    A delicious Sunday tea of roast chicken thighs and chips, with lashings of tomato ketchup

    Comment


      This evening's "entertainment", such as it was, was "Blade Runner 2049".

      Stone me.

      Slow ain't the word for it.

      And about as atmospheric as the dark side of the moon.

      Full of wind & piss signifying nothing.

      As someone once said.
      When the fun stops, STOP.

        I've got it, but haven't yet set aside the time to watch it. Sounds like I'll need to make sure I'm properly caffeinated too

          Tonight's partial entertainment was Gone Girl (2014), which is OK, but I was feeling a bit tired and stopped it after an hour, as there was still about ninety minutes to go. I'll watch the rest of it later in the week.

          Goodnight all

            Saw it on the flight to Oz, but took me till near the end to get the gist of what was going on as I hadn't seen the first. All boobs and bums were pixelated out, as well as any swearing or mild blasphemy dubbed over just to add to the enjoyment. Goshdarnit!

                  And, as is the way of things these days, if one's setup doesn't have the centre channel then turning up the volume to hear the dialogue means that you get deafened when the effects come in.

                  I turned the subtitles on which fixed it.

                  Unlike MS I've seen each & every version of the original, including the workprint.

                  This pile of tulipe doesn't compare.

                      What excellent taste in literature you have!

                      His second book, Reflex Action, is also very good
