I think this is quite a nice, suspenseful little story. Not one of my all time favourites but a decent way to pass the time. I think the writers of the AG series should look at this as an example of how to do character based episodes without having them be about the characters personal lives or even be set on earth.
I’ve seen some give this story…[Read more]

Unfortunately there are probably quite a number of people on the internet who fall for this sort of thing.

@pedant You don’t come across as patronising, you seem more like you’re just trying to offer some helpful advice.

@barbaralefty Definately them. They me sent the exact same message as last time.

@pedant It’s not that I think Buffy is bad, I used to love it when I was 5, I’m just not a fan of the way Joss Whedon always has his characters have something clever or witty to say, which is something modern Who as adopted. I really liked Avengers Assemble and Serenity though, and Toy Story is a masterpiece.

@Havoc Yes I was 11, 9 years ago when series 2 started. 9 years isn’t recent. And so what if was 11, are 11 year olds not allowed to have an opinion. Also just because you think Tennant is the best doesn’t make it a fact.

And ESPECIALLY Not when you quote Revenge Of The Clones or whichever rubbish film Lucas Put Out (pun intended) in your short…

I just found out the woman who inspired the song Disco 2000, Deborah Bone has died. According to the article below, she was awarded an MBE for her work as a mental health worker.

That was, not as bad as I thought it would be. Still not great but better than most of the other Christmas specials.

I was watching Trainspotting a while ago and I remembered this cheerful little tune by Pulp that appeared on the soundtrack. Enjoy.

I’m probably going to end up watching my all time favourite Christmas film, Die Hard, this year. Yippie Ki Yey.

This isn’t exactly a classic Christmas song, but who doesn’t like Tommy (The album, not the film. I completely understand if you hate the film.)

@purofilion Yeah, I did video reviews of the first two episodes of series 8 (I didn’t do the rest because I felt like I came off as a rambling idiot). I’m 19 if you’re wondering.
I first heard that song on a BT advert but I never knew what it was called until I saw the Thomas Crown Affair.

Here’s the Oscar winning classic Windmills of Your Mind by Noel Harrison

I don’t know how many of you are familiar with Brian De Plama’s cult classic Phantom of the Paradise. It’s basically a modern day update of Phantom of the Opera and Faust. The music was done by the great Paul Williams, who was nominated for an Oscar for it. This is my personal favorite track

@BadWulf That stones video has been driving me mad for years. The version of the song they play isn’t the one from the album. They’re clearly miming, so it’s not a live version. Was it the single release? Is it even available to buy? I hope so because it’s better than the lousy album version.

Yeah, it’s pretty well known that Lloyd Webber ripped…[Read more]

Dun, dun dun dun dun dun, dun dun, dun dun dun dun dun

@BadWulf That is one hell of a poster. My first cinematic disappointment was probably X Men Origins: Wolverine. I went to see it on my Birthday, which only made it worse.

@Arbutus Thanks for that. Something Else is probably tied with Revolver as my favorite album.

Here’s some more Morricone

@BadWulf Like I said I don’t think it’s as bad as people make it out to be. In fact, I’m actually quite found of it since it was the first film I ever watched at the cinema.
There are a lot of things I like about it such as the music, Darth Maul and the production design.
Now Attack of the Clones, that’s an awful film.

My favorite track from Star…[Read more]
