My top 10 of 2025.

Thanks Adam. You too.

@adamzed.bsky.social gutted to say we won’t be able to make your performance on Sunday afternoon anymore. I’ve let The Dukes know so they can re-list the tickets. I hope it goes really well.

@sethworley.bsky.social just out of a screening of SKETCH in the UK with my 12 year old. We both loved it! A heartfelt fairytale about grief with some fantastic monsters. Been a fan of your red giant shorts for years so great to finally see a film of yours on the big screen.

Love getting to the stage of adult life where you can buy yourself the things that your 8 year old self would’ve been so jealous of.

booked tickets for the Sunday matinee performance of A Christmas Carol in Lancaster. Can't wait!

Definitely a mixed bag this week.

Yeah it’s the best of the series for me (including Bloodlines)

Thanks for this. I’m using the lectionary reading for my service on Sunday so it’s given me more to reflect on. Also I’ve just realised that you are the same Simon Cross whose daily email I used to receive. Small world

I remember it well. It got me started on my workout journey with Joe Wicks. Just got this badge today after I finished my workout. Come along way from someone who never exercised before it.

Just listened to your happiness episode @mikemuncer.bsky.social @bunnydarke.bsky.social that was an hour an a half of pure bliss. Haven’t laughed so much with a podcast!

Maren Morris (@marenmorris.bsky.social) new album D R E A M S I C L E arrives may 9 🍦

Tickets booked for @marenmorris.bsky.social in Manchester. can’t wait!

February’s viewings. A very mixed bag. Tootsie was fantastic though. 9/52.

Wow how many podcasts do you have?!? I don’t know how you find the time

Just watched “hostile dimensions” by @factionman.bsky.social a great follow up to “Death of a Vlogger”. A fun sci-fi horror found footage bursting with ideas. I always knew softplays in Erskine were scary places.

wow "Humanist Vampire seeking consenting suicidal person" was incredible. Heartbreaking, sincere and very funny. The best vampire film I've seen in years.

January viewings. 5 down.

That will be a very impressive year

My #52filmsin2025challenge will be to watch 52 films from 1982. The year I was born.

my top 10 horror films of 2024.

The top 10 films I've seen in 2024.

It’s been a good day.

JK Simmons has now played Santa twice.

Absolutely! They’re obviously not official but the fan film Never Hike in the Snow is a solid Friday 13th short film.

So far this year I’ve rated 5 films ***** and 10 films ****1/2. It’s going to be struggle to wrestle my top 10 out of it.

It’s Friday 13th so obviously I’m watching my favourite in the franchise. I love how they all start with a “previously on Friday 13th” recap.

You’re too modest 😉 he is a wonderful human being though. Met him at Liverpool comic con earlier this year. It was a delight

@simonbrew.bsky.social just listened to your podcast with Kevin Smith. That’s the funniest and most heartfelt interview I’ve heard in some time. Fantastic!

Rewatched it last night too, with the family. So good!
