Right, booked tickets for Vernon God Little at the Young Vic, which I've been gradually coming round to the idea of from initial disinterest (and really fucking stupid disinterest during the original run, which was Colin Morgan's first starring role - but of course then no-one knew who he was since he was still in drama school and it was one of the ( Read more... )

geurch. 11 batches of comics up, took 2 1/2 hours. Fuck, I'd forgotten how tedious and time-consuming listing stuff for sale is, even when it's virtually identical ( Read more... )

Slight peeved at what they did to my fave merc-with-a-mouth during the film (the beginning, no problem whatsoever. Ryan Reynolds, you're fabulous and we can provide portable Bea Arthur shrines for you. You can ( Read more... )

New Trek trailer. And it is SHINY. slightly disturbed that I can now say that I fancy Kirk. I already fancied Chris Pine, but a strategically bruised and dirty action hero Chris Pine is actually even more dribble-worthy than snarky supercilious Chris Pine. Slightly annoyed that I've still yet to see Simon Pegg as Scotty. The last set of promo ( Read more... )
