John Carpenter could well be described as a true renaissance man. He’s directed 29 movies, including the ones he has in production now. He’s written 27. He’s acted in 13. And, rather sadly, he’s written the score for 18 films.

Last night I had the somewhat dubious fortune of watching Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto.
Before I get to that, let’s just have a little look at Melvin:

This is Russell Howard. He is, apparently, a comedian. His entire act hinges on the fact that he was alive in the 1980s. This basically amounts to him referencing the Thundercats and various other iconic cartoons and suchlike. He is NOT funny. He has TERRIBLE teeth.

Hello, the internet.
I’ve now got a fully functioning corner of the internet to move the contents of my bowels through.
You’ll probably find yourself getting upset by all of this at some point. That’s what the off button on your computer is for. Over the coming days, I’ll be transferring my old blog posts on blogger […]
