Paul Rudd.

Having just googled that image I also find it a little odd. I assume this is late in the movie and that by then I didn’t care.

The last Burton film I saw at the cinema. Or at all.

After reading an article in a series on comfort movies I rewatched Grosse Point Blank for the not quite umpteenth time. Still fun.

Have always loved an amouring up scene, ever since watching the (TV) A-Team as a kid. Not quite the same thing perhaps but in that vein.

First thought that came into my head on seeing this: Tag & Bink The Movie.

Thanks ants.

I’ve not seen the anime but have read the manga which is good stuff. The fairytail storybook from the orphanage really stuck in my mind also. It still creeps me out whenever I think about it.

Unexpectedly watched The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.

Surely we never stopped appreciating Leslie Nielson?

Seeing Once Upon A Time... In Hollywood at the cinema I knew it was long but not annoyingly so. It did feel a bit like Tarantino was being indulgent with takes that maybe could be cut down, but weren’t because he wants us to soak in the atmosphere of the period. I think it helps provide a contrast to the finale which,

This unexpected period of YouTube deep diving has led me to How To Drink.

It is isn’t it. I was quite charmed by the film. A little disappointed they don’t seem to have really worked on getting sequels out as they did with the charmless Baystrosities.

The long weekend should be a chance to catch up on various series like iZombie or Jessica Jones or reading the books accumulated from charity stores in the before time. Instead yesterday ended up being a rewatch of the first season of Castle because it’s fun, familiar and easy to zone out to. Also, I’m lazy. So I’ve

I watched Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. A quick fun parody of, I’m guessing, mostly the Johnny Cash biopic among other early pop/rock/country and western stars. Tim Meadows is delightful in it, John C. Reilly sings pretty good doing takes on various people’s voices from the aforementioned to Roy Orbson. The humour

I don’t know if it was part of the permanent collection but that sign was in the Tate Modern two/three years ago when I went to see their Picasso show. That little bit of humour with the message made it stand out and memorable compared to most everything else I saw in it's display room.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Another childhood movie that has quite a few things I only picked up on as an adult. Porky Pig’s all beef sausage anyone? Not that this was one of the things I picked up on because I’m older, it just made me laugh.

Love Eureka. If you hadn't already planned to I'd suggest Warehouse 13 to watch as well. One because it's a similarly fun show and secondly because it has some crossover episodes with Eureka - which, if I recall correctly, you'll have already seen at least one of?

Saw The Invisible Man yesterday. I can’t recall having ever been that tense for nearly the whole duration of a movie. Very effective. Parts of the way it was filmed called to mind Paranormal Activity and It Follows, so afterwards i was trying to figure out if this is just as a result of the story their having to tell

Started watching Locke & Key, 3 episodes in and loving it. It has been a while since I read the comics, which I haven’t finished, so I keep remembering things that are about to happen but this hasn’t prevented it from feeling fresh. It has just been so well put together from the way it looks to the cast etc that I’m en
