  The First Slam Dunk 2022

  Ganbare! (all the useless weaklings on the bench who will never be asked to do anything ever)

  Minbo, or the Gentle Art of Japanese Extortion 1992

  Watched 21 Mar 2025

  There's a macabre list of great films that likely played a significant part in their director's death (Stalker/Tarkovsky, Salo/Pasolini). Itami was brave to make this, and it's a whole bunch of fun, but watching it now is tinged with regret.

  Imagine being redacted into another plane of existence in your utility room (imagine having a utility room!).

  ★★★★ Watched 07 Nov 2017

  The best musical/pub crawl/second hand bookshop centred/cold epidemic/odyssey hybrid I've ever seen.
