Sean Lennon / Les Claypool collaboration Claypool Lennon Delirium The video to this is **** mental!
-
I think it's even better than the first season. It's slightly more streamlined story-wise but in some ways that has helped, as we get to spend even more time with a smaller pool of characters. It's absolutely brilliant TV and knocking on the door of some of the best series ever.
-
Yep, Tulip is the only slight issue I have with it at the moment. Not Ruth Negga's performance as I think that's fine, but the book/TV show versions are poles apart, and I just way prefer the fractured, less 'sassy' Tulip from the books.
-
Yep, there's literally hundreds of horror/sci-fi movies that have references to his work but not that many actual adaptations. Re-Animator would probably be the most famous but even that has limited similarities to the written story. There is a 2005 film of the Call of Cthulhu but I haven't managed to watch that yet. Apparently, Call Girl of Cthulhu is great fun too (not even kidding )
-
It's an incredibly divisive movie. I found it vastly overrated and ultimately quite irritating as I thought it bit off a little more than it could chew. Yet from a technical standpoint it was superb (as is all of Malick's work). Certainly not one i'll watch again in any great hurry.

I'm assuming that it will be a massively expanded version of the Gwent from the Witcher game as I thought that was pretty boring tbh. Hearthstone is a way superior game, and has a ridiculous amount of depth so they'll have a fair amount of catching up to do.
-
Watched that again not so long ago as I was watching anything with strong Lovecraft references. It has it's moments (the bike etc) but it hasn't aged particularly well and was way more effective when I first saw it at the cinema. Probably the last decent film Carpenter made too. I suppose The Ward wasn't too shabby but nothing touches his early work.
-
Trying to go after the Hearthstone crowd I would imagine. It's a decent idea seeing how incredibly successful that (HS) has been.
-
Yeah but you don't know the real Pearson.

Someone has deciphered Sansa's letter:

Making my way (very) slowly through the second series at the moment. As i've said many times on here before - it's up there with the best TV ever.
-
Interesting choice of genre there Pete. I would have gone for Post-Punk or even alternative rather than Electronic. (nice list though)
-
Ep Two of Preacher was excellent and...

I haven't actually. I'll give it a whirl
-
Very enjoyable documentary. More about the fantastic team that was assembled rather than Clough, which was fine as i've read/seen pretty much everything about him anyway. It was also another reminder of how much more I enjoyed football in those days compared to now
-
Yeah, I got into him through his work with Shane Meadows. Loss of a great talent at such an early age
-
Finally got around to watching the Directors cut of this Giallo classic. For some reason i'd only ever seen the version with 20 or so minutes cut out so it's nice to see it in full (and the Blu ray print is excellent). The extra bits include some very strange scenes of oddball humour, which could be misconstrued as ill-fitting but to me they just made the whole experience even more bonkers and surreal. Anyone who's a fan of Argentos work who hasn't seen this cut should get on it asap

How does she cope with the dialogue?

Blimey Alex, do you rattle when you walk? Joking aside, hope you feel better soon fella
-
I only drink alcohol that I like the taste of. Surely, among the hundreds of different beers/wines etc on sale there must be something that you like the taste of and gets you drunk?
-
That's exactly what I did. Fair to say I haven't regretted it for a second.
-
I watched it again at the back end of last year, I tend to watch the whole Apartment trilogy over a couple of days from time to time. I don't think any of it's original power has diminished tbh. In fact iirc it's original reviews on release were good, but it's only over the years that it's been re-evaluated and elevated to classic status. I think it's bloody brilliant tbh and the 'this is no dream! this is really happening!' line is one of my favourites of all time.
-
Seriously though. It's a **** masterpiece. The Apartment Trilogy are all very good movies, but RB is the standout amongst three very strong films. The direction, acting (particularly from Farrow who is astonishing) is all absolutely top notch and it has that wonderfully unsettling vibe (the little touches of off-beat humour are great) which just grows and grows until the brilliant finale. A bona-fide classic in mine and indeed many others opinion.
