Read more "Save The Prince Charles Cinema"Dear all, I’m posting this again; something I wrote a few years ago, in light of this week’s sad news. I just took part in the 10 minute meditation that happened around the world involving many of us, and now seems like as good a time as any to share this. When I was 14 […]
Read more "David Lynch"Wow! What a piece of news. Seeing Anya Taylor-Joy at the London Premiere of Dune Part 2, along with the confirmation that she plays a secret role in the film, is very exciting news. March 1st is creeping up and there’s not long to wait now before seeing the conclusion of Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of […]
Read more "Casting Dune 2 – Anya Taylor-Joy – initial reaction"Hi everyone, I realised today that I haven’t written anything about this film. After all those posts about the first instalment, I’ve been completely silent on this one. It’s getting close to trailer time; it can only be a few days before we all get to see something that only a few have seen so […]

Read more "Queen of Hearts – Act V review and thoughts"It’s taken me a while to get around to writing this what with one thing or another.

All the adrenaline was long gone […]
Read more "Queen of Hearts – Act 2 reaction"Hi everyone, I’ve been wanting to get this post in the bag for some time now, since seeing the first film. I made some predictions when all this started about who I thought should be in the key roles. That’s all ancient history now and, suffice to say, I didn’t get any of them right. […]
Read more "Casting Dune – Part 2 Casting Wishlist"It’s been quite some time since I went to MCM Comic Con in London. I saw an opportunity come up to go to another event, this time up in Telford. Why go so far? Well, I was very interested to meet Edward James Olmos and Mary McDonnell, the Admiral and the President respectively from Battlestar […]
Read more "A Trip to Wales Comic Con"Hi everyone, I was lucky enough to have a chance to see the first 24 minutes of Cameron Cloutier’s Twin Peaks fan film project, Queen of Hearts yesterday. As you know, I’ve been posting updates about this project as it has developed over the past few years. In terms of knowledge of the source material, […]
