I am an extrovert gay man living in Sydney who loves Indian food, current affairs, music, film and reading, caramel anything, and a beautiful guy called Steve who makes every day a delight. I am trying to get two novels in a trilogy ready for e-publication, love my iPhone & iPod, and am secretly Canadian in my soul. Life is fun, exciting and joyful and I aim to make the absolute most of it!
On the 2nd day of Christmas … I watched “Its Beginning to Stink a Lot Like Christmas” (The New Adventures of Old Christine)
Poor Christine “Old Christine” Campbell. Try as she might, and frankly she really doesn’t try all that hard – particularly not if there’s wine or sex with the Christmas tree guy to be had instead – she can’t actually manage to actually lead the sort of life she thinks Continue Reading
Movie review: Paddington
It’s a distinctly odd feeling when you’re about to see someone you once loved dearly for the first time in quite a number of years. You’re excited, of course, since this person once meant, and usually still means, even if in vividly-etched, rose-coloured memories, the world to you, and Continue Reading
On the 1st day of Christmas 2014 … I aurally orbited Pomplamoose’s Christmas in Space EP
Regardless of the time of year, Pomplamoose (real life couple Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn) are a lot of fun. Their music, which is released to fans via an innovative patronage system called Patreon, merrily skips from genre to genre, drawing in jazz, ’80s synth pop, big band sounds to Continue Reading
I give them 5 stars: Farewell to Australian movie critic legends David and Margaret
Saying goodbye to someone you love is never easy. Or in the case of Margaret Pomeranz and David Stratton, a legendary movie reviewing duo who presented their last show on Australia’s public national broadcaster ABC last night, well nigh impossible. These two impressively articulate, cinema-literate movie lovers were an Continue Reading
Parks and Recreation season 7 has a start date … and sadly a finish one too
Some wise person once remarked, no doubt in an advanced state of rationalisation wherein they tried to convince themselves that something truly awful coming to pass was in fact a blessing in disguise, that all good things must come to end. I am not quite sure why that necessarily Continue Reading
First impressions: The Flash
Well viewers, looks like the streets have just got that little bit safer. If you live in a fictitious city that is, not far from another fictitious city of course, one with lax planning regulations that allows particle accelerators to set up on picturesque riverbanks, smack bang in the Continue Reading
Sings some songs of Yuletide parody: Jimmy Fallon and Rashida Jones pay musical tribute to the holidays
Turducken for one, anyone? For sure, but only if you’ll “Drink with me/ ’cause I hate my family” … It seems like a fair swap, especially in the midst of the crazy frenetic, brain-melting busyness of the festive season when all the stresses of life seem to be distilled Continue Reading
Who will fight the Robot Overlords? (trailer + poster)
SNAPSHOT “It has been three years since the robot invasion of earth. Sean Flynn has never given up hope that his missing father might still be alive. All humans have been fitted with transmitters to ensure they obey the cardinal rule of the robot empire — that they stay Continue Reading
Festive FUNX3: Jingle Bell Rocks! documentary, Kristen Bell’s “Text Me Merry Christmas” and Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever
I am a Christmas music junkie. Hell I am a Christmas junkie full stop. But one of the things I love most about the season, and which I appreciate many other people hate (especially those in retail who are listening to festive tunes from October onwards), are the Christmas Continue Reading
