WALL-E (2008)
2008 | Animation, Comedy, Sci-Fi
A brilliant film in so many ways!! It is so simple with barely any dialogue, but it doesn't need it you can tell what is going on by the actions and expressions can say more than a thousands words with a film like this. It's cute, funny and smart and carries a message about the environment. Technically the level of detail in the animation is amazing and set new standards for all animations. There are slight influences from Short circuit in the design of Wall-e and 2001: A Space Odyssey as well later in the film. Do not miss this film!!

Amanda Harvey Purse what can I say amazing I loved this book and I'm not just saying that. 

 The story line jumps between the years 1888 and 1889 the place London your hosts for this intriguing murder mystery are Mary Kelly the fifth Jack the Ripper victim and Thomas Dunn a writer and I'm not telling you any more because you really should read this book. There is so much I could tell but won't all you need to know is that Amanda has mixed alot facts relating to the Jack the Ripper case amongst fiction to create a great story.

There something adventures. There a big surprise that
you will not expect to happen.

You learn about forgiving and you learn about how to handle grief
  
This book did not disappoint in any way. It was just amazing as the two others in this series. The Castle Lighthouse and The Fakerville Power Station were catching as the third installment.

The Font family consist of Edgar, Audrey and Garrett Font. The Fonts get a mysterious package delivered to them. They encounter a young ghost, who strongly needs their help. They must piece together clues and break the ancient spell. If they fail, they could be trapped forever. They meet up with an unexpected foe of Edgar. Can the Fonts break the spell and find the treasure? I strongly recommend it.

We get it, Karou and Akiva must suffer, but do they have to suffer *that* much? Just let them be together already (0 more)
Contains spoilers, click to show
After three books of radically different story telling with amazing, intelligent, and interesting characters, I was ready for this book to end about 100 pages before it did. By the end of the novel, I felt that the Stelian plot was stretched a little too thin, and I would've have been happy enough to see Karou and Akiva fly off to resurrect her people ... screw the Stelians.

Bow down to the King
The hype for Black Panther has been building for about a year and dear lord they did not disappoint. From start to finish you are drawn in and the movie does not let you go.

For me Michael B Jordan stole the movie for me though he was just spectacular.


The crowning achievement though was the costume designs they were all so breathtakingly gorgeous and you could tell that they were someone who understood the culture, they just seamlessly mixed traditional and futuristic and I AM IN LOVE!

Great feel for the board game, true to it.
no longer works on my iPad or my iPhone, needs to be updated. (0 more)
This is a great app, or atleast it used to be... (Recently updated.... Yay!)
my wife and I played this so frequently on our pads, it was a serious bummer to have it not updated with he iOS updates. We have the physical version and we still play it from time to time, but it's always frustrating to pay for something and then have it no longer work. (update, it works again)

Tiffany Reisz Jeg elsker dig.

This was amazing, It made me laugh and cry. I wanted to devour it and savour it.

All of these books and the short stories are written so beautifully and you can't help but fall in love with the characters.

Some of the one liners in this book had me laughing out loud.

'Can I lose my watch in you?'

So typical of Kinsley, poor young Nora had know idea what it meant at first and it never fails to make me laugh.

Only problem now is having to wait for the next one.

Terrific content from a committed and fun host
I have been a follower of all things from the Angry Ginger for a long time. Since his days with TLPS, I have been listening to him spew his brand of comedy. Though the co-host will change from time to time, Jason The Angry Ginger remains the same.

Add to all of this, the fact that each fall the perform insane marathon-length podcasting and you have something truly amazing.

Better Than Okay
This book was an aesthetic in itself. A painting. Sad, simple and so, so beautiful. I loved it a lot. Its complexity was simplified, made easier to understand. You fall in love with the characters, and you can't fall out of love with them again. Marin and Mabel's relationship was so gorgeous- and very elegantly, very casually done. I think this book was beautiful, and so damn elegant. Marin's recovery isn't obvious, and it isn't a huge recovery, but it's certainly amazing. All in all, this book was great, sweet, simple, and oh-so-gorgeous.
