Anyhoo - yup it was mint! Bobbi was the best female action character, I've seen since Ripley in Aliens, I even think she may have been better - loved her raging in the early series. Averasala in the books is tremendous, swears like a trooper. books are different enough but characters spot on, that said only into second book now so no idea of real spoilers but it’s subtly different enough so far.

NJS 4411 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Should have known with it being Amazon they'd tone down her swearing which is a shame - would compete with the main man in District 9 for sweariest character ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10972 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 On 06/02/2022 at 12:40, Gemmill said: Murderville on Netflix is a decent laugh. Will Arnett plays a homicide detective and every episode he gets a new celebrity partner. I don't think Arnett knows who he's getting, and the celebrity doesn't have a script so they're basically just improvising. By the end of the episode, the celeb has to guess at who the murderer is. It sounds nonsense, but Arnett is fucking great and the guests so far have all been good too. It's an Americanised version of Murder in Successville. But the UK version had reality tv celebri-whos and was all the funnier for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 14069 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 The Cuphead Show - Absolutely masterful 40s animation with some of the most perfectly timed visual gags you’ll ever see. I’m buckled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 22008 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Saw the trailer for that and it looks shit. Also watched that new Charlie Brooker interactive animation. Turboshite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After being subject to it for 8 years with the kids the last thing i want to watch is an adult cartoon. The Brooker thing though, i just dont get it at all.

Renton 22008 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Students in suburbia (we are England) right now on BBC about Jesmond student scum spoiling it for us middle aged-class types. Worth a watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 15737 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 It's long been a studenty area so I do wonder if it's really significantly worse nowadays or if the middle-aged/-class types just have an outlet for their frustrations now. Will give it a watch later anyway, cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will give it a watch later anyway, cheers Been a huge rise in student houses and HMOs in Jesmond last decade. The footage on this is pretty bad, looks more akin to Magaluf than anything I remember. It's odd, Jesmond is Newcastles most affluent suburb but has more antisocial behaviour orders than anywhere else in the North East. On paper worse than Meadowell, Pennywell, Byker, even Boldon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s feral now, and it’s all the Hoorays/Rugger Buggers - the area between Osbourne Road, Osbourne Avenue and Jesmond Dene Rd sounds like the University Challenge episode of the Young Ones, full of braying cunts.

Meenzer 15737 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Ouch @ both. I somehow had no idea despite relative proximity in Gosforth whenever I'm home & using exactly those streets on my running routes. Mind, I tend to run there at lunchtime or earlier so I suppose they won't have surfaced for the day yet... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 43115 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Aye, they usually start surfacing around 2pm , the first gentle rattle of those fucking Orange scooters going by with two Henriettas on. I wouldn’t live there for love nor money now, whereas Heaton… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 22008 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Just finished Winter on Fire. A brilliant hard watch made ever so more poignant by recent events in Ukraine.
