Talkie Tuesday: Rebel Moon A Child of Fire

 

"Who among you is willing to die for what we believe in, 

rather than hide behind it?"

 

Hello everyone!

 

Tonight, we're sailing into uncharted waters, or, possibly skies?

 

Skies. Definitely skies.

 

I'll admit that it took me forever to actually sit down and watch this movie, despite the fact that it's been on my list from pretty much the moment it launched. What can I say, I'm a sucker for space opera of any kind, notice that I've been watching Star Wars and Star Trek in every and all iterations since they launched, pretty much?

 

So you could say this is my kind of jam, honestly.

 

And in all fairness, it was actually pretty decent to watch, all things considered.

 

Not that I often listen to what critics are saying, because usually they're miles from what I'll end up watching, but still.

 

Buckle your seatbelts, because tonight we're flying into Rebel Moon's part one: A Child of Fire!

 

Tome Thursday: Abducting Artemis

 

Hello everyone!

 

And welcome to the first installment (or is it prequel?) of a new series that I randomly picked off of BookSirens a little while ago.

 

Oh yes, BookSirens, remember them?

 

That fancy-schmancy online nexus where authors upload their ARCs for readers to then peruse at their leisure and leave free reviews in return?

 

Yes, that BookSirens.

 

Honestly, if you haven't checked it out yet, you totally should. If you're a voracious reader like I am, this is SO going to make your life easier, I can guarantee it.

 

But back to tonight's story, which is all about, er ... Greek Gods.

 

In space.

 

Buckle up, Buttercups, because Abducting Artemis boldly goes where no one has gone before.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Star Trek Beyond

"This is where the frontier pushes back."

Hello everyone!

Back after my week-long break, and I'm feeling quite happy with how everything turned out. I settled what needed settling, finished some of the things that had been bugging me for a while, and also managed to get a good, big chunk of my fanfiction written, as well.

And  with 'big chunk' I mean roughly 110 Word pages, which I suppose in a standard reading format would be around 220-230? Somewhere around there, but I still need to finish up.

I kind of left it for another time, though, as it's all about the funerals and leave-takings and whatnot, and I didn't want to end on a super sad note!

So today I'm back with a movie review of a movie I'd seen a while back but never actually got to writing a review about. They had a thing here on TV where they aired Star Trek first, then it was Star Trek: Into Darkness, and then I decided why not round it all up and finish with the latest of the lot, Star Trek Beyond?

After all, I'd seen the trailers and LOVED it. 

I didn't love the finished product any less, either.
