At Buffalo Press it’s fair to say we like our down time. We had grand intentions for each of us to give a preview of all things awesome in 2012 ...

The Many Failures of Jack Thompson
Failing, in itself, is not always a bad thing. If the cause is important enough then simply attempting to succeed is sufficient – you can move on with your life knowing you gave it your best shot. On the other hand there are some people who just don’t know when to quit, they keep pushing and pushing [...]
DC Animated Films VS. Marvel Manga
DC and Marvel aren’t just happy to rule both the comic world and the Silver Screen, in fact the two comic giants have tried (with little success) to break back into the world of animated adaptations since the giddy heights of the nineties Batman and X-men animated series.
The Science Police #1 – Speed of light VS. Neutrinos
Ok, when we started this site we promised Infotainment – well I think we can all agree we have been pretty light on the information side of things and when Buffalo Press make a promise we damn well think about making it happen (admittedly, that’s as far as it usually gets though). So in an [...]
[Top 5] Returning TV Shows This Fall…*ahem*….Autumn
Yes, the nights are getting longer, the walk to work is getting significantly colder and those balmy evenings sitting in a beer garden with an ice cold beverage are but a memory – but ‘Lo!’ all is not lost
Trailer of the Week(ish) – The (possibly) Amazing Spiderman
When a new film is first announced you tend to get an instant gut feeling, sometimes it’s ‘yup, that’s awesome’, other times it’s just a straight up *facepalm*. When The Amazing Spiderman reboot was originally announced let’s just say my face was well and truly palmed (note: not as sexy as it sounds).
[Golden Oldies] – Oliver Stone’s JFK
On November 22nd, 1963, John Fitzgerald ‘Jack’ Kennedy was shot and killed in Dallas, Texas. Everybody loves a good conspiracy theory and apart from the moon landing (recently covered in the documentary Transformers 3), the JFK assasination is the big one.
[TV Review] Suits – A show best enjoyed with Frozen Cider…
I’m going to avoid recounting the painful series of unlikely events that occur in the pilot of Suits and jump right into the general plot instead. Mike Ross (a caring, under-achieving, intelligent and scruffy guy) is inexplicably hired to be the associate of top lawyer Harvey Specter (your average snooty, suit-wearing lawyer). Needless to say they [...]
[Film Review] Captain America
It seems only a few weeks ago that Thor first swung his hammer from Asgaard and into our hearts, when all of sudden America’s favourite poster-child is popping his wing-tipped head around the corner to steal his thunder (get it?).
[Book Review] Stone Junction
by Jim Dodge When a novel boasts an introduction by the normally elusive Thomas Pynchon and a quote from the Literary Review that states “I expect anyone glancing at this review to make a respectable effort to read this book”, it’s probably best to give it more than just a cursory glance at Waterstones
Buffalo Geekly #1 – Shire Snaps, Spidey, Morrison & more…
Welcome to the first of our Buffalo Geekly posts– bringing together all (or a half dozen) of the past week’s best geektastic news. You can use it to impress your friends, get some unique updates or re-use the material as an ice-breaker to chat-up the girl/guy at Bristol Comic-con strangely dressed as Greedo.
Pottermore – Someone needs to send JK Rowling a Howler!
Unlike my fellow Buffalo Press cohort James, whose attitude towards Harry Potter is that of a wizarding Nazi, I have always been a fan of the Potter books. I chalk it up to an overly active imagination and my juvenile hope that like Harry, I too will one day discover I’m an awesome wizard (I’m [...]
[Trailer of the Week] Killer Elite
Wow, even I’ve outdone myself this time – it must have been at least 4 weeks since the last ‘Trailer of the Week’. I offer no excuses, save that I had an awesome birthday and very much enjoyed two festivals back-to-back (one unofficially sponsored by Buffalo Press).
What do you mean you don’t need your passport?! It’s an island…
A preview of the Isle of Wight festival 2011 Ahhh it’s that time of the year again – festival season is upon us! Can you smell the rock ‘n roll in the air? Can you hear ‘The Man’ weeping as 70,000 people turn their back on him to get their live music fix?
[Film Review] X-men: First Class
Set in the sixties before they were mortal enemies, Xmen: First Class follows the separate exploits of super-powered mutants Charles Xavier (the future Professor X) and Erik Lehnsherr (pre-Magneto).
[Film Review] Pirates of the Caribbean: On stranger tides
It’s been four years since we last saw the spray of the sea breaking against the bough of the Black Pearl and I for one have been waiting very impatiently for this film.
[Book Review] On Being: A scientist’s exploration of the great questions of existence
Peter Atkins is a brilliant scientist and the author of about a trillion science books (with the large majority being textbooks) – he is also a notorious atheist and has long argued in favour of science in the great science VS religion debate alongside others such as Philip Pullman and Christopher Hitchens.
[Trailer of the Week] The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn
After months of being forced to stare at stills we finally get to see what everyone’s favourite Belgique (yeah, that’s right Poirot) looks like in all his full cinematic pantalooned glory.
[Film Review] Monsters
One of my biggest regrets last year was failing to see Monsters at the cinema. The story of its creation instantly struck a chord with me – plucky first time British director rounds up a minuscule crew, jets around the world filming (improvising much of the dialogue), doing the special effects on his laptop during [...]
