Quite a few people wanting to try in Bruges
Movie Log ๐ฟ: Hot Shots! Part Deux, 1993 - โ โ โ ยฝ
Wild bit of parody watched on a hotel TV late at night. Some hilarious moments. I LOVED YOU IN WALL STREET
Iโm in Bruges for the weekend, sampling fries and beers. This one was particularly nice
14 year old me wouldโve been super pleased to hear Iโm off to watch Yellowcard tonight

Slow motion shots of waves breaking all over the show. Great action movie, everything you want is here.
Watching Jimmy Eat World next week, been an incredibly long time coming. Looks like theyโre playing plenty on Futures at the moment which bodes well, itโs my favourite album of theirs ๐

Felt so desperately sorry for Bill throughout the whole film. Beautifully shot and really well executed. Terrifying nuns throughout

Hughโs great in this. The plot was perhaps a little contrived but I enjoyed the movie regardless
I’ve just used Legacy Scrobbler for the first time. It’s a nifty bit of software that scrobbles the plays on your iPod to last.fm. I get to have my cake and eat it now. Music on the iPod with all the stats of streaming. ๐ถ

Down to see Molchat Doma. Big Tuesday night!

Very well acted and well shot movie. I understand the timeline flitting wouldโve been a creative decision but was a bit much for me. ย Overall I enjoyed it, worth a watch. Difficult to watch with a pint

Never has a film overwhelmed me quite like this. Was sat in the car for ages after leaving the cinema just trying to come back down to earth. This feels like an instant classic
Lovely to spend a day in Valencia last week. Already feels ages ago ๐ญ
I cannot stop listening to Art Brut. I canโt and wonโt.

I think I just watched a two hour perfume ad
Finished reading: Chaise Longue by Baxter Dury ๐
One indicator that Iโm holiday is the rate Iโm finishing books. This one is great - Iโve been a fan of Baxterโs music for a while and have of course heard his Dadโs. This is a wild โฆ
I canโt even imagine how bad the hangover would be from this
Just finished: The Hobbit (Enhanced Edition) by J. R. R. Tolkien ๐
Nice intro to the world. Iโm a sci-fi guy, so this is out of my wheelhouse but was really enjoyable nonetheless!
๐ Mabel looking cute for the camera
Iโve got a new (old) toy! Remarkable how well this works given it must be fifteen years old. Even more remarkable is how good it sounds. Now to play around with modding it..

How any of that was created with the methods available at the time blows my mind
