Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone: Chapter Seven

Hey hey hey! We’re back (on Bi Visibility Day, no less, so I have to post something) in the world of Harry Potter. I’ve starting recapping the new season of American Horror Story in between recaps, so if you’re in the mood for some more grown-up horror, you know where to go.

Expert vs Newbie: The Predator

(I’m the newbie) (and I kind of liked it)

thethreepennyguignol's avatarNo But Listen

Hello, and welcome to a new series on No But Listen! In this series, we’ll be looking at entries into long-running franchises from two points of view – one from that of a newbie to the series, and one from an expert. Our inaugural entry into the series is a look at Shane Black’s The Predator, the latest entry into the Predator cinematic series. To the reivew(s), you son of a bitch!

Expert

On paper it seemed like Shane Black was the perfect choice to helm a new Predator movie. The Iron Man 3 and The Nice Guys director has history with the franchise, with his role in the first movie as cannon fodder for the titular predator onscreen, and as a script polisher offscreen. It’s safe to say that this guy knows what makes a great Predator movie, and for two thirds of The Predator, that promise is…

American Horror Story S8E2: The Morning After

If there was one word I had to use to describe this season so far, it would be “cavernous”. And that’s not just a reference to the enormous mansion where most of the action of these last two episodes has taken place (kudos to the gorgeous cinematography for conveying that dizzying sense of space, especially in this week’s outing), but because there still feels like a lot of dead space in this story.

American Horror Story S8E1: The End

Ah, yes, we’re back: another season of TV’s bizzaro sideshow act, American Horror Story. And this is a show that I will always come to with great interest, because, no matter how bad it’s gotten (and it’s been bad), there is always something there to keep me engaged: the camp, the gore, the gleeful evil, the talented actors, the magic direction. I’ve reviewed the last couple of seasons (Roanoke and Cult), and really enjoyed writing about them week to week, because trying to make sense of this screeching mess of a show is just – well, it’s the kind of pointlessly difficult task I like to throw myself into for my own masochistic sense of self-brutality. This season, Apocalypse, brings together seasons one and three, with the promise of a post-apocalyptic nightmare drenched in Ryan Murphy’s inimitable sense of camp horror fun (oh, and since you’re obviously the kind of deviant who would be into that kind of thing if you’re here reading these recaps, check out ALPHA FEMALE, my new femdom erotica series that’s available for download right now!)

ALPHA FEMALE Part Two Release!

Whee! Happy Sunday, one and all, and thanks to the bunches of you who downloaded the first part of ALPHA FEMALE last week! I really hope you enjoyed it, and, if you did, please feel free to hop on over and leave a review!

The second part of the series is here, and it’s a whole lot kinkier, as Syd finds herself caught up in a kink party and realises her desires may run deeper than she ever imagined:

cover2.jpg

Syd has started to come to terms with the fact that her feelings towards female domination are a lot more complicated than she first thought, but she has no idea where to take them next. When her kinky friend Ava invites her to a play party in the city, she knows it’s the chance she needs to explore her new desires in a deeper way. And she soon finds herself drawn into playing voyeur to an intense femdom scene that sends her spiralling into a world she never knew she wanted to be a part of. But, unbeknownst to her, there’s someone she knows at this party – and they might just be exactly what she’s looking for…

 

You can get the next part of the series right here, and, if you want to catch up on the first part, you can download it for free here! I really hope you’re enjoying reading the series as much as I’m enjoying writing it, and, as ever, thanks for your support!

Movie Review: American Animals

I don’t just love it because of Evan Peters, I swear.

Bojack Horseman Season Five: Some Wild Predictions

So, the next season of Bojack Horseman is right around the corner, and, this being one of my all-time favourite shows ever in the history of television, I’m pretty fuckin’ excited! I wrote about last season’s dealings with perfect bottle episodes here, and the history of misogyny here, but this time I’m going for something a little lighter – well, as light as I can get while talking about this show, at least. With the new trailer (below) freshly released, let’s shoot some guesses for what the newest season of Bojack Horseman might hold!
