17.05.2025 23:38 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I only just realised the song Mon Montha raves to in Andor S2 is the song playing in the brothel in the first ep of S1. Yes I started a rewatch.

17.05.2025 05:49 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Iβd love to know what the physical locations for much of Corusant on Andor were. Bits look like Canary Wharf but othersβ¦ no idea.

06.05.2025 20:24 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Other lists in the credits are alphabetical by surname (you know, the normal way). Itβs odd.
04.05.2025 04:33 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Weird thing but I just noticed the Thunderbolts* credits are listed alphabetically by first name - huh? I donβt mean the cast but the long list of VFX etc.
04.05.2025 04:32 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Thunderbolts* is good fun. A very solid, mid-tier MCU film that'll be a good rewatch. My only complaint would be the FX in one of the fight scenes, and the continued use of Bucky for comedy - just let him be the moody ex-assassin please. Also his hair is bad, bring back full Winter Soldier hair.

26.04.2025 09:29 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I remember thinking at the time that Black Widow was a bit of a low bar for Marvel. But itβs a lot better than much of what came after.
25.04.2025 07:53 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0You know what I would have loved, in the lead up to Thunderbolts*? A cinema screening of Black Widow. The only MCU I didnβt see on the big screen thanks to Covid.
25.04.2025 05:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Very underrated film.
19.04.2025 19:20 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Agreed. Quite a gear shift from the rest of the series but now I feel like I understand where we are heading.
17.04.2025 06:07 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Even this is confusing but a lot clearer than the version in the show. So much jargon it does my head in. But I'll give S3 another shot now. Thanks for this. I didn't remember any of the new characters from S2 tbh.
12.04.2025 00:07 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Iβm obsessed with the office set in The Studio. Stunning.
11.04.2025 21:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Rereading Rama II for the first time in about 30 years. Itβs a lot pulpier than I remembered.

10.04.2025 20:17 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Ditto. Rings of Power is much easier to follow.
07.04.2025 23:35 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I got ten minutes in and didnβt remember half the characters or have a clue what was happening. So I bailed and went back to rewatching Legion (which is prob equally as confusing tbh)
07.04.2025 23:03 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Tried to watch the third season of Wheel of Time and that recap was the most confusing word-salad I've seen in ages. I watched the first two seasons (didn't remember a great deal TBH) and it kinda made me give up. The writing assumed a great deal of knowledge. For fans only I guess.
07.04.2025 22:20 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0I love my Doctor Who blu rays. But I do wish theyβd stop wasting time & money shooting amateur dramatics for the trailers and docos and just got more blu rays out.
06.04.2025 08:36 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Rewatching Ant-Man & the Wasp (the best Ant-Man film) and you can see what was missing from Quantumania. The whole Honey I Shrunk the Kids fun element. It only works when weβre seeing familiar things at giant size etc.
06.04.2025 03:12 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0So it's a ****ing Transformers movie? Just a teaser so I still have hope, but I still think bringing it into "the real world" kinda misses the fun of Tron for me. Like when Jurassic Park let the dinosaurs out of the park... you lose the imagination because you're faced with reality.

26.03.2025 11:27 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0On the other side, I saw Black Bag last night and loved it - very stylish thriller. For the first time in ages I wanted a movie to be LONGER!
