In honour of @crobertcargill.bsky.social, I popped into the Warhammer shop in Chester. I don't play, but love looking at the models, especially when there are fully-formed table displays on show.

No photos from inside allowed, unfortunately, but there were some glorious dioramas to view.

"Share a 90s movie you think deserves more love..."

BIO-DOME is a stupid comedy movie that knows exactly how stupid it is and revels in it. Pauly Shore's best movie (I know, I know), with him and Baldwin being genuinely charming as the two leads, supported by a more than able cast.

#328 - PASSENGERS (2016)

Directed by Morten Tyldum
Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Chris Pratt, Michael Sheen, Laurence Fishburne, Andy Garcia

Well-acted but divisive sci-fi. Is it a romantic story or one of manipulation and removal of autonomy?
