Tears All Over Town: Paranormal Activity
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/11/paranormal-activity.html
Monday, 9 November 2009. Against all the odds, Paranormal Actvity absolutely works. It's a. Horror movie. I'll let that sink in for a moment; when was the last time you saw a horror movie that did what it said on the tin? Yes, there have been some great and good horror movies in recent years, but they are few and far between: The Orphanage, REC, Let The Right One In, The Descent. I'm sure there might be a couple more, but on the whole, the discerning horror fan has slim pickings to be honest. Not the hou...

Tears All Over Town: Cornwall Holiday Pictures Part Two and Three: St Ives, Lands End, Doctor Who Exhibition, Padstow and Tintagel Castle
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/09/cornwall-holiday-pictures-part-two-st.html
Tuesday, 15 September 2009. Cornwall Holiday Pictures Part Two and Three: St Ives, Lands End, Doctor Who Exhibition, Padstow and Tintagel Castle. And to Lands End. Despite the blue skies, it's seriously windy out there! On day three we headed down to Padstow, home of chef, Rick Stein (whom I have no real knowledge of, but Amanda assured me he was a chef of note). Pretty little place, but not hugely exciting. What, no more holiday or London weekend updates? 23 September 2009 at 09:35.

Tears All Over Town: The Death of Bunny Munro
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/07/death-of-bunny-munro.html
Friday, 10 July 2009. The Death of Bunny Munro. Sounds fantastic. Nick Cave's new novel, The Death of Bunny Munro is to be released in September, and the man himself is doing a series of events comprising music and readings to promote it. The Audiobook looks very interesting too, as it features a specially composed soundtrack by Cave and Warren Ellis, using a '3D Spatial mix'. The excerpts on the website sound cool. Very twisted black humour. Definitely one not to miss. 10 July 2009 at 10:00.

Tears All Over Town: Definitely Maybe
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/07/definitely-maybe.html
Thursday, 9 July 2009. I like the occasional romantic comedy every now and then, especially when they're as good as Definitely Maybe. Coming from the Working Title stable (Love Actually, Notting Hill etc) Definitely Maybe manages to side-step all those usual A-Z cliches of Rom-Coms, while still being sweet and funny and managing to tick all the boxes any casual film-goer would expect.

Tears All Over Town: How I Met Your Mother Comes To E4
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/08/how-i-met-your-mother-comes-to-e4.html
Thursday, 27 August 2009. How I Met Your Mother Comes To E4. At first it seems like little more than a Friends clone, but by the end of season one, you will - I personally guarantee this - be utterly addicted and invested in the characters. It's frequently hilarious, always has a least one perfect quotable for the rest of the week moment, and, as it goes on becomes as perfectly poignant as Frasier used to be. And nothing can prepare you for Barney Stinson. He's Legen- wait for it - dary.

Tears All Over Town: An update and some classic Waits
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/10/update-and-some-classic-waits.html
Friday, 16 October 2009. An update and some classic Waits. So, finally back from four weeks in the non-internet wilderness following my move next door. Without the internet I've managed to finally catch up with the first season of Joss Whedon's Dollhouse, some Pushing Daisies and the third season of Dexter (which while the weakest season so far, does improve as it goes along. And season 4 is shaping up much more impressively with John Lithgow as the serial killer). 19 October 2009 at 07:25. Yeah, Bri, Sm...

Tears All Over Town: They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To...
http://simonavery.blogspot.com/2009/08/they-dont-make-em-like-they-used-to.html
Wednesday, 5 August 2009. They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To. It's true. They really don't make them like they used to. After seeing some pretty lame fare (and to be honest, I can't even recall what it was that set me off) I decided that it was high time to go back and either rediscover some old classic movies that I'd seen as a young man (and probably didn't fully appreciate), or have my mind blown by one that I'd never managed to see. Joking. They're long. Put an Audrey Hepburn film on and I'll be e...
