Yesssss
I found this movie while searching for movies with Chris Evans that I never saw before. This film also has Kim Basinger and William H. Macy. It is about a family who gets caught up with some crooked cops and Kim Basinger s son and herself get kidnapped. She figures out how to make a call to a random number on a phone the kidnapper smashed and winds up calling Chris' characters cell phone and he is now trying to save her and her son without knowing where they are. It is very exciting right until the end and I loved it. Worth a see if you like action films.

A good low budget surprise
I stumbled across this on Sky cinema the other night. Never heard of it before but saw good reviews for it, so tried it out. It's quite a simple film in terms of plot. Some kids go looking down a cave for a missing professor. Things go from bad to worse once they are down there. If you like sci-fi films about time travel or the like you will like this quite a bit. The budget is low and the acting isn't great but the ideas in the film make up for it. Worth checking out if you are stuck with what to watch.

A Dragon Sized 10 outta 10
Remembered playing this game on my PS1 back when I was 8 years old and spending absolutely hours and hours attempting to complete these games. So when I saw that they we're being revamped i COULDN'T wait to spend even more hours playing these games. It really took me back to my childhood, the characters, the different characters and the same frustration when I can't catch those pesky egg-stealers (I mean come on, do they really need those Dragon Eggs really?).
Loved playing it, didn't really enjoy waiting 3 hours for it to download on my PS4 however, but it was so worth it in the end!

This game started of poorly when was first released. Group aventures there wasn't any match making so straight away after you done your tuturial provinces on your way to becoming a God. You were left clueless and unable to progress without adding a bunch of randomers. However past few months when I re downloaded the game I had saw a huge improvement in game play the story line is brilliant in my opinion. So much different things you can do yet still doesn't seem be enough players online for this game. It's definitely improved over past few years however still room to grow after all it is a free game so you expect so much be wrong don't you.
While on a MouseQuest at Disneyland, Adam and Lance find what they think is Walt Disney's diary. A clue in it leads them on a quest through his life with a possible big prize at the end. This book is an example of everything that can go wrong with self-publishing. There are too many data dumps, the action is slow at times, and the characters are flat and unlikable. I'm enough of a Disney geek to enjoy parts of it, but it needed a good editor before it saw the light of day.

Podcast of Talk and Rock N Roll
I have been a fan of Chris Jericho's since I first saw him on WCW back in the day. Followed him through his move to WWE and then when I stopped watching wrestling he fell off my radar.
Podcasts are amazing for catching back up with celebrities that were born to talk. And talk he does. Jericho uses his connections in the music industry and the wrestling world to bring stars of yesterday and today onto the airwaves. His interviews are amazing, thought-provoking, and real. He gets his guests involved in long-form conversations that draw out stories that they might not have told otherwise.

Kinda interesting
Honestly, I think this would have been a better psychological movie than a horror/thriller movie like they tried to make it be. I thought the premise was interesting and it was well casted. However, I didnt like that I felt like there was information that I didnt have. Maybe that comes from not watching the original. But I felt like there was a lot of stuff that was left unsaid or unexplained. Like for example, in the beginning, courtney tells the group what she saw and what it felt like, but we didnt see that with the others and their experiences were different. Why were they all different? What affected the outcome?

Confusing Gorefest
I saw the first five minutes of this on a facebook post and was intrigued by the very suddenly bloody start so I figured I'd give it a chance. Being a fan of horror, I was excited about it. The beginning feeds the promise of gore and progresses quickly, leaving you confused at each turn. Instead of really coming to a conclusion, I feel that the movie left more questions than answers. As the storyline progressed towards the end, it gave off not so subtle Donnie Darko vibes. Where the aforementioned movie gave way with answers and a satisfactory conclusion, Tag seemed to miss the mark in that category. Still would probably watch again.

Feel good Christmas movie
I loved this, new and fresh. Every Christmas I watch the same great Christmas films, National Lampoons', Christmas with the Kranks and The Santa Claus, I then watch a plethora of bad and boring Christmas films which leave me feeling under the season to be jolly. I had great expectations when I saw this new Christmas film on Netflix, Kurt Russell as santa, genius. And for once, this new Christmas film didn't disappoint, especially the wee unexpected surprise at the end. This film will now sit alongside Lampoons', Kranks and The SC as a must watch favourite Christmas film every year.
