Start dressing like this and you might attract him?

Published a bunch of songs from the wrestling band and then officially left. It’s weird that this is the first time I’ve ever left a band that is going to keep going. That’s new. I’m quite proud of the first 6 tracks. Have a listen if you want. thesmallpackages.bandcamp.com

82/100 Elevation: Post apocalyptic world where people have to live above 8000ft because of monsters attack them below 8000ft. The only annoying thing is it finishes at the point where the action could have kicked into high gear. Sequel primed in the post credit scene and everything.

Finishing things that have been hanging around for nearly 2 years is a big win!

81/100 Shaun the Sheep - The Beast of Mossy Bottom: This is a very clever kids movie, which is exactly what you’d expect from Aardman. Movie references constantly, but in the clever way that doesn’t get in the way of a fun story. Fun watch after work on a Friday night.

80/100 Pressure: This is one of those movies that you can absolutely judge by the trailer and the component parts. I can see someone might not enjoy Andrew Scott’s stoic performance, when he lets the emotions out it gives the performance so much weight. Brendan Fraser is a class act too.

It’s not very often my overly critical brain will let me think, I’ve worked on this and it’s fucking awesome. Managed it today!

79/100 Walk of Shame: Elizabeth Banks on good form in a fun and easy watch comedy for a Saturday night. Great and familiar supporting cast prop up a decent 90 minutes. I will always side with a movie happening in real time or at least close to real time.

79/100 The Art of Self Defence: I don’t know if any was asking for Jesse Eisenberg to star in a dark/black comedy version of the karate kid, but it’s out there if you need it. Biggest take away, Eisenberg went for playing weirdos in their 20s to weirdos in their 30s.

I need a hot key that automatically types: Thanks, Michael It’s not the act of typing that is the problem, it’s typing my own name reliably!

Speed running a cover is taking up a lot of my brain space. It’s kinda tiring. Need to keep on it though

2026 really hates us. I’ve got things I should be doing but the news about Chad Gilbert has just knocked the wind out of me. Fuck cancer in every single way possible.

77/100 Runner: This one is an acceptable 5.5/10. If you look at its component parts it lives up to them. I’ve watched other buddy movies with Alan Ritchson and t his is another one. Will I watch it again? No. He will make something similar again soon enough. Didn’t rob me of 90minutes either.

76/100 Office Uprising: Someone watch Office Space and Shaun of the Dead and asked if they could be mashed together? The answer is yes and it’s a lot of fun. The rom-zom-com is a niche genres, but a fantastic one. Lots of familiar actors in the cast that make you think, where have I seen them?

Thank you to all at The Bunkhouse, Swansea. You were amazing on a rainy Sunday night. It was an honour to share a stage with Elm Tree Circle, Handle This, and SadCastles. Next up for us is the small matter of recording our debut EP. Let’s do it! 💪 📸 Josh BT #LithiumKicks

75/100 The Day the Earth Blew Up: After the success of coyote vs acme I found myself looking up what has been going on in the looney tunes world and was greeted by this. It’s a fun movie length cartoon that does all the looney tunes things. Ideal Sunday morning viewing.

74/100 The Incomers: It’s not very often I watch something that is so weird it’s hard to even explain. Second movie of the year based on a remote Scottish island. This one didn’t have Jason Statham in it. It did have people acting like sea gulls. That’s it.

It’s dawned on me that getting my left elbow tattooed on the weekend was the last of the major/useable space gaps on my arms. It’s been 5 years of trying, but I’m actually feeling close to my arms being finished. What a feeling!

73/100 Mr. Right: Sam Rockwell, Anna Kendrick and Tim Roth star in a movie that attempts to be equal parts rom-com and action movie and succeeds at it...this combination was pretty much made for me to enjoy! It's no life changer, but it certainly is an easy one to enjoy!

72/100 Coyote vs Acme: After watching this, I hope whoever decided to not release it was given a stern talking to. It was loads of fun from start to finish, obvious comparisons to Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but also not valid at all. Distinctly Looney Tunes humour is present throughout.

Wrestling has been really good to me this weekend. I'm really happy about that.

71/100 Mutiny: Jason Statham is on a boat. Everything else that happened is exactly what you think. However no one was thrown overboard to their death and it probably should have been called Stowaway. Overall, still a fun movie.

Things that absolutely weren't on my 2026 bingo card was discovering Paris Jackson's (Michael daughter) music. It sounding like Phoebe Bridger with bits of the Cure thrown in and it being one of my records of the year.

70/100 Exit Protocol: This movie poster doesn't have the star of the movie on it. Dolph Lundgren and Michael Jai White are not the leads, which is a bit of a let down. There was enough guns and violence for that not to matter at 11pm on a Friday night. Not a recommendation but not horrible.

Michael Partridge @defydesigns.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
69/100 The End of Oak Street: The wonderful mix of 70s Sci-fi and horror is absolutely incredible. The score reminds me of Planet of the Apes, the suspense reminds me of Jaws.... Honestly this might be my movie of the summer. Absolutely going for a second viewing at the cinema.

Michael Partridge @defydesigns.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
68/100 Only God Forgives: The follow up to Drive that I've avoided because of the mixed reviews at release. I can see why some people love the slow, hyper style of this, it's truly beautiful. But there just wasn't enough substance. It wasn't clear a character was a cop until the third act!

New lightroom update. Unsurprisingly, things that used to happen instantly, now require thinking time.

67/100 The Bouncer: JCVD is the king of crappy martial arts movies. This is not that at all. This is him trying to do something Statham-esque and kinda missing the mark. It would have been great set in East London with the same story. Whoever was in the final mix and ADR shouldn't get hired again.

How does Refused's The Shape of punk to Come still sound like it was made in the future? The album is literally 28 years old!

A friend asked me to try and fix something on his website. I can say without a shadow of a doubt, this is why people hate wordpress. They have a nightmare of a backend with 1000s of options and no clarity to make some changes. This shit offends me and everything I've done as a developer.
