Entry number 5 in The Terminator series: a series that is largely viewed as having gone drastically downhill after the first two superlative instalments, and that is undoubtedly Arnold Schwarzenegger most famous role.

The biggest problem with this one, simply, is that it gave away too much in the trailers prior to it's release: yes, Arnie returns (as a 'good' Terminator who states that he is 'old, not obsolete'), Sarah Connor is recast, time travel again is a key concept, and other characters are found to have changed sides.

Oh, and an (ex)The Doctor (Who) has a starring role - well, I suppose he should be used to timey-wimey shenanigans!

Wonderful, funny, honest
I have always liked Bernard Cribbins since i saw him in the early carry on films Jack and Spying. He is one of those people that whatever he turns his hand to, he is excellent at. from doing the Carry on Films to singing and dancing (even producing a top ten single). This is a wonderful read and definitely a book i found hard to put down. Its written very well and is laid out in almost chronological order, with some amazing photos too. I just loved it and i would recommend this to anyone. Great read :)

Prince, soon-to-be-King, T'Challa's first solo outing, after the events of Captain America: Civil War, in which he returns home to be crowned King of Wakanda and soon finds himself challenged by the sins of his (father's) past.

Very much a movie of two halves (both literally and figuratively), I found the first half to be a wee bit on the slow side, before events - and the pace -picks up in the second.

I'm not enamoured, however, of the now-overused CGI throw-down between T'Challa and Eric Killmonger (who does have a legitimate grievance) in the final third of the movie.
