The Will of the Many
Book · Jul 2026
by James Islington
Ok but struggles in the shadow of Red Rising
Formula 1: Drive to Survive
TV · Season 5 · Jun 2026
Good watch. Different life’s these drivers live.
Project Hail Mary
Movie · Apr 2026
Brilliant. Fantastic adaptation of the book. Stands alone as a top movie well
Being Gordon Ramsay
TV · Season 1 · Apr 2026
What it takes to perform at the top. But primarily good marketing.
Deadwood
TV · Season 2 · Mar 2026
Slow but deep. Strange parallels between the good rush and ai rush
Her
Movie · Mar 2026
Hits hard in 2026. Amazing foresight in 2013. Didn’t grab me until the end.
Zootopia 2
Movie · Feb 2026
Fun family watch. Nothing special. Didn’t really make sense but what does that matter sometimes.
Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery
Movie · Dec 2025
Old school murder mystery vibes - perfect for Christmas
Schitt's Creek
TV · Season 2 · Dec 2025
Easy light hearted watch. Sometimes exactly what you need.
The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!
Movie · Dec 2025
Up there will the all time classic comedies. Aged like fine wine - but funnier.
The Naked Gun
Movie · Dec 2025
Hilarious comedy somehow funnier in 2025 than ever. Post woke course correction.
Schitt's Creek
TV · Season 1 · Dec 2025
Good show to wind down to. Simple is sometimes what you need.
Selling Sunset
TV · Season 9 · Nov 2025
The agent drama makes this a tense watch despite the beautiful houses.
Pantheon
TV · Season 1 · Nov 2025
Recommended by Sam Altman for a reason. Alt view on AI might play out.
Foundation
TV · Season 3 · Sept 2025
Good sci-fi, very well done. Not as good as some of the previous seasons, but I'll keep watching.
Alone
TV · Season 3 · Sept 2025
Makes you think how close to the edge we are. This used to be life.
The MANIAC
Book · Sept 2025
by Benjamin Labatut
Worth it for the section on AI at the end. We need more geniuses in the world. More creativity.
Couples Therapy New Zealand
TV · Season 1 · Aug 2025
True reality TV, although the therapist struggles to match the quality of the US equivalent.
Last And First Men
Book · Jul 2025
by William Olaf Stapledon
A little all over the place for my liking.
Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One
Movie · Jun 2025
Less impressive on the rewatch in prep for the final reckoning. Hollywood anti AI trope gets boring.
Couples Therapy Australia
TV · Season 1 · Jun 2025
Therapist not as good as the US version but still interesting.
Clarkson's Farm
TV · Season 4 · Jun 2025
Good fun. Clarkson often does what I would do in that situation. Not all the time though.
The Thinking Game
Movie · Jun 2025
The best documentary about AI and the living British legend that is Demis.
Cocoon
Game · May 2025
Beautiful game. Not too long. Played whilst in rehab from a ruptured Achilles.
Philosophy and the Real World an introduction to Karl Popper
Book · May 2025
by Bryan Magee
Love Popper but Deutsch communicates better.
Piece by Piece
Movie · Mar 2025
Cool way to tell a story. Love anything about people dedicated to their art.
Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever
Movie · Jan 2025
Fascinating look inside the world of Brian Johnson.
Project Hail Mary
Book · Oct 2024
by Andy Weir
Best book I've read in a long time. Popperian problem solving.
The Godfather Part III
Movie · Sept 2024
Weakest of the three. Difficult to compare outside of its predecessors.
Wise Guy David Chase and The Sopranos
TV · Sept 2024
Behind-the-scenes look at maybe the greatest show ever made.
Dark Matter
TV · Season 1 · Aug 2024
Interesting concept of the multiverse that maybe closer to base reality than we think.
Lawrence of Arabia
Movie · Jun 2024
Wonderful movie. I can't believe it took me this long to watch it.
Red Rising
Book · Apr 2024
by Pierce Brown
Took about a third of the book to grip me, but once it did, it still hasn't let me go.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
Movie · Feb 2024
Might be the best movie on the multiverse yet.
Robbie Williams
TV · Season 1 · Dec 2023
I only watched because he was born local to me. Be careful what you wish for.
Ed Sheeran: The Sum of It All
TV · Season 1 · Jun 2023
Interesting guy. Didn't realise how big he is.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
TV · Season 1 · Nov 2022
I liked it. Not a billion dollars liked it, but still.
The French Dispatch of the Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun
Movie · Jan 2022
Great movie. One of a kind director.
