You are so on your own for that. I am not getting dragged into a fight between the Goddesses of Strategy and Love and the literal Queen of the Gods. That way lies curses and wars and probably the end of the world.

And the award for the Most Not Like Anything I Expected It To Be Film of the Year goes to Hope. I mean, I went in knowing @blcagnew.bsky.social loves it and it's Korean, so that's not a lot to go on, but still. Every time you think you have that one down, it comes back with something else.

So it turns out that the author of that "Harry Potter is raised by Tony Stark and basically revolutionizes the entire wizarding world using his brain not magic" fanfic is a nutcase too. Whodathunkit?

Genuine question for the Americans seeing this that have watched Shaun the Sheep 3: do you know what a Womble is? (Just one for the many, many delights found in Beast of Missy Bottom).

Just had a thought: blowing the relay in Arrival. Presumably it's slaughtered just about everyone in about ten billion miles, yes, but it also means that whatever ending you choose, if there's any reapers or people there, they don't get synthesized or controlled or destroyed, because no relay. Huh

So I've just seen that Coyote Vs ACME and K-Pop Demon Hunters are dropping in blu-ray the same day. Now that is an absolute doozy of a double-bill.

Koop Demon Hunters finally has a release date! November 9! Bugger. That's the week after my week off.

Coyote Vs ACME. holy shit, that is a perfect film. I have not laughed so much watching a film in years. The title character has limited signs but doesn't need words, because you know exactly what he's saying. The mods and shoutouts are wonderful. and the crescendo moment will go down in history.

So filmmakers have some sort of time-based dimension manipulation powers, right? Or at least the good ones? Because no fucking way is End of Oak Street 99 minutes dead. There's way too much of it for 99, it's at least 109. I mean that in a good way. Although McGregor needs to wash that accent out.

So if No Way Home takes place after Endgame's 5 year skip, and Brand New Day takes place four years after that, then either Ned is a retro, physical media fan (he has a PS5 Pro, which would be Very Old Indeed by this point), or there's a technology lull in the MCU that hit consumers hard.

I am so glad you asked, I have a list: Edam, emental, mozzarella, wensleydale, double Gloucester, red Leicester, gouda, and yes I have put all of these and probably more on the same pizza and yes it was Bloody Lovely.

I have bought Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief... 5 times I think. The one with the shit cover in 2010 now probably burnt by a former friend, Kindle, Graphic Novel, the new hardback 20th anniversary edition, and as part of a box set for the first series for my niece's birthday.

Been in the process of transferring my tech over to the new house of late, just got the telly sorted today, hence I'm A Behind on certain releases (STFU about Aang and Star Trek, I'm waiting on a PS4 controller tomorrow to run AP and D+). That said: Mr Cavill, your Cumberbatch is showing.

OK, this is a rare one, because retail in film is usually too boring for much of anything, but the scene in Ocean's 8 where Bullock rips off a department store in a matter of moments. CALL. A FUCKING. SUPERVISOR. YOU DUMB BINT. You got fired literally five minutes after she left because you didn't.

Got Jonathan Sims' The Burn Line today, but seeing as his fiction is far too close to reality for comfort regarding the heat, I'm saving it for a bit, hopefully when it's cooler.

If there's one scene that Toy Story 5 needs more than any other, it's one that shows Bonnie's mum going round to those A-hole dickwad "friends" of Bonnie's and showing their parents, in a tirade of "your kids fucked with my kid and if you don't do something about it I'm gonna!" their arseholery.

It has occurred to me that "I have the power" and "I am Moana" have the same rhythm, and now I'm wondering just how good a He-Man musical would be.

So you want to take an idea, turn that into a script, pre-produce (i.e. build the sets, get the cast, the equipment to film it all in the first place), film it, and post-produce it in less than six months? good luck with that, my guy.

Mass Effect 2 is the biggest pile of bollocks in video games. Easiest difficulty? Still die in seconds. I've only got to get to this pissing com tower and I can move on to the one game in this pissing series that actually managed to have decent combat that didn't feel like bullshit in!

The next murder thriller - people are dying, and the only thing connecting them is a popular media franchise. It falls on DCI Bonnie Cartwright and her team of screw ups in the Metropolitan police to solve the case, before the premiere becomes the franchise's finale.

It's a TV movie, but The Greatest Store in the World. Single mum of two is made homeless at Christmas, they camp in the local department store and ultimately stop Ricky Gervais and Mark Williams from robbing it.
