I agree with pretty much this entire thread (although I wasn’t keen on Elordi). I’d add I don’t think the make up was much cop.
I recall sitting in the cinema and after about 5 minutes thinking - oh, this is bad and there’s a lot more to come (the polar opposite of seeing Sentimental Value)
Both your arms are more than worth holding onto but I take your point.
Strong Troy McClure vibes from this whole thing.
The Andrew O’Hagan piece is incredible. The almost matter of fact tone allows the hideous venality to speak for itself.
I enjoyed the bit on the Pink when the news broke that Spurs were 3-0 down after 14 minutes, but am disappointed the coverage didn’t continue long enough for someone to refer to their goalie as Klaus’s lad.
More power to your elbow.
The other day a friend of mine described him as ‘the Morrissey of directing’ which is sort of perfect.
I like when you start a book and can just tell it’s going to be good. #BookSky
This is marvellous

I had a soft spot for this show. Sad to hear its star, Corey Parker, has died.
Consider me enhanced. Remarkable.
Take comfort in Mafeking, works for me.

Feels like Mackenzie Crook could get a six part series commissioned using that as the pitch.
Anything described as ‘exactly the show/movie/book/music we need right now’ I immediately dismiss - unseen - as twee and/or reactionary shit. Realise I’m probably missing out on good stuff but only have time for art that shares/fuels my rage and despair.
Good seeing Richie Havens on BBC4. I was a late convert but there’s no denying his genius.
Not for the first time I’m moved to say
‘Fuck Seth Macfarlane.’
The good version, as it turned out!
‘Did you find your keys?’
Let’s hope.

Shoulda been a contender:

Got the Baez Morricone theme in my head now
God this freaked me out as a kid
Be a good double bill with Matewan.
Adam Sandler’s gonna play him on SNL, clearly.
@boydhilton.bsky.social given the lukewarm response to Shitbag, might be worth revisiting another incarnation of Rachel Weisz obsessing over a younger hottie (and you’re a big Terence S fan IIRC). Actually is OOMFFOAT
