Now that it’s been a couple of weeks since this was published and there’s been no second article, I’m guessing this didn’t bring enough traffic to the site to make it a regular feature?

I’m genuinely confused as to how Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg ever got work again after “Sausage Party” because as the review mentions there are aspects of it which are horribly racist.

I actually quite like Rogen these days as it goes, especially in An American Pickle, but Sausage Party is one of the worst films I’ve

It’s a very quirky film even for P&P, there’s lots of suggestions of the people of the countryside clashing with supposedly more civilised types, and commentary on class. But it also has this very unconventional lead character, it’s a film I’d highly recommend but would struggle to summarise (as you might have noticed

The BFI in London had a Powell and Pressburger season last year which had a whole bunch of rare screenings and special events. I only went once as money was tight, but it was a real pleasure seeing Gone to Earth on the big screen. It also inspired me to check out the films I hadn’t seen of theirs and The Small Back

This, but also please stay for longer than even that.

I’m appalled that neither Hughes or another commentator hasn’t made a joke about how Andrew Lincoln’s breakout role in This Life was as a character called “Egg”.

And yet I can’t think of a joke to make myself. So I feel like I’ve let everyone down.

Aw man, it’s great to see you back here Ignatiy, your presence has been greatly missed, and I hope you’ll be back with us in a permanent way.

I only watched Evita for the first time recently and was surprised to find myself thinking that she was pretty good in what’s a very demanding lead role - so perhaps she’s just an actor who needs a good director, which would explain why Swept Away was so bad too.

Really pleased to see that comic reviews have returned to the site, due to financial reasons I’m a “Buys the trades about a year after they’ve come out second hand” but it’s nice to know what I’ll be reading in about 18 months time. :)

I get where you’re coming from, but V was a really formative moment for me. The original mini-series aired in the UK quite late at night and my parents would not have been happy about this if they’d known, but I managed to watch with the volume down really low in a pitch black room and I loved the madness of it all,

He wasn’t, and he was best known in the 70s and early 80s. I would say more but I think I sound a bit mean above, so shall just say that I very much doubt anyone would remember him unless they’re based in the UK and also in their late forties.

Hah, but if only.

I may get the nepo baby thing if you’re the son or daughter of someone famous, but niece or nephew seems a stretch. I am admittedly biased though, as my Uncle was a famous sitcom actor in the UK when I was a kid, but the rest of the family never saw a penny of that money, and we only ever saw him in the flesh once a

I think they should have Niles as the new Maris, often spoken to but never seen or heard.

This is undoubtedly shitty, and a lot of sites I’ve loved have disappeared over the years as well, but isn’t this down to the cost of bandwith? I have a friend who hosts a fairly popular podcast and when he mentioned the costs of keeping old episodes online I was really surprised.

This is going to show my age now, and

They mocked me for decades for printing out every webpage I’ve ever read, but who’s laughing now? Not me, that’s for sure, I’m far too old and it’d interrupt my almost constant coughing and spitting unpleasant looking liquids in to a bucket.

Clarke sadly suffers from Chronic fatigue syndrome which is why her output isn’t as prolific could be. Still, she’s now working on a new novel apparently, so hopefully that will be out in a few years time.

Yeah, and the whole “Working with my boys [Hernandez] and [Samit] has been heaven on Earth and many other planets as well. Love you boys!” thing just sounds weird and off-putting, I hope I’m wrong but I’d be surprised if this was any good.

Ah, jesus, I know I should resist, but... A great story will always find its audience”? Really? Fucking hell, there’s been some absolute dogshit written on this site since all of the good writers left, but that’s got to be one of the most ridiculous. Ugh. Okay, I’m going to delete this site from my bookmarks now, and

There’s an 80's Twilight Zone episode where a woman finds a pendant that allows her to stop time -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Little_Peace_and_Quiet - but she mostly uses it when her family and friends are being annoying so she can have some time out from them.

Oh, and then there’s the ending, but for obvious
