X Men: First Class
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 [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]

It’s a big year for comic book geeks. Marvel are gearing up for the big finale with the release of Thor and Captain America ready for The Avengers in 2012. Meanwhile, DC have got to find a way to follow up on The Dark Knight and convince me that Ryan Reynolds can get away with [...]

Did anyone see where 2010 went? I appear to have missed it. This is the second new year’s post I’ve written, which must mean my blog has somehow made it to two years old. Wow, wasn’t expecting that. At the start of this year I was anxiously waiting on an interview to find out what [...]

It’s no secret on this blog that I am a Marvel comic book geek. So I’m excited at the new pathway into the Marvel Universe that the Iron Man films have opened up. When you combine that with the X Men films that are lining up behind Wolverine you’ve got a pretty full calendar over [...]

Catching the final showdown of a soon to be named action movie on TV a little while ago got me thinking about the best fight choreography to hit the big screen. The following debate with my sister made me realise that a blog post was in order, so here are my favourite movie punch ups. [...]

Here’s some random Wolverine trivia I’ve picked up from various sources…. The part of Wolverine was originally offerd to Joaquin Phoenix but he turned it down. Thank God! As much as I love Phoenix (before he became an *ahem* rap artist) that would never have worked. Three Mile Island, the site of Stryker’s base in [...]

Well, it was worth the wait. Wolverine was definitely one of the best films I’ve seen in a while. The fight sequences are awesome (particularly when you’re sitting in the front row of a big screen) and everything moves at just the right pace. The opening credit sequence was particularly good, reminiscent of Watchmen in [...]

WOO! It’s taken way too long. And I don’t care about people badmouthing it all over the internet, I’m still excited. Also my first time in the Vue instead of the Odeon Leicester Square. Review up ASAP. I still reckon its gonna be better than Star Trek which, incidently, I’ll probably be seeing next week…
