Watched Rampart tonight. Pretty decent and Woody Harrelson is excellent. Just couldn't really feel anything for any of the characters and IMO the ending was shit.

watched Drive, loved it.

I've read the book and never saw the film. I keep meaning to, but with a few exceptions I never really like films after reading the book.

The book expressed a lot of the things people take for granted about becoming or being a parent. Partly summed up by the Ed Byrne joke '..she had the look of a woman who gave up her career to have kids and the kids turned out to be shite.' Quite a controversial subject and I remember the author getting a lot of criticism at the time, partly due to the fact that he was a bloke.

Is the focus of the film different?

Saw J.Edgar yesterday, was quite dissaponted. I was expecting more from Clint Eastwood and Di Caprio.

I think the movie drags to much, perphaps if it was around 30mins shorter it would have been better

It seems weird that they are making a new spiderman but I can see why they are doing. It's mainly because Marvel have seen how well DC have done with Batman/The Dark Knight. Tbh The dark knight in my opinion is the best superhero film ever and I'm sure a lot would agree. I can't wait for Spiderman though. It looks great and it's good that Andrew Garfield can act. Toby McGuire was shocking.

    • Audrey Hobert getting a lot of traction lately and new single on Friday. Wonder if she could be round next summer.
    • Think Pulp are optimistic, not in terms of size but just that they've been on the road (albeit not intensively) for 3 years in a row and it feels like EotR is the deliberate end of the cycle.   Would be fairly surprised if they're active next year.
    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
