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: Avengers Endgame

"Avengers ... assemble."


Hello everyone!

Well, against all odds, I finally made it.

Not that it didn't take me freaking FOREVER.

The thing that happened this time was that I watched three or so Marvel movies in a row and then decided I needed to take a break - then the break turned out to be longer than expected because I just couldn't seem to find the time.

Three hours is a bit much and you need to actually plan to ensure you can get that in one go!

But I did it, and it's all under the belt now. FINALLY.

Of course it's late in comparison to when most people've seen this movie, but at this point it's not something I even worry about anymore.

I'm always late to something or other haha.

Avengers: Endgame was just the current in a long list of my lateness!

Talkie Tuesda: Avengers Infinity War

"We're in the endgame now ..."


Hello everyone!

Back with a movie blog and believe it or not I'm typing this one up at 6 am.

Why?

Because summer, that's why.

Summer has FINALLY hit the country but that means that temperatures are all over the place, aka super high and then some, which also means I either have to turn the AC on if I don't want to melt, or I simply don't go on the computer except early in the morning and then after the sun dips again late afternoon.

Unless something happens that ABSOLUTELY needs my presence online, I think I'll stick with not going online at all.

That being said, it IS time for a movie review, and why not continue along in the Marvel vein?

Heard about a Gauntlet running around? Let's look at Infinity War and see how the Avengers do.

Talkie Tuesday: Ant-Man

"Who are you, who is she, what the hell is going on here, and can I go back to jail now?"


Hello everyone!

So, obviously, I'm a big Marvel fan. I think I've proven that in my previous blog posts, but in case you've all forgotten, please see exhibits A and B, thank you! 

I kind of sort of didn't really get to finish Marvel's Second Phase when I should have, however, because for some reason I just didn't get to Ant-Man until very recently. Why, you ask? I'm really not one hundred percent sure about what happened.

Maybe it as because he really looks a whole lot like the Atom from DC and I kind of like watching Ray Palmer do his thing on Legends of Tomorrow. Maybe because I'm not the biggest Paul Rudd fan.

Maybe I just didn't want to watch one more movie that'll bring me close to Captain America: Civil War.

I kind of like listing that last fact as the go-to, however, my OCD finally prevailed, so here I am tonight to talk about Ant-Man.

Talkie Tuesday: Avengers - Age of Ultron

"Sokovia is going for a ride ..."

Hello everyone!

So, first off, let me just say that I had originally planned on writing about a different movie in this week's movie blog post, because I'm sort of sticking to a schedule, or list shall we say, which I made while I was watching them and such, but my plans went completely out of the window this weekend as I sat down to watch one of the most anticipated movies of 2015, I believe. 

 Well, at least where Marvel is concerned.

I am absolutely talking about the new Avengers movie which brings us to the (almost) conclusion of Phase Two in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (actually, Ant-Man does that, but I'm still waiting to watch it, so).

I will also admit to being a bit of a dork when it comes to these things, seeing as I've been a Marvel fan for a while now, and can we just say YAY on the fact that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is coming back next week?!
