    From Evil Dead to Meatballs – heck that’s some leap of genre, a mighty fine soundtrack as well. love Moondust and of course the title track. On the list for an encore view!
    And now, for a double leap of genre (or bovine over the moon), First Cow with the 4:3 aspect adding a retro vibe to the experience. As the film does not boast whizbangery in…[Read more]

    The Batman with ads consumed most of the evening. All the sounds of Gotham are imbued in the all pervading dark noise, thereby taking a little away from the fine score and dialogue.

    That fixed it, have to say forgot all about the shader issue, originally thought this was the issue, misinterpreted it, turns out the graphics subsystem is completely unaffected.
