Game of Thrones – Season 6 Episode 2: “Home”
Welcome to the episode where the thing happens that everyone knew would happen at some point but actually happened this time! Warning: spoilers everywhere. Please watch the episode before reading!
Falling In Love with Steven Universe
Lately I’ve been suffering from some pretty hardcore migraines and headaches, and I’ve been finding it difficult to get into too many films where I have to pay attention for more than a short amount of time. Luckily, a most lovely friend of mine provided me with the best thing ever to watch when feeling […]
Game of Thrones – Season 6 Episode 1: “The Red Woman”
Season six of Game of Thrones has finally arrived! I spent a good chunk of my public holiday weekend binge-watching season five and crying with a mixture of excitement and apprehension about season six. Whilst watching season five, I noted that there were quite a number of lows (for me, personally) in comparison to a […]
Film Experiment: I Made My Partner Watch Fifty Shades of Grey (2015)
The other day I had what seemed like a brilliant idea when reflecting on Fifty Shades of Grey – what I thought was the worst film of 2015, and what certainly was a low point for women in film. My own beliefs clashed pretty violently with this film’s implicit disregard towards women, and apart from […]
Labyrinth (1986): My Five Favourite Things
The passing of the one and only David Bowie was a tough experience for a lot of people in January of this year; myself included. I wrote a post on my top seven Bowie tunes (keeping it to seven because otherwise it would have spiralled out of control and I would have ended up listing […]
The X-Files, 2016 Miniseries: My Five Favourite Things
I was probably a bit too young for The X-Files when it first came out on television in 1993. I remember catching glimpses of it on ads on television for the next week’s episode and feeling so scared at some of the imagery that my feet felt glued to the ground in fear. But at […]
My Top Seven Favourite David Bowie Tunes
Like so many people on January 10th, I was shocked and saddened to hear of the legendary David Bowie’s passing. I think everyone has their own personal story to share about their love of his music and creative pursuits. And given the sheer expansiveness of his career and talents, it only makes sense that everyone […]
2015 In Review…
Goodbye 2015, hello and welcome to the brand new year of 2016! I hope everyone had a really wonderful New Year’s Eve. I spent my New Year’s by accidentally falling asleep quite early and then waking up at 12:02am, and completely missing the countdown. To be fair, I had a big day at work on […]
Merry Christmas 2015!
Just wanted to make a quick post to say Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope you are having an amazing day no matter what you celebrate. I hope everyone is eating great food and drinking great wine, spending time with people you love, and exchanging excellent and useful presents. And I hope your post-meal food coma […]
Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, Second Movement: In Film
I don’t often write solely about music in film, but recently I watched The King’s Speech (2010) and was struck with the realisation that not only did I recognise a piece of music used towards the end, but that it was actually probably one of my favourite pieces of classical music and I didn’t even […]
