Another good novella
Contains spoilers, click to show
This is the second novella in the fairytales of myth series and I was as hooked on this one as I was the first it really doesn't seem to go on long enough.The raw pain and anguish Thalliya feels watching her family murdered is horrendous i feel it with her, I also get why she freezes that heartache is certainly one that takes your breath away!The relationship between Ragnar and Thalliya and how it grows and flourishes is very steamy but also needed by both of them. Its sad to know it doesn't last.I enjoyed the fast pace of the tale and that it doesn't hang around there is adventure from the start deffinatly a fantastic read4/5 absolutly cannot wait for the next installment

I've been a big fan of Mortal kombat ever since playing the games . The previous films never really did the games much justice but I feel this one has gotten the closet . Hiroyuki Sanada was perfect as scorpion and so was Joe taslim as sub zero. Kano pretty much stole every scene he was in and was a good comic character . The new character of Cole Young was ok but seemed a bit weak in development with his character . The dialog was cheesy in places but then hey. Thos is Mortal Kombat ... who cares about dialog .... the fight scenes and fatalities were spot on . I hope they do more like this

This was FUN! Not 5-star fun, but still fun nonetheless! Christopher Hastings clearly had a good time writing this cute li;l gem! And while I could go on and on how Hastings' handling of all the G0tG member 9which was A+ for sure!), I feel the need to shower Flaviano Armentaro with a more than hearty helping of paise for his adorable art (rendered in an "old skool" Disney-esque style)! Everything about this series says perfect for a lazy afternoon with some Stash Asian pear green tea and a dog in your lap!
Oh, and I challenge you to NOT hear the late David Bowie's voice when you read the Adminstrator's dialogue!
Now, scoot, go and read it, summer is nearly here, and AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR is already at the movies!

Thank you! I'm so glad Courtney decided to write a novella from Olivia's point of view. Perhaps I'm the only one who hadn't figured it out, but for the life of me, I couldn't understand the connection between Dare and the Savage family. I mean, I knew Richard was his stepfather, but I didn't know how they all came to be together. It was nice to finally get that all straightened out, even if I do feel just as confused and crazy as I do when reading Nocte and Verum. One thing I am happy about: It's good to know that Olivia kind of went crazy on her own and not that Dare drove her crazy because he killed Richard when she was in the bed next to him.

Surprisingly Thrilling
I went into this film knowing absolutely nothing about it and I think that was the best way to go. I was very interested from the jump and needed to know what happened and who the heck he was and what was happening. I loved Diane Kruger, she definitely is one of my favorite actresses, and while Liam Neeson definitely has his niche that works for him, he is very good at it. There's a reason it's his niche. This film is no different.
I thought the pacing was really nicely done and I don't feel like anything was unnecessary. Every part of every scene made sense and the further you got into the film, the more the pieces started to fit together. I really liked this one.

Decent crime thriller
One of the films I missed as it didn't get a long release at the cinema in the UK. Naomie Harris plays a rookie cop in a rundown area of New Orleans. With corrupt cops and gangs working together in the supply of drugs. Soon she is hunted by both through the neighborhood after capturing a murder by the corrupt cops on her bodycam.
Overall it was an enjoyable watch, a little slow at the start and middle section. It had quite a low budget feel to it despite some big cast names. Worth a watch but far from the better films with a similar plotline. @21 Bridges (2019) is one example that had more action.

Toy Story 4 was good, I enjoyed it, but didn't really seem necessary(other than to make money and can't fault them for that, it is business). Toy Story 3 was a proper ending in my opinion and if my heart had a pull string it ripped it hard, but for me Toy Story 4 just didn't capture the emotion like the last three did, nor did it really feel like a kids movie. Some of the scenes in the antique store are legitimately creepy and startling. Now that I think about it though, those scenes in the original with Sid were pretty dang creepy too. Any adult who enjoys the Toy Story franchise will enjoy this one I think, but I'm not sure how it'll be received by kids.

It works as an invitation, to both understand and let go of the need for understanding. We leave our bodies be the moment, our feelings to be the logic. We move in perfect consciousness. But perhaps we are not all of us looking at the sky.
“You will see people
Who don’t even think of
The way their bodies shape themselves”
— Slow Skies
Karen Sheridan, known in Dublin and increasingly around the world as Slow Skies, invites us all to take a minute and breathe. With her single Dancing, in a voice that for a moment reimagines Nora Jones, Sheridan asks the listener to 'to think about whatever it is that makes them feel good'. We like the lazy guitar strumming, the ice-cream-soft voice, and the variated Hey Mickey drum beat.
