Schindler’s List of 'Good' Movies


I’ll read this back in like 20 minutes and completely disagree with my own choices.

If anyone is currently scrolling through Netflix looking for something to watch, here’s a list of my top 10 favourite films to inspire you.

A pre-warning, some of these films aren’t the best but they make me happy and it’s my list so:

10. Dumb and Dumber- I genuinely watched this film on a daily basis between the ages of 7-11, its terrible but it makes me feel nostalgic.

9. Kingsman: The Secret Service- again nothing special but it’s my go-to film for when I’m hungover along with…

8. Easy A- again, great for when hungover (I also have this on my iPad and therefore watch it every time I’m on a journey lasting longer than 2 hours).

7. The Rocky Horror Picture Show- don’t dream it, watch it

6. Whiplash- a good film, watch it, play the drums to it.

5. Star Wars: Episode V- the Empire Strikes Back- don’t want to spoil anything but _____ is _____’s father, you’ll never see it coming.

4. Terminator 2: Judgement Day- if you’re ever about to watch Terminator Genisys, don’t, just watch this again.

3. Pulp Fiction- John Travolta and Uma Thurman are the only people who could beat me at a dancing competition .  

2. Hocus Pocus- if I actually spent time properly thinking about this list, it probably wouldn’t be this high up, but ‘tis the season.

1. Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2- they're basically the same film so they're both my number 1. (I think I prefer the first one a tiny small bit). 


Films that didn’t quite make my top 10 include: Scream, Death Becomes Her, Weird Science, Beetlejuice, Scary Movie 3, The Goonies, all of the Final Destination movies (except 4) and The Simpsons Movie.

A Hungover Rant about X-Men Movies

Without a single doubt, the GIMPIEST thing I've ever produced: I'm running out of blog ideas, haven't been to the cinema in a while and Fox's treatment of the X-Men has always annoyed me so I guess here we go. Again, nobody will read this- but for as long as I can remember the X-Men have always been my favourite superhero team. Mutants are 2929829 times cooler than any Avenger and when I was a young catholic schoolboy I used to pray for superpowers, probably why God hates me and doesn't answer any of my adult prayers.  But yeah, I'm probably gonna be rather opinionated on the subject because I'm cLuEd uP, eDuCaTeD aNd, as mentioned, extremely hungover.  Characters I understand not everything in a superhero film can be comic book accurate, and it doesn't always need to be, however, there are so many things the X-Men comics do right , that the studio ignores when making the movies. Here are some character nitpicks, you bored yet?

I see you shiver with antici........PATION

Rocky Horror image and title NOT related to blog content  yo, me again Thought i'd list the films coming out this year that i'm super excited about, nobody cares but whatever. Just means i have a list to refer back to. About 65% of this list is superhero films. so in no particular order: we'll start with Captain Marvel (in cinemas 8 March 2019) mostly just want to see because i've seen every other Marvel movie and it would almost be rude not to, but the real excitement is for... Avengers Endgame (in cinemas 25 April 2019) Infinity War was amazing, can't wait to see everyone get brought back to life bc nobody ever dies in a Marvel movie.  This also comes out a day later in Spain (which is where i'll be at the time), and I have a friend who is cruelly threatening to spoil it for me  because they'll see it first, so if you are reading this blog, 'friend', am not even kidding al never speak to you ever again.

Hi, How Do I Stop Hyperventilating Over Avengers: Endgame?

We all know I don't like my blog but I can't deny I'm so excited to write about this one . Seen it last night, if I think about certain parts for longer than 20 seconds I start crying again so I guess you could say it's made an impact. There's so much I want to say, unusual from me I know. So I'm just gonna list things and it will be a massive ramble but I have so many thoughts and things to say and words to type and holy fuck. SPOILER ALERT, LEGIT SO SO SO MANY I'll start with the marketing of the movie, it was GENIUS, gave hardly any of the plot away, showed nothing from the final battle which made room for SO many surprises. Marvel clearly realised everyone was gonna see it no matter what they showed in the trailers, so thank the lord they kept everything mostly a secret. Also amazing how within the first 20 minutes they completely subverted expectations, surely I can't be the only one who assumed they'd time travel with the s
