You know, I’ve got a very bad habit … !
Well …
Actually, I’ve probably either got — or had — several.
Not one of which … ?
Is a bad habit of staying up late … and then whinging in the morning … !
Actually … ?
It is getting rather late: so, on top of telling you I’ll finish this post in the metaphorical morning … ?
Is the fact I’m going to tell you I’ve just watched the J. J. Abrams directed Super 8, and come away pleased with what I’ve seen.

There we go:
I told you I had a bad habit of finishing things later, didn’t I … ?
At ANY rate, let me finish off telling you about Super 8, shall I … ?
Set in 1979, Super 8 sees Joe Lamb — Joel Courtney — and his friends struggling to film a home made zombie movie for a local film festival.
However, as the group are filming at a rural railway station, a train derails, right in front of them.
A derailment that — understandably — scares the life out of our heroes.
And a derailment that — unnoticed, in all the explosions — also allows something to escape from its confinement …

Now, I’ve got to admit, I was right about feeling tired, when I started writing this particular post: add whiney to that, and you’ve probably got my mood in a nutshell.
However … ?
I’ve got to admit, I came away pleased to have seen Super 8, last night.
It’s something of an old fashioned ETesque type film. But one with some modern take on the late 1970s that I think won’t disappoint.
Personally … ?
Well …
Super 8

I love it when people comment. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively adult. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
If you can also leave you comments on today’s Teaser Video, that would be good.
Thank you.
