Tetris (Film) — A Review

7th May, 2023: Tetris.


Potatoes … potatoes, potatoes, potatoes … !

It’s Sunday: so you know.

And, yes: I’ve got some spuds in the oven.

Frankly?

Dinner is almost ready to eat.

Equally as frankly?

Once it is eaten?

I’m going to be settling in with the AppleTV+ film, Tetris.

In 4k, so you know.

Once I’ve watched it … ?

I’ll have my written and video reviews up, tomorrow night: I’ll see you then!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 7-9-2016

You know … It’s day three of joblessness … 

And I manage avoid an interview!

One of the manager for a local post office literally phoned me, yesterday: to see if I could come in for an interview.

I said ‘No’: as I wanted to write a letter of complaint to my former employers, about the way things had gone.

I’m KICKING myself!   As the job sounded ideal!

Once I’d finished what I had to do?   I managed to phone the interviewer, to let her know I’d be available for the rest of the day.

But lord knows what’s going to happen, there … !

Another thing to worry about?   At least, to be kicking myself about?

Is the finances.

I’m now claiming benefits: and due to have my initial claim interview, tomorrow.

I can live with that.

But?

Only a few days ago, I’d’ve been looking forward to the 5th November: as the day sees the release of the completely animated version of The Power of the Daleks.

The long lost story is a Dalek one — obviously — and notable for being Troughton’s first.

I’m mildly gutted!

But hoping a minor miracle happens, to let me afford it …

Dad’s Army — Don’t Panic … !

6th March, 2016.

You know, it’s been the weekend of my birthday: Friday, just gone, so you know.

AND Mother’s Day.

Which means that … 

Well … 

It’s been rather long.

And … ?

Well, Friday definitely saw a shirt with just a bit too much gorgonzola dip.

And today … ?

Well, today saw a staff meeting, this morning: I came in third in the staff competition, winning a small prize in the process.

And, this afternoons, in a sort of joint celebration of Mother’s Day, AND my birthday … ?

Me and my family … ?

With the mild sense of irony my family tends to occasionally exhibit, my family and I went to see Dad’s Army …

Berberian Sound Studio: Blimey, there goes my ratings … !

Just as an additional extra thought for the start of this post … ?   I thought I should mention that Toby Jones, the main star of Berberian Sound Studio has bagged the Best Actor gong in this years Evening Standard Awards.   Please bear that in  mind … 
Blimey … 

Or perhaps, in line with something the Toby Jones character in the film I’ve seen tonight, has said, “Strike a light” …  !

Mmmmm … 

Yes, I’ve just spent a little more cash on an iTunes rental: in this case, the Peter Strickland directed, Berberian Sound Studio.

And I’m thinking I want you to tell me it’s as odd as I think it is …
