I remember Patriot Games being the better of the two but both pretty enjoyable stuff.
Was going to watch War of the Worlds tonight but it isn't on Netflix or Sky Cinema so I settled for The Two towers to try keep the small fellas occupied.
Yeah Patriot is definitely better, more grittier feel to it where as danger is a bit more typical of those types of movies.
Jesus I remember going to see War of the Worlds with my dad when it came out.. like he NEVER goes to the cinema and the two of us in some type of father / son bond looked at each other at the same time and walked out. When the little girl is in the back seat and keeps talking and talking. It's def something we share but the two of us got so irritated we just fucked off for a game of pool. I watched it years later.. was right to leave!

Not an obscure find, but I had buried crabcore somewhere in the depths of my brain and just remembered this existed.

He really shone in the few minutes he was in Brazil too:

Didn't realise he was in that, then again I haven't seen that movie since the days it was on rotation on the original sky movies!

In situations like that, the only thing to do is complain about it on their social media pages. It's all about PR to them, when they get bad publicity they're all over it.
I had an issue with Eir a few years ago, when I was on pay as you go. They took a coupla Euro out of my account when I topped up, as a 'maintenance fee' or something, with no warning or explanation. I queried it via chat, emailed them, tried to ring them etc., to no avail. I posted about it on their FB page and had a message within 2 minutes, and it was sorted there and then.
Literally on 3's twitter page posting about it for the last week and not a single reply from them.
I've given up on Virgin, they do respond but never actually read the details of what you've told them and auto paste in the reply of 'have you powered it off and on' or 'we've had no other reports in your area'...
UPS on their twitter and again no response back
Apparently saying covid/epidemic is reason enough to give shite customer service atm

Contact 3 via twitter - ok send us a dm with your account details and we'll look into this. That was 11 days ago and they just haven't responded to me but are active online responding to people. I've a feeling they are just directing everyone into their DM's and letting it all pile up there. Fuckin useless
Virgin - .. need I say anything else?
UPS - Mac Air 2020 due to be delivered yesterday 'by the end of the day' as per the tracking on the site. They respond to me on twitter DM to say the tracking wasn't correct and it should be there today. Tracking now says 'check back later for more information'. They have stopped replying on DM's and calling their phone line is a bunch automated cuntishness
..im going to cut a bitch before the end of the week

I saw someone mention Chris D'Elia. His stand-up shows are criminally unfunny. It's like he adopted Keanu Reeves "Ted" persona and Pauly Shore's "The Weasel". His podcast guest appearances can be good though, his off the cuff gags are funny. Either way - he's landed himself in the height of shit now...
Yeah his stand up is fucking woeful but hilarious when paired with Callen.
Saw all that this morning when I woke up, jesus that's mental. tbh all I've seen in the pictures of emails/texts are quite tame and nothing close to what he's been accused of. But he's already getting called a peado/ and accused of grooming young girls. Gona wait to see if there's anything more shown on it but he released a statement about it.
"I know I have said and done things that might have offended people during my career, but I have never knowingly pursued any underage women at any point," D'Elia said in a statement obtained by Deadline. "All of my relationships have been both legal and consensual and I have never met or exchanged any inappropriate photos with the people who have tweeted about me. That being said, I really am truly sorry. I was a dumb guy who ABSOLUTELY let myself get caught up in my lifestyle. That's MY fault. I own it. I've been reflecting on this for some time now and I promise I will continue to do better."
Regardless, his career is done now. You get accused of this these days and you are automatically guilty even if proven innocent. Sad stuff

Tommy T was really good at the start at least I though as much. But then it seems he got lazy and went for the 'cheap laughs'. As most have said, screaming and swearing all the time. One of his jokes about China not giving a shit about what anyone thinks of them.. he literally just walks around the stage for what feels like 5 mins just saying fuck off over and over again. It's not the swearing.. it's more that he just keeps going on and on with it.
The first special was great, and the following two I saw were grand but not as good. No idea what he's at these days or what his stand up is like but the two times I saw him years back he was hilarious live to be fair.

Love, Death & Robots
A series of short mostly animated stories. Not sure how many I've watched so far but they are quite good. The dialogue in the Dracula one was great

He'd get a 'twitter crucifixion' if he released this one these days but this bit had me crying when I first saw it. Funny and true how guys can be about this stuff and it actually causing issue later in life.. but how he delivers it every time cracks me up
