"Rational romantic mystic cynical idealist"

Friday night was movie/series night


"This Is The End" (2013): From the freebies box at work... A comedy set during the Apocalypse, with actors playing themselves? Sounds subversive. At times, it feels a tad subversive, too. But in hindsight, it's really just a bunch of mates larking about. Take away Michael Cera and - especially - Danny McBride and it wouldn't be worth the bother.

"Queen's Blade: Exiled Virgin" (2009 Japan, 2013 here): From DL, who isn't into anime... Five hours of swordmaidens'n'saucery - and by "saucery", I mean the most blatant fan service possible. There can't be one fight in this yarn about exotic female warriors duelling for the right to rule that doesn't feature bare boobs, a panty shot or both.
