X files Promo!



Watching the promo my reaction was WHAT? For those of you who haven't seen it SPOILERS ARE COMING!

So we open with Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) as she receives a phone call from Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) to say he's here (did he have to phone, I mean she was right there). Then we're treated to mysterious clips, a plane with a freaky colour change, and cameras are everywhere. It seems as though the government is spying on everyone, they never learn do they?

Then we see the return of Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) who tells Mulder to do something about the danger he's found himself in. Is it just me or does it look like the FBI have put Skinner in the basement? If this is the case it may mean he is now head of the X-files, I know most of you are going to say they were destroyed but come on, they have been shut down before.

Also it seem that in true X-files fashion it seems Mulder is looking for the conspiracy and Scully is looking at things rationally. I enjoy this dynamic as they balance each other out, I know others don't and think Scully has seen too much to stay rational but her entire reason for being there is to bring the science to the conspiracy.

We then see a clip of what could be the big bad of the season, a bunch of soldiers and a man in a bowler hat out in some site. Although I think this could possibly be a flashback, maybe to area 51 or some other alien crash landing site. Then the reveal that made me gasp, The Smoking Man (William B. Davis) is back from the grave. 

Didn't he get blown up a while back? Wasn't he in a wheelchair with a oxygen tank when this happened? How could he survive? Even if he did survive wasn't he dying of cancer anyway? Oh maybe he's a clone!

I have so many questions, but I guess I'll just have to wait until January to find out. Check out the trailer below.

*****Amendment - I actually only seen the second part of the trailer this morning, when I searched in youtube I was given the trailer below. Looks like Skinner was in the basement but only because Mulder was there, he wasn't sent there by the FBI, damn I feel stupid!*****

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 affecte...

My week off!

             [Quickmeme] Hello everybody. I took an inpromptu week off this week. Was only meant to be for Thanksgiving weekend but on Sunday I started to get a bad flu. Still not quite right at the moment. Chicken noodle soup would be great at the moment.                                   [USA Network] So what have I been watching on my week off? Besides the shows I usually write for this week I started watching Mr. robot, and I have to say it is pretty great. Think Fight Club meets The Social Network, very much shot like a David Fincher movie. It's gritty and had me hooked pretty quickly. Definitely a must see for those who haven't watched it already. [Paramount Pictures] So I decided it was time to watch some Christmas Movies and I popped this on. I thought it would be great and I'd be instantly transported back to my childhood. It wa...
