Online queuing for London Film Festival tickets never fails to be low level anxiety inducing as one waits to see what crumbs have been left by the Patrons.

Finally got to see THE ODYSSEY at the IMAX in Leicester Square. Tickets cost £28 each. People on either side of us looking at their phones intermittently throughout the film. Message ends.

Is the word ‘stories’ the most overused at the moment? Advertisers and anyone keen to sound ‘authentic’ seems to cram it into every other sentence at the moment.

I may sound like an old fucker but I remember when Wimbledon was about being able to watch tennis without a team of commentators talking over each other and some courtside spy listening in and repeating back private conversations between coaches and players. Oh yeah and endless bloody statistics.

Someone - are you listening mainstream journalists? - needs to openly confront this man about this all his lies and falsehoods.; but happy for them to start with this one.

The same BBC who have not covered the story of the removal of Matt Goodwin, Reform campaign manager, a holocaust-denying Nazi who said he would "never touch a Jewish woman.”

Another great BBC ‘news’ headline. The lack of SEND funding has in the past brought many Councils to its knees. The previous administration did nothing apart from some formula tweaking. For 14 years. There is no ‘backlash’ in this story except for the editor’s catastrophising comments. Pathetic.

Amused that Maccy D’s aren’t able to use the theme from Friends in their big, er Friends TV/cinema promotion.

Call me an old git, but the Fiona and Rachel gloves off moment gave me a glimpse of @thetraitors.bsky.social going a bit Big Brother, which is slightly disappointing. I hope this doesn’t set a trend in the Castle.

I think you definitely needed to be a fan of Pavement to get something out of PAVEMENTS, but even then I’m scratching my head as to how it made a number of critics’ best of ‘25 lists. Didn’t get on with it at all.

Wondering how much someone got paid for providing the ambient sounds at the start of every @odeonftm.bsky.social programme. If it was per showing well done as it’s been going for over 10 years.

Overheard at the theatre while waiting for THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST to start: Punter 1: “Was Oscar Wilde actually a woman who, because of the times, had to write using a woman’s name?” Punter 2: “No, you’re thinking of George Orwell.” No further questions.

So here's the first episode of the first podcast from Dark Eyes of London covering the career of one of the most detested psychotronic directors of all time. Let's hope it encourages more people to check out his films, which are pretty much all in the public domain #podcasts #psychotronic #horror

Out of interest, how does this happen in terms of blog traffic?

I had to send some Postal Orders yesterday. Yes such things still exist but not only have they not changed the royal face on the front, the photo of the one they do have was taken in about 1960. Is there some arcane reason for this?

If there’s one thing extinct that you could resurrect etc etc.

Isn’t it time that action film trailers stopped using slowed down, slightly gothy covers of songs? That’s rhetorical by the way.

Adverts for people using AI on phones etc never include them using the words ‘please’ and/or ‘thank you’. We’re doomed.

With the news that Amazon have taken over the Bond franchise, is there any truth in the rumour that the first release is provisionally entitled DIAMONDS TAKE FOREVER?
