No Time to Die: A Review

After 18 months of setbacks and false starts, Bond finally managed to return to the cinema, and wow that was a long film.

Scratching the surface of what’s wrong with Star Wars

Ok, I’ll admit that I was wrong. Write the date in your diaries.

Did JJ carefully plan ANYTHING to do with EpVII?

So after an unintended hiatus, “What’s new, you Herculean demonstration of Manliness?” I hear you cry, and multiple remindings off Kib…

What is ‘Captain America: Civil War’?

So I was going to write about Cap: Civil War. (More correctly would be Avengers: Civil War, in my eyes. It’s a better Avengers movie than AoU)
Turns out my mate beat me to the punch. So here it is:

Kibbin's Codex

A few months ago I reviewed a story of a rich billionaire ego maniac fighting an over powered boy scout based on ideological differences. Now lets see it done properly in……………………………

Daredevil wasn’t that bad Vs. Flying Moody Space Jesus

“I love you.” “…I know”

So I’ve been to see Orphan Fight: 2016. Let me begin by saying how much of a DC fanboi I am not, but I know my way around the stuff that matters. The more I have seen advertised about the DCCU, the more I become less and less excited about it. The Dark Knight Trilogy (TDKT) has a lot to answer for; like the entire setting of the DCCU. Seriously at no point should Superman be dark, gritty, or in an R-rated movie. Where Cap is a walking flag, Supes is a FLYING flag.
I honestly think that TDKT has ruined DC movies as much as IMHO Bourne killed Bond. Let me also state that I wanted this movie to be bad, almost as much as I wanted to see Manbat and Space Jesus on screen together.

A rather rare thing

…My blogging, that is.

I’m sat here at a new desk (new job – which is new) and I’ve not blogged in over two months!

Since I last posted –

Shit loads (In no particular order):

Go Ape,
Adam’s Christening,
Easter weekend garden extraordinaire,
Demi had to be put to sleep 😦
Quatro finally closed
REDUNDANCY PAY
New job at an LED sign place
Avengers: Age of Ultron

Plus stuff I’ve forgotten.

I will blog – but remind me.

A month slips by…

Howdy,

Well it has been too long, as is the usual state of things, and I haven’t blogged.
The problem, dear reader, is that I have nothing – NOTHING – to tell you about.

Becks, Stuart and I cleared the garden a bit more, and burnt off all but the last of the shed.

Did I mention we’re making way for a GARAGE?!?! Nothing fancy, just 12’x8′ – enough to house a workbench and 6’x4′ gaming table.  Me so happy. I can put beers on. I can has gaming table. I can mod some of my nerf guns. I can has electronics funs. I can has space to get things sorted…etc etc

Rebecca’s Birthingday was on the 12th, and we went out for a nice meal at Del Caleminos (undoubtedly spelt wrong), and also went to go see XMen: DOFP. Which was surprisingly NOT BAD, and even more surprisingly ACTUALLY QUITE GOOD. But then again, anything with Jennifer Laurance running around dressed in nothing but latex will automatically get a few stars in my book.

Ok not anything.

Cough

I’ve started reading The Tales of The Ketty Jay series of books. The first one was a gift given to me by Kib, and in a break from tradition, I managed to get to read/play it within 24 months of receiving it*. I loved it so much that I immediately ordered the rest of the series after finishing the first.

These book is like nothing you’ve ever seen before so I doubt you’ll ever like it…lies

I had my first game of Malifaux. Which was a fun game, but the rules were a bit of  mind bender. Just give me my dice back! Having said that, I really liked the card mechanic.

Car needs a new exhaust, tyres and brake pads.

And Rebecca has started her own collection of little model men. And she finally watched Firefly and Serenity.

Oh, we’re also going to Manchester Comic Con.

I think I’m beginning to rub off on her…

 

So it turns out that I did have a blog in me! Well let’s all hope that it won’t be as long till the next one!

Arrivederci, bastards

 

 

* if indeed at all.

Ian Fleming is not happy!

It seems that the ghost of poor old Ian Fleming is not happy with the current choice of Bond.

http://entertainment.uk.msn.com/movies/news/Article.aspx?cp-documentid=8553109

See? He’s taking it into his own ethereal hands to try and stop Bond from being blonde.

Ian himself is not happy. Should we not listen to him? Please get rid of this perverted nazi-esque portrayal of JB. Blonde hair + blue eyes = master race. JB was meant to be the opposite. Brown hair + gray eyes = JB.

DOWN WITH CRAIG
