Like Callahan's stuff. Intrigued with this....

I didn't know he died in 2010, but I'm guessing the news wasn't widely reported in the UK. I'm not sure why I connected with the humour in his cartoons so, you like him, I broke my neck and spent a lot of time in hospital, but that wouldn't explain why I liked his cartoons beforehand.

When I was in a spinal unit (I spent time in two different ones), the first time I saw the cartoon below this text, I thought it was hilarious despite, or perhaps because, some staff members thought it was extremely bad taste.

RIP then. His stuff just tickles me as it plays on perceived wisdoms in general imo ...

I don't know about anyone else who saw Avengers: Infinity War, or has seen something else recently at the cinema, but I thought these films (at least based on the trailers) could be worth watching:

Johnny English Strikes Again – probably not a priority film, but it looks like fun.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom – definitely a film which will benefit from a big screen and loud soundtrack, and maybe having Jeff Goldblum back will be a big benefit.

I also saw the poster for this, and almost any film with Saoirse Ronan is going to be worth watching because she is such a brilliant actress and doesn't choose bad films.

This is the text from the article:

"Films such as The Greatest Showman and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? will be shown at the Edinburgh International Film Festival's (EIFF) open-air cinema this June.

Taking place at St Andrew's Square Garden, the cinema will be in place from Friday June 15 to Sunday 17.

Classics such as Big Trouble in Little China, Casablanca and Ghostbusters will be featured alongside blockbusters like Wonder Woman and Thor: Ragnarok.

Family favourites like Paddington and The Incredibles will also be shown.

Hosted in partnership by the EIFF, Essential Edinburgh, and new sponsor Mackays, all screenings will be free, with no ticket required.

Mark Adams, EIFF Artistic Director said: "Our annual selection of free screenings are always the perfect way to get in the movie mood in the weekend before the Film Festival begins.

"From Casablanca to The Greatest Showman, this is a selection of great films that will appeal to film fans young and old."

Launched in 2011, the St Andrew Square screenings were created to bring film lovers into the city centre, to celebrate the capital's rich culture and creativity and generate excitement during the run-up to the EIFF."

Thanks, sorry for that
