the first rule of cinema club is that do not talk about cinema club.

the second rule of cinema club is that you do not TALK about cinema club.

the third rule of cinema club is that if you do have to go and see the incendary, caustic and searingly brilliant fight club on a tuesday night.... try not to sit next to the smelliest man in the world. Whose socks stunk out the entire film. And spent the entire time parping like a trooper. And he was so engrossed in it, that five minutes from the end he startedplaying games on his mobile phone.

On the other hand, its been really dull the past couple of weeks. i've been unwell, off work with an infection and with antibiotics. And also, I've joined a band. We’re not very good, yet.

There will be blood? Very good. Daniel Day lewis doesn’t so much sleepwalk as merely reprise his performance from gangs of new York, evil mustache and violent outbreaks included. A fascinating interplay between the temptations of man and his continuity of survival, and the lies and deceit we weave around ourselves to survive. Very good. But Slow, ponderous, and unhurried. And lets just say. No matter how iconic that phrase may be….its good, but not that good.

I drink your milkshake! Etc.
