The Six Best Christmas Specials Ever!

                                              I love Christmas specials, they are little short Christmas Movies which means we can cram in much more of them at a time. They are perfect for binge watching all day long, so what should you be watching on this Christmas Eve? Well have a look at the following. 6. Brooklyn Nine-Nine My favourite Christmas Episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine has got to be the season one special titled Christmas. What does this episode not have? Jake (Andy Samberg) and Boyle (Jo Lo Trunnion) get beat up by two Santa's, Jake is in charge of Captain Holt (Andre Braugher) after the Captain received some death threats, Terry (Terry Crews) has a psych evaluation and Amy (Melissa Funeral) enlists the help of Gina (Chelsea Peretti) to make Holt a Christmas card. Definitely worth a watch and I laughed all the way through it. I have heard good things a...

Star Wars: The Force Awakens SPOILER REVIEW!

                                                                              [Lucasfilm/Disney] I would like to start this review by apologising. I have has some severe electrical problems in my living room, which is where my router is placed so I have no internet until just before Christmas, so I couldn't post the second part of my predictions for this movie yesterday. I will start this review by stating SPOILERS, SPOILER AND MORE SPOILERS will be in this thread, so if you haven't watched this movie yet then do yourself a favour and walk away from this review. . . . . . . . You done yet? . . . . .                                                   ...

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Predictions! (Part 1!)

                                                                                       [Disney/Lucasfilm] Hello guys, it's been nearly a whole week since my last post and a lot of stuffs happened. I am still feeling like I am just descending from a very high rollercoaster, which isn't great but I just have to suffer through this in order to post this special predictions post before I go and see The Force Awakens tomorrow evening. It's mostly so I can laugh at myself and how wrong I was after I see the movie, and you can all laugh at me too. I have stayed away from the internet as well as non spoiler reviews of this movie as I just want to go in with fresh eyes and no expectations so none of my speculation has been taken from anywhere else. Who is Rey?   ...

Labyrinthitis!

                              [Tristar Pictures] No this is nothing to do with David Bowie, Magic or Baby kidnapping. I have labyrinthitis which is a swelling in the labyrinth ear canal which is caused by a bacterial infection, remember that flu I had? So this post is basically to say I won't be posting until I am over it. If there was no Vertigo I'd happily be posting away. But every few minutes the Vertigo hits and I start feeling sick. So my whole point is there will be no posts until I get a handle on this nausea or it goes away. I'm hoping it'll be the first one as it can take up too six weeks to get any better. So I thought I'd take a minute and give you the posts you would have missed out this week. I will be so vague so don't worry about spoilers. Once Upon a Time - Great time in the mid-season finale. Almost cried like a baby but I didn't. Looking forward to seeing the underworld and proba...

Not really excited for Batman v Superman!

Sorry I'm just not excited for this movie. The trailer is meh, sorry guys but it is. Compare any Batman V Superman trailers to the first Civil war trailer and it just blows it out of the park. Many of you will disagree with me but I just can't get excited for this movie and I'm usually the one that sticks up for DC. So we see some banter between Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) and Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) as they exchange pleasantries. Why would Bruce Wayne be talking to a reporter, especially about matters regarding Batman and Superman. Unless he knows that Clark Kent is Superman. Yes the banter is interesting but it doesn't make sense, and then in comes Lex Luthor Jr (Jesse Eisenberg) who I'm just not 100% convinced by at this very moment. I'm not saying he is going to be bad, he's quippy which I usually like and most of the world thinks this Lex Luthor is great, but I just can't put my finger on what I don't like about this character.        ...

Game of Thrones Season 6 Teaser

So for those of you living under a rock, Game of Thrones launched it's official season six trailer last night. For those of you not caught up with Bran's chapters in the books, or with Season 5 of the show then be warned, SPOILERS ARE COMING .  The trailer starts with a look at Jon Snow (Kit Harington), don't rejoice this is a flashback to Hardhome last season. The voice of Bloodraven (Max von Sydow) or Brynden Rivers depending on which name you prefer to call him, plays over these clips.             "We watch, we listen and we remember. The past is already written, the ink is dry."                                                                          [Game of Thrones/HBO] We see Jon being stabbed by Olly (Brenock O'Connor), Ned (Sean Bean) losing his h...

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...
