‘Ferociously strange’ sums it up very well. Not sure I recommend following it up with Martin Campbell’s film remake starring Mel Gibson, but the rejected John Corigliano score is an entertaining (and also quite strange) listen.

I wouldn’t say no to an Alan Silvestri score either!

Is this also a good excuse to eat a steak like Dolph Lundgren?

Piers Morgan is the incurable super-gonorrhoea of…what does he do, anyway?

I’ve posted this wonderful 1987 photo of Philip Glass & his cat by Ebet Roberts before…

"Tatort"-Titelmelodie-Komponist Klaus Doldinger ist tot – DW – 18.10.2025 Er schuf das Intro für die erfolgreichste Krimireihe der Republik - und schrieb sich unauslöschlich in die deutsche wie auch internationale Jazzgeschichte ein.

#KlausDoldinger was considered Germany's "King of Jazz." As the composer of the "Tatort" theme tune and the film score of "Das Boot" or "Die unendliche Geschichte," he immortalized himself among an audience of millions. He has now died at the age of 89.

A little session footage. youtu.be/uuifKU2NNfU?...

Revising the main title was absolutely the right decision. It just sounds so *alien* and makes the audience feel uneasy right from the outset.

Just in time for Treat Day! @brianbutterfield.bsky.social

May have gone crazy in Farmfoods. #sorrynotsorry

Hey @davidarnold.bsky.social, these seem like your kind of thing.

Not wearing headphones on the train and blasting your TikTok/Instagram trash at 6:45am should be punishable by being detrained. While the train is moving.

No. Nor does my fridge.

That’s dedication!

At the age of 77 Patricia Routledge ate Chichester cathedral.

The Jolly Fisherman tourism poster showing a jovial chubby guy skipping down a beach in his wellies with nary a care in the world. In this instance, everything has a reddish tinge, there's no beach or sea, just an expanse of red land under an equally red sky. The jolly fisherman is now Cohaagen from "Total Recall" (1990) whose head has swollen to alarming proportions as his eyes pop out of their sockets. The wording on the poster reads: "MARS IS SO BRACING".

From this day in 2024.
