Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated They Shall Not Grow Old (2018) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
This new documentary which has been in cinemas and last night was shown on the centenary of the end of the war, takes never-before-seen footage from World War I and brings it to the screen in an emotional way to commemorate the centennial of the end of the war.
They Shall Not Grow Old starts with the old footage from the 1910’s in a small screen format that slowly gets bigger on the screen, the footage is raw, untouched, and shows a time that has long since passed. What makes this documentary so distinctive is that the commentary, throughout the film, is from the veterans from World War I, taken from the many archives to give us an emotional connection to those that survived the horrors of the war.

Breaking Into Sci-Fi
Looking to break into the sci-fi genre? To be fully immersed in a time and place both familiar and strange? Dune takes social political structures from our world and creates worlds, families, feuds, and builds such a complex universe that the end of the book comes much too soon!
Rolling Stone's 462nd greatest album of all time
Brilliant album that I haven't listened to in years. So many massive songs on here, from the well-known The One I Love and The End of the World... to the superb Finest Worksong and Exhuming McCarthy (which lets face it is a demo version of Stand). There are no poor songs on this album.

Apart from the fact I get a little dizzy when I move too much while playing this on VR, I really like this platform game. You have to work your way through the levels of the worlds freeing and collecting your little robot buddies who are in peril and then beat the boss at the end of each world.

3.5 stars.
I liked this and it going back into the world of Wingman Inc--I still remember and love Ian--but I didn't end up enjoying it as much as the previous books.
I can't help wondering if Leo, Slater and Finn will end up with their own books. I'd love to see them fall for a special someone.

I quite enjoyed the first Weather Warden book ("Ill Wind").
The second ("Heat Stroke") was even better
Unfortunately, the third, and then the fourth ("Chill Factor" and "Windfall", respectively) were a bit of a let-down.
Thankfully, this is a return to form: picking up almost exactly from the end of "Windfall", this is faster-moving than it's predecessor, more engaging and more action-packed.
R.E.M. sang it best: "It's the end of the world as we know it ..." (even if, for some inscrutable reason, that track is missing from the authors' own suggestion of what to listen to while reading)
