So, while England burns around me, I've been doing some stuff and have even had time to catch up on my McFassy rewatch and see the TV adaptation of Zadie Smith's White Teeth.

I've been talking about seeing this for so long now and finally, finally, the DVD arrived! Sadly, Michael's only in Part 2, but he's amazing enough for it to be worth it.

Okay, I've seen X-men 3: The Last Stand, probably 10 times, including at the actual cinema. HOW did I never realize it has a post-credits bit?
