The Log

25th August 2026
Hi, Seems none of my trackers are working at the moment. I’m trying to fix but it’s proving difficult. Give me a few days please.
Further update – I sent hours over multiple days trying to fix this and have just found out it’s a microsoft issue. I’ll give a week for them to fix. If they fix it, I will have to rebuild the Stephen King page, but fortunately I hadn’t messed with the others and they should self-resolf when Microsoft fix the issue. If it isn’t working in a week, I will have to try another solution.
Hopefully back soon!
Watched Coyote vs Acme- much better than I expected. Gets a 2.
Latest Spiderman – really good – 3.
Cant think of more right now.
Finished Buffy and Angel. Disappointed with Angel, Buffy was acceptable :).

An even longer gap. Lost heart a bit to be honest. But a couple of days ago, someone actually tried to buy a tracker. It didn’t work, but in true completionist style, they persevered, messaged me and even supported me through the “buy me a coffee” page. I’m very grateful and I’m hoping it will inspire me to come back to it. Knowing that just one person appreciated it has made me very happy.
I have emailed them a copy of the tracker and will fix the download.
I should get back to watching Wonder Woman soon.
I saw the new Spiderman in 4D. I think 3D would have been enough, but it was a very good film too – gets a 3.
Also saw The Odyssey – gets a 3.
Moana live action – 2.
Various others I cant remember atm.
Hopefully update again soon.

Wow! It’s been longer than I thought. Honestly, the pages don’t seem to have much interest and I had lost a little bit of momentum. I’ve “read” a few more King books – just finished Blaze and really enjoyed it. I think the Bachman books are my favourite ones. Finished Isis, wasn’t bad for the time. She is way over-powered. About halfway through season 2 of Wonder Woman and finding it a slog to be honest. Will try to be more active.

Not update much the past few days. Working on Buffy-verse.
Watching Secrets of Isis.
Cinema – saw Wicked, part 2 – was very good. Gets a 3.

22 November 2025:
First official entry. I’ve watched A LOT already, and already been putting some updates as I go. But I have been deleting them. Thought a permanent record and place to record thoughts as I go might be good.

Recent watching updates – finished Shazaam! 1970s series. Overall, I’m afraid I think it is pretty poor and quite dated. If you are a casual watcher, maybe watch one for fun. They are all pretty much the same plot and no over-riding arc.

Recent reading update – I’m on the last Dark Tower book in the series. 20 hours to go. I’ve really enjoyed the series and am a little sad it’s coming to an end. About 20 hours to go (3 weeks max at my normal speed I think).

Recent related cinema watches:
Quick explanation of my patented rating system – It’s a score of 1, 2 or 3.
1 = I think it’s really good and you should watch it.
2 = I think it’s reasonable or good and you should watch it if you want to.
3 = Don’t bother, it’s awful.
The Long Walk – excellent in my opinion. Rating: 1.
Running Man – I was disappointed as I was expecting a more serious take on the book and it is fairly comedic action. Rating: 2.
Recent King movie I watched on Streaming:
Monkey – Awful. Tries to be funny – isn’t. Rating: 1.
Unrelated movies:
I Swear – Great true story about a man with Tourette syndrome. Rating: 1.
Smashing Machine – Didn’t like it at all. Rating: 1.
