I took a long hiatus from fiction for a while, thinking it had nothing to offer me

'That's another Eddie Murphy joint' - Don't talk like that, it's stupid.

Saw him play Prospero in the Tempest in Manchester. Bloody unreal.

I was on a long bike ride yesterday listening to the album. The extended version of Get Lucky (and the overall length of the album) made total sense. DP definitely didn't have ''sitting down listening on headphones by yourself" in mind when they made it.

I live in Japan and speak (in my opinion) very good Japanese. Once you understand what the Japanese actually means (as opposed to idiosyncratically translated subtitles) you realise that lots of the English dialogue in dubs is far superior to the Japanese originals - especially in the case of Cowboy Bebop. Also,…

I've never hit a girl in my life but I watch this and I find myself nodding genuinely.

I wish people (especially AVclub reviewers) would stop expecting this to be Mad Men/The Wire in Middle Earth. This is fantasy! (Parks&Rec too- it's comedy, all it has to do is be funny!) If gratuitous nudity and sex was all of a sudden unbecoming of a fantasy story I'd have to throw away the hundreds of silly (yet…

yep it's 13 in Japan. 'cuntries' is pretty funny!

I'm straight and I think it's amazing. All this (usually) great dialogue AND nice ladies wandering around naked! That's two things that I like instead of just one (Y)

Del Toro said in interviews he's well into eva and used that as a go to along with the old kaiju films. The mechs in eva are great cause you get a real sense of weight from them. Del Toro proper wanted t get that vibe in Pacific Rim.  Also, Prometheus was baller city!

I live in Japan. Can't I just pay 5 quid to watch Got??

If I was him I'd just think: 'I'm really successful and my girlfriend is fit as fuck'. It should be so easy to ignore all these internet vibes but he goes on about it every episode. I'm a bit of a fan boy and even I'm getting sick of it.

if you hate it so much don't give it a B. I got a B in my GCSE Maths test and I've never been prouder of a grade in my life. I worked for that B!

Doesn't sound like a fight

'City of Lost Souls' is one of the best Miike films in my opinion. Stylised action and turning tokyo into a Brazilian ghetto. Very cool and one of the only Japanese films I've seen that looks at the huge latin-american immigrant population in Yokohama and Tokyo - most media in Japan pretends that these people don't…

They're just films

The Dictator is hilarious

you can tell the guys got an edge. it comes out on the podcast every now and again. One time one of the co-hosts showed up late and hardwick said "so. you're late" with fuckin steel in his voice and the guy was like "Yeah, I'm sorry".  And Matt Mira made a proper inappropriate joke in that mental health episode and…
