Living the life

Only seen 4 out of 10 of the Oscar noms for best picture.

I’ve got some work to do…..

Did my first written exam since my undergrad. Here’s hoping that’s the last one I ever have to do.

On to my final module and then dissertation for my masters degree.

Who knew that doing a Master’s Degree alongside working full time, maintaining your fitness and having a social life could be so exhausting?

As for Nosferatu...

Whilst obviously brilliantly shot and directed, as you'd expect from Eggers, with a fantastic cast, I felt like it was a collection of well made moments that just never really came together for me.

I also think that Orlok was just a bit too much and over the top.

Saw A Real Pain the other day.

Thought it was really funny and enjoyable. Didn’t outstay it’s welcome, appropriately handled the Holocaust elements, had a great screenplay and two fantastic actors at the helm.

Eisenberg made a really good film.

They should have stuck to like, 3 songs instead of doing 5 or however many they did.

Pho Cue is top tier grub, love it there.

Better you than me!

I urge everyone to give Only Murders a watch if you’re thinking about it. We started it a couple weeks ago and are blowing through it. It is laugh out loud hilarious at times.

And it’s further proof, as if we needed it, that Martin Short is probably the funniest human being alive.

The Wrong Trousers is in my top 30 films of all time. Absolute masterpiece.

I'm sure Vengence Most Foul will be good, but I really hope it does not detract from how great Feathers McGraw is that film.

Part of me wishes they had just left him alone.

This kind of feels like the old days.

I like it.
