I am thrilled and excited in a way that used to happen way back when I was a kid and ABBA were getting ready to release a new album. While I love the depth and breadth of music I listen to right now, one thing I miss is the thrill Continue Reading
Rise of the Planet of the Apes @ Event Cinemas, Sydney (Sunday 14 August)
Rise of Planet of the Apes is a brilliant, if confronting, movie. While it descends into shoot-em-up action in the final act, and the number of apes mysteriously multiplies, it by and large movie addresses some very real current social and ethical concerns – should we be manipulating genetics Continue Reading
New season US TV Shows – Part 1

Discovering the hilarity of delightful UK sitcom Miranda
This is one very funny sitcom. Not cutting edge granted but when did all comedy have to be avant garde to be entertaining and wildly funny?

THE MUPPETS!
Here’s the poster for the new Muppets movie. I have loved the Muppets for years. From the age of 5, when Sesame Street’s Big Bird (so sad they couldn’t see his friend Snuffalapagus at first), Bert & Ernie, Grover (my absolute favourite Muppet still, with the possible exception of Animal Continue Reading
Community is back filming again!
So excited that Community has started filming season 3 – due to hit US screens in September – and to kick things off in style, some wag at the offices (this photo comes courtesy of Joel McHale’s Twitter feed) acknowledged their unforgiveable Emmys snub in the best way possible: In Continue Reading
