Finished Castlevania on the recommendations on here, very good.

Just started Ghost of Tsushima on PS4, looking forward to hacking people up Kurosawa-style for the next few weeks.

Started reading Snow Crash its in the ready player one vein apparently - pretty good!

2 very different recommendations today.

Finished Watchmen, the series. Didn't know what to make of it at first as very different to the film. Loved it in the end.

Hope they make a 2nd season.

Also discovered I'd be missing out on some Partridge so started watching 'This Time'.

Brilliantly awkward as per! Halfway through series 1.

Got around to starting 'Better call Saul' a few days ago.

Will admit (as with LOTR) I didnt like Breaking Bad, 1st season was excellent and then went downhill, lost interest by the end of the 3rd.

So I was dubious about Better call Saul, but been really proven wrong, its brilliant, writing is really good, they are not rushing anything and giving hints at a deep plot.

It is great but I'm still lost at you not liking Breaking Bad haha

Haha you can add it to not understanding why I dont like LOTR, I'm feckin weird

You can also add "supports Man Utd" to the list as well

I can highly recommend the book series “The Dresden Files” by Jim Butcher. It’s currently on book 18 (he’s writing 22 and then capping it with an apocalyptic trilogy to finish).

He’s a Wizard who is a Private Detective. It develops into something else and the world building is fantastic. Great supporting characters and just really well written.

Vampires, demons, fairy’s wizards and witches set in modern day Chicago.

Don’t bother with the tv series though it was a disaster.

Actually quite excited that I've decided my boy is old enough to be introduced to 'The Lost Boys'. Prob one of my favourite films of all time!

I love that film. I educated Squash (Joshua) with Total Recall on Saturday. Next up The Running Man

In other news. Army of the Dead. What a crap ending.

Love The Running Man

It’s my bag. Love a Dystopian Future. Plus it’s Arnie. Can’t go wrong.

I just know I'm going to be bitterly disappointed by my son's reaction. He doesn't get excited about anything other than Fortnite (although he did love Locke and Key and Stranger Things).

He'll give it a mark out of 10 (prob a 7 or an and look as enthused as if I just told him it was cabbage surprise for dinner.

If he does then make sure it’s a bowl of boiled cabbage for dinner. My mum used to make boiled bacon and cabbage once a week. I still have nitemares

Anyone remember the guy who tried to pay for something with a picture of a spider. Cracks me up. Had his books on my Amazon wishlist for ages.

Massive windup merchant. Aussie called David Thorne.

Audible have a £3 sale on with a few football related books in there. Has anyone read any of the Secret Footballer books, if so are they any good?

Ryan

@john-folan I can’t wait to see it!

Just been to see Mortal Kombat with the teenager. Love my Cineworld Unlimited card. Great film, no plot whatsoever and loads of gratuitous violence. Proper 1980’s KungFu. Loved it.
