Mark Halpern (153 KP) rated Office Space (1999) in Movies
Jan 8, 2018
Yeah if you could just come on on Saturday that would be great
A look into the life of working in a office and the daily crap that people have to put up with. From the annoying boss to misfit cubical mate. It also shows off how work goes in other dead end jobs. For those of us think we have it bad at our jobs have a look into the lives of these people and see if your anything like them.
Sarah (7800 KP) rated Pyramids: Discworld Novel 7 in Books
Aug 6, 2017
This isn't a bad book, none of the Discworld books Are, I just don't think it's quite as strong a story as many of the others I've read. Teppic is a great character, it was good to find out more about the assassins guild and I like the fact that it was set in the time of mummies and pyramids. My issue mainly is that the plot gets a little too bonkers and for my tastes there wasn't as much humour in this.
Dean (6927 KP) rated Frozen (2010) in Movies
Apr 8, 2018
A simple idea that is done really well. It compares well to other films like Open water where people find themselves in a perilous situation and have to battle to survive. Despite most of the film just set on a ski lift it is quite engrossing. Most will be thinking what would I do in that situation. The cast do well it and doesn't need any effects really, filmed on location in the cold for more realism. Well worth a watch!
Entertainment Editor (1988 KP) rated The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game in Tabletop Games
Mar 8, 2018
Josh has been bugging me all year that it’s about time that we played this game again, and since we got together this past weekend for a ‘Lad & Dad’ gaming weekend, it seemed like the ideal opportunity to get it back on the table, and in doing so we rediscovered just how great a game it is.

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Altered Seasons: Monsoonrise in Books
Apr 1, 2018
I am a nerd for cli fi. This was a very well written and researched book but it told a story not just information overload. The characters were from different backgrounds and therefore had different perspectives on the events as they happened. The fact that politics, buisness, and science all were addressed in the book shows the author understands that events like this(even though fictional, for now) effect everyone. He had a very global perspective and the consequences were a bit frightening.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this book. When I started it I was afraid that it was going to be like every fairytale about a princess. Dead mother, absent father, unwanted suitor, magic, the clearly right boy choice. But As I read I found myself enraptured by the main character and her relationship with her sisters. The story was fun and had some unique twists. I found this to be a great, light read that just made me happy.

Toni Lynn Donald (2027 KP) rated Soul (2020) in Movies
Aug 2, 2021 (Updated Aug 2, 2021)
I was really looking forward to watching this because it has some good voices in it( Jamie Fox, Tina Fey and Phylicia Rashad) but I was disappointed. I saw it when it first came out on Disney + so I really don't remember a lot about it, just that it was confusing at the end and a bit boring. I did like Jamie Fox's character and his Mother ( Phylicia Rashad) but other than that the story was too out there for me.
