I think they missed the reasonably-funny advert the celebrity duo recorded for Wrexham’s sponsor - agricultural trailer specialist Ifor Williams. (Content Warning: half-assed welsh accent attempts)

That's a great quote!  Pity the interviewer didn't bin the rest of the Solaris questions and ask Clooney dor one sentence descriptions of a bunch of other films.

Excession is the most entertaining one, and probably a good intro to the Culture - contrasting them with a more powerful entity and less powerful civilization. Also lots of lovely fireworks to CGI.  That would be my preference for the first filmed adaptation.

No!  Bring on the Dead Kennedys and their never-been-more relevant 1981 hit, “Nazi Punks Fuck Off".

I’ll raise you “Raising Arizona” (1987)

No ‘Worst of’? Tell me they’re still doing the Worst Band Names?

There is (or was) a reboot in the works, strange as that may seem.
