I'd settle for the Smokies simply matching it TBQHWY

Best was probably the South Park Bigger Longer Uncut swear-along at the Prince Charles cinema a few years ago - being in a roomful of people singing along with the Uncle Fucker song was utterly purile yet joyful. Hard to pick a standout worst experience, but have had several films ruined by the usual excessive cuntery (mobile phones, ill disciplined kids, pissheads, back row bonking, etc)

Last week or so, mixed bag: Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire - pfffffffrrrrrt. Almost passable and not as disengaging as I'd feared, but not much cop at all. Also just seems to feature Bill Murray popping his head in at random intervals to pick up the appearance money before fecking off again like a disinterested junior footballer at Blantyre Vics or somesuch. Civil War - really, really bought into this until the last 5 minutes, when . That aside, the film builds really nicely and gets the tension spot on for most of it, that Jessie Plemons cameo is a brilliant set piece. The Rock - part of the Cineworld action fest, hadn't seen it for a long time. Michael Bay films tend to be a bit too coked-up for my liking, but this one is a bit more restrained, and has one of the best villians-who-isn't-a-villian in a film played to a tee by Ed Harris, so it's absolutely fine. Sometimes I Think About Dying - Daisy Ridley as a very closed-book introvert type, adapted from a stage play IIRC. Wanted to like this more than I did because she plays her part as well as can be expected, but the film is unbelieveably sloooooooooow and pretentious and you'll likely dial out of it even though it barely touches an hour and a half.

Fair play to Edinburgh - the league table doesn't lie, but I don't think they've been as bad as their points tally suggests and a tough season giving the kids experience might set them up okay for L2 if they stay afloat. Poor result for us, and makes the path to 4th place a lot more awkward. We badly need Alloa to win the Saturday Telefios game IMO regardless of what happens to us at LP.

6-1, and only a few good saves from the keeper and some wasteful finishing stopped that being double figures. Hard to judge against a poor team, but Buckie ping the ball about nicely and wouldn't be a mismatch against the chickenf***er and his band of mercenaries. I'd make Buckie slight favourites now unless Brechin go utterly berserk tomorrow night.

Nipped up to this - only 3-1 Buckie HT, not sure how as they are the better side by a mile. Could be ugly second half if Strathspey tire out.

Congrats, and (probably) see yer next season.

Absolute belter of a gig this evening - was a bit apprehensive about being in the upper seats but if anything the acoustics up there are better, and not many of us were sitting down. Two great set lists and a rave on the balcony, perfect Thursday night oot.

Went along to this and Dumb and Dumber for the world of Cine double feature. Hadn't seen either for quite a few years - both are still quite funny and hold up okay. That said, Naked Gun does show its age more of the two, and D&D probably had the more gutteral audience laughter at that screening. Noticed they are doing an action season for the rest of the month, too. Commando already booked!

This is largely why predicting what will happen in the next five games is a bit futile. But given the fixtures, I'd take a final day win-or-bust for 4th right now.

Didnt expect much beforehand, but we've effectively deducted ourselves a point with this porridge of a showing tonight.

Only 3 words to sum this game up

Immaculate - Sydney Sweeney as a nun, which will probably lure in some of the posters on 'that' thread over in general nonsense right now. It's a fairly generic dark-quiet-dark-quiet-THUMP horror for about an hour, but her performance is really good, and the final 20 minutes are deliciously nasty. Late Night With The Devil - now THIS is my kind of unsettling slow burner horror film. David Dalmaschithingimabob playing as a slick 70's American TV show on 31st October (tick) as a piece of found footage (tick) with a young female guest who does exorcismy things (tick). Sounds counter intuitive, but if you ignore it as a horror film and watch it with a straight bat a'la Alan Partridge Does Halloween, then it's great fun, and the visuals/set/etc are really good. Suitably bonkers final act, too. Won't be everyone's cuppa, but I loved it.

Very slack today, and fairly relieved to nick a point from that. Hope Balfour makes a good recovery, sickener for the kid. Can just sense there will be a lot of plot twists and edgy afternoons before QOS at home.
