaled it to 1080p.
It is an animated story of a post apocalyptic civilisation that has rebuilt to the stages of having electricity again. Everything is hard-wired. The city is under strict control by a secret group and the wired radio service provides entertainment and information and laws about living in the city.
However, a group of people have developed wireless radio and is preparing to start a rebellion.
My description is rather naff, but I recommend it. It’s a shame it didn’t go any further, as it ends on a point where you wish a season 2 existed. [YouTube Link]
Don’t forget three seasons of Ash vs Evil Dead afterwards!
Unfortunately, the cost of creating Manhunter vs the amount of viewers it pulled in was why Netflix finished the show.
Release the Lord & Miller cut of Solo! 😁
I love Prey so much, in my head, it’s almost as good as the original. I had such high hopes for Romulus and was left feeling so disappointed.
Looking forward to Badlands. Don’t let me down Dan!
I enjoyed Ready Player One at the time even though some of it was just ridiculous. Re-enacting Ferris Buellers Day Off for example.
Armada, Cline’s next book was awful. So many references on every page, I stopped reading. I remember a line that was something like, “my mum wouldn’t let me past, like Gandelf in the mines of Moria.” Sheesh! Let it go!
I fully read Ready Player Two but the guy has no story telling abilities. Every time the main character encounters a problem, e.g. I need a level 49 sword to get past this problem, but there’s no way to get one, it was always solved with the same solution, “oh, I own the game and all Admins have level 1000 swords because we do!”
I think I reached my limit when he managed to shove in a Shaun of the Dead reference just because he mentioned a cricket bat!
Now do Acme Vs Coyote!
I have discovered today that someone bootlegged the trailer as shown back at a D23 event in August but Disney have been busy taking down any copy I can find.
