Love a good heist.

God damn. I finished it back in the day but been stuck on the Cop Land mission for months now on the remaster. I go back every now and then to have another try, but the police are just stupidly aggressive and my car keeps exploding!

They'd only have to wait outside the curry house and would find you soon enough 😆

It's okay. I preferred the book but it's a perfectly watchable movie.

Yes, this. I always think it's an odd example to use to name the thing after.

This isn't an opinion, you're just saying a thing. 🤷

There are much more prominent examples though, even just keeping to movie quotes.

"Play it again, Sam".
"Do you feel lucky, punk?"

Etc.

Imagine being skint but treating yourself to a donut once a week and that's somehow being scorned upon. Ugh.

Weird how Binding Of Isaac has never, ever been in a Switch sale.

Or this. I mean, I bet there were loads of photos of her available where she was wearing clothes.

This is definitely the start of a real life zombie apocalypse.

Boiling Point was another incredible single shot film (and coincidentally also starred Stephen Graham), I don't think it would have been nearly as effective if it had been shot traditionally.

Yeah I preferred him when he played bass in Fields Of The Nephilim.

I believe Mr C claimed this was based on a drawing his son did.

If you had to look it up on Wikipedia you're not allowed to correct someone. That's just the rule, sorry.

That's what he said, yeah.

He knew the relationship was over when you used the word "ick" in casual conversation.

No More Heroes is great on Switch, played it for the first time last year and really enjoyed it.

It's mad, but at least they don't seem to be in the middle of films like on Netflix. (Dropped all my plans to the lowest ad-supported tier recently).

I'm ok with reading before sleep, it's podcasts I always have to rewind by about half an hour the next day 😆

16 to 21. Golden years. In some ways. Much less so in others.

I think it's on Sky but I've been watching it on BeeTV (dodgy Android app) to avoid the adverts. I love ITYSL but this is better as 'a show' I think. Really enjoyed Detroiters, too.

Prior to this year, I was probably 95% non-fiction. Hardly ever read it at all. But I bought myself a new Kindle to take on holiday in May and have read 14 (fiction) books since then. I'm finding it a much better 'before sleep' activity than phone scrolling and loved getting back into reading.

Have you watched The Chair Company yet? It's *excellent*.

It's not much better in the UK. If you want Premier League, NBA, F1 and boxing you need about 3 different subscriptions. I miss the 1980s when it was all on free TV 😆

That's crazy. You're right, the League Pass isn't much more and you get everything. Can't see why anyone would pay €20 a month for so few games.
