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...

Lion Rampant

So for those of you who haven't heard about this project it was leaked during the Sony hack. This as a potential sequel to Braveheart called Lion Rampant, after the flag I have shown above. Really it should be called Braveheart as Robert the Bruce was called the Brave Heart and his heart was taken into battle after his death. Depicting Robert the Bruce's story and the Battle of Bannockburn (24th June 1314) in Scotlands first war for independance where King Edward II was beaten in battle by a small force lead by Robert the Bruce. Robert the Bruce in Braveheart was shown as a traitor and I am hoping that this upcoming movie would mean that he will hopefully get the makeover he so rightly deserves. Although he did pay homage to Edward I, The Bruce really secretly supported Wallace (later publicly supporting him) and he did not betray Wallace, that was Sir John Menteith. This could easily turn into a what's wrong with Braveheart post so I will state that they did get the...

Mental Illness in Tv and Film - Jessica Jones

Before I go off and talk about Jessica Jones I thought it was important to talk about my own horrible week, but right now I can't seem to get the words to talk about it, and close family has just found out. I hope to talk about it with you when I feel a bit more able to talk about it, so right now you'll just have to settle for the fact that I had a horrible week. Much like Jessica Jones it's easy to try and reach for the bottle to dull my emotions, but unlike her I know exactly where that leads, and it's no help to anyone. Jessica has PTSD from abuse she received at the hands of the Purple Man before the show begins, and right now that is all I can relate too. She receives flashbacks to her past abuse during the first season, these cause her to have a panic attack, and she recites the phrase, "Birch Street, Higgins Drive, Cobalt lane," as a coping technique used to ground her back in reality. This I can fully relate too, I use objects to bring me int...
