I’m excited to see Paul Greengrass's film The Uprising. I believe it to be about Wat Tyler and the historically significant 1381 Peasants’ Revolt. The film’s international marketing team has bizarrely and anachronistically renamed it The Rise of Robin Hood🤦‍♂️ www.theguardian.com/film/2026/au...

Marketing meltdown: why has Andrew Garfield’s new film suddenly added Robin Hood?
Paul Greengrass drama The Uprising was supposed to be a historical epic about the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 – but a strange new campaign has inserted a surprising figure

Adding a small Welsh dragon right in the centre of the union jack is such a missed opportunity. That flag would go hard.

Almost certainly the best thing I was ever told about owls was when I met an owl handler at an owl sanctuary and he told me that the wild owls who lived near the sanctuary worried about the tame show owls there and sometimes stopped by to leave them shrews and mice as presents.

Not only do I remember Ultraviolet, I just rewatched it a few weeks ago. It remains the best depiction of vampires ever, I think. I'd love a restored new release, but you can find the DVD for a couple of quid pretty easily (which I recommend you do!).

It's coming up to 19 years since this masterpiece and it's ridiculous how often I quote the lyrics from the Still Alive song as I go about my work. "This was a triumph..." #Portal www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6lj...
Amber text on a black screen from the music video to "Still Alive", the theme tune from the Portal game. The text on screen says: "Dear 'Subject Name Here'. I'm not even angry. I'm being so sincere right now."
