I've been watching Black Spot on Netflix.

Christ that's a dangerous place - it must be the French equivalent of Midsummer!

It'll be a must see, although I think that it will be a superb parody if itself while at the same time being itself. 

It might have to be done just for giggles and kicks.

The Boys on Amazon is quite enjoyable. Very NSFW (not suitable for wives if they don’t like the c word and lots is other R rated stuff). Keith Urban’s cockney accent is super dodgy though.

Just watched the Great Hack on Netflix. Interesting doc about the Cambridge Analytica scandal. I couldn't help feeling CA were only thrown under the bus once those employing their services got found out.

I'd like to have seen Facebook get some more scrutiny, too, but maybe that's a different story. Zuckerberg came across as a lying slimeball. Which he probably is.

I watched the first episode and a bit of the second but didn't really get it. Maybe I'll try again. I'm keeping the full package as we use more than two devices

How shit is current music ?

Anyway a new Tool and Bon Iver album to look forward to ,but anyway heavily played the last few months is this



The note he hits at 5:50 !!!!!!!


Also listening a lot to mike Messa famous for this



But his voice makes all of his covers pretty decent

We went to see Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. As a piece of film-art it is beautifully done and there are some very clever bits. But it all was a bit "is that it?" at the end. It reminded me of Lost in Translation, where you wait the whole film for it to speed up the pace, but it never does.

The Matrix came out 20 years ago. Still a great film and one I can always watch again. Not so much the sequels.....

According to the press there is to be a 4th film in the series with Reeves and Carrie-Ann Moss again. So it will have to be set before they both die in the third film. Unless there is another whole level of mind games to go on after the end of the third film - did they really die or was it all another layer of the matrix?

Was that a crap translator film with Nicole Kidman and possibly Sean Penn in it?

If so I'm due a couple of hours too.

Currently watching The Capture on BBC/iPlayer. Not really sure if I think it's any good because it has an interesting premise but there are some glaring factual errors in the story which I find are grating.

We watched Snatch recently and were similarly impressed by Brad Pitt's verbal gymnastics while attempting a southern Irish accent.
