Title: Shamless (but not not self) Pimping Portobello Film Festival.
Post by: Tweak72 on 03 August, 2007, 01:27:00 PM
Every year in the Portobello area there is a rather cool film festival that is free to get in to. If living London and you like seeing new talent or stuff from around the world that isnâ??t your main stream stuff then this is the thing for you.

My friend, Mr John Wheeler just happens to be showing his films on the evening of Wednesday evening during the special "Horror and extreme cinema" evening not for the easily offended or faint hearted.

But its not all about horror its about film. there is a cool PDF programme avalible on the web site which will give you an idea of what to expect.

Rubbish.I have been reading building your own home type of magazines recently.

Thats it.

Contemporary illustration magazine 3x3, Creative Review and other graphic art and design periodicals at work.

Recently bought these GNs off  amazon.fr- plot's fairly basic (easy enough to follow visually even if it's all in French ;) ) however the artwork (which lets face it, is the real draw) is exquisite.



..and The Wintermen (sadly on hiatus at the mo') which IMHumbleO is as brilliant in terms of words *and* pictures as anything produced by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips in the last five years (Sleeper & CRIMINAL).

Bit of Private Eye now and then, the odd issue of Rolling Stone/Q/NME whenever I have to melt my brain for a train journey.

The Observer Music Monthly's rather good, mind.

Thats a funny question as I remember buying a local Tabloid rag ( Picture and People Maagzine.) for quite awhile before giving it up.

This was during the time that I was only brought handful of 2000AD magazines and that was that.

The quality this type of stick magazine had diminished with it's influx of advertisements abnd the tabliod stories got worse and worse.

Incidently the nudity that featured on nearly every page was another thing that started to ruin these magazines. As there was once atime that both these maagzines only had nude centre-folds ( female.) while the rest was semi-truthful news stories.

Edge.
Various game mags for the DVD's and demo discs cos I'm so despeartely lonely (One time I threw away the Official PS2 mag on the way back from the shop and I almost went back to get it back out of the bin as it felt like the single most wasteful act I'd ever committed).
New Humanist cos its like 50 pages and it only comes out every other month and it makes me feel all clever inside.
I had a subscription to The Wire (music mag, not Wired) cos you got free CDs with it. Won't be renewing cos I'm not interested in yet another set of essays on Daydream Nation or Wolf Eyes.
New Statesman probably once a year.
My friend's sister's copies of Kerrang.
Various comics, although I often lose interest after a couple of issues.
Grauniad mainly out of force of habit.

  The Wire magazine.I like some left field music but i dont want an entire magazine devoted to it. Its like the magazine and its readership want to gain kudos by reading it and listening to the music featured.


   They are never any good those free sampler cds that you get with music magazines .I have completely given up with music magazines except for Mojo which i buy occaisonally depending on the features .The rest forget it.

  When you compare the present format of Q magazine to how it was up until a couple of years ago its a travesty.It seems to be aiming itself at a much younger readership than it used to hence the lack of in depth articles.

   Goodbye   Q   magazine.

  Goodbye   Word  magazine .

  I hardly buy  cds from new artists either .

  I am glad that the standard of comics and graphic novels and books etc have not dropped in comparison.If anything they just get better.  I  am eternally grateful for that.

Lots and lots of US comics. But not so many Super-Hero books any more. (Every US comic isn't a superhero comic you know.)

I get errors when I click the voting link....

but I have been buying The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born.

It's by Marvel but it's essentially a prequel to the Stephen Kings Dark Tower Novels. This particular series retells the Mejis segment of Wizard and Glass (cutting some bits out but also including extra stuff). The following arcs will deal with completely new adventures up until Jericho hill.
