Walking around London listening to this oldie @schoolofmovies.bsky.social

One of our favourite episodes on one of our favourite films; The adventure masterpiece Raiders of the Lost Ark cost just $20 million to make, relative to Dial of Destiny's $387 million! Truly it was another age of filmmaking. schoolofmovies.podbean.com/e/raiders-of...

A huge thank you to everyone who has been reposting to get this fledgeling Bluesky account for an ancient movie podcast off the ground. You all rock!

Turns out Trump is Brad Wesley from Road House. Should’ve realised earlier really.

In the office today then down to London for two days. I shall miss the quiet of my office in my house.

New @electroniceggs.bsky.social podcast is up from the usual places. Enjoy

Watched Fountain of Youth over the weekend, that might be one of the worst movies I’ve seen in years. So derivative that it forgot to do anything of its own, most of the budget must have gone on one set piece as the rest of the movie felt constrained. Krasinski (I really like him usually)

@pablo0151.bsky.social You will really like COD Black Ops 6 campaign, it’s from Raven and it is not the usual COD game, it’s very much a Raven Software game.

Oh Destiny 2, why do I keep going back to you?!

So do Nintendo give Game Freak a shitty budget for art direction and visuals for Pokémon games? As Beast of Reincarnation seems to have a healthy budget.

Still play the PS1 game on Vita regularly! What a great game.

R-Type Delta: HD Boosted announced for PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, Switch, and PC Publishers City Connection and Clear River Games have announced R-Type Delta: HD Boosted for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC (Steam). It will launch in 2025.

Managers change but England are always awful to watch.

Really can’t wait to play LUMINES Arise in VR. And that new Thief looks promising too. I wish Sony gave a shit about VR2, it’s such a good bit of kit.

PSA — Mr Driller DrillLand (Siwtch) is ON SALE FOR £1.59 right now! www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/...

Happy Ridge Racer Arcade Archives day to those who celebrate.

That was the first good State of Play. Absolutely loads I want to play in there.

In London and for some reason I end up with my dad’s north London accent, happens every time I’m here yet I have never sounded like that anywhere else I go.

State of Play prediction, PlayStation Portal Pro launching in October for £400, OLED screen, 256gb SSD plays PS4 digital games natively but streams your PS5 digital games.

Latest episode of @electroniceggs.bsky.social is up talking about May 85/95/05/15. Second time we recorded it as we lost the first recording.

Surely Jobe Bellingham would be better served playing a season in the premier league then going to Dortmund?

Applying for acting and modelling work is more nerve wracking than sending off your CV for a real job.

If anyone is looking for something to play on that Switch 2 later this week, you should check out Lost Horizon a superb point and click style adventure for just £1.88 www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/... Lost Horizon | Nintendo Switch download software | Games | Nintendo UK

I’d imagine I’m the only person playing this on a Sunday afternoon in 2025

Wow, 5-0. The pace of PSG is just too much.

Inter really are awful. How did they get past Barca?

Looking forward to the champions league final tonight, not sure who I want to win as I dislike both sides.
