For once in my life, my timing seems impeccable. What a night to have finally watched Conclave. #filmsky

Was very funny, definitely more comedy than horror, but that's no bad thing.

Didn't get to the big screen this week, but it was a solid 3* week at home, and you should never underestimate the joy in a 3* film. #filmsky

Another! Mother!

A strong end to January at the cinema this week. #filmsky

The most fun I've had with a 'triple A' title in a while. Absolutely nails the aesthetic of the best of the films, plays brilliantly, looks and sounds amazing, has a really enjoyable story and great characters. Recommended for everyone, but an absolute no brainer if you're on games pass.

Well, that's one way to start a Sunday morning. Difficult to nail down a description - in gaming terms it's very much its own beast, but it's like a feature length mix Big Night Out, the best of Boosh and (adult) Aardman quality detail and background jokes. It had me from the opening question!

Ok thanks. How was yours? Ok thanks. How was yours? Ok thanks. How was yours? Ok thanks. How was yours? Ok thanks. How was yours?

As ever, this yearly list is a great tool to find the gems you missed...

I continue to be deeply moved by this statement to the heavens by President Carter.

Sorry Lyra.

Not sure what is says about ones social standing when the dog's christmas card tally is now equal to mine.

Christmas has arrived and drunkenly thrown up all over the house, the dog and me.

Yes, I'm going to sound like an old man whinging, but I accept it, nay, embrace it. 'Splitting the G'. Fuck the fuck off you narcissistic, posturing tossers. ‘Everybody Is Drinking Guinness.’ We Know Why. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/03/d...

I don't know how someone as angst ridden, world weary and generally just as twatty as me managed to have a kind, polite and generally lovely child, but I did. And she's definitely mine, before anyone asks...

If i have to eat my words, I will, but I'm really looking forward to what Barry Jenkins does with Mufasa. The prospect of the raw emotion of Moonlight and Beale street in a fucking state of the art animation is surely something to relish.

Airplane, Top Secret, Hot Shots and Naked Gun played a huge part in my formative years and very little makes me laugh more all these years later. Thanks Jim Abrahams.

For a variety of reasons that nobody gives a shit about, I haven't done this for a month, so I'm dumping the rest down now. 14/20... The challenge is to choose 20 movies that have greatly influenced you. One film per day, for 20 days. No explanations, no reviews, just posters…ACTION! #filmsky

Downloaded Balatro to my phone. Huge mistake. The sliver of my social life that remained is now gone.

Best part of 30(!!!!) years after seeing the Fugees in Manchester, saw them again last night. 17 year old me wouldn't believe he'd one day be doing the same thing with his wife, or that he managed to even find someone who'd consider marrying him. Or how fucking old he got!
