Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Season 2 – Episode 3

Episode 3 – Weapon So, I thought I’d have a little break from the A-Z thing and take a dip back into Blake’s 7, and as it’s already 10pm, I’m going to get straight to it. Episode 3 begins with a spaceship exploding (not the Liberator this time). We are then greeted by the sight […]

C is for Cinema

I’ve got to be there before the trailers. In truth, it’s only since the advent of reserved seating that I’ve been OK with getting there once the adverts start. Need to get a seat on the end of a row, preferably with no-one in front. Really, I’d like the screen to be completely empty but that’s […]

Endorsement!

Hey, my Belize article got the seal of approval from the Belize tourist board. Yay!

My ‘Children of Men’ Article

Hi there, Check out the link to my new article on Taste of Cinema. My editor changed my title; it wasn’t supposed to say ‘best’. I love the film but I hadn’t even thought whether it was the best or not, or whether that even matters. I guess editors want splashy, controversial statements. Anyway, Enjoy, […]

B is for Belize

I promise this is not going to turn into a travelogue. It’s just a coincidence that a few important places for me are between A and D. March 1999. I was all packed to go to Canada. I’d had my leaving drinks and everything. After finishing university, I had spent a couple of years working […]

A is for Austin (Blogging from A to Z)

So, I’m going to do this thing called Blogging from A-Z for April. It will involve lots of posts, some longer than others, and it will hopefully provide a look into what makes me tick. To begin with, A is for Austin. That’s not me; that’s Austin, Texas. My favourite place to go in the United […]

K is for Kyle and Kirk

My brother, as I said in my last post, has always been a great role model and hero of mine. Now I want to focus on a couple of other people who have chipped in too (without knowing it to a large degree (although I did meet one of them once and tell him so). […]

J is for John

No long-winded post this time but my big brother’s worth a letter all to himself in this alphabet of mine. He’s my hero, all the way from when we had bouncy ball battles with our Star Wars figures. Who would get the tie-fighter pilot that smelled of sweets? Who would get the C3-PO with the […]

All the best, Richard http://www.tasteofcinema.com/2017/all-10-david-lynch-movies-ranked-from-worst-to-best/ As requested, some love for the Atreides dog!

Fillion vs. Glover (Birthday showdown)

Today is March 27th which, I found out a couple of days ago, is the birthday of Quentin Tarantino, Nathan Fillion and Julian Glover. I wonder if they know that they share this? Hopefully they will when I’m done. Here’s the line up: Quentin Tarantino – a great director responsible for some of the defining movies […]
