Book Review - Other Worlds Than These “…slipping into this world is so seamless for King…that he nearly manages to build out Mid-World more in one mammoth book than he does across the entire series that came before it.” niallhetherington.wordpress.com/2026/10/23/b...

Book Review – Other Worlds Than These

So we’re all in agreement that The Odyssey trailer featured some very deliberate and genius trolling right? The fact that we got a clip that suggested Matt Damon was leading men into battle with a horrendously out of place “Let’s go!” only to discover that’s absolutely NOT what is happening 👏

Leo leaving next year. So is there some sort of ROG signal someone needs to switch on or do we just give him a call?

“…it kicks wide of the goal one time too many and ultimately doesn’t have a story that’s any way as novel as it might think it is, though there’s more than enough vintage Spielberg in there to provide a pretty decent time in the cinema all the same.” niallhetherington.wordpress.com/2026/06/12/f...

Hear me now, believe me later - I absolutely loved this film. And that is coming from someone who discovered only this year in really not a fan of the series as a whole. Takes all of Ragnarok and smashes it against Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves and produces something great boxd.it/eDrtRZ

A ★★★★½ review of Masters of the Universe (2026)

What a fitting final piece of news in what has unquestionably already been Leinster’s worst season since 2015/2016

Murray Kinsella@murraykinsella.bsky.social · 5mo ago

James Lowe set to leave Leinster and Irish rugby this summer: the42.ie/7055532

The only “bad” thing about this news is I’d love if Nia had been able to close out the trilogy but other than that, let’s go!!!! www.joblo.com/danny-boyle-...

Exclusive: Danny Boyle plans to start filming the third 28 Years Later entry next year

The conclusion to the 28 Years Later trilogy had to be delayed because of specific filming specifications, according to Boyle.

Widow’s Bay just excellently solved the standalone/origins/flashback episode problem with the simplest solution - release the next episode on the same day Genius

I sure hope Leinster move heaven and earth to keep that Frawley chap….

Special full time instructions for Leinster supporters on the back of the seat in front of me. Very thoughtful of Ryanair.

Widow’s Bay just achieved that rare feat of managing to be absolutely terrifying in a scene set in broad daylight. It was then immediately hilarious. I love this show

Finally getting around to The Leftovers, 12 yrs later. I’m 100% in it for the duration but I can absolutely see how it became the “adored but little seen” show it is. Season 1, six episodes in and there’s been a hell of a lot of acting, an awful lot of mystery but little to no hooks or progression

Just finished a Breaking Bad rewatch for the umpteenth time Never fails to shock me that the entire 5 seasons take place over a period of just two years

Film Review – Thrash

Image via IMDb I love me a shark film. Serious or comedic, I love em all for different reasons. This one made itself so hard to love at times.

Can’t recommend picking this one up any higher, a quick but intense read, does an awful lot with a tried and tested sub-genre and will have you revel in the gore whilst sobbing wildly with equal effect

Leslie Vernon is coming back... Behind the Mask director Scott Glosserman and writer David J. Stieve have confirmed sequel BEHIND THE MASK II: THE RETURN OF LESLIE VERNON at a special 20th anniversary screening at the Alamo Drafthouse in LA tonight. Coming soon. Stay tuned.

First two episodes a great setup, man it really is one of the best shows of this century Please let Frenchie and Kimiko ride off into the sunset. I can’t deal with anything other than that

One season without any - intentional or not - social media embarrassment. I’m not asking for much.

I go by “anything over 2 is recommendable in some way” 2.5 - Not for me but probably for some, so the weakest recommendation 3 - Good but wasted potential or, most often, a sequel that fell short 3.5 - Really good, maybe ran too long or lost direction at times 4 - The highest I give most films
