One-Shot (30/12/09)

In my second year of university, I wrote a terrible script for class concerning a young woman afflicted by Body Identity Integrity Disorder. Before clicking play on this trailer, I said to myself "there's no way my garbage script will be better than this." I was wrong. Armless boasts an awful title and even worse promo. It's appalling on every level, but the music just kills it. I half expected some cheesy voice over guy to come in...

"John seems like an ordinary guy... except for ONE THING!!! ...."

Avatar rocks.

Monday 28 December 2009

One-Shot (28/12/09)

Having a serious think about all of this. Status Quo can't be sustained.

Sunday 27 December 2009

One-Shot (27/12/09)

In the highly unlikely event that anyone actually tried to use that link in the previous One-Shot to listen to our Christmas special, it had to be taken off due to - as we in the business say - "technical difficulties." This is neither my nor Chris's fault. However, I'm still going to say sorry. That's how sorry I am that we can't share it with the world the way we wanted.

One-Shot (25/12/09)

Merry Christmas/happy holidays! It's officially over a year since we started this train. Here's to hoping the New Year will inject some much needed Christophe.

Thursday 24 December 2009

One-Shot (24/12/09)

Part 2 to yesterday's. Kinda. Don't let Leonidas fans tell you any different: Russel Crowe's Maximus was cinema's hard man in the 00's.

Wednesday 23 December 2009

One-Shot (23/12/09)

I haven't seen Gladiator in about a decade. Rectification must happen. Furthermore, this should never have been allowed to happen in the first place.

Sunday 20 December 2009

One-Shot (20/12/09)

It's five days 'til Christmas. What the beg?

Saturday 19 December 2009

One-Shot (19/12/09)

Favourite cinematic curmudgeon? Paul Giamatti's Harvey Pekar, probably.

Thursday 17 December 2009

One-Shot (17/12/09)

Never forget: Internet message boards have their reputation for a reason. Exercise caution.

Wednesday 16 December 2009

One-Shot (16/12/09)

It's very tough to add "or whatever" to a sentence and not sound ignorant.

Tuesday 15 December 2009

One-Shot (15/12/09)

Are there any words more irritating than "Internet Explorer/Firefox/whatever cannot display the webpage?"

Monday 14 December 2009

One-Shot (14/12/09)

"The Trees" by Rush is the nerdiest song ever. This is not an insult. If you needed telling that, why are you here?

Sunday 13 December 2009

One-Shot (13/12/09)

Does a bad accent make a bad performance? Absolutely not.

Saturday 12 December 2009

One-Shot (12/12/09)

Lest you forget to chase salted peanuts with cold beer.

Friday 11 December 2009

One-Shot (11/12/09)

In answer to the poll question, Michael Owen. Every time. And I say that not just as a United supporter, but as a sensible human being.

Wednesday 9 December 2009

One-Shot (09/12/09)

Yes! Even though I probably shouldn't, I expect something grand for the hundredth episode.

Tuesday 8 December 2009

One-Shot (08/12/09)

Mixing up your vocabulary is usually a good thing. However, some phrases have one use and one use only. Affirmative action is one such phrase. Use with caution.

Monday 7 December 2009

One-Shot (07/12/09)

New word of the day: resode.

Sunday 6 December 2009

One-Shot (06/12/09)

Foo Fighters, the eponymous rock band's debut album, may have replaced The Colour and the Shape as their best album in my estimation.

Saturday 5 December 2009

One-Shot (05/12/09)

Deep RiverRock Still Pear is the nuts.

Friday 4 December 2009

One-Shot (04/12/09)

Question no-one will answer: has the poll reset itself, possibly due to lack of use, or is it just my ongoing computer woes? By the way, if any One-Shots should not happen in future, you'll have those to thank.

Thursday 3 December 2009

One-Shot (03/12/09)

If in doubt: a ham and cheese toastie on white bread with brown sauce. Coffee and shortbread optional.

Wednesday 2 December 2009

One-Shot (02/12/09)

If I were a superhero, I think hypocrisy would be my Kryptonite. That way, I could be more sophisticated than just having a rogue's gallery of villains - I'd also be my own worst enemy.

Tuesday 1 December 2009

One-Shot (01/12/09)

I want to see justice served as much as the next guy, but the F.A.I. could do with letting this whole World Cup thing go now.
