Strange errors abound. In his 1986 episode of The South Bank Show, a kind of autobiographical study which can be viewed as a complimentary work to his two volumes of memoirs, Michael Powell speaks of working with character actor James Gleason, who annotated his scripts with the mysterious word DO. Powell recalls questioning his star […]
Across four decades and budgets ranging from $2,000 to $2.5m, the same nine lessons keep surfacing. None of them are what the industry tells you to expect.
Mission: Impossible (1996)
The found footage movie Exists isn't even a little bit good, but at least it chooses the right side
Condragulations, Teyana Taylor, you're the winner of this week's episode. CLÁUDIO ALVES: It’s legitimately impressive how this season is falling apart so close to the finish line. Who decided the last competitive episode of the year should be another damned comedy challenge? Specifically, the return of season 9’s dreadful Morning Show parody!?! I don’t know what’s going on in those producers’ minds, but it’s nothing good. At least, the challenge results were so obvious that there’s no debat...
The first recording today starts with the end of TMI. There’s a trail for Blue Peter. There’s also a trail for Jinx. Then, here’s something a bit unexpected. It’s Doctor Who: Dreamland. This was, if I remember correctly, originally a set of web exclusive episodes, which have been made into a single episode for this BBC Two showing. The […]
I interviewed the showrunner of Fox's Extracted season two, and we talked about changes this season, how producers planned the endgame, Luke's family's fake advantage, and much more.
“These damn things are as hot as a stiff cock!” Over one year, a blogger (Amy Adams) attempts to cook every recipe in Julia Child’s (Meryl Streep) Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Notable for being Nora Ephron’s last work, and the fir...
Published by AHE. on 06th April 2026 Louis released a new documentary and responses have been mixed. Inside the Manosphere is the new documentary from Louis Theroux. Whilst I think the hype around its release was well deserved, and the film does a lot of th...
This is a recap-ish of the latest podcast episode. You can listen to the episode below before or after you read. That’s because I tend to expand on topics from the pod as well as straight-up write about things that we did not discuss. The choice is yours in how you want to proceed! Hello, […]
By Jessica Holmes So, here we are. Timeslip’s current series is over, and your guess is as good as mine for whether there will be another. But should there be? Does Timeslip wrap up neatly with a flourish, leave us wanting more… or perhaps wear out its welcome? Let’s examine the ending of “The Day … Continue reading [April 6th, 1971] The End Of Time (Timeslip: The Day Of The Clone [Parts 4-6]) → The post [April 6th, 1971] The End Of Time (<i>Timeslip</i>: The Day Of The Clone [Parts 4-6]) app...
Took my boys to see The Magic Faraway Tree. 📺 I always remembered my favourite primary school teacher reading The Enchanted Wood and The Magic Faraway Tree just before home time every day. I loved the idea of climbing up through the clouds into a new magical land. I’ve had my head in the clouds ever since! My boys both enjoyed me and their mum reading the books to them, too. That’s so long ago for big kid now that he didn’t want to go to the cinema and miss out on his “device time”. So he was...
PBS Masterpiece brings a reimagined version of John Galsworthy’s ‘Forsyte’ novels from the U.K. to
“Dogs’ lives are too short. Their only fault, really.” So writes novelist Agnes Sligh Turnbull on a universal truth: To have a pet is to lose a pet. The day your pet dies is a day you’re not likely to forget. We were thinking about this when we watched the quirky 1978 documentary, Gates of Heaven, about a pet cemetery … Continue reading →
I regularly scour online auction sites looking for unique treasures for the ever-growing Twin Peaks archive. I recently stumbled upon three publicity photos from the 1992 release of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me in the Czech Republic. These three images include on-set photography by the late Lorey Sebastian and are something I’ve... The post Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me Publicity Photos from the Czech Republic appeared first on TWIN PEAKS BLOG.
Solid fun, a nice plot for a movie based on a video game. Highly expected, nothing too special, but a somewhat confusing plot - the one that is based on the real world feels almost as fantastical as the Minecraft one.
You mean you hadn’t noticed?
It’s no secret that the Hollywood Comet loves musicals. In 2010, I revealed I had seen 400 movie musicals over the course of eight years. Now that number is over 600. To celebrate and share this musical love, here is … Continue reading →
So in our last installment, I wrote about some of the new villains John Byrne created during his Fantastic Four run that never really seemed to go much of anywhere. Someone responded in the comments that Malice, AKA “Dark Invisible Woman,” was one that Byrne came up with and popped up again and again over […]
It's A Wonderful Life (1946)
🍿 Svadba (2026) was a competently executed, fun, and a tad crass romp. The only thing that can unite the Balkans is clearly love and mockery of corrupt transnational elites.
The first recording today is a repeat of Space 1999 – New Adam, New Eve. Media Centre Description: New Adam, New Eve: Intergalactic adventures of the space-travelling Moonbase Alpha team. An alien claiming to be the ‘creator’ offers the Alphans a present they cannot refuse. Recorded from ITV4 on Thursday 3rd December 2009 13:58 After this […]
Project Hail Mary is the among the best movies about science and space and aliens and t-shirts I've ever seen. ⊕
(thoroughly unacceptable for kids and the sexually modest) Or: The swains in Spain / Are effing profane. A posting on the occasion of my scoring my own copy of the gay porn romp Joey’s Surf Vacation (MEN.com, 2024), in which twink Joey Mills travels to Spain to learn to surf, but ends up mostly with […]
