Not a bad watch it was recommended to me on a Saturday morning and I watched the whole season by that night! Very cheesey comedy about a girl that travels to France for work from America but doesn't fit in all that well. She soon learns and grows and starts building a life for herself. Paris, the city of love, where she makes new friends new lovers and a few mistakes.

I do really like this series. The Fuentes brothers have grown on me a lot. I absolutely loved Alex, and Carlos wasn't so bad either, but Alex is still my favourite. I'm off to start Luis' story now.

P.S. I love that end bit--the 26 years later but--with the kid who's so like Carlos used to be when he was that age. It's kinda funny to see him reacting like he is.

"I love the music and the archetypes represented in the movie stick with me. Strong character. The characters just stand out as some of the best, and I love, love, love the music. There’s really good bad guys, really good good guys. I love it. Love it, love it. And it’s a cartoon so it’s one of those things that stuck with me as a kid and still watch it to this day."

Movie Favorite

"One of the greatest, funniest, and truest reflections on trying to become an adult, The Last Days of Disco is also one of three movies that have the most lines of dialogue perpetually floating around in my head (the other two being A Night at the Opera and Clueless). Right now I’m thinking of Chris Eigeman telling his friends, “I wish we were yuppies. Young, upwardly mobile, professional. Those are good things, not bad things.”"

Movie Favorite

"Welcome to the Dollhouse is great. Even though it’s about a girl in middle school, to me, that feels like the most honest reflection of what being a kid around that age feels like. It’s just so bad. It’s like that movie captures the very worst moments of being that age so perfectly. Everything is unfair, everyone hates you, and the world is totally against you. It’s such a good coming-of-age movie."

Full of "Mary Sue"-isms and fannish wank, the book does one hell of a disservice to both the Faction Paradox mythos as well as to anything [Sherlock] Holmes-related! The lead character, Gillian, is neither likeable nor someone whom you hope succeeds! Sure, there are probably worse Holmes pastiches out there, but I'll stake my nose on it that none of them will be as bad as this drek! 100% certifiably AVOIDABLE! 'Nuff said!

Well I have to be in the mood to read erotica and it seems I wasn't when I read this.

That's not to say it was bad because it isn't, I just sort of skipped through some bits and read others so that I got the gist but I cant say I got really into it.

Will still buy the third to find out what happens in the end of the trilogy.

Garden gnomes, Gnomeo & Juliet, recruit renowned detective Sherlock Gnomes to investigate the mysterious disappearance of other garden ornaments.



I really wasn't sure where I was going to fall on this one. It was fine, but predictable. Very predictable. It passed the time with some chuckles but nothing that really split my sides. I doubt this will be one I'll watch again. It's main benefit is that it isn't as bad as Duck Duck Goose.

Just watched aty local Cineworld it's not bad very violent and Russell crowe gone full psycho a side of him we don't normally see in the movies for me the real star of the movie is Caren pistotius showing off her emotions as she slowly terrorised by crowe some of the violence was graphic but it was worth a couple of hours spent In the cinema
