I chatted to some of the camera ops who worked on the Tottenham game and they said getting shots of despondent Spurs fans was like shooting fish in a barrel.

Photograph of a UK cinema ticket for The Krays (18). The ticket is from ODEON, branded “Rank Theatres Limited,” with the red ODEON logo at the top. Location printed as Ipswich. The film title “THE KRAYS (18)” appears on the right. Date shown as 27.4.90, day Friday, time 6.00, price £3.00. Serial number 39954008 printed in the top right. The ticket has perforated holes down the left edge and a torn lower edge. The image is presented on a dark textured background with the date “27.4.90” faintly overlaid beneath the ticket.
Film poster for The Krays. Against a black background, two men in dark suits, white shirts and black ties are shown from the shoulders up. They stand close together, facing forward with serious expressions. The title “THE KRAYS” appears in bold white lettering above them, underlined with a red brushstroke. The image is framed within a dark textured background.
Another film that I remember receiving a lot of buzz at the time. Probably because it had New Romantics playing the infamous twins. Bille Whitelaw was great in this but it did rather glamourise gangsters.

I think that maybe overestimates people’s innate desire to be passively entertained. It could be a novelty for a while, but could quickly become a chore. Although future generations could see that differently I suppose.
@brianmc.bsky.social Art isn’t AI handing you what you ask for. It’s an artist placing something in your hands you didn’t know you were reaching for.
A slightly battered UK cinema ticket from 1988 for Biloxi Blues. The paper is faded and creased, with the film title clearly printed, a very typical example of late-1980s cinema ticket stock.
Poster for Biloxi Blues (1988). Matthew Broderick stands in U.S. Army uniform among a group of young recruits during World War II. The image suggests a mix of comedy and coming-of-age awkwardness set against the strict routines of military training.
In 1988, I suspect I went to see this more for Matthew Broderick than for Neil Simon. What I remember most, though, is coming away struck by just how good Christopher Walken was.

Cinema ticket for Throw Momma from the Train from Wycombe 6. Blue and pink ticket stub with perforated holes on the left, showing row G seat 23, dated 1.7.88, Friday evening screening, price £2.95.
Film poster for Throw Momma from the Train showing Billy Crystal sitting on railway tracks looking exasperated, with Danny DeVito standing behind him gesturing, against a pale blue sky background.
From a time when if Billy Crystal was in it, you’d go see it.
Feels like this one’s largely been forgotten.

Cinema ticket for Hello Again. Wycombe 6 ticket stub with blue and white design, perforated edge on the left, showing row F seat 7, an evening screening, and a printed price of £2.95.
Original poster for Hello Again featuring Shelley Long smiling and waving through a torn newspaper obituary page, with the tagline “Her life hasn’t been the same since her death.”
I have no recollection of this movie. The Wikipedia synopsis sounds bonkers and the trailer on YouTube looks terrible.
Although judging by the comments, some people seem to have very fond memories of it.

UK film poster for Maybe Baby. White background with a collage layout featuring Hugh Laurie prominently, alongside Joely Richardson and supporting cast. Characters are arranged around the title text “maybe baby” in purple, with the tagline about having children beneath. Clean, late-1990s studio comedy design.
Whilst promoting his recent autobiography, Ben Elton claimed that no one went to see his directorial debut, Maybe Baby.
Well, here’s proof that at least one person did. Me.

Vintage UK cinema ticket on a dark textured background for the film “Broadcast News”. The ticket shows the film title printed at the top right, with screen, row and seat details, and a clearly visible date printed on the ticket. The paper shows light wear and fading typical of late-1980s cinema tickets.
Film poster for “Broadcast News” showing William Hurt seated in the centre wearing a shirt and braces, with Holly Hunter and Albert Brooks standing behind him. A wall of television monitors fills the background. The actors’ names appear across the top, with the film title prominently displayed below.
When I saw Broadcast News, I had no idea I’d end up working in live television myself.
That bit where they rush the tape through the studio — I’ve seen that happen!
Great movie.

Film poster for “Moonstruck” on a dark textured background. Cher is shown jumping joyfully in front of a large full moon, arms raised, wearing a black coat and red heels. A city skyline runs along the base of the moon, with the title “Moonstruck” and the names Cher and Nicolas Cage beneath.

It wasn’t all alien hunters, vampires and cyborg cops in the late ’80s. I also went to see charming romantic comedies like Moonstruck. Or at least my peer group made me anyway.
Seem to remember quite enjoying this.

“I watched Someone to Watch Over Me the other night. I thought it was a really good movie. It’s a great movie.”

I don’t remember much about this one, but who am I to argue with Ridley’s assessment of his own film?

Maybox cinema ticket for RoboCop, dated Friday 5 February 1988. Screen 5, seat N25, 9:25pm showing, priced £2.50. Printed on pale blue paper with Maybox Movie Theatres branding for Queensmere Centre, Slough.
Original RoboCop poster showing RoboCop stepping out of a police car at night, lit by blue and purple city lights. The tagline reads “Part man. Part machine. All cop.” with the title RoboCop and “The future of law enforcement” beneath.
Predator. The Lost Boys. RoboCop.
All within a month. What a time to be alive.
There’s nothing new to say about this one that hasn’t already been said. A stone-cold classic, and if anything it only gets better with age. Still sharp, still funny, still brutal.

A vintage Maybox cinema ticket from the Queensmere Centre in Slough, dated Wednesday 3rd February 1988. The film is “Stepfather”, showing at 9.25pm, with a seat in Row E, Seat 11. The ticket cost £2.50. The stub is placed on a dark textured background with the date “3.2.88” written below in grey type.
The official poster for The Stepfather (1987). A man stands in a bathroom staring into a mirror. His reflection shows him dressed in a smart suit, looking serious. Written in the steam on the mirror are the words: “Who am I here?” The tagline above reads: “He wanted a perfect family in a perfect town. But they couldn’t measure up — neither could the others…” The bottom of the poster displays the film title and credits, with a dark, ominous tone throughout.
A lesser-known gem from the late ’80s. Released around the same time as Fatal Attraction, but unfairly overlooked. Terry O’Quinn is terrific—menacing, nuanced, unforgettable. Worth seeking out. Just steer clear of the 2009 remake.

@mikeseymour.bsky.social Hey Mike, would love to hear you, Matt & Jason discuss Adolescence on the Pod. I’m willing to accept the makers claim that each ep really is one take, but I feel there’s a lot more VFX removal of unwanted kit than they are admitting to. Would love to know your thoughts.
Hi Brian, I'd also like to know what prompt you used because my version of ChatGPT is absolutely adamant that it won't draw likenesses.
Fixed it.
Rinsed this in one sitting yesterday afternoon whilst the storm raged outside. Script, acting, production, absolutely top-tier from everyone involved. Fantastic entertainment all round. Might have to watch this every Christmas from now on!
Every minute you’re on here posting about it is a minute you’re not working through that list.

Yeah scientists, pull your fucking finger out.
