I thought Metaphor: ReFantazio was 👌

Krusty the clown saying "Let's just say it moved me…"

Celebrity: I think we should all just chill out and accept AI.

Journalist: But why?

My review. in which I dispute the presence of Mummies AND (quite possibly) Lee Cronin.

Also, by all accounts, the film doesn't have anything to do with mummys.

I am excited for Lee Cronin’s Lee Cronin’s The Mummy.

Michael (1996) + Michael (2011) = Michael (2026)

Caught by the Tides

I dunno… the current regime don't seem to really care about having "names" in the line-up. Watch this space I guess…

Is 2026 an all-time low turnout for British films in Cannes? Do we not have anything ready to go?

Gwendoline Riley’s The Palm House.

I was scared to read this because I just thought the likelihood of it being as good as (or even better than) My Phantoms was so remote. And yet…

I pressed F10 f'kin pay me.

I must know, if you "write" a "novel" using AI, is that also accepting that you should also forego payment? As an editor, I'd be like, okay, 65k words… shall we say that's worth… 2 quid?

Thoughts on Wild Love?

Fabulous news.
