Movies, life and whatever you're having yourself. 🇮🇪

@fitzfromdublin I remember when Irish Twitter was a thing. *stares misty eyed into the middle distance*.

Seriously though, it was a lifesaver during those bloody lockdowns. It's been a bummer to see Musk tear it down for bluetick rubbish and ragebait.

The Irish government is letting spending go wild because they literally have no other idea.
The opposition’s big idea is that the govt isn’t spending enough.
The IMF are coming back, aren’t they?

@TheBrickovich Now I'm picturing Walken and Chamlet settling the fate of the galaxy with a dance-off.

I'm adjusting my usual summer of action movies formula for an Abel Ferra classic. Christopher Walken and Lawrence Fishbourne head up the best cast #Bootlegfriday has ever seen in "King of New York".

Join us this Friday and please repost.

@TheBrickovich "I feel no remorse. It's a terrible thing". And then he dances his arse off. 😄

@eattrashgofast They sure can!

@DonaldClarke63 Social Media's encourages monomaniacal fixation as part of it's business model.

@fitzfromdublin Watched the 80's TV mini-series on YouTube during the lockdowns. It had a wonderful lead performance from Duvall, a fine ensemble plus an impossibly beautiful Diane Lane. And some Irish immigrants who run afoul of river snakes. Maybe it was a reference to St. Patrick?

@hardcutpost @TheBrickovich You finally pushed me to acknowledge the British summer calender Steve. I hope that you are pleased with yourself. 😄

Many things mark the start of an Irish summer. Raid, wind and the fact that it can be simultaneously too hot and too cold. But it's also the return of #Bootlegfriday's summer of action movies. Details to follow on Wednesday.

@Darren_Mooney I enjoyed it but it did get annoying that it couldn't go one minute without making an ironic deflating joke. It didn't reach MCU levels but it did undermine it's impact a bit.

@Tweets_of_Oscar What about the Russians?

[Wesley Dolan. @WesleyDolan]

@TheEricGoldman I wouldn't be optimistic about the box-office prospects of Amazon forthcoming rehash of Highlander. The original is a fun movie but it's strictly a cult movie with a surprising amount of crap sequels and spin-offs.

[Wesley Dolan. @WesleyDolan]

Well the weather was a big bag of shite today. But a lovely Wagyu beef burger with fired onions, melted cheese and Ballymaloe relish was a fine coping mechanism. Summer is a state of mind. In the the stomach anyway.

@1rorycowan The October attacks were appalling. But I have zero interest in bashing Ireland on the altar of Zionism. Which is fundamentally a foreign nationalism. Especially since the British right and Unionism are using Israel as a pretext for sneering malice and Paddybashing.

Wishing our Paddy a Very Very Happy Birthday! 😀😀😀 @Prefabsprout

@Aldamir @aigne_aighne @realLangerDan @IlvesToomas Neutrality has served us well. An military alliance with Britian has little appeal.

[Wesley Dolan. @WesleyDolan]

@Aldamir @IlvesToomas And Brexiters and the DUP unwisely believed that Ireland would be thrown under the bus by the EU. Look where that ended up.
