I’ve opened my season 4 DVD boxset of Smallville, which had been gathering dust for a couple of four years. I blame my reluctance for getting it out on rewatching season 3. I think I’m going to have to pace myself and manage my expectations. I’d seen the first episode of season 4 when it aired live and then didn’t watch the rest. Looking over my ( Read more... )

I’m disgruntled to find out out that Much Ado... is not showing anywhere near me this week (cinema weeks start on Friday). I would have gone to see that before Man of Steel. Now I’m thrown into my usual dilemma about big films that I want to see but am not desperate to see, whereas with the latter it’s just a matter of getting there as quickly as ( Read more... )

This week, I managed to finish watching Smallville season 3 on DVD just in time to be able to start watching my Community DVDs after they arrived. Yay! So far, I've kept to one episode a night - I doubt if it will last. For one thing, I loved the 'moar show' aspect of Viva showing episodes in a double bill ( Read more... )
