With 300 Frank Miller and Zack Snyder appear to have done the seemingly impossible and created a film from a graphic novel which will appeal to both adolescent boys and “grown up” ladies such as myself. One look at the poster should explain why. There’s 299 more of them like that don’t you know.
I love him all year round
The lovely Simon Pegg. Mainly for bringing us the wonders that are Hot Fuzz, Spaced and Shaun of the Dead but this was what finally did it: “The scene in episode 1.5 [of Spaced] where Tim, Daisy and Brian watch the original Star Wars trilogy features the Ewoks' song from the end of the original version of Star Wars: Episode VI—Return of the Jedi heard off-screen. The show's producers were unable to obtain permission to use the actual music, so Simon Pegg wrote down the entire song's lyrics from memory and then performed it with Edgar Wright and Nick Frost.”
Yes, yes, I know I’m a total geek—I never tried to deny it. Simon, we're a match made in heaven!
Musical epiphanies
Following on from my gargantuan obsession with Ben Folds after discovering Songs for Silverman I am now championing the cause of The Shins who I think everyone should now be listening to. New Slang made me cry like a small child when I first heard it. Go and buy it now.

My friend once met his ultimate hero, Simon Pegg, and the only thing he managed to say was "Congrats!". He hasn't shown himself since.
