“Some people say I like films. Those people are wrong. I *love* films.” – Me. I said this.

Rodney has been writing about films for well over two decades, appreciates a good wine, the love of his wife and kids, and the affection of his dog and cats. He has a fondness of cheesy 90’s action and classic Hollywood, hates that physical media is disappearing, and wishes somebody would make a high-budget series of The Neverending Story.

Nice to see John Boyega get the Rising Star award but it's perhaps a year or two too late. He was a "rising star" in Attack The Block, now he's a "Star" isn't he?

  You have to remember that nobody other than us film buffs even saw Attack The Block. Star Wars was his "breakout" role, so I can understand why he'd get the gong for it.
  
  I just hope he can continue to capitalise on his new high profile.
