Talkie Tuesday: Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

 

"A blood debt has to be paid by blood." 

Hello everyone!

Week three in our Marvel catch-up series and we're still going strong, trying to finish off the month with HOPEFULLY a top note rather than a low one!

And thus far, it hasn't disappointed me yet.

After a rough start with Far From Home, Black Widow helped us rise out of the abyss, but it's tonight's movie that REALLY gets the ball rolling, and us soaring! Rhyme unintended, but I mean, we work with what we've got here.

I'll admit I went into the movie more-or-less blind, as I've only seen the teaser trailer way back when, then nothing whatsoever, and ended up watching the movie late as well.

It paid off, though.

It SO paid off.

Without further ado, let's open the scroll of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, shall we?

Talkie Tuesday: Raya and the Last Dragon

 

"Someone has to take the first step." 

Hello everyone!

So this Sunday marked the break day for Men in Kilts, aka they didn't air the next episode and so I'm saving the fifth for next week because I decided to watch something entirely different on my one afternoon off.

If you look back through my blog posts you'll see that, often enough, I'll run into these Disney animated movies.

I mean, I grew up on these!

Not the 3D ones, obviously, but the original animated cartoons!

Still, Disney has definitely managed to hit the success button with a number of their newer animations, so when I saw the trailer for their latest endeavour, I thought to myself it was something I should probably watch eventually.

This past Sunday turned into that 'eventually', and then it was time for Raya and the Last Dragon.

Talkie Tuesday: Jumanji The Next Level

"I swear man, if we survive, I am gonna kill you!"

Hello everyone!

Sadly, there was no Outlander this previous weekend as the show has apparently decided to leave us hanging (literally) to see the aftermath of the shocking revelation that was the end of The Ballad of Roger Mac.

Now, I'm a book reader, so I know what happens, and I've managed to gnaw my way through the re-read of The Fiery Cross as well, meaning I know which big points the series will attempt to hit going forward.

But STILL.

So while there is nothing to report on the Outlander front, I've been watching the occasional movie when time allowed.

Not much, you see, but just enough to keep interested in all the stuff happening on the big screen.

And while I may be behind on several more popular releases, I figured it couldn't hurt to cover one that had action, adventure, and a Jack Black-sized dollop of humour.

Jumanji: The Next Level awaits!
