  1. I've been meaning to see Coco for some time now as I thought Inside Out was really good (I'm probably going to skip The Good Dinosaur). To keep things varied, I might watch it next actually.
  2. Its actually a really good example of how to do a sequel to a beloved film IMO. It had just the right amount of fan service.
  3. Saw Dawn of the Dead (not the remake) and Doctor Sleep the other day and really enjoyed both. I'm a bit surprised Doctor Sleep doesn't have a higher Rotten Tomato rating actually. Its 80%+ material IMO.
  4. Saw Bubba Ho-Tep and 25th Hour. Enjoyed both but I'm definitely in the mood for films more like the former.
  5. I saw The Master for the first time recently and thought both Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman were outstanding. Both definitely deserving of the nominations they got.
  6. I saw Half Baked the other day for the first time and really enjoyed it. IMO more people should look into watching more comedy films at the moment.
  7. Saw a couple of films recently: Hard Boiled - for a film pretty much built on slow motion sequences, I was really impressed with how effective they used the effect without fatigue setting in. Bones - starring Snoop Dogg. I've never seen this before. It definitely doesn't take itself too seriously and if you are OK with that in a horror film, it might be worth a look (particularly for Snoop Dogg and Blaxploitation film fans). Hobo with a Shotgun - I enjoyed the energy and eccentricity of the villains in this film in particular. Again, probably not for everyone but you
  8. Express headlines like below are always to funny to read. Their sense of humour extends to their choice of photographs too (see David Davis wearing shades in the article below ). https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1290014/EU-Brexit-latest-news-trade-deal-uk-David-Davis-Michel-Barnier-update-latest
  9. Brexit talks resume tomorrow as well. If talks break down this month, we could leave on no deal.
  10. Ah yes, The Express. The #1 source on all things EU/Brexit related.
  11. It does have some pretty inspired tracks.
  12. Late to the party a bit but I just saw the Arrow finale. I suppose it was tastefully done and there probably wasn't anywhere left for the series to go so it made sense to call it a day. Not sure if I'm pumped for the upcoming Superman and Lois Lane tv series though.
  13. I saw the film Upgrade just now and really enjoyed it. It's a pretty good example of what can be achieved on a shoestring budget IMO.
  14. On the subject of futuristic racers, I liked Extreme G on the N64 back in the day. Does that make me a bad person?
  15. Super Mario Land 2 IMO is pretty underrated. I like its hub and I like that a lot of the enemies in it are still unique to the game to this day. I guess Space Zone prefigured the SMG 1+2 space theme much later?
  16. Tony Hawk's 1-4 were all pretty legit from memory.
  17. The AKI wrestling games on the N64 are held in pretty high regard, especially No Mercy. There's still an active modding community for No Mercy I believe. Great rosters for both WCW and WWF back then too.
  18. Better late than never I suppose. A remaster of Sunshine would improve it quite a lot since a lot of its shortcomings were technical (washed out visuals, framerate drops, camera). It could benefit from more levels though.
  19. With the internet connection probably being too slow to stream anything in HD resolutions behind a free VPN this weekend, I'm tempted to dust down my electric guitar and see what happens.
  20. An inverted row using a broom between two chairs... Definitely tempted to give this a try.
  21. Regular exercise is great, especially cardio. Anything that gets the heart pumping, really. Try doing some sets of jumping jacks, climbers or butt kicks. Apparently cardio is good for brain function too so you may find your work performance and concentration improving too doing it in the Morning. Also consider making lifestyle tweaks to help improve your quality of sleep. I've started drinking a glass of milk and eating a Banana before bed and I'm convinced my quality of sleep has improved (Science seems to back this up too). Not sure where you live and whether you get regular sunlight w
