like cigarette burns or midnight movies or one of those. how easy is it to do? can you expect to break even or is it a total loss making venture? are hire costs set in stone or do venues negotiate? anyone here ever been part of a film club?

http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2011/aug/19/honey-money-catherine-hakim-review so there's this new book out about this. ive read a few columns about it. the argument (apart from reminding us, just in case the non-superficial society we live in made us forget, that good looks and charm can do...

i found some new music that excited me http://www.planet.mu/discography/ZIQ309 ignored all the kuedo stuff til now for some reason as i thought it was pale and insipid post dubstep/nu trip hop stuff (not sure why) but instead it is actually like hip hop beats i love and old 70s synth...

i LOVE these films first one is ultra classic and jane harrison aka nova was really hot second one i think might actually be better than the first one only seen conquest after that which i did like but seemed to carry less of the interesting philosophical arguments/questions and was a lot more...

accents which rub you the wrong way basically. i went to see an exhibition the other week, got the date wrong, so it wasnt even ON yet, but the woman at the desk was one of these aggressively posh early 20s girls with one of those ultra cut-glass accents that i happen to like in drama (and some...

saw tarkovskys solaris last night. was looking forward to it for a while as i liked the soderbergh remake with clooney though thought it was a little too taut/efficient so assumed the original would give it more space to breathe. and it did. to a ridiculous extent. tbh it might have been cos i...

my parents - partly cos i think all their friends have got new tvs - decided they just HAD to get a new wide screen tv too, despite their old one working just fine, and tbh, i think its a needless waste of money. i know the old one will be obsolete when the digital switchover is complete, but im...

found this a very good read. http://www.littlewhiteearbuds.com/feature/everything-popular-is-wrong-making-it-in-electronic-music-despite-democratization/ i would paste the text but its too long to be allowed apparently.

is it worth it? i found one place in brighton that does mail order repair (mine needs a new HD) for about £70 inclusive but on ebay you can pick up the same models, modified for about £10 less (though i would still then be stuck with a useless ld machine lying around) anyone know a...

http://thequietus.com/articles/05832-a-shot-in-the-dark-16mm-s-last-reel predictable enough, what with everything going digital. bit sad though. does depend on what it is obv, but i dont like the harsh precision of digital that much, no texture there, but then thats what people want isnt it...

has this thread been done before? im sure it has. but i cant find it. how can i look like i have money to spend without actually having it? (ie what places can i take a girl to without me/the place looking cheap, despite being a pauper) london can be bloody expensive. i might have to style...

i just started watching 'him and her' on bbc iplayer. one of the best dramedies/comedrama (what do you call these things?) ive seen in a while. funny programme about a 20 something unemployed couple. combines the sort of realism/ordinariness of what i imagine gavin and stacey to be (never...

man, i have a crush. a baaaad crush. trying to figure out if im crushing on the notion of crushing or the object of my crushdom itself (it may be both). how do you get rid of a crush?
