So… watched this and… yeah it’s good! Very good. Weird but good. Vampire Blues movie. But about half-way through I kept exclaiming OMG THOSE ARMS (Sled, you’d appreciate them). Like works of art. And then I realised that Michael B Jordon was once sweet young Wallace on The Wire and… mind blown. So now I’m rewatching The Wire for the umpteenth time – the BEST TV SERIES ever. How’s you week going?

Just finished watching this mini-series (Apple TV) and my goodness it was wonderful. Excellent cast. Why can’t all tv be this good? What have you been watching?

I watched the first series of Loot when it first came out in 2022 and quite enjoyed it. Then saw there was a new season, started watching it, and realised I remembered fuck all from the first one. Well, next to nothing or next to nothing enough. So, starting over… does this happen to you? On the positive side I guess it means that you can just rewatch films and series over and over as if for the first time.

Enjoyed these two very different short series this week. Wicked Little Letters surprised me, I wasn’t expecting it to be so clever and fun. British black comedy at its best with a terrific cast.
Kaos was also fun and started off strong but got a bit tired towards the end. The best part for me was when a drone shot of the Plaza de España came on the screen. Turns out they filmed a lot of it in Sevilla and Málaga back in 2022. And it looks like there will be a second season.
