Dark City (1998)
This sci-fi tale is from the director of 'The Crow'.

In voiceover at the beginning Dr Schreber (Keifer Sutherland) explains: "First there was darkness then came the strangers. They were a race as old as time itself. They had mastered the ultimate technology: the ability to alter physical reality by will alone. They called this ( Read more... )

Rising Stars, Rising Questions
A 4 part documentary about abuse on Nickleodeon. A perv and a tale of abuse. Nick did feet and stuff flung in faces and water poured over kids. Ew, ew, ew. Kids were responsible for the economic success of their families. Puberty was an issue for some. Amanda Bynes was the star despite being talentless. There was ( Read more... )

This was a disappointment. Easily miffed people uncover a clone conspiracy which is not profoundly traumatising. There is swearing, bad diction and tiffs. Things are belittled, trivialised or simply ignored. People show no interest or deepening reflection. This is grindhouse. An old drunk hovers around the local convenience store.

Riptide 1x03

There is a reveal of scenario planning by a pathologically obsessed nut. This is boringly repetitive with little consequence for my life. The soundtrack is good. Too good for this mess that causes incredulity. Ethan is arrogant and dismissive with a whiff of sleaze. He loves to make disparaging comments. The ex isn't trusted. Alison is ( Read more... )

Look Away (2021)

A documentary about abuse in the music industry. Nasty song lyrics are read out. Groupies and a former member of The Runaways speak. This was not an addicitve thing. Sunset strip is talked about. Vintage footage and photos are shown. David Bowie is mentioned. Where were their parents? There is talk of radio and Iggy Pop. Nobody ( Read more... )

'Harry & Meghan' promo

FFS.

'The Amazing Maurice' promo

Mmmmm.

'White House Plumbers' teaser

“Laughed at as 3rd rate burglers forever.”

Cherrissimo classic - nice.

He left me for a reason no one will ever know. One is desperate to be loved, desperate to be liked and one can't deal with criticism.

I'll skip 'Chucky' 2x08.

Who saw 'Clan'?

Every Little Thing

Polanski is arrested, Reagan is elected, the USSR does not invade Afghanistan and Three Mile Island is prevented by technology developed on the moon. The Pope is assassinated but Lennon lives. Charles marries Camilla meaning William and Harry will never exist. The space shuttle is built. WHY? Reagan is paranoid and war mongering. ( Read more... )
