Disappointed to say the least. I've not read the book but I'm a big fan of Stephen King and so many of his stories have gone on to be great films....despite what a lot seem to think? This is very average though and pretty straight forward. A good cast line up with a lot of well known faces, now if not back in '93. Apparently a lot has been left out from the book as well. One for die hard fans maybe.

I absolutely loved getting to hear Della's story. She was one of my favorite characters in the original series, so it was fun getting to see what she goes theough. I really liked this story. Not only was the storyline pretty fresh, I was also very happy with the introduction of the newer characters. Vampire back stories are always pretty fun as well. If you have read the Shadow Falls series, I definitely recommend picking this one up as well.

This is the third book in a series set in a modern world were modern technology has failed. It's winter, which has made daily survival very hard. Yet things get worse when Mark Green is accused of murder. Can the Branning family clear him? Once again, I was pulled into this world. And the mystery was actually well developed here as well.

Ryan Reynolds and Samuel l Jackson give this film a great source of entertainment the chemistry between them is brilliant proper love hate relationship wise cracks and abuse to each other makes some entertaining scenes . While the overall story is not new and has been done before by others. It's worth watching both actors play off each other and the film flows generally well at a good pace. Well worth watching on a Friday night with a few mates and beer .

I absolutely love spotify for its variety of options you can do. You can create playlists you have the option to view your friends playlists and if you get a subscription you have the option to download the playlists for offline listening. I love the variety of artists as well because I can find some of the lesser known artists on there as well. Just wish you didn't have to pay so much for the subscription in order to enjoy listening offline.

Ok, so I saw a recommendation online for a movie on Netflix called "Teeth". I looked it up and watched it. It's a dark-comedy/horror film. This one was weird. Do NOT watch it with kids as it has a lot of sexual content and some pretty gross scenes. It was made well enough. The acting was a bit, meh, but not too bad. The story had some, well, sick twists... anyway, worth a watch if you're into horror films.

Watched a really good action thriller on Amazon called "Braven" starring Jason Mamoa. Remind me a lot of some of the old action movies from the 80s and 90s. Good acting, great cinematography, well played out (and fairly believable) storyline. He plays a logger who has to fight off drug dealers who've stashed a bunch of drugs in his hunting cabin in the woods. Really well made. I highly recommend this movie if you're into action stories. REALLY worth a watch!

My primary source for Audio
I love this service. I honestly can't attest to the free services other that it is somewhat similar to Pandora. If you can afford the $10 scratch per month, then get this service. It is worth every cent.

Another incredible animation
Another great animation film from Pixar. It's weird to think that the original was made 14 years ago! It's one of my favourite animated films. So with high expectations it's great to say this is almost equal to the original. The animation is great, tons of new characters as well as the old cast. With an up to date story as well... maybe not quite as funny as the first. Still an excellent film for everyone to enjoy.

this novel was well written and imaginative. many others rated it merely 1 star or gave it bad reviews. the only way to account for their disappointment is to assume they were simply expecting something different. I went into this read with no expectations. zero. zilch. there's no way the author could've compared this story to the success of the first. it was what it was, a fun way to celebrate 10yrs. I applaud her effort and enjoyed every page. well done.
