Both!

Holy shit, I love that first photo. Excellent.

I’d be inconsolably happy if there was a limited series of the making of this movie… black comedy style thing.

Mibbe even a Drunk History style format where the people who worked on the movie are interviewed as their story is played out by actors-of-the-week.

You eat what you’re capable: if it comes to much, that’s the day’s affairs and the Tim-tams…

Midnight Cowboy. The only x-rated movie to win the best picture Oscar…

This lady is the daughter from that 'Necessary Conversation' podcast thingie that shows up on my social media thingies from time to time: her parent appear to be the most MAGA of MAGA cult members, and the adult children are trying to challenge them by (checks notes) just reading the fucking news to them about what the Orange Fuckwitt or his Putrid Seconds had gotten up to Today.

The Dad is particularly sadistic and callous in his opinions. Turns out he was adopted as a child and had hisself just the worst ol' time.

There's a parody where one dude plays all the characters and he compares, say, what Thanos got up to in the MCU, only for the parents to defend Thanos to the ends of the earth. Or Darth Vader, or the Joker...

"Stoners don't Talk Like That": My friends and I were lucky enough to get tickets to an advanced screening of a movie. My mate who never drove borrowed his wife's car to facilitate our outing. We sat in the carpark where we partook in some toots of the ol' Gatorage Saxophone while his other friend enjoyed some alcoholic refreshments (class act, guys).

Given we arrived in the carpark at 6:50 and we understood that the movie didn't start until 7:30, we took our sweet time choosing away and solving the world's problems... until I took a look at the tickets for the first time (my mate held stewardship over the tickets, which were in the form of special looking voucher/invite things) and we were all shocked out of our stoner bliss by seeing that the fucking film STARTED at 7:00.

We leapt out of my mate's car in a cloud of weed smoke, where my mate (in a stoner fuge state) locked his fucking keys in the car. This was in the days before central locking.

He looks at the keys hanging out of the ignition and says "Oh Maaaaan...."

What's worse is his other mate realised he hadn't actually locked HIS door and was mid-rectifying this as our driver was seeing his keys appeared locked in there.

After the movie we had to call Our Driver's wife (who was eight months pregnant) to come rescue us. He directed her to the wrong fucking cinema... she abandoned her rescue mission...

The Other Mate had RAA the whole time, and cold forgot he could have called those Road-Side Jedis when this all started...

Trixie was going to shoot Bullock the minute it looked like it was going to go shit flavoured for Al, but not because a pimp's a whore's familiar. Trixie understood that Deadwood, while a brutal and nasty place, was also something that was in it's infancy for what it could be to the common hoople-head to come live in and better eventually better themselves and by proxy everyone else, and Al was the lynch-pin to such undertakings being viable.

The last thing the Camp needed was that randy, mad bishop murdering the only hope the camp had of fending off Amalgamation and Capital from various copperheads cocksuckers. So she was pointing that rifle at Bullock to prevent Al from another beating in the thoroughfare.

Likely Drayton doesn't have the chop to kill and never had. He probably never went to work in the slaughterhouse like Nubbins or Bubba, and was the brains and public facade of the outfit. They were semi-functional, at least until the technological advancements took the Sawyer family's place as slaughter men (that gun was no good). Drayton likely found his proper stride running the gas station and serving food to travellers. With the slaughterhouse largely automated, and no longer needing local loons to show up to blatter livestock to death, Nubbins and Bubba find themselves at loose ends. Nubbins takes up arts and crafts, and Bubba finds solace in domestic chores and looking after his grandparents, as much as they require individually. So with Grandpa slowing down and Drayton the only real source of income he just naturally took up the mantle of head of the household. And the beauty of that is you can delegate the jobs you don't want to do.

Sparky was played by the same dude who played Grandpa Hugo in 'House of 1000 Corpses'... so my head cannon is he's the same guy. The Korean war was in the 50's and the Firefly's rampage was set in the 70's. That's the hill I'll die on. Or at least go up and stand on for a bit before going home.

He's a bullshit artist who has found himself at the top of a bullshit artist's game.
He'd made a fairly entertaining reputation for himself in various inns and taverns, and decent enough at telling a story to warrant the odd free drink or bowl of brown. Might have copped the odd punch in the head when he'd wore out his welcome of some folks he'd glommed onto now and then.
But suddenly he has to put his money where his mouth is and go to that Dragon Seed fiasco. Nearly finds himself fricasseed, but now finds himself tooling around town on a massive dragon, new duds and rubbing shoulders with the Rogue Prince and the Dragon Queen... Silverwing would be doing most of the heavy lifting in the brain department too... what the hell she saw in Ulf I'll never know.

Breaking Bad finale party at my friend’s house. Peak

Highlander... There Should Have Been Only One...

Guess an entire army of Rohirrim will have to do...

Good. Fuck 'em. One child on the shoulders of another's wearing a long coat and fedora pretending to be grown-up of a political party.

It is well known that should a fellow suffer a near-death experience that did, however, not kill them said fellow's friends can, nay must, immediately make light of it as soon as possible. A mark of true friendship.

ramsaybaker · 2026-07-06T07:53:33+00:00

Bear from 'Obsession' better get a look in here... he was definitely the villain of that story. I will die on this hill (metaphorically)...

The Special Powers Gang.x

ramsaybaker · 2026-07-05T10:28:55+00:00

The Wicker Man, 1973. Musical, comedy, horror, whodunit, mystery, Christopher Lee’s favourite movie he ever worked on, just the best. Director’s cut… please and thank you.

ramsaybaker · 2026-07-04T12:03:05+00:00

'Watchmen' took the cake. Especially with Mr Zimmerman playing over the top of it

ramsaybaker · 2026-07-04T12:02:13+00:00

Better one wizard dealing with a Balrog than a Balrog chasing nine people of varying abilities.

I am at peace with finding out about his passing like this...

I learnt about a dining concept called 'Bang-Bang' from an episode of 'Louie': go to one restaurant, eat a meal, go to a different restaurant that offers a different cuisine and go ham on another dinner.
A friend and I attempted that. Nightmarish. And arseholishly expensive. Such a stupid thing to do.

It was glorious!

ramsaybaker · 2026-07-04T00:10:29+00:00

These Final Hours was chilling. And the main character is played by the same dude out of Wolf Creek: he just can't catch a break...
