Existing; it's already played Broadway in 2012 (and again in 2013). Not sure if Pasek and Paul have written extra new songs to go with the ones they already did for that, though.

I liked it precisely because of the constant onslaught of new gameplay styles; you went from 2D one-on-one fighting to puzzle battles to Fire Emblem to shmup to… all sorts, really.

The sequel is a vast improvement, incidentally; its quasi-Chrono Trigger plotline is fairly simple but there is much more interesting gameplay at hand.

Thought I'd say that the play version, directed by the very awesome John Tiffany, was absolutely brilliant. I think it followed the film rather than the book (it has been many years since I saw it in London) but it was beautiful and chilling in equal measure with plenty of theatrical magic.

I have been semi-skimming the Mindy Project recaps (I stopped watching after season 2) for years, and had no idea it was pulling high-concept hijinks like the stuff described above; clearly I have not been reading them carefully enough.

There IS a Bluray release - but only in Australia, where I imported it from.

In so many ways (unsurprisingly, given that Sonnenfeld directed the first couple of episodes of Pushing Daisies) it apes PD to a tee; the rapid dialogue, the fantastic colouring, the framing of shots etc. It's just…not…QUITE as delightful. Nearly, but not quite.

5 9 1/2, according to a correction he made GQ print (insecure much?) - not deal-breakingly short for male idol worship.

It's not "America", it's adolescent men (of all ages).

We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves is a lovely book, and Natalie Portman is exactly the right person to play the lead role in it. I will not discuss spoilers here but it is not exactly a simple story to put on film!

For whatever reason, although Season 1 never appeared in the UK, Season 2 did. I have absolutely no concept of what kind of licensing allowed for that to happen, but… I would guess that no-one in the UK watched said season 2 as a result.

I think it's completely the opposite. I think it's a sense of "what the hell do you do when the world turns to shit?" and reading different variations on that - and usually, somewhere in there, there's a glimmer of hope.

This is not exactly subtle, given that it labels Trump as a word I would rather not type out on the internet in katakana at one point…

Josh Gad is the new Dan Fogler! Cast a funny fat guy/slob/combination of both from Broadway in enough dreadful comedies and maybe he'll make some money. Maybe? Bonus points if you can sing well-but-in-a-weird-voice.

I fell behind on the show for whatever reason, and read a spoiler about one of the major characters that completely put me off - it felt like it undid everything I'd liked about them in the first season. Keeping things vague but presumably you'll be able to guess who I'm talking about. As a result I just never got…

Wow, this takes me back.

I gave up after the second book. It's a bit "girly" for me - lots of time spent on the heroine pining for her damaged magician mentor while being OMG THE MOST POWERFUL MAGICIAN EVER BECAUSE SHE CAN USE MORE THAN ONE TYPE OF MAGIC. While I'd have lapped this stuff up as a teenager probably, and I prefer this skew of…

A few years ago I read a bizarre book called Yellow Blue Tibia, by Adam Roberts, about a cohort of Russian science fiction authors recruited by the Kremlin to write an imagined alien invasion story to be used in propaganda, which then ends up coming partly true (and involves the Chernobyl disaster). I wouldn't say it…

I would have liked the boyband song… if it wasn't so horrifically autotuned (as was Valencia last week). Vincent Rodriguez III can sing - if not always totally in tune! - and it would have been much more impressive if, like Rachel Bloom and Donna Lynne Champlin, it hadn't sounded like he'd been fed through a…

Episode 11 of this season in particular is just one slow dread-filled dive into a horrifying nadir for Bojack (plus ridiculous jokes), but somehow despite him being a fairly awful person it's his self-awareness of how much of a screw-up he is that makes him worth watching.
