Some pretty expensive looking shots of rockets and a couple of laughs. A good film

Lovely walk through a forest of bluebells the other week

Just relentless silly deaths. Cheeks hurt from laughing when I left the cinema. The opening scene was immaculate. I wouldโve liked the whole film in that setting but great fun regardless.

This movie had me wondering if I was losing my mind. Properly surreal and strange. Iโm loving how much Nick Cage throws himself at roles like this

If you squint really, really hard.. Stockport can look marvellous.
I’ve been squirrelling away on a new theme for my blog that I’m really happy with. Way more minimal than my previous one, feels more appropriate for the sort of casual stuff I like to post.

Canโt believe Iโd not watched this until now. Everything comes together here to make a story about an evil car make sense. Some unbelievable practical effects work throughout, had me gobsmacked. Loved it!
A lovely photo of Hebden Bridge train station in the sun a few weeks ago. Was on a nice boozing session and have just rediscovered the photo whilst flicking through my camera roll.
Movie Log ๐ฟ: Minority Report, 2002 - โ โ โ โ
This is some good sci-fi. Full of all the touches of โthe futureโ that seemed wild at release (watches with screensย in them?!) as well as showing me the cars in I, Robot were ripped from this film. I want to call out the sound design too, because it โฆ

I was picked up and taken for a ride watching this movie. Immaculate. I am yet to see Frances McDormand in a role I am not blown away by, so so good.

Laughed a lot. This is a proper popcorn movie
There is something so deeply satisfying about this song. The sort of indie pop being released around 2008 seems to have this kind of twee lightness to it that I canโt get enough of. I found I Was A Cub Scout through iTunes free single of the โฆ
Just merged an update to my micro.blog theme microwave that adds crosspost sources and some new social icons. Enjoy ๐
Moody bagel shop in Paris at night
How cool is this bag I got with a CD in a record store in Paris at the weekend? Not very often you see this kind of thing.

Hilarious whilst balancing tension. Unique in its storytelling and I enjoyed the lot. Some comically bad punching but also a banging old Citroen ZX
If croissant hunting in Paris were a sport, Iโd be a champion.
Finished reading: Orbital by Samantha Harvey ๐
What a wonderful read. Beautifully ebbs and flows, and feels like a true reflection of the experience.
Drinking by the river in Paris with a โฌ2 tall boy from carrefour. Am I breaking the law? Who cares. Vibes are immaculate
Iโm obsessed with this Cate Le Bon album. Itโs got a real swirling, dark energy to it. Excellent listening.

A really bleak tale. A lot of story told through silence. Can see how this led into future Sean Baker movies

My heart rate went over 100bpm watching this. Youโll know the ending thatโs coming the whole time but it takes you on a rollercoaster to get there.
