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.

We then see parts of the teaser which was released at the start of the week, this little fifty second sneak peak was actually better than this full trailer. Superman is doing his thing, and he goes into the senate as Luthor Jr speaks to Senator Finch. Alfred (Jeremy Irons) appears on screen, and in true Alfred fashion he is trying to talk Batman down from fighting when he can't win, calling it suicide as we see some clips of Bruce and a child and Gotham being destroyed.

We then see clips of Batman V Superman as Lex Luthor Jr calls it the greatest Gladiator match in the history of the world. Lois Lane (Amy Adams) calls Lex psychotic to which he calls this a three syllable word for any thought too big for little minds. Batman keeps fighting as Superman tells him to stand down. We then see Lex Luthor Jr with Zod's (Michael Shannon) body and he creates what looks like Doomsday. As Doomsday goes to fry Batman Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) shows up and saves him with her shield. There is then a little quip between Batman and Superman about who Wonder Woman is with.

Ok, why the hell didn't Wonder Woman at least get one line of dialogue? Why did they have to put in Doomsday, couldn't then just have cut it where the screen goes black and you hear him roar? Where the hell is Aquaman? Aquaman is the one part of this movie where I hear people complaining, put him in the trailer in a great action shot and shut all the doubters up. Yes it's great that Wonder Woman get's a bit of action, yes I love this character and feel like she deserves to be in something great. I want this movie to be good, I just don't feel excited for it.

I do really enjoy the Wonder Woman outfit and I really like the premise of a Batman V Superman movie. There are three of my favorite DC superheroes since childhood all in this movie. I just don't feel it. The first trailer heightened my expectations, this one just brought them down to the level they were at before. I really want this movie to be great, so I do hope I'm wrong.

So what did you think? Am I wrong? Did this trailer excite you? Are you more excited to go see it now? Comment below.

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...

I dropped the ball!

........ Image courtesy of paradigmalibu These last few months I've felt as if I have dropped the proverbial ball, my mind has been witness to a stand off between Mental health disorders and things from my past I'd rather not constantly have to relive. It's buried itself into my soul while operating my mindless drone of a body, I've relived every conversation I ever had; thought of Friends long gone as I struggle to open up about my disability. I don't even like calling it that as it feels disrespectful to people like my parents; who's struggle and sheer joy of receiving two disabled free babies has been with me my entire life. But I am not OK - I feel like I have to admit that to the world. A miscarriage has taken me back mentally to a place I've not been for a very long time, and I'm petrified t...
