MrL_JaKiri posted:Clearly. Maybe I came on a bit strong. I'm not disputing what he said, it just sounded so absurd the way he was presenting it. The cicadas evolved to have prime number life cycles not because of some transcendent link between biology and maths, but because those that didn't have died out. Cicadas don't know about prime numbers, it's not built into them. Same with numbers and music, the music system was built so that those rules were true, because notes sound pleasing to the ear in a 2:1 frequency ratio. The human ear doesn't contain those ratios in it. The way he described everything made it seem like something out of The Secret instead of just focusing on maths being awesome.

Ok good, I'm glad I'm meant to be enjoying The Hour, Radio Times has been slating it (yet still making it Choice of the Day, as is their way), wasn't sure whether it was Alison Graham failing to notice brilliance again or if it was meant to be boring (The woman LOATHES The Wire yet loving LOVES Mad Men, so hard to trust her opinion).Adrianics posted:It's a good show. I knew one of the supporting players in secondary school and he was a complete oval office, so that's a little weird. Please tell me this is Burn Gorman, if so tell me Everything. Otherwise I presume the kid who was filming the lightbulb?

Sorry to drag this back to kids TV but I am surprised I didnt see mention of Jeopardy, one of the best kids TV series ever. EDIT - probably a bit harsh just to label it as 'kids' TV tbh. It was agenuinely good TV series.

Ugh, Idris Elba is an awful TV presenter... Anyone see How Hip Hop Changed the World, which was on last night? I could literally only watch 5 minutes before switching off, annoyed.

The Guardian asked him to write an article about the riots over the weekend (he didn't have time for a whole article, but did email them a statement). He's really in vogue right now, it seems.

Plus he probably got paid a buttload for what must have only been a days work for the hip hop program. Same for the vodafone ads, it's easy money and I don't have anything against him for that. I know i'd do the same if I was in his position.

Ghost Rider should never have been made into a film. He's an excellent character, but not for the 2 hour summer blockbuster film market.

But yeah, he's hot property right now and he's using that to line his pockets, as well he should. Maybe in time he'll actually do something genuinely good again. (Luthor is silly)

The Ghost Rider "sequel" is not a sequel, rather a new Ghost Rider film that happens to still have Nic Cage in the lead role. It'll be directed by the Crank duo, so safe to say it'll be a different film. But probably still bad.

It instilled the feeling I'm more used to while on the internet: that is, the uncertainty of which would be weirder: this guy existing, or someone willing to spend so much time to create him. I mean, given that it's Banksy, I'm ready to believe it's the latter, but drat; that was an actual young Mr. Brainwash in some of the shots.

Does anyone know if there's any way to watch the 2006 BBC documentary 'The Armstrongs'? If been looking for a dvd or somewhere that streams it but I've had no luck.

I figured it was most likely that the 'deception' in the film occurs at the point when Banksy told him to put on a little art show. Rather than just offhand suggesting it, I suppose the two of them put their heads together to work out how to make a show that would intentionally expose these street art poseurs as being entirely undiscerning. Certainly I'd like to believe that all the rest of the film happened as shown...

Madonna's puckered face punching through one of Pop Art's most iconic images befits her legacy as music's number 1 female. But Mr Brainwash wouldn't see the difference between that and giving Spock some pink eyeshadow.

That sort of thing never bothered me until recently. It's very hard to take John Malkovich discussing Harold Pinter on The Culture Show seriously when I'd seen him not 2 nights before in Jonah Hex.

Or Jeremy Irons. Happens a lot really.Daedo posted:Oh Chirst, what was this show? Its doing my head in trying to remember the name of it! I think it was Finders Keepers. No idea that made it over there (I'm Australian). Speaking shows from 20+ years ago, I loved all of Tony Robinson's story telling stuff when I was growing up. Fat Tulip was great, as was his one-man version of Odysseus.
