The Raven Volant
Three weeks today until London. Three weeks until I spend the longest time amount of time in a different country, ever. The last time I spent so long outside of Belfast was for a month in 1999 in Chicago when I was eleven and again when I was fourteen, so it's been a long time since I've done anything like this, well I've never done anything quite ( Read more... ) -
This is why I'm happy
I've wanted to tell you guys my awesome news ever since last week, but I decided to hold back until everything was confirmed, which it finally was, today! So are you ready to hear my very fucking awesome news ( Read more... ) -
I'm alive!
I knew I’d take forever to update this thing, but I wasn’t expecting it to take quite this long! Now that university is finished (for now at least) I finally have a lot of free time on my hands, which is totally inimical to me since I basically lived in the library for the whole of the last semester, so I figured ‘why not blog’. I can happily ( Read more... ) -
Shameless Plug for Twitter
So life officially sucks right now. I have three weeks of university life left, a veritible fucking mountain of work to get through (not to mention my dissertation!) and currently I'm stressed as hell. Unsurprisingly I haven't had the chance to catch any new movies since last time, apart from the movie I've reviewed below, which is the final one I' ( Read more... ) -

Who Watches the Cage?
I know this is ridiculously late going up BUT the deadline for my second review was today so I thought I'd post it. For this movie I chose Zach Snyder's Watchmen, following up from last months Lost in Translation. I have one more review to do for this course, and it had to be a foreign language movie, which is going to be tricky as I never seem to ( Read more... ) -
Where the Awesome Things Are
Gosh, I haven’t blogged properly in quite a while! Apologies. Then again I think a grand total of two people read this so I shouldn’t be stressing too much for not sticking to deadlines. So what’s been new with me? Not a lot to be honest. I’ve managed to best my own record by not attending one of my classes for about six weeks, so I am officially ( Read more... ) -
Whisper in Tokyo
I know I haven't written in a while, but blogging has been the very last thing on my mind recently. Anyway, I wrote this for my Hollywood Cinema module and thought it was worth posting here. Today I chose Un Conte de Noel over Capote to watch at the QFT. It was a bad choice. I had planned to finally see Breakfast at Tiffany's tomorrow, but on the ( Read more... ) -
The Moment
In honour of the huge significance of today’s events here is some advice provided by world-renowned poet Maya Angelou to the 44th President of the United States of America. Like a lot of people I feel confident Barrack Obama is a strong enough character to set the world straight again, and with the new mood of optimism throughout the world I ( Read more... ) -

I’ve been putting off writing this entry for a long time, and I feel guilty at not having written it sooner, but it’s been difficult for me to try and put this into words ( Read more... )
