Talkie Tuesday: Warcraft

"Is war the only answer?"

Hello everyone!

Okay.

I will admit. I'm a bit of a fantasy nut.

I can honestly HEAR people who know me going 'Oh, REALLY?' in the most sarcastic tones ever, but really, I haven't actually sat down to write something very, very fantasy-like in a while now.

And then I remembered this gem I decided to watch some time ago.

The movie itself is already a year old, so to be honest I'm out of the loop and definitely late into the game, and it's been a while since I've seen it so there's been a lot of back-and-forth for me to remember just what, precisely, was going on back in the thing itself.

Also, I have to be honest with you: my main reason for trying this on for size was the fact that Travis Fimmel was cast in one of the lead roles.

I mean, have you seen Vikings? You probably have. If you've seen the show, you know you NEED to see anything and everything Fimmel does in his career, because he's just that good. And, yeah, okay, I wanted to see if his accent would be different to the one he had as Ragnar.

Ergo, without further ado, allow me to introduce Warcraft!

Talkie Tuesday: Dracula Untold

"Sometimes, the world doesn't need another hero.
Sometimes, what it needs is a monster."

Hello everyone!

I'm back with another movie blog, although my backlog of movies that I have yet to see hasn't gotten any shorter yet, despite all my attempts to do so. 

I just keep getting distracted!

Whether it's because of Dancing with the Stars or because Outlander has just premiered again (season two, woohoo!), I almost never have time to actually watch a movie for two hours straight unless something drastic happens. This is one of the many reasons why I'm usually pretty content once shows end for the summer break between seasons, because at least then I can pick up the slack and watch everything I missed out on during the rest of the year.

But the movie I'll be talking about tonight is actually one that I really, truly should have seen at least a year ago, and never got to it. I finally managed to do so though and I can honestly say that I enjoyed it, regardless of a lot of negative criticism that's rolling around the world wide web.

I'm talking about Dracula Untold.
