    Bluecrowne: A Greenglass House Story (Greenglass House #3) by Kate Milford
    The Dispatcher by John Scalzi (AB)
    Mogworld by Yahtzee Croshaw (AB)
If you have an Audible account one of the free Originals this month is The Dispatcher. If you like Scalzi you should check it out.

I did not know that Yahtzee Croshaw had a career doing anything other than writing (Jam is pretty good as well) so it was weird to read reviews of the book and see so many people talk about Zero Punctuation, his "famous" gig. I remember hearing about it quite a few years ago but I never bothered to check it out.

26/50 Movies
  • Hogfather (2006)
    Adventures in Babysitting (1987)
    Brigsby Bear (2017)
    Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993)
    Better Off Dead... (1985)
    Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
    LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: Aquaman - Rage of Atlantis (2018)
    ¡Three Amigos! (1986)
    For Your Consideration (2006)
    Bumblebee (2018)
    Sorry to Bother You (2018)
    Blood Father (2016)
    Seven Psychopaths (2012)
    Sicario (2015)
    Bronson (2008)
    The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks (2017)
    Christopher Robin (2018)
    Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (2015)
    Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)
    Top Secret! (1984)
    How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019)
    Captain Marvel (2019)
    Vox Lux (2018)
    Tucker & Dale vs. Evil (2010)
    Shaun of the Dead (2004)
    The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018)
My son loved T&DvE. He was less keen on Shaun but it was the gore that he wasn't a fan of: he kept looking for a skip-ahead button in certain scenes.

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs was OK.

    Mogworld by Yahtzee Croshaw (AB)
    The Pro by Garth Ennis (GN)
    Nameless by Grant Morrison (GN)
    The Left-Handed Fate by Kate Milford
If you have an Audible account one of the free Originals this month is The Dispatcher. If you like Scalzi you should check it out.

I did not know that Yahtzee Croshaw had a career doing anything other than writing (Jam is pretty good as well) so it was weird to read reviews of the book and see so many people talk about Zero Punctuation, his "famous" gig. I remember hearing about it quite a few years ago but I never bothered to check it out.

The Pro was middling at best. If you like Garth Ennis you might like this, it's got everything he's known for in it, but if you don't then this is certainly a product of its time and doesn't really have a place in 2018 other than to say "huh, that was something."

    The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018)
    Killer Elite (2011)
    Johnny English Strikes Again (2018)
    Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs was OK. Killer Elite was terrible, I don't know why Jason Statham, Clive Owen and Robert De Niro decided they should be in a terrible movie together. Good fight scenes, but otherwise deplorable. Johnny English was alright, my son is a fan of Rowan Atkinson so we had to watch it. Kind of predictable, you know? But fun.
