Lovely stories
This book was great, it surpassed my expectations. All of the stories were well written, had good strong characters and had humor to make you smile. I would definitely recommend this set of books, and I will look forward to reading more books by this author in the future.

Well, that was ... different.
Set in a not-too-distant future amid a Western-led war between humans and AI, this very much has vibes of Blade Runner and (especially) Rogue One, especially in the final Act.
The latter, perhaps, no surprise when this and that are by the same director!

Wow
Contains spoilers, click to show
This movie wasn't given enough credit. From start to finish I was pulled in and was on the edge of my seat.
When raven died I was in shock. But I'm the first X-Men movies she is alive and well in the future so this confused me and also what happened to jean at the end. Obviously, she was taken over by the Phoenix force and became a powerful cosmic being. Another thing was that Charles no longer is the head teacher of the Academy and again, in the future, still is. But I'm not complaining cause it was amazing anyway.
I will probably go to see it again soon because once won't be enough for me.

Mayhawke (97 KP) rated Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World in Books

A Fantastically Great Book :)
A brilliant introduction to some of the most influential women history has systematically over looked. This should be 'must have ' book for all bookcases, girls & boys, though I fear it won't appear on too many boys' shelves. Which is a shame because putting aside the fact that all the people written about are female the achievements listed are important historically in their own right.
It would also make the lives future young women a lot easier if the future young men they will be sharing the world with understood that girls are equally thinkers and do-ers in the same, organic, daily way that girls learn that boys are.

David McK (3251 KP) rated Back to the Future Part II (1989) in Movies
Dec 5, 2020
Great Scott!
Mid part of the Back to the Future trilogy, in which Marty McFly experiences and travels to three distinct era's: the far-flung future of 2015(!)(I'm writing this in December 2020 - I want my hoverboard, dammit!), an alternate dystopian (from his and Boc Browns point of view) 1985 and finally back to 1955 as the point of divergence to (re)witness the events of the first movie.
With a cliffhanger ending, this film should really be considered the first part of a longer movie: indeed, I believe that was the original intention before the studios balked at the sheer running length of merging the events of Part II and the (Western) Part III into one!
