Deadline Frenzy!

No, the lack of posts in the last week wasn’t a sign my of being quickly bored with blogging, rather that I had simply loads to do in The Real World. January is always a particularly stressful time for the self-employed, given that the 31st of the month is when us freelancers have to have our [...]

The Nazi-Killin’ Bidness!

My university pal – and fellow rabid Alan Moore disciple - Chris Denton has been in touch to proudly proclaim that issue #2 of his hugely enjoyable (and very professional looking) small-press title WALKING WOUNDED  is now available for download for FREE at their website, MASSACRE FOR BOYS, which can be found here.  (Click on the picture for [...]

Aspect of a Beautiful Sunset

BEFORE SUNSET, Richard Linklater’s sublime 2004 sequel to his much loved indie hit BEFORE SUNRISE (1995), is one my favourite films.

Pandoran Blues…

As James Cameron’s Avatar progressively rumbles towards beating Titanic’s worldwide box-office record of $1.8 billion, CNN writes of a slightly disturbing side-effect of the film’s globe-gobbling success.

Spider-Man No More! (…sort of.)

Well, this is a very suitable first post for my blog…! Entertainment news outlets are currently buzzing with the stunning – if not exactly surprising –  news that Sony are intending to re-boot their prized Spider-Man franchise in 2012. In the last few weeks, there have been many rumours of a major spat between the franchise’s [...]

    Man of Steel observation: Zod and co's passage to The Phantom Zone looked like A FLEET OF FLYING BLACK DILDO'S. Nice touch.
