Hmmm real missed step of an episode. But, and surely I’m not the only one, I would watch the hell out of Michelle Gomez even in a mediocre episode. She is as sexy as hell.

Personally I didn’t think it was that bad. In fact, controversially I preferred it to Ex Machina, which tried to ask (and answer) the same sort of questions but just ended up being a robosexual w*nk fantasy driven by a single strong performance (Oscar Isaac at his scenery-chewing best). Chappie went about things in a…

Came for the well formed plastic butt shot. Left empty handed.

Sweet Zombie Jesus, what’s with that guy’s neck? He looks like a really bad game engine glitch

I guess hearing that this takes more of its cues from GTA than The Crew might win me back (and you’re of course absolutely right about Most Wanted and to some extent Hot Pursuit also showed that it can be done, it just needs a good solid structure with loads to do under the hood). My real gripe about open world stuff…

Am I not seeing something you lot are? This looks like a completely bland uninspiring “Crew” rip off to me. If it had an ounce of the charisma of the Fast and Furious early movies, it’d be a win - and ditto on the open world thing. All the best entries in the Need for Speed series were ones that didn’t have open…

This looks really cool and probably the only time I’d be wishing for DLC (for other star trek ships and scenarios). One thing I really hope VR developers get on board with though is sorting out some sort of viable ‘at rest’ animation for VR hands. I’ve never yet seen a game where the footage doesn’t look completely…

Liked the movie a lot more than I thought I would, and definitely found Newt refreshing compared to the usual dull “Oh he’ll start off a bit crap but before long he’ll be kicking ARSE” cardboard cutout characters we see as leads in most modern movies. I liked Newt’s sensitivity, and a lot of that came from Eddie…

As long as games companies are prepared to accept that there will be more and more triple-a fails at point of release while people wait, and wait, and wait for the inevitable price gouging and ‘game of the year - all the content DLC we planned but couldn’t sell’ stuff to happen around the games as a service model,…

Gotta be Sucker Punch. I remember the utter hatred poured onto the thing at its theatrical release but I’ve watched it countless times at home and I just can’t get over how fecking great it looks in places. Plus Oscar Isaac really doesn’t suck in anything he’s in (oh, apart from that last X-Men flick. That was bloody…

Look at these two, like the two kids sat in front of the whole class in detention for making farting noises with their armpits. As much as I sympathise with our cousins across the pond and their feckless ice-cream-headed leader, we’re not much better off over here in Blighty either.

Netflix has (and probably always will be) absolute poop for movies. I too share your frustration that a lot of hoary old stuff that’s endlessly repeated on terrestrial telly here on the ‘free’ channels doesn’t even make the cut on Netflix (and it gets even worse when they do stupid stuff like put up the 4th in a movie…

Hell yes! That would be fantastic!

The book you linked to above is indeed called “The Mid Life Crisis”. Actually had no idea these Ladybird books were a ‘thing’ anywhere else but the UK but I guess they might appear stateside and in other countries after all. There are a whole stack of them on daft subjects, using original Ladybird Book artwork with…

Great name but they will have to go some to beat Queen (the rock group) and their new VR experience, which is called...

Some seriously unimaginative costume direction there (when you consider Trek’s fairly rich heritage of amazing costumes). I guess it makes sense in the context of being the sort of thing you’d wear on a desert planet but...Rey in SW Ep 7 obviously has a lot to answer for.

I’d be tempted to put Looper in here, but not sure of your definition of “noir” - Some great choices though, and a reminder that someone really ought to remaster Dark City properly for Blu Ray (my DVD copy looks like it was lifted from a VHS print, terrible quality).

Eesh. It’s like someone walked up to Galaxy Quest’s corpse and teabagged it. Don’t think I laughed once, in fact I think I laughed more at those dreadful Star Wrecks books than this trailer.

No reflection on IO at all (fine developers) but that seasonal model for Hitman can do one.

Well done on featuring the Sly Stallone version of Dredd rather than Urban’s far superior one. Yeah, well done.
