Really useful engine.

The amount of TV and movies we haven't watched as they're "more of a Halloween thing" has grown to the point that we will have to start watching spooky shit from the first week of September just to get through it all, and I am perfectly fine with that.

Supergirl finished with less at the box office than Blue Beetle, Shazam 2, Morbius... If they want to know why, I'll tell them. The trailer showed a dog getting injured and potentially dying and my kids cite this as the exact reason why they couldn't be dragged to it.

Kinda mad how it has been over 20 years between the announcement of the last actor to play James Bond, and the announcement of the next. At this rate of going, whoever gets announced might be the last Bond I see.

We're watching Spider-Man: Far From Home. Mysterio throws it out there that he's from an alternate Earth, and that Peter's Earth is Earth-616. Which it is- as confirmed by the Loki show. BUT MYSTERIO IS A SHIT-TALKER. He's lying from the get-go. So how did he get this right?! In this essay, I will

We’re watching The Mummy. Big shout out to Winston, every line of dialogue he has is basically ‘if I had one wish it would be to die in a plane crash while on some crazy mission, and if my body was dragged into the ground by quicksand that would be just whizzer and chips, old boy!’

We want to see Spider-Man: Brand New Day. As we were leaving the cinema staff were handing out posters for the movie. I said, ‘have you brought me those pictures of Spider-Man?!?’ and it got a good laugh. Might go again at the weekend, see if I can get that laugh again.

I'll say this much for The Odyssey, it's the first film that I've known to be 'sold out' since Jurassic Park in the Adelphi in Dundalk. We cannot get tickets for this fuckin thing. Like yeah you can see it on a pauper screen at 11am by all means, but a nice big screen with recliner seats, forget it

We’re a nation badly in need of a good luck story at the minute, something to lift all our spirits. And Mayo winning the All-Ireland might just be what we need right now. For that reason, I say Mayo for Sam. With that said, I also have a few punches cocked for if they lose
