Rooting tooting good time
I avoided this show at first, as there was no way it could live up to the original film. But after hearing good things I gave it a shot and was not disappointed. This is how you make a interesting world. Can't wait for season 2. Have a podcast over on the blog if you're after more details.

Favourite game!
I love playing Minecraft I have a survival world with lots of things built and a creative world where I usually build stuff before I build on my survival world so I know how it will look before I waste time gathering the resources. There are so many YouTube videos that can help with ideas and give you amazing tips!

This book was AMAZING! [Ken Williams] tells the inside story of working with the homeless in the backyard of the rich and famous. In [Fractured Angel] he draws on his own experiences to create a fictionalized account of a social worker, a mother, and a fifteen year old runaway all trying to cope with their demons. [Williams] has a way with storytelling and the empathy he shows for all his characters shows through in his words.

This was amazing! I love the art work and the story line was beautifully done.


Alana and Marko are soldiers from 2 different worlds,on opposite sides of a war. When an unexpected love brews, these two risk everything to stay together and bring their daughter into the chaotic world.
Written in the point of view of the daughter, this takes you on Alana and Markos Journey.

Cant wait to continue on with the next one.

Well this is one book that I'm glad I gave in to the hype on & bought. It was amazing!! It hooks you in from the start & never lets you go. I just finished it & now I'm just mad that the next book isn't out. I CANNOT WAIT TO READ IT! The end definitely leaves you hanging. Just when you think you start to get it, it's over & you have no idea what will happen next. Wonderful, wonderful book!

Huge battle scenes at Helm's Deep
Great action scenes
Epic story
Brilliant Sfx
Cinema at its best
My favourite of the Lord of the Rings films. I prefer the battle scenes in this one. The Gandalf vs the Balrog is a scene you won't forget. Everything about the film is top quality, production, sets, costumes, Sfx, the score. Combine that with a great all star cast and an epic story make this an amazing film.

Quiet, subdued at times, with an explosive ending
This crime series is extremely slow, at times there is no dialogue whatsoever and the viewer is left watching the wondrous landscape of New Zealand. While the quietness is mesmerising at times, it does feel like it takes too long for anything to happen. The ending happens quickly with a lot of unresolved issues. Interesting but not amazing.

One of the best twists ever!
Simply brilliant
Amazing film on quite a low budget but with some brilliant scenes. The acting is top notch which helps make the film so simple yet effective. Told in retrospect as a survivor tells the story that led to a big shoot out. This film has one of the most famous twists in cinema. If you have missed it put it to the top of your list!

Where to start.
This book grabbed me from the first chapter. every chapter left you hanging (sign of a good author!) and brought a new question or a new mystery. although not all of the questions were answered in the first book of this exciting new trilogy, most of them were--but they were all answered in amazing, unforgettable, unexpected ways. drop your classic ideas about "demonic" novels--this book belongs on any fiction-loving adventurous reader's bookshelf!

One of the Best Star Wars Movies
Repeat viewings of the The Empire Strikes Back are a must. These movies are some of my favorite of all time. This movie in particular is so jam-packed with amazing acting, cinematography and action that there is nothing not to love. I will always be a fan of this film.
