    [Film] What is the worst film you have ever seen all the way through?

    I thought Barbie was great. Much more entertaining than Oppenheim.

    [Film] What is the worst film you have ever seen all the way through?

    I don't mind directors being a bit free and easy with historical detail in popular films but at some points Gladiator 2 insulted our intelligence. There is an ariel view of Rome which includes the Wedding Cake which was built in the 19th Century, also someone reads a printed newspaper. Apart...

    [Film] What is the worst film you have ever seen all the way through?

    The Sgt Pepper film starring the Bee Gees is the worst. We had planned to see Animal House but were a day early. Another vote for Avatar which I fell asleep watching as I also did in the 2nd Pirates of the Caribbean film. I absolutely detested Forrest Gump. Cats was terrible but had a...

    [Film] What is the worst film you have ever seen all the way through?

    To be fair there were scenes on the beach as well.

    [News] diversity equality and inclusion

    The whole point of DEI in recruitment is to ensure that you are able to recruit from as wide a pool of candidates as possible and are not discouraging anybody with the skills you need. Apart from the selection process this means where you advertise, the requirements etc. I worked in a large...

    [Albion] How many managers have you see us play under?

    I can remember that we often had The Big Match rather than Southern Soccer which usually meant a big London team and highlights from games in other parts of the country. It was always a let down if it turned out be Southern Soccer with Pompey. I remember Hiron; he was terrible and Milkins in...

    [Albion] Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I live on the Weaver Line and this Sunday morning closure due to overnight work is quite common. The first trains from Seven Sisters towards WHL look good to start at 10.17.

    [Film] Film or TV lines you use in your everyday lives

    It would have been quite a while ago but I remember using another line from this album from time to time. " but she's a sweet girl and I wouldn 't knock her..." I think the original was about Jayne Mansfield and her difficulties with local Malibu wildlife.

    [Politics] Donald Trump, US President

    I think Vance is deeply unpleasant but I think ideologically he will be more consistent so we'll know what evil we are dealing with. Also he won't be able to dominate the media in the way that Trump has so a good proportion of MAGA idiots will lose interest with the reality show being over...

    [Politics] Donald Trump, US President

    He pops the blue pills before each press conference and can't figure out why his hands don't grow.

    [Politics] Donald Trump, US President

    At the press conference with Ramaphosa Trump repeated, for no obvious reason, a claim that he had done 2 trillion dollars worth of deals with the Qatari government. Qatars estimated total gdp is 216 billion. Deals valuing 9 years worth of their annual gdp? No-one in the room questioned this.

    [Football] El CRAPico/the Battle of SHITain etc

    Took me back to the Darlington and Doncaster home games in our first season at Priestfield. Monday night's game looked like a totally different sport.

    [Albion] Do we want Man Utd or Spurs to win?

    Where I live I am surrounded by Spurs fans and another high profile failure would provide huge entertainment value. As for the impact on us, I think you could make a case for and against a Spurs win. I think we definitely want extra time, pens and some minor injuries.

    [Albion] Did we really...

    I have very rarely booed anyone but when I did it was for specific things not for achievements even if they weren't ours.

    [Politics] Brexit

    The wonderful thing is that those cxxts can do absolutely nothing about it. The more they rant and foam at the mouth the better.

    [Technology] Driverless cars

    My daughter has just come back from San Franciso and used Waymos all the time; said they were great. As you say they work fine on the grid like layout and stricter lane discipline of a US city but might struggle navigating Hanger Lane. There is of course the other big question of driver jobs...

    [Football] Well done Palace

    At the quarter final stage teams like us and Palace had maybe the best chance we've had in decades of winning the cup; all the teams left were beatable. I don't like it, and they rode their VAR luck, but Palace took that chance. Maybe we should focus our attention on why we didn't.

    [Music] Artist with far better songs/films/art than their huge hits?

    Bjork's biggest hit is 'Oh So Quiet' which provided no indication at all that she would be capable of making great records like 'Pagan Poetry' and 'Venus as a Boy'.

    [Albion] I fvcking hate Pal@rse

    They've just raised the bar and it's up to us to respond. That's what rivalry is all about. I was screaming at the TV when City had the pen saved but I will direct my real feelings of hatred to the many figures in the world right now who really deserve it.
