Strong women scare you do they Thrylls? Prefer your victims more submissive? 

Carol's one of the coolest things about this show.

Wow. Simply, wow.

The most brutal bit of TV I've ever witnessed.

Finally got my ass in gear and the Ibis Budget is sold out. Silly boy.

Film & TV / Re: Last movie watched...

It's been comedy season in the McNasty house.

Vacation A sequel/remake of the National Lampoon's movie - a description which should send you running to the hills - but is in fact brilliant. Very dark humour, crude, offensive. Worth a watch as long as you can stomach plenty of paedo jokes.

It's a Disaster A considerably more mature comedy about a group of friends who get stuck in a house during an apocalyptic type event. It's This is the End for adults. Great script and worth a watch.

Get Hard Will Ferrell & Kevin Hart star in a Will Ferrell movie that pretty much does everything you need it do. Funny and worth a watch.

The Wedding Ringer Kevin Hart again. Has a hint of The Hangover to it. Thumbs up.

It's this fallacy nonsense that really gets me back up, and probably a lot of other left leaning people too.

The right and the media readily dismiss sensible left-wing ideas based on the principle that the socialist utopia is unachievable, therefore all left ideas are a joke. Using the extreme views of a small splattering of hard-lefters to discredit the moderate left is just bollocks. Grrrrr. Really make me loony!

The Guardian has been creating clickbait in order to drive up their web traffic, which entails baiting their lefty readership so they keep revisiting pages for the debates in the comments sections, but the end result has been to destroy their reputation for impartiality.

I think you've nailed it there.

To be honest I'd pretty much given up on politics until Corbs came along. I was increasingly starting to believe that we are in fact fucked. That a corporate controlled Blade Runner-esc future was really coming our way. The hope he offered got me interested again and I've been devouring The Guardian and Independent websites daily. The click baiting works but they've sold their soul. Just like the Blairites themselves, who needs a Guardian if they ain't for the left.

I think they've kinda realised that too, IndigoPrime. Already you can see the slight change of tack on the site. Even Toynbee is trying to back peddle slowly. In a months time they'll be claiming they were with Jezza all along. Fuckers.

I've had me a hoot these last few weeks on The Guardian comments section. The whole Corbyn coverage from The G has been, apart from a small handful of articles, an all out attack on the bearded one and everything he stands for. Lies, misinformation, skewing the facts to support its agenda. The paper has disgraced itself.

I've got four 2 page scripts for any artists out there who fancy illustrating a short story to appear in October's upcoming Hallowscream. Admittedly three of them are mine but what's the point of being an editor if you can't pimp your own work  :)

Please PM you lovely pencil pirates.

I've also got around thirty larger script submissions from loads of writers for those feeling extra brave. Pick a subject, we probably have a script about it. Just remember, it's NOT for the nervous!

This looks so rubbish. Maybe I'm getting old but they all look like they've barely passed puberty. I don't want teen angst in an FF movie. (PS. I loved the 2005 one. Didn't take itself too seriously = win)

Slightly let down by the first episode. After that trailer I was expecting full on carnage but we just continued with the story. Just be falling for hype again. Still one of the best TV shows going.

As I loved Total War with history of battles, but surprised to find out there is new version of Total War; Total War: WARHAMMER!!


This makes me very happy.

I enjoyed Enemy Unknown but they can do one if they're going PC only route.

Recently found a similar game called Massive Chalice which is currently free on Xbox Gold. It's like a Game of Thrones version of XCom!

Yay, Chris. It wasn't all in my head.

I did a bit more research and found a few nutters still going at it via play-by-email instead.

Reminds me a bit of a version of XCOM that popped up a few years ago where you'd play a turn and submit it to a server somewhere, then wait for the other player to make their moves and submit. That was pretty cool too.
