The Referee’s a Wanker is the first episode of Inside No.9 Series 5, and it really doesn’t feel like it’s been over a year since Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith brought us their incredible live Halloween special in 2018. If you missed that, then it’ll be on the iPlayer and you really need to check […]
IT Chapter Two‘s existence was confirmed just before 2017’s IT was released in cinemas, hence why Warner slotted in a reference to that film being just “Chapter One“, thus indicating that the second would come in due course. However, while I knew I’d see it at some point, I wasn’t in a huge rush, and […]
Fugitive of the Judoon is the fifth episode of Doctor Who Series 12, and brings the rhino-faced space police to present day Gloucester. Tour guide Ruth thought she knew everything about the place, but not about the impending visit from ol’ horn-face who was looking for the fugitive. Is it her other half, Neil? Cake […]
Star Trek: Picard focuses on Enterprise Captain Jean-Luc Picard’s next chapter in his life, but we already know that’s accounted for by Patrick Stewart appearing as Professor X in the X-Men movies, as well as CIA director Avery Bullock in American Dad, and occasional appearances in Family Guy, including as Avery, himself, and baby Susie […]
Uncut Gems is a film I’ve been looking forward to immensely since I heard about it, as The Safdie Brothers, who direct and co-write this, also brought us 2017’s Good Time, starring Robert Pattinson, which was a wonderful movie. It begins at the Welo Mine in Ethopia, back in autumn 2010 where… uncut gems are […]
Ragnarok is nothing to do with Thor or any Marvel movies, showing us the following text at the start: “Ragnarok: In Norse mythology, the definition of the end of the world. It begins with natural disasters, and culminates in the great battle between gods and the giants.”
Oh, and Midnight City by M83 in the background; just one of their tracks in this.

In fact, all of the episodes so far are on there, and while there are a couple that miss the mark, more often than not, they are a hit, and when they hit big, they’re a must-see.

However, while I knew I’d see it at some point, I wasn’t in a huge rush, and the fact that the film runs 11 minutes short of three hours also put paid to me watching it on the big screen. I find it’s rare that a film needs to take more than two hours in length, and in recent years for those films which go way over, Interstellar certainly had a lengthy tale to tell, while Blade Runner 2049 could easily have been shorter, but then they’d have put the extra content back in at some point, and for a film like that, if you’re going to see it, you may as well watching it on the big screen.
New DVD, Blu-ray, 3D and 4K releases January 27th 2020 are as follows:
Praxeus is the sixth episode of Doctor Who Series 12…
What connects a missing astronaut, birds behaving strangely in Peru and a US naval officer who washes up on a Madagascar beach? The Doctor, Yaz, Ryan and Graham split up to investigate these mysterious events across 21st-century planet Earth, but as the mystery deepens and lives are put at risk, they face a deadly race against time to save humanity.
Fugitive of the Judoon is the fifth episode of Doctor Who Series 12, and brings the rhino-faced space police to present day Gloucester.
Tour guide Ruth thought she knew everything about the place, but not about the impending visit from ol’ horn-face who was looking for the fugitive. Is it her other half, Neil? Cake store worker Allan thinks it is because he has the hots for Ruth. Can it be that straight-forward?
Downhill stars Will Ferrell and Julia Louis-Dreyfus as themselves, no doubt… again.
Barely escaping an avalanche during a family ski vacation in the Alps, this married couple is thrown into disarray as they are forced to reevaluate their lives and how they feel about each other.
The Woman in the Window stars Amy Adams as Anna Fox, an agoraphobic woman living alone in New York, who begins spying on her new neighbours only to witness a disturbing act of violence, and it’s as the trailer pans out that you see it’s just a load of ridiculous jump scares that soon starts to get annoying.
Irresistible centers around Democrat strategist Gary Zimmer (Steve Carell – The Morning Show), who helps a retired veteran (Chris Cooper) run for mayor in a small, conservative Midwest town.
The trailer made me laugh loads, and knowing that this comes from The Daily Show‘s Jon Stewart is making me love it even more. Plus, the cast looks superb.
The Lodge is similar to Crawl in that the trailer has several elements being timed to its soundtrack and looking damn cool for it.
Grace (Riley Keough – The House That Jack Built) is a soon-to-be-stepmum, who’s snowed in with her fiance Richard’s (Richard Armitage – Into The Storm) two children at a remote holiday village. Just as relations finally begin to thaw between the trio, strange and frightening events threaten to summon psychological demons from her strict religious childhood.
