Is this the best movie that will never get made?
April 9, 2009
We were cruising around the internet the other day looking for things to occupy our tiny little minds and we stumbled across The Robotard 8000 (think we found it through Cinematical). The Robotard 8000 has produced a script so offensively hilarious that chances are you will never see it made into a movie. We started to read it and couldn’t stop until we finished even though at some points I thought I was going to shit out a lung I was laughing so much. [Read more]
The Boat That Rocked
April 8, 2009
In 1966 - British pop music’s finest era - the BBC played just 2 hours of rock and roll every week. But pirate radio played rock and pop from the high seas 24 hours a day. And 25 million people - over half the population of Britain - listened to the pirates every single day.
Recently expelled from school, Carl (Tom Sturridge) has been sent by his mother to find some direction in life by visiting his godfather Quentin. However, Quentin is the boss of Radio Rock, a pirate radio station in the middle of the North Sea, populated by an eclectic crew of rock ‘n’ roll DJs.
They are led by The Count (Philip Seymour Hoffman) - big, brash, American, god of the airwaves, and totally in love with the music. He’s faithfully backed up by his co-broadcasters Dave (Nick Frost) - ironic, intelligent and cruelly funny; Simon (Chris O’Dowd) - super-nice and searching for true love; Midnight Mark (Tom Wisdom) - enigmatic, handsome and man of few words; Wee Small Hours Bob - the late night DJ, whose hobbies are folk music and drugs; Thick Kevin (Tom Brooke) - possessor of the smallest intelligence known to mankind; On-The-Hour John (Will Adamsdale) - the newsreader; and Angus ‘The Nut’ Nutsford (Rhys Darby) - possibly the most annoying man in Britain.

The Dude-drink-a-thon
March 28, 2009
The other day me and Alex were thinking up new ideas for features for the site whilst we enjoyed a few beers. Alex likes a drink or two and came up with an idea where we could combine his favourite things, movies and booze (he did want to include boobies too but I wasn’t prepared to let him oggle mine). During this ‘brainstorming’ session the drink-a-thon was born. [Read more]
