Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
2017 | Action, Adventure, Fantasy
Thor: Rargnarok took the best parts of a couple different Marvel Comics storylines, fused them together into an 80's buddy action comedy movie.

If you apperciated the tone of GotG, like Thor but not his movies you'll love this. Of the 17 films in the franchise this one is in the top half.

I am glad Hulk's Warbond, though not called as such in the film, survived. Hope to see more of Kord and Miek, maybe even a spin off of there own.

What do a city wide talent show and a closed off swimmer hole have in common? More than you might think in this delightful middle grade caper. The plot was always moving forward, and I loved how everything came together in the end. The characters could have used a bit more development, but that's the adult in me talking. Kids will love it.

Must watch mockumentary
I've probably seen Best in Show a dozen times or more my parents used to watch it non-stop when I was younger and now that I'm older I guess I still can't get enough of it.
 
 It really is one of the best mockumentaries out there it's absolutely hilarious the plot is simple but amazing the cast is perfect each character is just so outrageous on their own that when you put them together it really just is Best in Show.

I loved this book! Again, this is usually not my type of genre that I read, but I was so intrigued by the plot that I had to read it!!

It is definitely an amazing read. It had me so confused throughout the book trying to piece everything together.

Definitely a well written book. There's even another twist thrown in at the very end!! This is definitely one of my top books!!

I will be reading more books by Linwood Barclay in the future.

Fornite Shenanigans
I love watching my boyfriend play this game. Sadly we are on different systems so we can't play together. My son refuses to play fortnite with anyone. So I have only played it a few times. I can't get far enough into a game to figure out how to do anything. I want to play though. So for now I just settle for watching other people play with the hopes that someday I will be able to as well.
  
Pina and Katie's adventures continue as does their quest to be together. The new characters in this book add so much more to the story that made it even more amazing. Of course I was picturing Hogwarts when I thought setting but I am a nerd. Maggiore does not just create a well paced suspense with numerous twists and turns but also captures the difficulties of being gay in that time. There is so much packed into this story I couldn't put it down. More please!

Disclaimer: I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.

Just whatever happened to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? They died in Bolivia, right? Are you sure that's what happened?

This novel gives us the story of Butch and Sundance: how they met, what happened during their time together, and, more importantly, the story of Bolivia. If you're like me and think they couldn't possibly have gone out like that, then this is a book you definitely need to read. =)

I've seen this film twice and it's one of those that has stuck with me.

It's not really a cast I would put together; having Sandra Bullock and Kiefer Sutherland as a couple just doesn't sit right with me, but it works in the overall setting of the film. Jeff Bridges is very good in the role of the manipulative murderer, and there is a lot of suspense throughout the film.

Very enjoyable if you like something to keep you on the edge of your seat.
