Man cannot live on Albion in the Orient alone.

I’d like to remain far away from his spawn point

The coyness (including presumably encouraging reviewers not to reveal ‘the twist’) reminded me of Sweeney Todd (no publicity saying that was a musical). There’s a point when it starts to feel like you have no confidence in the sort of movie you’ve made?

And/or because they’ve spent a load of cash on AI and need to find a way to justify that.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Agreed! If you start your movie with a clear indication that you don’t give a toss, why should an audience want to stay with you?

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I mean, drone aerial shots are lazy enough.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

What punishment could be expected by someone walking out on the pod?

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

We went out specifically to go to a Little Chef then went home again.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Looking forward to this! I’d be fascinated by what modern doctors think of the more…..dubious elements of their profession’s history.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I’m assuming ‘let loose’ is unrelated to the dick jokes?

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Yes, not a direct equivalent I’m sure but I wondered if some themes might resonate. Apologies if I misread that.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

What was the pod’s most dispiriting school trip?

010

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I’d be interested in a comparison to, say, France right now?

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Thanks so much for this! I’m not even sure it qualifies as a twist? More a (rubbish) framing device that doesn’t deserve the reverence granted to it by other reviewers. And as well as the comparisons you mention, I did wonder if it was more evidence that Hamlet is a pretty deft piece of writing?

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

And the fight at the end is badly done. So very very badly done.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

A lot of bits that (I assume unintentionally) reminded me of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

I’ve been going Danish to satisfy my yarn needs

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

That’s very definitely progress! And I tend to imagine all critics as JJ Hunsecker. They need to maintain the tough image.

020

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

A couple of snitty words with no further explanation provided? Not worthy of any agonising. (Although if it were me, I’d know that and agonise anyway!)

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Windows to the soul. Or, in this case, absence of soul.

010

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I wonder if there’s an uncanny valley effect here? You may not be able to put your finger on why it looks artificial, but it absolutely does.

110

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I feel your disappointment. It’s valid.

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Can you give me a rough timescale for when to expect It?

100

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Release the pool of fire you cowards!

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

I’d never have known given how good you are at them, but as an introvert myself I know how much energy it can take to put yourself out there. Time to recharge is always ok.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

I saw Adam Curtis say something similar, along the lines of it promises you the future but in fact just gives you a piece of the past.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Does the permissibility of a hoof to the bonce only apply to Martinez, or does it extend to anyone from Argentina’s World Cup squad?

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

Can we hear about those boring admin reasons in excruciating detail?

100

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Do we think it was a solo operation, or he was abandoned by his mates who got through the vinegar strokes just in time?

100

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

What a way to go, though, the ultimate danger wank

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Are my hopes of someone beating Derby’s record already over for another year, or can Spurs keep the flame alive?

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

And don’t be obtuse

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

That quote really ties the movie together

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Wondering if a year in the championship to rebuild might have been a blessing.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

@footballweekly.bsky.social Content idea!! Max to do a blind ranking of contributors to the pod?

000

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

Now imaging said influencers getting together (presumably via instagram?) to compare scars.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

The absolute worst kind of shitbucket

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

I’m remembering the end credits being him stoically trundling down a busy road in a C5 and a massive HP lorry tearing past?

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

I mean…they’re not insects?

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

It absolutely rules!! Everything about it is 20% better than it need be. The switch to almost horror in the last few minutes is chilling.

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

By what mechanism is FIFA able to stop people criticising its processes and its governance?

010

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Wait, what? I have to share the jackpot?

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

I find myself wondering whether said beast has both a monkey tail and a fish tail, or just the one tail?

010

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

I’m seeing at least two serious historians who also look fabulous? (Sorry Robert)

Tombo @tomboh.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

I love Endeavour! Such an arch sense of humour, I particularly remember little nods to Withnail, Blackadder and The Day Today.
