The Cure at Austin City Limits 2013
I got freakin' soaked that night.
Re-run of currently watching
One of the best music doc i've ever watched. very good, leaves with question, not much answers, rather left questions. and what a strange dude Mr. Baker is.
QI on YouTube. Fry was talking about an animal "with an extraordinary organ in its mouth", and just as I'd formulated a fellatio joke in my head, he said the organ is quite like a penis.
Also, Sarah Millican and I seem to cackle inappropriately at the same things.
(I swear, most of my humour isn't based on genitals, but on puns; there just happen to be a lot of the latter about the former and their various applications)

Recently watched Seasons 1 and 2 of Twin Peaks, followed by the Fire Walk With Me film.
I'd only watched the first couple of episodes of season 1 when it was first broadcast sometime circa 1990 and tbh I thought it a pile of s**t, but having watched it all back now (in preparation for Season 3 in 2016! ) I have to say I really enjoyed it
The "Fire Walk With Me" film was utter cack though. None of the charm of the tv show (despite having appearances by Bowie and Chris Isaak) and by the end of it I was glad Laura was dead: she was such an annoying bint

A night at the cinema. Bloody brilliant movie, Mr. Keaton has ball to play in such movie. Great black humor.

Saw this yesterday. It's thoughtful, hilarious, and gorgeous. And I'm not normally into animation that gives people weird proportions. But it's magnificent. And I suppose it's even more fun if you know about Mexican culture (which I don't).

Gotthaaaaaam is on tonightt
The Missus and I are always incredibly exited on mondays. It's so engrossing.
Being a massive comic book reader, and a follower of the antics of batman for many years now, I gotta say I'm enjoying it more than those Christopher Nolan films. Anybody else watching?

Yeppers, I am following this & loving it immensley.
Really nice take on the villians-to-be & love how the pop up in the whole scheme of things as fairly normal people (except Oswald & Edward).
Wonder if Ivy will feature a bit more.

THIS. MOVIE.
Wonderful, hilarious, ridiculous, over-the-top, stupid space opera trash of the worst and most opulent kind.
I'm going to quote The Mary Sue:
Let’s start with the basics: this movie is not The Matrix. This movie is not Dune. This movie is not Star Wars, nor is it The Fifth Element. No, this movie is like if all of those movies plus the music video for the Backstreet Boys’ “Larger Than Life� and the really weird parts of the Mass Effect trilogy all got really drunk at a party and had a massive orgy while H.P. Lovecraft filmed it. That’s Jupiter Ascending.
The plot is this: the Wachowskis were given an extraordinary amount of money to make whatever the hell they wanted, and what they wanted to make is exactly what we all, secretly, deep down, want to make: the big-screen adaptation of that Stargate fanfic you wrote when you were fourteen that really went off the rails and began to inhabit its own universe, complete with original characters, wolf-men, and bees. That’s Jupiter Ascending.
I mean, I want to have a serious discussion about the film’s plot, but I honestly can’t. I can’t because it just doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter! What about the plot could possibly matter when part of it involves Mila Kunis as the reincarnation of an ancient space princess who falls in love with a Channing Tatum-shaped half-wolf hybrid angel alien with anti-gravity roller skates and a great debt to pay off? That’s Jupiter Ascending.[/i]

I think Edward is perfect. Riddler was always my favourite batman villain and holy crap have I been waiting for a good On-screen adaptation. The actor is a big fan of the comics IIRC, so he's gonna know how to pull it offPista wrote:Yeppers, I am following this & loving it immensley.

I think Ivy will be soon. Are you familiar with the comments the writers have given on her story ark?

Apparently ITV showed Carry On Henry on the same day as the Beeb had the series finale of Wolf Hall. Awesome scheduling (if true).

I wasn't sure at first, but started to warm to Della.
