“When Fortuna spins you downward, go out to a movie and get more out of life” John Kennedy Toole, A Confederacy of Dunces
Thankfully I didn’t ever feel the need to walk. While it lacks the freshness (a less generous punter will find it a stale retread) and the nausea inducing tension of the original, it does has moments where nails will be bitten or hands will be over mouths.

Go and see The Incomer. It’s lovely. A funny, sweet, wee Scottish gem.
In the latest episode of “The Far-Right is Utterly Batshit”, Danny “Tommo”, Tiny-Tommy-Ten-Names’s Mate is currently stood outside the Daily Mail with 20 of his balaclava clad mates demanding that they… checks notes… Buy his mum a new house within 48 hours. You could not make this shit up.
30 years old today. One of REM’s 3 greatest albums (Reckoning and LRP being the other 2) and one of my all time faves. Absolutely love it.
Classic Simpsons coming in very handy on University Challenge tonight
Just been to see General Zod in concert. Michael Shannon and his mate Jason Narducy doing all of REM’s 4th album, Lifes Rich Pageant, and 90 mins of deep cuts. And I fucking loved every bit of it. Wish I’d seen them last yr doing the 3rd!!

Rewatching Fall before the sequel comes out next week. I loved this at the pics, even though I nearly walked out because it was so 😱🤢
Leviticus. After plenty of possible contenders, this is the horror film of the year.
The Odyssey’s been out for nearly 2 months (plus the months of hype before it) and it was only today that I randomly remembered Tony Robinson retelling the story on CBBC when I was a kid youtu.be/wNVG8fH-eE0?...

Couldn’t wait to out this on- the restored (and reclassified) bluray of one of my fave 80s films
His theme (his homage or his steal from the theme of Badlands, you decide) for True Romance , You’re So Cool, is still top tier Hans Zimmer. youtu.be/1aRDZ6z9yT8?...

Starting the bank holiday ofd with a film that deserved a lot more love at the box office than it got
Amy time they show this at the pics I have to see it. And tonight is no different.
Not everything in Shoenbrun’s slasher fantasia comes off but it’s worth seeing for Anderson’s magnificent performance alone
Dolly Parton showed this world what it looks like to lead with love. She stood with our community long before it was easy. Her voice created a world where LGBTQ+ people feel seen and celebrated. All of us at HRC will miss her dearly — and we will carry forward the light she shared with us.
40 years old today. The making of it was a political and cultural minefield, one not always navigated successfully. But the resulting album…a masterpiece
4th, last and best time seeing Nation of Language in this last year. There’s only 1 other band I’ve ever seen that much in 1 year and that’s Sigur Ros, that’s a sign of how much I love these. Those synths 🤩🤩🤩
Stephen@sulaco.bsky.social · 3w agoThursday night wasn’t enough. Off to see this lot again 😍😍
Coyote vs ACME. Genius. Absolutely loved this. Incredibly funny with a gag every 10-20secs. Plus a big heart. And to think we nearly didn’t get to see this.
Had my 3rd watch of The Odyssey yesterday. First time I was disappointed how little Lupita Nyong’o was in it. This time I appreciated how much she burns the screen up in those few moments, the rage.
