4/10 It was long wait. But was it worth it? Avatar 3 was not what I was expecting. For a start, they have recast the entire film! Pandora was the only remaniing location, though for some reason, they kept on calling it Atlantis. And where did Aquaman come from! Well, after a time, realised that… Continue reading AQUAMAN: THE LOST KINGDOM (2023) – REVIEW
2012 DIRECTOR: Tarzem Singh 70/100 I finally got around to watching this 2012 Snow White adaptation after 8 years an was pleasantly surprised. I missed it at the time, put off by what appeared to be a kids movie, favouring the mediocre Snow White and the Huntsman, in the Cinema instead. I misjudged both films… Continue reading MIRROR MIRROR (2012) – Review
In recent years, as in Star Wars since The Force Awakens, we, as in myself, my better half and my teenage stepson have made the trip on opening night to see the latest addition to the galaxy far, far away. We also go with my parents, who I have been with to see every one… Continue reading STAR WARS SEQUEL TRILOGY: TIME TO HATE THE HATE
2014, 2017, 2019 DIRECTORS: Gareth Edward's, Jordan Vogt-Roberts & Michael Dougherty My ratings of the Monster-Verse so far... Beginning with Godzilla in 2014, the 1998 debacle has been consigned to history, finally a decent westernized version of the Toho classic, Gojira was finally realised. This version of Godzilla was modified not just for the 21st… Continue reading THE MONSTER-VERSE: THE STORY SO FAR… – REVIEW
After watching this video from the rather dubious movie rating site Rotten Tomatoes, a site who's impartiality has been called in to question in recent years, I felt the need to compose a short response... https://youtu.be/FzNZS7-Hsdc "It's a tough one. Whilst would I concur with his choices generally, I also agree that the Prequel's crowd… Continue reading STAR WARS: PREQUELS Vs SEQUELS…
2019 DIRECTOR: Steven Knight 50/100 This! From the man who brought us British television hit Peaky Blinders! This! A mediocre film noir which is almost saved by a bizzare yet intriguing left turn twist half way through, which up until this point, was an unremarkable chiche-fest about fish... The fact that the twist kind if… Continue reading SERENITY (2019) – QUICK REVIEW
The Star Wars Story that nobody asked for, but was is a story worth telling?
In short, NO.
2003 ~ 2005 Seasons 1 ~ 3 DIRECTOR: Genndy Tartakovsky May contain spoilers! Could this be Star Wars at its best? In many ways, I would say yes. Beginning with a 20 chapter, three minutes each serial on Cartoon Network in 2003/2004 and then concluding with five, 15 minute episodes leading directly to the start of… Continue reading STAR WARS: CLONE WARS (CARTOON NETWORK MICRO SERIES)
2008 DIRECTOR: Dave Filoni May contain spoilers! Coming just three years after Episode III (2005), yet set between Episodes II (2002) and III, The Clone Wars (2008) serves a feature length pilot for what would become the successful Cartoon Network series of the same name. But this would in fact be the second series to bear the… Continue reading STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS
2014 (1999, 2002 & 2005) DIRECTORS: GEORGE LUCAS (ORIGINAL FOOTAGE) & ANDREW KWAN (RE-EDIT) Contains spoilers! A fan edit making waves on Youtube, A Phantom Edit attempts to make the best of what are, whether you like the prequels or not, poorly written and conceived scripts. The execution is weak, acting and direction is clunky and too much… Continue reading STAR WARS: EPISODES I – III: A PHANTOM EDIT (FAN FILM)
