Perhaps the most obvious point ever posted but would anyone give a fuck about the film Superfly if it had literally anyone other than Curtis Mayfield doing the soundtrack? I mean the film is actually crap, but […]

Holly Johnson, The Pixies and Cymande so far…

Actual Scottish person here! Runrig are shite. Always have been, always will be. I always suspected that the fact that they are Gaelic speakers is what kept them going; there’s always been a scam in Scotland […]

I forgot Gullivers Travels! Fucking hell, how could I do that?

If we’re talking “classics” here that means 19th century or earlier to me. My favorites are; – Vanity Fair by William Thackery (It’s literally War and Peace with jokes and Becky Sharpe is the greatest female […]

I think her and Joe Orton are literally the only people Kenneth Williams ever had a kind word about.

I think an Oasis reunion is a fantastic thing. Towns around the country will have less divs running amok in them if they play big enough venues.

Also I am assuming it’s cartoons only, hence nothing from Mary Poppins. And what the hell is “What Makes The Red Man Red” doing here? When my kids were small I watched Peter Pan with them and to say that tune […]

I am going to mention two crime writers who are well worth looking up and who I don’t see mentioned. 1) Denise Mina – possibly the best living novelist in Scotland right now? Conviction is a fun read and The Less […]

Most comedy is, by necessity “of its time” which I’d suggest gives it an automatic sell by date which may not be any longer than the immediate laugh provoked. The stuff that lasts, I reckon, does so accid […]

I’m going to point out one thing. The weather was awful so turnout was terrible. Only something in the region of 56,000 voted, less than in 2016. So these really were the dedicated Trump nutters. I don’t […]

I saw this yesterday. I thought it was completely wonderful, though a lot of smart arses online have been pointing out the resemblance to “Frankenhooker.” Poor Things has the visual beauty of Powell and […]
