Ah yes, the Staffy. God's practical joke on hoomans. "I'm going to create a doggo that is like a wrecking ball, crossed with a hurricane, that is needy, in a small muscly package, and wrapped in a fur coat."

  • Over the last few days, I have been rewatching Callan. I'm up to the series 3 opener; 'Where Else Could I go?'. Reminds me a little of Skyfall (or rather Skyfall reminds me of this episode). Following the events of the series 2 final episode, Callan…

  • Has anyone read the Mike Hammer books? I have picked up four of them in a sale, and was wondering if they have to be read in a particular order.

  • If Fallout was going to pay homage to a Bond film, might as well be one of the best Bond films.

  • It's been a few months, but I do believe it's Naschy Time once again. It's taken me this long to track down another of his films, this time it's... Curse Of The Devil (1973) Don't you just hate getting hairs in your mouth? Naschy returns to…

  • A few weeks back, I watched The Protector. Now I have seen another vintage Jackie Chan film... Armour Of God 2: Operation Condor My new favourite Jackie Chan film (previously that had been Who Am I?). I loved the fight in the wind tunnel.

  • Lords Of The Fallen (PS5) Finished the game. The last boss took me by surprise, it was surprisingly easy to defeat. Now I am going back for NG+0, to get as many other trophies as I can, before going on to NG+1 for the platinum.... if I can get it.
