    Review Escape from New York (1981)

    And that's saying something! New remake: Authority figure: President gone missing in hostile New York, probably doomed! Ms Plissken (Snake's granddaughter, now in charge of family rescue business): about fekking time. OK not so much a remake ads a tee-shirt slogan, but i like it.

    Poll Your Favourite Comedy Movies

    Love your list - pretty much an interesting combination of "totally agree" and "never heard of" - so that means I share a lot of your taste and the ones that are new to me should probably work for me too. Love that you have LA Story in there, so puzzled that you'd put Princess Bride as a...

    Review Modern Who Companions

    The Last Roman, a near-perfect Dad, a badass Cyberman-bullier and a nurse: nothing fazes Rory - seeing glimpses of his dad explains as lot.

    Review The Witch (2015)

    Hah! Another one that's sneaked under my radar - I mistakenly thought you were going to be talking about The Love Witch here, which I still have every intention of tracking down although it's playing slightly hard to get - but this one also looks very interesting.

    Review Modern Who Companions

    Totally fun when not being totally heartbreaking - and Mrs Pond the only companion ever to have sex in the Tardis? Respect!

    What's unpleasant about being drunk? Ask a gin and tonic.

    Review Why do religious people take offense to church humour?

    Who therefore haven't actually seen it, or really have no sense of humour.

    Review Modern Who Companions

    Well spotted, Doc, thanks. Heading for bed now with a head full of Deadpool. River deserved a fresher brain than the one I've got right now - let the stroppiness begin and I'll catch up tomorrow. Night, night. Glad you've given her a thread of her own.

    Review The Works of Shakespeare

    No use-by date on original packaging (like the Pharaonic honey found in the pyramids, but a lot newer AND handily already in English - good to go - enjoy!)

    Review Modern Who Companions

    Slightly puzzled by your unnecessary use of the pat tense in the poll, but nothing she can't deal with, sweetie.

    Just got my DVD - it was waiting on my door mat when I got home from work - cracked open a bottle, plunged straight in - I am now so happy to have lost my Deadpool virginity. couldn't wait to tell you all.

    Fun FILM GENERAL: Anything To Do With Films

    Interesting, thanks - I've never seen the comics but now (I mean NOW about ten minutes since I finished watching the video, which was on my doormat when I came home from work) I think I'm in love with Deadpool, so if the comics are even better,, you've given me a quest and a challenge - Accepted!

    Review Cartoons

    Hadn't seen any of the early ones before falling in love with Mssrs Armstrong and Eldon - found some classic ones on You Tube afterwards. As far as I can now tell, all Danger Mouse is good Danger Mouse. This is a complete unknown to me - an \English Scooby Doo?

    Key word here, I think. Bonkers comedy premise. Lighten up?

    Review Torchwood (2006)

    Does a Time Lord know how to use a sonic screwdriver? Do Doctor Who tiny-fans need something to grow up for? Does Cardiff have a rift? ( I have a cousin - won Welsh book of the year and I heard about the after-awards party so, hell yes!) More betterTORCHWOOD please, any time yu like, but sooner...
