Very, very interesting. I had never read anything like Stolen before. An actual letter to your captor, oh how strong you must be to not only write to such a person, but to recall everything that happened to you and write it with such honesty. After reading this, I really hope I never get kidnapped: Gemmy had me starting to like her kidnapper. As she slowly and unconsciously slipped into the Stockholm syndrome, I felt myself slip as well. In fact, by the end, I was rooting for Ty and actually began to like him. Once I finished reading, I couldn't believe I felt the way I did. Even now, I'm still a bit confused about how I should feel about him. Very, very good read!

The Deadwood movie was so good. It was like going back home and seeing old friends again that I haven't seen in forever and picking things up like it was just yesterday when we last saw each other. You break out your best peaches and catch up over drinks, but like all good things it must come to an end, so you sadly say your goodbyes. Deadwood, it was nice seeing you again. You looked good, much to the thanks of Janie Bryant and many others. Now that you're catching up with the times I'll be waiting by one of those magical boxes with voices in 'em, telephones I think they're called. Hope to see ya again a little farther down the line.

I have mixed feelings about this film. For one, it is a great move forward towards realistic sci-fi, and I hope more movies are made like this.
The biggest problems for me were, a) the voiceover, it reminded me too much of Interview with a Vampire, and b) Brad Pitt being the lead. I could think of other actors that could have executed the character a little better.
Like others, I felt like the ending was completely anticlimactic. The story was so strong throughout, then I feel like it was spoiled. The film was also a little too long. That being said, the VFX were pretty amazing, and I can only imagine what this film would look like in IMAX.

Anyway tomorrow I make my first visit back to the cinema in almost five months too see empire strikes back am I glad yes kinda and kinda nervous what with some parts of the country back in lockdown too say I've missed going to the cinema is the understatement of the year .
