The 2006 EFFB (long) |

Movie review - X-Men: The Last Stand |
Well, it was good. But even before the final wrap-up I was sitting in the cinema thinking it just wasn't as good as the other two X-Men films. There was also significant changes from the comics source...

An Ancient Protector looks on, green with envy, as I cruise past on my new Striped Nightsabre (special thanks to Leaf's druid Pickle for the 50g loan)...I play this game too much, but then I do have a...

Movie review - War of the Worlds |
Just like Jeff Wayne's musical version, this starts with a rectial of (almost all of) the first paragraph of H.G. Wells book. It sounds like Morgan Freeman reading it... "...and slowly and surely drew...

Movie review - Batman Begins |
