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 probably bumping into Hercules down there.

Agents of Shield - Well I knew that was going to happen this season, but I didn't expect it to come back. I mostly liked this episode, much better than the other episode on the planet. Looking forward to the rest of the season and to the secret warriors.

Star Wars Episode 1 - Too much politics which is important I suppose. I like the kid that plays Anakin. Has a bad ass villian in Darth Maul, I'm quite annoyed about what happened to him. The fight scene at the end in the what I think is a droids factory was pretty good but meh.

Star Wars Episode 2 - So I don't like this movie that much. This is where it went 100% south for me. OK the Padme/Anakin love story freaks me out, he was a little boy in the last movie and she was playing what to me looked like a teenager. Not that women can't date younger, go ahead. It just bothered me as he was so young in the last movie. Don't get me started on the chemistry either. I suppose we see a young Boba Fett and his Dad which I sorta enjoyed even if he was pouty.

I was also going to give a Christmas Breakdown but I shall wait to I feel less sickly. Nausea is a bitch!

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...
