Look outside. It’s probably raining. Settle in with some Starmix, some Maltesers, a cup of tea (or a few beers) and spend the day on Netflix. It’s what Jebus would have wanted.
You’ve probably forgotten that a lot of these movies are still on Netflix, and they’re perfect for a lazy Sunday (or Monday, or Tuesday…) afternoon.
This is the bit where you put your phone on silent and you let us do the scrolling, so you don’t have to.

The Big Short
In a sentence? Steve Carell in a very different kind of role, alongside Brad Pitt, Christian Bale and Ryan Gosling – not a bad cast.
