‘Attack The Block’ Nominated for Four Awards in the Jameson Empire Awards 2012
I am the very proud owner of two Empire Awards from last year's ceremony and now, my good friend Joe Cornish is up for four potential rectangle gongs at this year's awards. So vote for 'Attack The Block' in Best Comedy, Best Horror, Best British Film and for the amazing John Boyega as Best Male Newcomer. Believe. The first round of voting for the 2012 Jameson Empire Awards is now complete. We've sifted through the virtual sacks of entries and assembled the shortlist of finalists who will be waiting with baited breath on the night itself. It's not over yet, though. ...

“Daddy’s Song” by The Monkees
I loved The Monkees. I love The Monkees. As I kid I wanted to sing like Micky, be as cool as Mike, goof around like Peter and of course, dance like Davy. Watch one of my favourite clips from the movie 'HEAD' and say so long to Mr Jones. RIP Davy.

Twickenham Film Studios RIP?
I was saddened to hear in the news that Twickenham Film Studios might be closing. The nearly 100 year old British studio is the home to such classics as 'Help', 'A Hard Days Night', 'Alfie', 'The Italian Job', 'Repulsion' and also my beloved desert island movie, 'An American Werewolf In London'. But not only that, it was the studio where we shot the very first series of 'Spaced'. So the original interior for 23 Meteor Street was shot in Twickenham in 1999. In fact the last scene of that series we shot there was the zombie dream sequence from episode 1.3 ...

UPDATE: UK Event | 28 Jan 2012 | ‘Shaun of the Dead’ & ‘Life Is Sweet’ Double Bill with Edgar Wright
UPDATE: Wednesday 25th January, 2012. I'm afraid there's some good news, bad news for attendees of the London Comedy Festival this weekend. I am currently in LA writing my next movie with Simon Pegg and we are both working furiously around his duties on the Starship Enterprise. So sadly I can no longer attend the event in person on London as originally planned. So I guess the good news is that writing is going very well, the bad news is that I was really hoping to be back in London and see you all. Instead I plan to make it up to ...

The Wright Stuff III: That’s All Folks…
And lo, the 'Movies Edgar Has Never Seen' became the films I have seen. In the last 8 days at the New Beverly Cinema, I saw 17 movies for the first time on the big screen with a great crowd. It was bliss and thanks to all who attended. Anyone who attended can tell you what a blast it was to see these movies with an audience. It's my perfect way to spend my time, in a darkened theatre with fellow movie fans. And to fill in my cultural gaps in front of a paying audience was a hugely fulfilling experience. ...

Nike+ Fuelband – Counts
Rocky, Indy, Amadeus, Ferris Bueller, Bruce Lee… Scott Pilgrim. Good company to be in. Running counts. Jams count. Style counts. Splits count. Basketball, soccer, tennis, football, snowboarding, skiing, lacrosse, baseball, softball – those all count. Walking, flying, training, cardio, jumping, stacking, taking the stairs – they all count too. The Nike+ FuelBand. Life is a sport.... [Read more]
‘Attack The Stable’
Far too many ponies to explain in one text… Uploaded by BronyComms on Jan 10, 2012 Hurray, another one of those movie trailers with ponies in it. Haven’t made one of these in a long time, but that doesn’t mean I slacked off. If anything, this is the pony trailer I’ve spent the most time on making it look perfect. Read More →
Edgar Wright Syndrome
Spare a thought for this young man afflicted with “Edgar Wright syndrome”. It must be awful for him.
