    I haven't looked at Fifty Year Sword; I did see that The Familiar is intended to be like 27 volumes and I'm just not interested into committing to a trek like that, honestly, especially since I'm a relatively slow reader. And I saw some various quotes of Only Revolutions being difficult to obtain and nearly unreadable for its bulk. I'm okay with some work, but if it seems like a daunting task just to read it, I'm going to be extra hesitant to pick it up. I have Only Revolutions but had to call it a day a quarter of the way in as I had no idea what was happening, haven't got the patience really, if you find it cheap maybe give it a crack but I wouldn't spend big on it.

    Yeah that's the one, Damon doesn't seem nerdy enough for the humour aspect of the book so hopefully they have changed it a fair bit. I just checked out the author and he does look like the kind of bloke who would write the story this way, goofy jokes and wise cracks. Maybe it'll improve, or maybe it's just not to my tastes.

    I finished Fifty Year Sword by him last week, it's pretty cool and can be read in under an hour. On The Martian at the moment and finding it really dull, it's a month into him being stranded on Mars and he doesn't write about his loneliness, family, his loves, wanking, nothing, it's just a bloke moving things around and saying cheesy dad jokes.
  4. Timecrimes - Pretty cool time-travel thriller thing, I was hoping it would be scary and the main bloke is dumb but it was fun. A good alternative to the new Avengers, which I only got 20 minutes into before remembering how boring superhero films can be.
  5. Aaaaaaah! - Weird and hilarious, definite cult classic in the making.
  6. What do you do Rubin? Sounds like it may not be for you if you see horrible things during the day.
  7. I think the best thing about this film is how utterly inept the main bloke is, he is totally useless and it's hilarious.
  8. you look like a fuckin legend congratulations,your bird is well fit I echo this sentiment, nice one mate.
  9. Empire Strikes Back - Despecialized Edition: I love that some people actually done this, god bless them.
  10. The other day I saw a black chick knocking the shit out of another in an off-licence, that was vaguely depressing, but then there were, like, five people trying to sort it out. So for every two fuckers there are five cool people, and it's alright. Don't worry about it.
  11. Blood On Satan's Claw, The Witchfinder General and A Field in England are essential films, got into this myself not too long ago so fingers crossed this thread will reveal some cool stuff. I found this Guardian article is a good source for recommendations too. http://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/apr/10/eeriness-english-countryside-robert-macfarlane If I remember correctly kaini knows this shit, hopefully he'll stumble upon the thread.
  12. Have you seen The Grey? I was surprised by how good it was, I mean it's not great, but it's good and keeping with your theme.
  13. Hearing Lindelof is involved will stop me from ever watching this, what a complete arsehat.

    I've really tried with Dark Tower, read the first in the series, I didn't like it but was persuaded by my brother to give it another try as we are both such fans of King so read it again, still not my cup of tea. Third time lucky?
  15. I'm a horror nerd and couldn't get past the first episode, someone here was raving about it awhile ago, maybe kaen, but I didn't get it.
  16. They added Samurai Jack on Netflix and I remember that I use to enjoy it but somehow I forgot how good it really was, bloody fantastic, Aku is stupidly funny.

    DANK MEMES

    Just saying brother, a mod pointing this out is retarded.
  18. Woke up at 4am and realised I was thinking of Splinter, not Splice, please unread this post.
