Skins: A shower of bastards?
“Pah! Nuts to continuity! We don’t want it to be believable, we want it to be edgy and cool! Who needs character motivation anyway?! As long as they smoke a lot and remain unwashed then people won’t care that we’re just making it up as we go along!”
Possibly a direct quote from the head writer of Skins.
Danny Glover. A great guy.
Another one?! Really?! Well, yes apparently. That’s right, Jigsaw is back once again to teach his victims the value of life by making them fight for it, even though he has been dead for two whole films (this guy really planned ahead). With twists behind twists, elaborate traps and more blood than any body has a right to hold the SAW franchise has had up clenching our buttcheeks and mouthing ‘ooh, right in the face’ since 2004 but will this new installment be the one to put an end to all of this gorenography? I very much doubt it.
"Ghost of the Future, I fear you more than any spectre I have seen"
It’s Christmas time once again, and along with the turkey, mistletoe and family quarrels come the feel-good Christmas Movies. This year’s roster is much smaller than previous years, when looking up the top Christmas Movies of this year I found no others that actually dealt with Christmas apart from A Christmas Carol, this time in glorious 3-D (if anyone finds one feel free to comment, I wouldn’t mind watching some more festive films).
Misfits: Bloody Mental
“George michael gets away with this shit but he used to be in wham!”
Comedy Policeman…. “I have no idea why that’s out!”
“I’m being assaulted by a chick with a dick”
“They’ve sown up his clunge!”
Here a just a few genius lines from the new E4 series Misfits. Yes I have been watching this, for well a whole part of three hours and I must say it’s rather brilliant!
James Corden... not funny?
One of the joys of the winter telly season for me, was always Never Mind The Buzzcocks (BBC2). I always enjoyed tuning in for a good little chortle at Simon Amstell winding some poor defenceless pop star up, most frequently Lee Ryan or Preston from the ordinary boys (who famously left mid way through the show). But so far this series, they have had guest hosts. Who for the most part have been ok, except James Corden who’s comic routine seems to be pretty much, hey look at me I’m slightly overweight and I’m dancing! Isn’t this funny!
