Jessica Jones


So I have been excited for Jessica Jones since I looked her up when Netflix announced this TV series. So for those of you who don't know who this character is, Jessica Campbell is her birth name, she went to school and had a bit of a crush on Peter Parker. While with her family on there way back from Disneyland their car collided with a military convoy carrying, you guessed it, radioactive materials.

Her family died, she woke from a coma several months later with super strength, a limited invulnerability and the ability to fly. She was then placed in an orphanage and later adopted by the Jones family.

Witnessing Spiderman take on Sandman made her want to use her powers for good and Jewel was born. Although her superhero career was pretty uneventful ending in her being mind controlled by The Purple Man. The show picks up with her opening her detective agency where due to her background most of her clients are superheroes.

I'm looking forward to this hero for hire situation and her abilities are really powerful so it would be nice to see her take on an avenger or popping up in Daredevil and vice versa. The trailer looks like opening credits and is pretty psychedelic as well as being pretty purple which would tie in with the abuse she suffered from the Purple Man. Check it out below and Jessica Jones will be available on Netflix from the 20th of November. BINGE WATCH!

Game of Thrones - The Hall of Faces Trailer and Theories!

I've been watching out for this trailer for the past week and was pretty excited to see some footage from the new season. Instead we got to see the faces of characters, some of whom are long lost, and others who have yet to leave us. SPOILER WARNING for those who haven't caught up with season five. The trailer takes place in the Hall of Faces, which is inside the House of Black and White in Braavos. The hall looks great, creepy but great. We can hear some whispers which are too quiet for me to make out. Then Ned's (Sean Bean) face appears on screen, we then hear him say a line from the show's first ever episode called Winter is Coming.    "The Man who passes the sentence should swing the sword." The screen then fades to black and we then see a clip of some more rows of heads. We then hear even more whispers and which I think sounds like some drops of waters. We then hear the voice of Robb Stark (Richard Madden) who we hear give a quote from seaso

Mental Illness in TV and Film - Dementors

                                                                                                      Image Source Dementors have haunted me ever since I read The Prisoner of Azkaban way back in 1999. I was a Pre-Teen who was pretty much unaware of the depression that was just around the corner, in a way this book prepared me for what was to come, and after multiple reads, it became my go-to reference when explaining my depression. First off let's give a brief outline of Dementors, these magical wraith-like creatures can generally be found guarding Azkaban Prison, sucking the happiness, hope, and peace out of everyone around them. If you have had a horrible life marked by loss and abuse (just like Harry) you are much more affected by them than someone who has not, as they also cause depression and despair in there victims. They can sense and taste fear, but thankfully they can't seem to tell people of the same build from each other, and they are able to communicate wit

Mockingjay Part 2 Teaser

So in a similar vein to Sony releasing a Bond teaser to get our juices flowing for release, Lionsgate release their own Mockingjay Part Two clip. SPOILERS AND THEORIES ARE COMING! I haven't read the books but I have a few theories after watching this clip. I may be 100% wrong though, no guarantees. So in the trailer our Mockingjay Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence), is greeted by our newlywed Finnick (Sam Claflin). She comments at how short his honeymoon was and he replies stating that he'll,"be having one in the capital, after they take it." Well if this doesn't scream I'm going to die in this fight then I do not know what does. We are then greeted by Boggs (Mahershala Ali), he is commanding the non combat unit, they will be days behind the first unit and that Lt Jackson (Michelle Forbes) is his second in command. Cressida (Natalie Dorma) tells us the team are going to be the Star Squad and that Katniss is at her most effective when she is seen by the masses.
