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: Rogue One

"A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away ..."

Hello everyone!

It's time for another movie review, and I was actually reminded of this one yesterday while shopping with my mother for our bi-monthly groceries run. 

I know, right? Talk about a place where you think about movies!

But in the store, I ran into the DVD shelves they have (not numerous, as a rule, but occasionally you'll find movies there that come at a slightly cheaper price than in some specialised shops) and lo and behold, what DVD would my mother pick up but Rogue One: A Star Wars Story?

Then it was my turn to go 'Oh, snap!' about the fact that I'd actually already seen it - but never sat down to write a proper blog about it. 

I should be ashamed of myself. I know this.

Anyway, seeing the DVD last night reminded me that I have the summary in my faithful sheep notebook, ergo, without further ado, let's head into the review!

Talkie Tuesday: Doctor Strange

"It's not about you."

Hello everyone!

Finally, everything seems to be settled enough so that I can write up a blog post on the day it's supposed to be written. I feel so accomplished, haha! 

Luckily, I seem to have found a knack for managing my time a little bit better. It's amazing how much the house of cards can come down all around you when you stop paying attention for even the slightest moment, and then once that happens EVERYTHING follows right along that track, no questions asked.

Lists are my new favourite thing and my best friends. I kid you not.

Which is truly sad, considering the fact that I used to make them but then fell out of the habit ... and now I'm back in the saddle, so to speak! But I'm rambling like a teenager out on her first date so I might as well get to the point.

This past weekend, I finally, FINALLY sat down to watch Doctor Strange, and I say 'finally' with a note of annoyance at myself. I don't usually dawdle so much with Cumberbatch's movies.
