I be Simpsonized

I don’t know how I only just discovered this, when it’s a tie-in from the 2007 Simpsons Movie, but this only just crossed my radar. There’s a site where you can upload a photo of yourself, and it will make you a character on The Simpsons. So I uploaded the photo of me you see … more…

my week at the movies: nuthin’

OOPS: Looks like I spoke too soon. I just heard about a screening of Observe and Report tonight that I’ll attend. I shall observe and report. And another of 17 Again this week, also now on my radar… It’s one of those rare weeks when I’ve either already seen everything on offer or there’s a … more…

trailer break: ‘The Age of Stupid’
