His posters were a constant on my walls as I grew up - for some of the greatest films ever. What an incredible talent. RIP, Sir.

Good morning from Rebel who definitely didn't spend the last hour of being in bed kicking me in the back of the head.

Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, and one song you can’t stand.

Food: Pickled Eggs

Film: The Rise of Skywalker

Song: Breakfast at fucking Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something.

“Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, and one song you can’t stand”

Food: cucumber, however if you pickle it I'll eat em all day

Film: Jacob's Ladder, avoided it for years then was tricked into seeing it

Song: the whole of the fucking moon
