Bullet Review: Beauty and the Beast (2017)

Beauty and The Beast (2017), it’s a live action remake of the 1991 animated Disney film of the same name, oh and it’s american. My understanding of it is hampered a little by the fact that it’s a remake and I already know the story. SPOILERS! IMDB’s Rating: 7.5 Rotten Tomatoes: 71% Plot Explanation: “Belle (Emma Watson), a bright, beautiful and independent young woman, is taken prisoner by a…

The Gist-ish Of It

Do you know what I hate even more than words? … Time. It most certainly isn’t on my side. Or maybe that should be time management? (But I digress.) Whether it is time to write (here, there and everywhere) or film, I always seem to fall short. As I get older, I remember more and more what I was told by adult’s as a child: ‘Days go faster the more you age.’ And I’ve felt it at an increasing pace…

Bullet Review: Coraline #thehanableinvasion

Coraline. It’s a 3D stop motion American film from 2009. My understanding of it is hampered a little by the fact that I first watched it many years ago minus the last 15 minutes and only managed to see it all recently. SPOILERS! IMDB’s Rating: 7.7 Rotten Tomatoes: 90% Plot Explanation: “When Coraline moves to an old house, she feels bored and neglected by her parents. She finds a hidden door with…

Bullet Review: Split #thehanableinvasion

Split. It’s an American film from 2016. My understanding of it is hampered a little by the outside stresses at the time and personal annoyances. SPOILERS!

Bullet Review: La La Land #thehanableinvasion

But as success mounts they are faced with decisions that…

Bullet Review: Logan #marvel #wolverine #Logan

Logan. It’s an American film from 2017. I saw it in the cinema last night and my understanding of it is hampered by being a huge emotion wreck who can’t deal with endings. SPOILERS! IMDB’s Rating: 8.7 Rotten Tomatoes: 92% Plot Explanation: “In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hide out on the Mexican border. But Logan’s attempts to hide from the world and his…

Bullet Review: Devdas a.k.a. Paro = Best

Devdas. It’s a Bollywood film from 2002. My understanding of it is hampered a little by the version I was watching being in German with no subtitles, the reason why being too long for a Bullet Review. I think I got gist of it. SPOILERS! IMDB’s Rating: 7.6 Rotten Tomatoes: 88% Plot Explanation: “Devdas (Shahrukh Khan) makes his way back home to India after spending 10 years studying in London. He…

The Gist Of It #Ihatespelling #thehanableinvasion #blog

DO you know what I hate? (Well hate is a strong word here, but I’m going for a strong introduction so allow me this, okay? Please?) Words. I hate them, annoying little things that get in my way and are hard to spell. This is the real reason why I hate them, spelling. Maybe it’s the weird way in which I was taught to read and write as a child, because read, hell yes I could read (well still can…

Oh dear, oh dear, it's been a while. #blog

Whoa, hey, it’s been a while here.  Well a while in both blog posts and posts about things that aren’t just videos. So let’s examine it a bit shall we? No? Well we’re gonna do it anyway. As well as your normal amount of lack of motivation, the real thing I think is that I’m feeling my age now more than ever. I’m 25, I know that in the grand scheme of things that isn’t old, but it’s the oldest I…

A Headache Of A Novel #writing help me out here

Now, I know in my last blog post I talked a little about NaNoWriMo, but I need to talk a little bit about it again (just for some backstory here, I won’t bore you to death again I promise.) Last year I managed to complete NaNoWriMo, and I’m going to try it again this year (though I have less free time this go around, I’m still hopeful. And terrified.) I’m working on the same story, a first draft,…
