Image
A late entry for August, time flies by when you're not having fun and are working so much. Planes 2: Fire & Rescue What is it about?   Published on 8 Apr 2014 A new comedy-adventure about second chances, featuring a dynamic crew of elite firefighting aircraft devoted to protecting historic Piston Peak National Park from raging wildfire. When world famous air racer Dusty (voice of Dane Cook) learns that his engine is damaged and he may never race again, he must shift gears and is launched into the world of aerial firefighting. Dusty joins forces with veteran fire and rescue helicopter Blade Ranger and his courageous team, including spirited super scooper Dipper (voice of Julie Bowen), heavy-lift helicopter Windlifter, ex-military transport Cabbie and a lively bunch of brave all-terrain vehicles known as The Smokejumpers. Together, the fearless team battles a massive wildfire and Dusty learns what it takes to become a true hero. Directed by Bobs Gannaway ("S...

Here's to the next 100,000! now to celebrate with some GIFs and Kool & The Gang :) In other news, I'm getting a new car soon, a Mini Hatch and finally getting rid of my shitty MG ZR. (NEVER BUY ONE OF THESE!), Work is Manic, my twin sister is proper preggerz, and I've designed some wedding invitations for Abbie, who I'm best man for.

I do love a well made television trailer, especially from the UK. Check out this one for the summer's Coronation Street & Emmerdale.

YC Review: Matilda The Musical

Image
Yesterday (29th June 2014), it seemed a little amusing to me that on the day of London Pride, I was just a few miles away watching a colourful theatre musical. My twin sister and I went to see the matinée performance of Matilda The Musical at Cambridge Theatre, with (correct me if I'm wrong) Lollie McKenzie starring at the title character, and I was even more impressed than I expected to be. I do love a good theatre show, and I'm reasonably new to them. I've only seen (in the West End) The Lion King, Avenue Q, and Wicked. Based on the book, Matilda is about a young girl in a cruel family and a school with a wicked headmistress who finds solitude in books, and changes her destiny in her life by standing up to what's right. The theatre show with music from Tim Michin perfectly encapsulates the zaniness of the story, and the heart. The cast is incredible, standouts include McKenzie mentioned earlier, and all the kids are brilliant, and at such a young age. Alex G...

My Most Anticipated Films: July 2014

Image
Is it just me or are this years movies not as exciting as previous years?? Anyway, July, July, July. Transformers: Age Of Extinction What is it about?   Earth is scarred by the events of the past three movies, but is moving on after all the giant robots disappeared. Cade Yeager, an inventor, discovers a buried Transformer, which sets the stage for the return of the Autobots and Decepticons. When is it released?  Thursday 10th July Why I'm looking forward to it?  Let's be honest, no one watches Transformers and expects a great story, but they are truly escapist high action films. I think Marky Mark will be a whole lot less annoy ing the Shia Le Buff-ting, and we robot dinosaurs always seem fun!

Lost's Nikki & Paulo

Image
Unpopular opinion here but I thought that Nikki & Paulo were going to be great characters in LOST, I don't know why people didn't like them? Ok, they just kind of popped up and got involved in a lot, but they had great potential, and their death storyline was great (they should have been saved at the last minute methinks). PLUS they were both hot and Rodrigo Santoros was in Love Actually! Previous LOST posts The Lost Appreciation Post I'd Get Lost with Kate Any Day Watch This Lost Spoof!
