Invictus sounds like something Dennis Feinstein would make.

Heh. I had a crush on him when he was Sark on Alias and I think it lingers to this day.

My cat used to launch himself from the top of the wardrobe and land on our knees at 3am.

What I meant was that I felt like I recognised the people and the things they do all day, because they were things that people I know do. which I don't always get with TV drama.

It's true. Elizabeth Olsen, Cobie Smulders, Krysten Ritter, Natalie Portman, Chloe Bennet, Elizabeth Henstridge, Adrianne Palicki, Hayley Atwell, Deborah Ann Woll - all less pretty than Loki

I would totally watch Michael Fassbender just typing at a computer for two hours, but I might decide to wait till it was on Netflix.

I'm not really a fan - I've only seen each film once - and yet I could see how thrilling that moment was. The rest of all the Star Wars trailers I've. seen have been utterly generic and I haven't cared at all - the bit where some guy in a cloak and gloves looms at the camera as if he's going 'aaah!' trying to scare a…

I think it's for perfume.
All perfume ads are the same. I kind of love them though. There's one with Chris Pine that I've seen it feels like 80 times and I still could NOT tell you what kind of perfume it's for. So in that respect they all fail. But yeah. Perfume.

Didn't realise Goodnight Mommy was produced by Ulrich Siedl. Now it's at the top of the list.

I know - I'm a long term Kiarostami fan, there's no excuse!

I lived in Cambridge for a good few years (and travelled back and forth from there to Northampton for a bit of that time) so I know the area a bit - it is quite nice round there. But yeah, 300 USD won't get you anything in most of this country. Maybe something small in some parts of the north but that's about it.

I've not seen the second one, but I do think this is better than In the Bedroom.

what I liked most about this film was the background. The big emotional stuff is very well done. But for me it made me realise how rarely you see this particular middle-class Englishness on screen - the small town dreary peacefulness of overpriced arts-centre cafes and roundabouts and drizzle. It was the first thing…

I legit loved the teaser trailer for Fantastic Four or Fant4stic or however you're meant to spell it. (https://www.youtube.com/wat… around 96% of that love was purely for Olafur Arnalds' lovely music from Broadchurch, but the way they mixed it with the visuals etc and the sombre tone of the whole thing somehow really…

She might count as part of The Americans, though she's not in it much.

If they did absolutely have to go with a stupid sensationalist headline like that, surely Game of Rape would have worked better at suggesting what I'm guessing they were suggesting?

I've done a few in-cinema marathons -the Alien films, the Exorcist films (both done as all-nighters) and the Three Colours films as a sedate afternoon experience. When I was a teenager a local cinema also used to do quite a few weird all-nighter quadruple bills - putting things like Mystery Train and Hardcore…

Oh ITMFL is one of my favourite films. It's so wonderful.

I'm waiting until the crowds die down a bit myself.I'm also gloomily interested in seeing how long I can avoid spoilers. Staying off Twitter and only skim-reading stuff elsewhere.

I went to see Carol this week, and I didn't care all that much. I can see why people like it, I guess, but I didn't have any interest in or like either character - any of the characters - and while the surface gloss is professionally done, with great care and attention to detail, that wasn't enough to make me care…
