Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 02/12/2024My favourite beer in the world in my favourite bar in the world. Not a bad way to spend a Monday afternoon 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 28/11/2024This will be my 13th time at the convention. I am indecently excited at the prospect of walking around Target again. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 28/11/2024Bag packed. Ropey horror films downloaded to phone for the flight. It’s off to @chicagotardis.bsky.social I go! 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 27/11/2024I’m making steady progress through the ‘Tremors’ 7 film box set. Just finished Tremors 3: Back to Perfection. It’s a steady downhill path though…. 011
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Laptop is put away and out of office is on. 13 days off now… 020
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Having inadvertently watched the prequel yesterday (Sister Death), today it is time for Veronica. It’s only been on my Netflix watch list for 5 years… 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 22/11/2024I’ll just tip the pieces out ready for tomorrow, I said, 2.5 hours ago…. 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Just had a meeting drop into my calendar for 3:30pm. Who are these people? Who seriously wants to start a meeting at 3:30? 100
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 03/12/2023Yesterday’s rash purchase while I was supposed to be Christmas shopping for other people. In my defence, how could I walk past that and not buy it? 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 01/12/2023Time to waste the afternoon on some top quality science fiction. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 01/12/2023Unpacking some of the figures I picked up in Chicago. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 01/12/2023Kicking off December with Chicken Little (for my sins). If nothing else, I’ve certainly had my moneys worth out of Disney+ this year. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 01/12/202369 films watched in November, 16 in the cinema. 23 Disney Animation Classics done last month, leaving 8 to go in December to finish that particular exercise. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 29/11/2023Remembered really enjoying these three films when they were first on, so sitting down to give them another go. The cast really is a who’s who of British talent. ‘This is the North, where we do what we want’ 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 29/11/2023Having seen The Star Beast on my phone, my laptop and on an overhead projector screen, I am finally seeing it in HD on the TV. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 28/11/2023This trip over, so having a hotel lobby day waiting to fly home. I’ve secured a comfy chair, table and power socket. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 26/11/2023Taking advantage of being this side of the pond to see ‘Priscilla’ tonight. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 26/11/2023Stood in a queue behind a man with a very loud voice who is horribly mis-explaining Blake’s 7 to two other people. 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 24/11/2023Was up at 0430 this morning, so coffee featuring heavily today. Day 1 of Chicago TARDIS has some interesting panels. Mysterious Theatre doing Day of the Daleks this evening - should be good fun. 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 24/11/2023Was still surprisingly awake on arrival yesterday so did a double bill of ‘Napoleon’ and ‘Wish’. Gave them both the same 3.5/5 rating for very different reasons. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 22/11/2023Flying to Chicago tomorrow for the Chicago TARDIS Convention. First time since 2019, so very excited to get back into it. 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 20/11/2023Using my time off to intersperse my Big Disney Animation Catch Up with a mop up all the films that I’ve made a note of in my phone saying ‘must watch that soon’ So today’s viewing has been Disney’s Dinosaur followed by Jeune & Jolie - a double bill I guarantee has never been done before. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 19/11/2023Black Friday? Mrs A away? A relative of an old friend returns to the house 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 19/11/2023Off out today for some culture. Going to the Young V&A for the ‘From Myth to Manga’ exhibition and then to see ‘Anatomy of a Fall’. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 18/11/2023The new @fatalattractpod.bsky.social pod has prompted me to finally watch Cruising - a Friedkin I’ve never seen before. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 18/11/2023Arrived home to a Starkiller on the doorstep! 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 18/11/2023Very pleasantly surprised by THG:TBOSAS. A bit too long and some clunky call backs (or call forwards) but not the horror show I was expecting. Rachel Zegler very good - and a couple of decent songs are always a bonus. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 18/11/2023It’s an early start for me after dropping Mrs A at the airport. Kicking off 2 weeks of leave with bacon sandwich and then a virtuous walk into town for the 0900 screening of THG-TBOSAS (a catchy title if ever I wrote one. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 17/11/2023I’m embracing the horror. Children in Need is on - at least until the Doctor Who bit. 110
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 17/11/2023Must stop going to Forbidden Planet every time I’m in town. They’re pretty well supplied at the moment though. 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 16/11/2023‘A Disturbance in the Force’ was a fun documentary delving into the circumstances that created the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special. I do enjoy these deep cut niche documentaries that you get around Star Wars. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 16/11/2023Sitting opposite someone who just mentioned speaking to the Deputy Consul in Kreblekistan. I think he’s confused. 110
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 16/11/2023Off to the Prince Charles after work today for a wild double bill! 100
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 12/11/2023Tonight’s film was The Amazing Spider-Man 2. I remain a fervent apologist for this film 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 12/11/2023Wondering when the time to take over the dining table will be right… Probably not on a Sunday 130
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 11/11/2023But then Tomahawk for tea. A disgraceful slab of meat. 110
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 11/11/2023An extremely untidy Chocolate Cake today. 010
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 10/11/2023I had a great time with The Marvels - but it left me wondering who it was for…. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 10/11/2023Will be taking advantage of an early afternoon finish later to see The Marvels. Not sure what to expect with this one, have been suffering a bit of MCU fatigue. 000
Jacques LeFebret @jacqueslefebret.bsky.social · 10/11/2023After a few months away from the other place I’ve washed up here (courtesy of @auditorreality.bsky.social ). Will resume howling into the void here! 130
