Talkie Tuesday: The House with a Clock in its Walls

 

"I want to show you what a little weird can do."

 

Hello everyone!

 

And happy Halloween!

 

Now, for those of us who don't really feel native to the holiday, this is the day of the year when ghosts, ghouls and witches come out to play.

 

For the old continent it's mostly a day to celebrate Reformation, but on the new one it's about parties and having fun (it seems to be the same with younger generations here as well but, as someone who saw the ascent of Halloween and watched the thing develop, I can honestly say I feel old LOL).

 

For me, personally, I don't particularly feel any sort of way about Halloween. Possibly because we have Mardi Gras here in February, but also because I don't like dressing up.

 

I do, however, enjoy some of the other media that gets released during this time of year, and I thought I'd throw it back a little for tonight's post.

 

Five years back, to be precise. To a small little movie called The House with a Clock in its Walls.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Major League

 

"Well then I guess there's only one thing left to do: win this whole f-ing thing." 

Hello everyone!

And welcome to the randomest choice of movie for the review ever.

See, this is what happens when my family decides we're going to have a movie night, and ends up watching something as old as I am.

Oh yeah, this movie came out in 1989.

And by the way, they still made movies you could actually call movies back in those days. What I mean by that is that they FEEL realistic with the vocabulary people use, the actions taken, and the fact they're legitimately focusing on the plot rather than any political machination in the background.

I'm sure there were agendas even back then, but there's certainly none of that WOKE stuff.

I'm telling you, that's the worst that could ever happen honestly.

So forget about it for a second and grab your baseball caps, because we're headed back to Major League and trying to figure out how the circus won the cup.

Talkie Tuesday: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

"Cowabunga!"

Hello everyone!

I'm resurrecting an oldie (but a goldie!) for this week's movie post, because I became inspired after randomly catching the showing on television over the weekend. 

Since I don't watch nearly enough television, I figure it's natural I might have missed it.

But I went to visit a really good friend of mine and after we finished watching a hilarious talk show, we switched to this other channel and lo and behold! there was this movie that I had totally forgotten about until then.

And yeah, I've reviewed it before, but it's been years. I figured I could take another look at it and see whether or not my thoughts are any different than they were at the beginning.

Also, there can never be enough turtles in your life. Ever.

Figured out what I'll be talking about yet?

Cowabunga, everyone, make room for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
