Keytar solo! Dream casting for the Jem And The Holograms movie

Movie Feature | Becky Suter | 23rd March 2014

When I was seven, I attempted to make my own keytar by looping the ends of the belt from my dad's dressing gown around my clunky Casio keyboard.

Review: The review of my review of I Give It A Year

Movie Feature | Ali Gray | 19th September 2013

A new website called Existimatum.com has launched which promises to rate and rank movie reviews - not the movies themselves, but the reviews of the movies. Their tagline is as lofty as their ideals: 'Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?' translates as 'Who watches the watchmen?' Which is hilarious, because the site reads like it was written by a spambot.
