Talkie Tuesday: The Secrets of Dumbledore

 

"Do what is right - not what is easy."

 

Hello everyone!

 

We finally move away from the big names of Star Wars and the inner workings of that franchise, only to find ourselves firmly anchored in another.

 

Now it's been a hot minute since the previous movie was released, because filming for this was delayed and complicated with so many other things, from trials, accusations, to COVID, and yet FINALLY we have it here with us!

 

It's also arriving on HBO Max at some very near point in the future if I remember correctly.

 

But honestly, with so many other things to worry about in the world, isn't it fantastic to be able to literally turn your brain off for a little bit?

 

I think so, at least.

 

So without further ado, y'all better dust off your wands now, Muggles.

 

Because we're about to uncover The Secrets of Dumbledore, and you're going to need them.

 

Talkie Tuesday: The Crimes of Grindelwald

"I've chosen my side."

Hello everyone!

So alright.

I promised you a review of the 2018 Robin Hood remake - and it's coming, I promise. 

Unfortunately for our rob-from-the-rich-give-to-the-poor chap, I was bored this last Sunday and stumbled across something I'd wanted to watch FOR AGES but didn't get the chance to catch it in cinemas back in November and December.

There was literally no time.

So when I saw the title pop out from the million of other things I was doing in that moment, everything screeched to a halt and nothing else mattered but watching it.

I even managed to time it so that the movie wrapped up just as I was called in to lunch.

How awesome was that timing, am I right?

Anyway, since seeing the first movie and hearing that there were going to be more of these, my side-focus has always been on it, even with the distractions.

Wands at the ready, everyone, because the sequel to Fantastic Beasts, The Crimes of Grindelwald, is up.

Talkie Tuesday: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

"My philosophy is: if you worry, you suffer twice."

Hello everyone!

So this past weekend, my friends and I decided on a group outing and went to see what was probably one of the most (if not THE most) anticipated movies of this month, which just goes to show that a little bit of magic can go a long way in any movie. 

I'm talking, naturaly, of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the screenplay of which was written by Rowling herself (as opposed to something I will not name).

I can honestly say that I'd only ever seen the one initial trailer for the movie proper, and maybe it wasn't even a trailer but a teaser trailer, before it sort of fell off my radar because I was a bit busy with a lot of other things, so I went into the cinema pretty much with no definite decision of what to expect.

Which is just as well, actually, seeing as I probably enjoyed myself a whole lot more because of this. Seriously, I tend to get my hopes up WAY too much.

But then of course, this movie also had Colin Farrell ...

I digress. I should probably start the actual review now.
