I don’t actually want to write this review…..

Posted on November 14, 2011. Filed under: Reviews | Tags: , , , , , |

Those of you unfortunate enough to read this blog on a  regular basis will know that I have been a failure of a so-called Marvel geek and taken far too long to see Thor. I finally got around to it last night.  I hadn’t originally planned to write a review seeing as most of you [...]

A fleeting visit for something awesome

Posted on October 12, 2011. Filed under: News, Trailers | Tags: , , , , , , , |

I know, I know. I promised you posts and then disappeared. My excuse is the sheer volume of year 2 preclinical medicine. But I couldn’t not blog this. No intro necessary. You know why I’m excited.   When (/if) I make it out from under this mountain of anatomy reading, I actually do have drafts [...]

Don’t die of shock…I’m about to say something good about 3D….

Posted on September 3, 2011. Filed under: Ramblings | Tags: , , |

Recovered yet? OK I’ll carry on.  Technically it’s not 3D I’m saying good things about, it’s 4D. We all know that I’m not a fan of 3D.  Of the few films I’ve seen that used the tech, only one (Avatar) managed to have a couple of  moments where it added rather than detracted, and I [...]

Captain America (3D)

Posted on August 3, 2011. Filed under: Reviews | Tags: , , , , , , , |

The First Avenger is here (even though he came after Iron Man. And Thor. And no I still haven’t seen it) I wrote a week or so ago about a few concerns I had about the movie and since then I’ve read some fellow bloggers lukewarm reviews which had somewhat lowered my expectations, and I’m [...]

Why I’m worried about Captain America

Posted on July 18, 2011. Filed under: Ramblings, Trailers | Tags: , , , |

On the 29th July, Captain America: The First Avenger hits cinemas. This is the sort of thing that should send superhero junkies like me into a frenzy of excitement.  But instead, I’m just a little bit nervous about how the film is going to go down. My main concern about Cap can be summed up [...]

X Men: First Class

Posted on June 14, 2011. Filed under: Movies to see before you die, Reviews | Tags: , , , , , |

Cinemas. I remember them. They were those things I used to go to all the time before I started my medical degree. When I first heard about X Men: First Class I dismissed it as Saved By The Bell with mutants.  But when they decided to combine it with the back stories of Xavier and [...]

A Life in Movies

Posted on May 8, 2011. Filed under: Memes and Blogathons, Ramblings | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , |

The ever-creative Andy has come up with another fantastic blog-a-thon idea and I’m determined to get in on the fun. The idea is to pick a favourite movie for ever year you’ve been alive. (I think it’s his sneaky way of finding out how old we all are.) Notoriously indecisive as I am, this is [...]

It’s about time for another trailer…

Posted on February 11, 2011. Filed under: News, Trailers | Tags: , , , |

I know this blog has got pretty Marvel heavy recently but I couldn’t let this one go by without a post.  I’ve already caught it on three different blogs this morning so I’d be letting the side down if I didn’t post it too! X Men: First Class. I had reservations. Then they cast McAvoy.  [...]

Marvel vs DC: The story so far…

Posted on January 23, 2011. Filed under: Memes and Blogathons, Ramblings | Tags: , , , |

On January 3rd I opened a can of worms in an attempt to find out who the internet loved more; Marvel or DC. So far it’s hard to tell.  There’s a lot of love for Marvel out there, but Batman is messing up the argument for a lot of people.  Here’s a (continually updating) run [...]
