I think I dug it as a teen because it was the closest thing at that time to a Doom movie. Well, even after the Doom movie, I think Ghosts Of Mars was the closest thing we had to a Doom movie.

I have. Sorry everyone.

Heh - this looks pretty good actually. I don't care for the old show, and I never watched the other animated 60s revival (though I readily accept that some of Batman's best material is animation), but this seems to find a way to take the silliness of the 60s show and its simple morality etc, and turn it into an…

The thing is, these "noisy" displays of racism are very useful to powerful racists, too. The racist machine is far more sophisticated than to require these brazen outward statements of race-hate. Racists generally know to move underground, and they speak in coded language and innuendo to make their speech sound…

Man, I know the "high and tight" haircut looked cool for a while, like when it was still a bit closer to the classic gentlemans' haircut and such, but as always with fashion resurgences, it develops into a version that was more extreme that it ever was in the first place. It looks ridiculous now. Does this mean that…

D'you know, I did have a brief hesitation about the date, I spose I should've googled. I think that I may have mis-remembered its appearance on "100% Hits: The Best Of 1997". Fair cop.

For me it's that god-damned "You Get What You Give" song. The most mediocre, smug and self-important posture of the year.

Yeah I've often thought that about Demolition Man too.

I just didn't really think it was funny enough! I think that it lacked an appropriate degree of sardonicism. If that's a word. It was good fun though.

Cronenberg's film basically works because he isn't really that concerned with expressing the same ideas that King is. He just takes the plot and finds the theme and metaphor within it that interests him (I think, to be fair to Kubrick's film - which I love - the same could be said for that film)

It's a bit rich the way they're putting Hellraiser on this Under Cover album. Ozzy released it less than a year before the Motorhead version but they wrote it together. Not really a cover I'd argue.

Oh make no mistake, there's definitely an audience!

I would definitely listen to that podcast, it's exactly the kind of podcast I'd like to make too! Please keep me posted if this happens, I'd love to hear it.

Yeah Amy Johnson is a damn beast! And I completely agree re Mr Adkins - he's a total delight.

When A History Of Violence is finished, can you do a thing entirely on the direct-to-video action resurgence? That stuff is a damn goldmine. Failing that, can you just trace the entire cinematic career of Scott Adkins?

I'm not a PC gamer and this game has just about convinced me to get involved.

This is the first 'new' game in years that has caught my attention. I like the odd new entry in old franchises, I liked the Doom reboot, I'm looking forward to "Definitely Not Castlevania: Ritual Of The Night", etc, but those all feel like revisiting old friends. This is the first time an actual modern new game has…

Ah, the ever reliable David Warner. What a delight.

You can also invisibly erase a moustache without much effort, too

I literally can't think of a single reason why Superman shouldn't have a moustache, and I'm angry at every single person who ever was involved in creating him or representing him for not giving him a moustache. This is some fucking bullshit. Why doesn't Superman have a moustache?
