CATASTROPHE just turned up on Love Film. I suspect it was on C4 previously. Kookie sit com fave Sharon Horgan and the quite edible Rob Delaney in mismatched couple expecting baby and wedding high jinks. Painfully observed but really funny.

Ah cool. They were the guests on this weeks Richard Herring podcast. This will mAke the show easier to track down.

Accidentally had a major character death from the new Discworld novel spoiled for myself and it hit me at least as badly as Pterry's leaving us, as does knowing this is it - the last time I'll visit new territory in what was a huge part of the imaginary landscapes of my childhood.  That's my morning ruined.

Guardian review?
It was pretty atrocious.

I don't really care of you take it seriously or not.

"Known number of deaths while claiming incapacity benefits nears 100,000."

There's your Tory government right there. Scum.

I endorse this message. The book is astonishing.

A lot of criticism seemed to just be people didn't like Simon Pegg and didn't quite get that you're not supposed to.

The number of times I've tried to explain this to people...

Ohh! Missed a few here! If you're still waiting, let me know!

Hmmm... 12 minutes from posting to getting an answer. Not good enough I say! We need to be quicker than that! ;-)

I really liked the security guard/exorcist 

"You can't punch ectoplasm."

[Housebound]

Housebound – A quite funny and nonsense New Zealand comedy horror about a girl under house arrest at her mothers possibly haunted house.

Honeymoon – Meh! Not scary and pretty much goes nowhere. Features "You know nuffink John Snow" girl and Frankenstein from Penny Dreadful.

Unfriended – Interesting attempt to do a full film as if viewed via the web. Imagine the Ring via a laptop and your pretty much there. Pure gash! After watching your mates die via webcam I would have thought at least one person would attempt to log out, close laptop and leave house. Doesn't even deserve a shit pun its that bad.

I absolutely loved Housebound.

Jovus, there are some miserable, cynical bastards on this thread... and that's *me* saying that..!

Last night I finally sat down for The Thing double bill. I've seen Carpenter's original a few times, but this was my first time watching the prequel.

I prefer the Carpenter version, but with all the references to the original, I kept thinking you were referring to the Howard Hawks version (full title - The Thing From Another World - which is what the Dark Horse comic was also called).

I've got both issues of that somewhere. Lovely stuff.

That's fantastic.

Did it just teleport there through some fireball or something?
