David McK (3562 KP) rated Loki - Season 1 in TV
Jul 25, 2021
The most recent (at the time of writing) of Marvels post-Endgame TV series (after both WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) and, once again, this is a very different beast than any of those two previous.
In this one, Tom Hiddleston portrays Loki, as he was just after stealing the Tesseract during the time travel heist of Avengers: Endgame ie before this version of him had lived through those events that occurred after Avengers Assemble (eg Thor: Dark World, Ragnorak, Infinity War etc etc) and is almost immediately arrested by the Time Variance Authority (the TVA), an organisation whose sole purpose is to police the 'sacred timeline'.
Over the course of the series, things prove not always to be as they seem, with this series also (or so I've heard) leading directly into Marvels phase 4 of the MCU.

Dean (6927 KP) rated The Sweeney (2012) in Movies
Feb 10, 2018
An ok English crime action film based on the old TV series. It looked very good from the trailer, but unfortunately that is quite misleading in the terms of the film as a whole. There are some good chase scenes and action set pieces, although not quite up to Heat (Which one scene is very similar to) but it does have the iconic London landmarks in there. Overall not bad but a bit more action would have been great.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2357 KP) rated The Fix (Burn Notice, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
This tie in to the TV series BURN NOTICE finds former spy Michael Weston trying to track down a husband who stole his wife's fortune while figuring out a way to keep a former Russian spy from killing him. The book captures the characters and tone of the show perfectly, but the plot was a bit weak.

David McK (3562 KP) rated The Mating Season (Jeeves, #9) in Books
Jan 28, 2019
Even by PG Wodehouse standards, this one is pretty complicated - so much so, that Bertie Wooster even provides a list at the end of the novel (something liek 'Sundered Hearts'/'Reunited Hearts')!
Of course, while reading it, I was also (perhaps unavoidably) comparing it to the episodes of the old TV series that were clearly based on this particular novel, making it impossible to visualise any other than Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie as Jeeves and Wooster, respectively.

Ross (3284 KP) rated Preacher: Book 1 in Books
Oct 29, 2019
Twisted, dark humour
The first volume of Preacher sees Jesse Custer quickly on the run after receiving Genesis (and his church exploding) - in fact, most of the first series of the TV adaption takes place within the first few pages, with a much-expanded look at the life of jaded reverend Custer in the small Texas town of Annville.
The story from there on is mad, twisted, dark and funny and includes so many oddball characters.

Loved it
Will admit that I did attempt to read this a long time ago and it didn't happen. I was in the wrong frame of mind, but having watched and loving the TV series, I picked the book up again! What a treat, I find the whole concept of this story line so interesting and I just can't put it down! I need another book!!! Please???
Paul Tyrrell (139 KP) rated Salem's Lot in Books
Apr 19, 2020
Maine style Dracula
2nd book from the great man based around vampires. Good story with decent characters and King already has found the ease of a seasoned writer as you are hooked very early on. As usual the book is better than the movie/TV series although that's worth a watch as it has David Soul (70's heart throb from Starsky & Hutch)as one of the leads.
