There are so many bad Xmas flicks I can see myself opting out of yuletide screenings next year, but my last festive double bill was surprisingly fun.
I'm not so charmed by how 'Comfort and Joy'(Comfort and Joy - Part 1/7 - YouTube) makes light of a real-life battle over business territory...
When it came out in 1992, Heimat 2: Chronicle of a Generation was the longest film ever exhibited in a mainstream release. I love all twenty-five hours of that masterpiece, but I wouldn't expect anyone to believe me until they've seen it themselves (ideally in the 13 parts it was later released...
And I like being forewarned about notorious local character types and infamous areas. This is not to say I need to avoid either on my travels, only that I like to be prepared. Brussels gets such a bad write-up from some people that I've elected to avoid it so far, although I could still be...
Tried to watch Nobody Knows today, a film based on an 80s news story about four Tokyo children left to fend for themselves when their mother leaves them. I made it half-way through its 140 minutes, and whilst it wasn't boring it felt too insignificant to finish.

!Salutations Cecil!
What better place to share your nascent journeys of the imagination than a place like this, where people love reading so much they feel compelled to talk about it too? You'll be hard pressed to find a better environment for exhibiting your literary forays, so I hope you...
Total Recall managed a reasonable approximation of Wii Fit, in the scene where Arnie comes home to find his 'wife' practicing a tennis serve-presumably wearing motion sensors-whilst watching a hologram of someone illustrating good technique. I don't think there was much wrong with this...
Good news for the technologically fashionable in the west, having their Chinese counterparts do some live product testing for them before they get a chance to decide to purchase one of these EPDs or not.
I can see myself having fun with them due to the novelty factor, but would need internet...
