Angry Birds


When I heard about this movie I was like no way. How stupid could this movie be? Not meaning to sound at all passive aggressive but I thought the concept of making a movie about birds flying into pig built structures was dumb.

Then I saw the teaser trailer this morning and I laughed, yes LAUGHED! It follows the story of down and out Red (Jason Sudeikis), the female birds pay no attention to him, he's woken up by a kid hitting his ball off his house, yes I've been there and I admit it I wanted to kick the kid into the ocean too.

Then we are introduced to Chuck (Josh Gad) and his million yoga type poses including downward duck which gets a yuck reaction from Red. Bomb (Danny McBride) tells Red that when he gets upset he has a tendency to blow up and does so during a surprise party. We are then introduced to Leonard the Pig (Bill Hader) and his comical stairs. Then its back it Red who looks like he's about to blow.

Definitely looks good and a much better premise than I thought it would be. Maybe my gut was right but I'm going to give it a chance because it looks really funny and has a great comedic cast.

Check out the trailer below, Angry Birds will be with us in Summer 2016.

Daredevil Season 2 Trailer

SPOILERS, as always for those who haven't watched season one.  So everyone's favorite Blind(ish) Superhero is back in a new trailer. Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) is feeling guilty, maybe for the death of Ben Urich (Vondie Curtis-Hall) last season, maybe for something completely different. Father Lantom (Peter McRobbie) tells Matt that guilt can be a good, although Karen (Deborah Ann Woll) and Foggy (Elden Henson) also look plenty guilty in this teaser trailer. We then see a bunch of clips including Claire Temple (Rosario Dawson) in her nurse scrubs, and Elektra (Elodie Yung) getting her mask on, all while hearing a voice over from Father Lantom who indicates that it may be because Matt's work as Daredevil is not yet finished. We then see Karen Page holding a Punisher skull on a x-ray and looking pretty freaked out by it. Then comes what I am most looking forward to, Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) is here, in a hospital (watch out Claire) and looking pretty bad ass if I do...

Mental Illness in TV and Film - Frozen

I did say last week that I was taken time off to grieve but after watching Frozen at the weekend I couldn't help but look at it from a Mental Illness perspective. I took this as a sign that I was ready to continue writing this series. Is Elsa a metaphor for Anxiety? The disorder that keeps me up at night seems to be prevalent in this film, even Grand Pabbie says it to a young Elsa at the start of the film, "Fear will be your enemy," and we see Elsa lash out at her coronation celebration. The fear she has inside her makes Elsa's powers go haywire, she fears her secret will be revealed to others around her, just as I feel people will find out I have anxiety just by being around me. But fear is not the solution, it ends up hurting the people Elsa loves the most, as she lashes out and pushes them away. She becomes so scared of hurting others that she ends up hurting them. Then when her powers get out of control she runs away and hides inside her own Ice Palac...
