This blog is about a former Englishman, now an American citizen and his clashes with American popular culture with an emphasis on religion's deleterious effects. Unless you live here, it is very hard to understand religion's pernicious grip - especially in the political arena.

2012 - Films to avoid. List # 1
Following on from 2011, possibly the worst ever year for original ideas in
movies, I offer this list of films to AVOID in 2012 courtesy of Empire
magazine.
Remember the criteria are simple :-
1. No sequels
2. No comic books
3. No TV show adaptations of shows from my childhood
4. No Jason Bourne
5. No Mel Gibson
6. No remakes
Plus, we have to start being careful - the studios are dropping the dreaded
number in movie titles, but they still are giving us a sequels.
Sucks! Ya! Boo! to THAT.
So here's my first 2012 list from the Turkey Farm :-
The Amazing Spider-Man
The Avengers
Wrath Of The Titans
Streetdance 2
American Pie: Reunion
Battleship
MIB III
G.I. Joe 2
Ice Age: Continental Drift
The Bourne Legacy
Total Recall
The Sweeney
The Expendables 2
Taken 2 ( Oh fuck no! )
