Random Guesswork: No Time to Die

No Time to Die comes out this year so I thought I’d put down in words a guess as to how it’ll end that, on reflection, most of the fanbase also probably believes will happen.

The Hungry Games

The Hungry Games

There’s a chap called Brant Steele who made a Hunger Games simulator1. You can play it at http://brantsteele.net/hungergames. I’ve seen a fair few runs of the simulator crop up on Tumblr (the one with Sonic the Hedgehog characters comes to mind) and I fancied a crack at it myself. I…

The Year in Blogs: 2015

2015 can seriously take a step back and literally f*ck its own face. First there was the unexpected sudden need to move house when our landlady decided they wanted to sell the house we were in regardless of whether we were in it or not. We moved into a flat…

Die Another Day Is the Darkest James Bond Film of All

Die Another Day - Dream Mask

Die Another Day was possibly one of the worst James Bond films ever made1. In attempting to tip a hat and slyly nod to previous James Bond films, it turned into a camp over-the-top monstrosity, bloated with smug performances and a plot that wouldn’t look out of place in a…

James Bond Isn’t a Timelord

Bond 50 Lineup

As a die-hard James Bond fan, one of the biggest struggles is coming to terms with one of the larger ever-present issues the franchise has: continuity. If that’s a foreign word to you, it refers to how a work of fiction progresses as a whole. For example, Doctor Who has…

The PAYNEful PodSPLOSION #03 – Chitty Chitty Bond Bond

PAYNEful Podcast 03

The third time’s the charm! This week’s theme is “Ian Fleming”, and we somehow manage to deviate heavily, driving drunkenly in a meandering fashion across an entire range of James Bond-based topics. The topics can be boiled down to the following: Murdered: Soul Suspect (video game) Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack…

The PAYNEful PodSPLOSION #01 – Liquid Snake’s Arm Across the Eighth Dimension

PAYNEful Podcast 01

Sam and I have wanted to try this whole “podcasting” thing for a while, so we bought a half-decent microphone and, just to completely break convention, we played Minecraft while we talked (nobody plays Minecraft on YouTube, right?). We “um” and “er” our way through such exciting topics as: Give…

Derren Brown is a Malevolent Supervillain

Derren Brown, straight out of a gangster film.

I’m a big admirer of Derren Brown. He’s managed to convince 99% of people that he’s simply a stage conjurer who uses a combination of psychology, hypnotism and good old-fashioned misdirection in order to give people a good time. This is in fact a lie, and I know this because…

Three Blokes and a Chick Watch: Casino Royale

Casino Royale

You have to understand that there’s a reason I like Casino Royale so much. Put yourself in my position – you’ve just watched the Bond franchise fire a nail gun into its own ball-sack over and over for two hours in the absolutely dire Die Another Day, a film that…
