    Ghostbusters

    the skyscraper, the dogs jumping, the other universe in the fridge, unforgettable... but the references were too american for me at the time : there was nothing innocent about the marshmellow man, the hearst was another bulky american car. More dissappointing was the 'business is booming'...

    frank gehry

    yeah. Lush.... excessive. I wouldn't want to live there, or be next door. gehry's stopped shocking me and I'm sure that shouldn't be the case with architecture. Can't say i've actually walked round the places/spaces, I've only drooled over the pictures. love the process, love the ideas but I...

    the wire

    i can't make sense of his reviews, too convoluted and you need serious HipHop knowledge to catch the references. A shame as it's a section I look fwd to

    Team America: World Police

    i'm worried this'll be a re-tread of the South Park feature, tell me I'm wrong. + would it be just as effective on DVD, or does it need the cinema?

    Dodgy Boozers

    as luke was saying - how many times have you walked into a pub, everyone stops, turns and you swear you can heard a record being torn off a turntable.. most recently at the 'General Crack-Pipe' (not real name) in White City - on the outside it looks like a gutted building, burnt out cars in...

    the wire

    the question of whether or not to keep buying it comes up every month, and every year I wonder if I should bin my back issues (almost a decade). i seem to skim through reading the bold text to see what's been released as soon as it's out then read the articles a month or two later. first one i...
