Mothergamer (1604 KP) rated Fruits Basket in TV
Jul 12, 2021
I loved the manga and the original anime when it came out. The characters and story are great. Tohru herself is very sweet and you can't help but be drawn to her and her kindness. The remake of Fruits Basket is excellent. They did a fantastic job keeping the spirit of the original story and the emotional vibe of the main story and interactions with the characters. It was great to watch through it again and remember what made this series so special.

A fun frolic with the Gods of our time
Not my favourite Gaiman book but still a fantastic read. I love how he brings the idea of God's to life and explores the worshipping we partake in in todays consumer driven society.
As always the worlds he creates come alive in often painful detail. The characters are twisted and relatable and the darkness is punctured with laugh out loud humour.
Quick, easy and enjoyable trek through modern mythology.

Made for everyone with a nod to gamers and the old arcade scene this was surprisingly good.
The story was very fresh and fun and the voice casting spot on and with great heart.
It's a shame it lost out to Brave as best animated feature, it can be a little sugary at times but it won over this reviewer with its nostalgic nods to games past and present and got to the screen just before ready player one, fantastic!

Overall, this was a great read. Some parts were completely terrible while others were absolutely fantastic. I would only reread parts of this novel as certain stories are better than the others but all in all, it’s a 4 star read.

Point of View: Multiple of different characters
Audience/ Reading Level: 14+ as there are some serious scenes that are a bit more mature.

Dance, magic, dance
Its one of those movies that you love as a child and when you come back to it as an adult you realise how messed up it is haha. I love singing along to the songs, but the orange hairy puppets still freak me out. David Bowie is fantastic as the goblin king if you order all the child marriage/kidnap and turn baby into a goblin thing. Overall, fun movie and a timeless classic.

One of the greats.
I've been in love with Greys Anatomy for years, seen all of the series, and have watched some fav episodes over and over. Shonda Rhimes is an extremely talented writer. This series is definetly one you'll want to commit too.
Following the life of Meredith Grey, her friendships, loves, becoming surgeon, it'll have you on so many highs and lows you'll become glued.

Bob (1 more)
Continuation of The One and Only Ivan
The One and Only Bob follows Bob, the dog who is friends with the gorilla Ivan from The One and Only Ivan. While it is must read if you loved Ivan, I found this one falling a little short of Ivan. That being said, the writing style is fantastic with an easy flow that will keep you turning pages. Just like Ivan, Bob teaches valuable life lessons that are good for anyone, at any age.

Rolling Stone's 189th greatest album of all time
Decent psychedelic rock. The first track is a 25-minute rendition of Bo Diddley's Who Do You Love, split into parts so that each band member gets a solo. This is fantastic at times, pretty self-centred and cringeworthy at others. There is then a cover of another Bo Diddley song, Mona (made famous by Craig McLachlan of Neighbours fame). A good listen, but maybe be ready to skip ahead 30 seconds now and then.
Mothergamer (1604 KP) rated The Umbrella Academy in TV

Right from the start this series grabs your attention with an interesting premise and well thought out characters. I never knew what to expect because the story always kept me guessing and the reveals in each plot point were great. The entire cast is fantastic and I kept watching because I wanted to see what happened next. The music soundtrack for the show is great too and fits really well with the vibe of the scenes that have music. I really enjoyed it.
