If anyone's thinking of getting out of the rain and going to the cinema this weekend, I would highly recommend the new Iranian film IT WAS JUST ACCIDENT, which I caught at the London Film Festival. Made in secret without the Iranian government's filming permission, it's a treat x

Back in 2016, there was an organised coup against Corbyn by the Labour right-wing, when they were polling at 34%

Three out of the four new episodes done, and I'm already reminded that despite the off-screen shenanigans of its various cast members, STRANGER THINGS is a really special show. It's so ridiculously well-cast - I mean look at this little dude's face. I knew this guy at school

Having seen WICKED: FOR GOOD, it's helpful to now finally understand the entire story and see how it all fits together. The deconstruction of the Oz mythology is fun, and kind of says something interesting about history being written by the winners. Visually it's... a choice

I don't watch much Japanese anime these days, but I did take the time to check out the CHAINSAW MAN movie last night, which was so popular in Japan it got a cinema release over here. All the hits of the genre - incredible animation, shocking violence, weirdly effective emotions👍

I'm at the age now where birthdays are profoundly depressing, so if anyone wants to say anything nice, please feel free.
What happened to this kid? Used to be kinda sweet.

I voiced a few creepy characters in this new survival horror FPS game from @FireshineGames called A.I.L.A. which is out today on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
Haven’t had a chance to play it yet, but it looks great!

So pleased and proud of my friend and Grand Theft Hamlet co-director @pinnygrylls.bsky.social , who’s been selected as a BAFTA Breakthrough Talent for 2025.
She’s a brilliant person and deserves ALL the flowers x

I suppose this is my old-man-yells-at-cloud moment, but this makes me profoundly sad. MTV sparked something extremely creative in me as an 80s/90s kid, deepening my understanding of music and cinema, making me think more creatively about both. I wouldn't be an artist without it x

My new favourite tv show is PLURIBUS, a science fiction series from the creator of Breaking Bad about everyone in the world being made deliriously happy, and one miserable woman having to figure out what has happened. It's dark and hilarious and has possibly the best pilot episode I've ever seen

The people who acted as cheerleaders for this far-right “Labour” government should take a good long look at themselves

This will bring in no money at all, and will just be publicly cruel.

Gotta admit, I didn't think being bought by Disney would reinvigorate this franchise, but with PREDATOR: BADLANDS out in cinemas, being really good and exceeding expectations financially, that's three great films in three years. We haven't ate this well since the original film...

It is pretty insane that the whole QAnon crowd and large sections of MAGA and the Tea Party movement were convinced Hillary Clinton ran a paedophile network, based on… no real evidence at all.
But now we have hard evidence of their hero Trump hiring Epstein and… crickets

Lovely to see that it's now considered cool and good to be a vehement lefty who loves socialism but if you called people like me a stupid naive cunt and dick-rode the reasonable centre between 2016 and 2024 I DO remember because I'm not above petty fuckery. Anyway. Welcome, comrade.

I know he does this all the time now, but it really cannot be stressed enough how openly, blatantly racist this man is, and the people in our industry who made excuses for him and kowtowed to him and his family connections should hang their heads in shame

If you have a Netflix account and time this weekend I would highly recommend checking out Guillermo del Toro's visually stunning new adaptation of FRANKENSTEIN. I caught it at the London Film Festival and it's a lovely reminder of some of the old-fashioned craft of filmmaking
