Really not a fan of Ben Stiller, but gave Tropic Thunder a go after reviews from places I normally trust adn it is very very good. Maybe not as clever as some reviewers were making out (it is Ben Stiller after all) and yeah Stiller and Black are annoying but they're meant to be. Worth seeing for Robert Downey Jr's perfomance and Tom Cruise willingly and seemingly happily making an absolute tit of himself. It makes you cringe like you've never cringed before, but again its supposed to and, as over used as this phrase is, fair play to him.

Steve Coogan, also excellent.

And his exit is even better.

I watched The Strangers last night. I f**kin loved it. Dunno if its been discussed already, but the tension was awesome. It was creepy as hell for a good hour. The ending was a little bit of an anticlimax IMHO, but I can forgive it that for the fact that the good hour was so good.

major spoiler here.

Liv Tyler - "Why are you doing this?"

The Strangers "Because you were (at) home"

Watched Wolf Creek last night after several recommendations from friends. Utter, utter shite IMHO.

trapped by a psycho killer, you manage to get a car- what should you do? 1) drive away or 2) push the c**t over a cliff?

you wake up, hog tied in a shed - its sunny, you climb out of the window - its dark again

you shoot a psycho killer in the neck, he drops like a sack of shit do you 1) make sure he's really dead 2)tie him up in case he isnt dead, but you dont have the stomach to finish him off or 3) hit him weakly twice with a rifle and leave him there

there are about a dozen cars in a shed, you manage to get one started - guess which one has a killer on the back seat? - bingo!

    • When are  the stage splits ??  
    • 13th Primavera (Thursday was definitely making me feel like this was the cursed year).  Blood Orange was such a party by the end of their set but we all knew that rain storm was approaching.  So gutted Massive Attack didn't play after the false hope of a new rescheduling, especially knowing that Elizabeth Fraser & Horace Andy were backstage with them!  Managed a bit of Melt Banana but was just so over the weather by that point.   Friday was awesome, Rilo Kiley were so much fun.  Never been the biggest Cure fan but made the effort for them after Thursday & Robert Smith sounds like he did back in the 80s.  PinkPantheress & Viagra Boys were also great.   The highlight for me was Sudan Archives on the Saturday, she was stunning & with the Olivia Rodrigo surprise set too it made up for the Thursday sh*t show.  Dijon & Knocked Loose also superb.   Shoutout to Cardiacs on the Tuesday too, they were so LOUD, played a storming set.    
    • OK, never mind, I'll take normal Nine Inch Nails.
    • Probably my least favourite of the five editions I've been to, but still plenty good enough for me to go again. Weirdly, I was just totally running out of stamina a lot earlier into the night than I remember happening in the past. I feel like I missed a lot of the weirder sets on the smaller stages as I was just totally cooked. Not Primavera's fault, obviously. Maybe I'm just getting old - or maybe I need to pace my drinking better...   Anyway - is David Byrne a realistic get for next year? Certainly hoping so.
    • watching clips of the cure in Barcelona, wow 2 hours 25 minute set. That's gonna be tough on the Sunday but can't bloody wait for it
