Talkie Tuesday: Armageddon


"The dreams of an entire planet are focused tonight on those fourteen brave souls traveling into the heavens."


Hello everyone!

So yesterday I was debating which movie I should review on here when I walked down into our living room and there was my mother, turning the TV on, telling me that there was a movie we all love somewhere on one of the channels.

Naturally it turned out to be probably my favourite disaster movie of all time.

We kind of missed out on most of the prep time for the story itself - aka what happens BEFORE they get all the action going - but considering we clocked in right around the time they were going to be slingshot-ing around the moon, I think we pretty much nailed it.

If you haven't figured out what I'm talking about from that Road Runner reference alone, let me enlighten you.

It has Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler, along with pretty much what you'd call a stellar all-star cast nowadays, it features a big ass rock trying to destroy the Earth, and if you've ever seen Aerosmith's most viewed music video, you also know that you don't wanna miss a thing.

Figured it out yet?

The Bible, and Michael Bay, call it Armageddon.

Talkie Tuesday: Wonder Woman

"I will fight for those who cannot fight for themselves."


Hello everyone!

So after that impromptu break which I took without announcing anything, I figured I might as well come back with a big bang. Right? Right. 

There I was, minding my own business at the seaside, when I stumbled upon Wonder Woman quite by accident. As in, I had known there was a movie being made and that it was just about to drop in theatres by the time I hightailed it to the coast, but I wasn't paying too much attention to the actual dates.

And here and now, let me tell you: boy, am I glad I paid attention later!

DC has sort of been lagging behind Marvel in terms of their superhero movies, only just coming into their own with Man of Steel and the following Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice (which a lot of people complained about and I, personally, only really checked the ending of), but they now seem to be on the right track.

Let's begin our journey then, shall we? With the one, the only, Wonder Woman.
