From the first time I saw the trailer, I had been looking forward to this movie. Although I've always been more into Playmobil than Lego and I've never played one of those Lego games (on the computer or as a board game) that are popular nowadays, I immediately thought this is going to be a great deal of fun ( Read more... )

I realized why I stopped collecting more or less blindly all Doctor Who books (not that I gathered up that many to begin with): not every author can write well for the Doctor. Or perhaps it's just that not every of those many authors that work for BBC Books writes to my liking.

"The Doctor Trap" is about Ten and Donna. It shows their faces on the ( Read more... )

I'm so far behind with this, I have to start at the beginning - in this case at the time of the Flood ( Read more... )

The sequel of Captain America was better than expected, although not necessarily due to the hero. Perhaps, however, because of the other main character: the Winter Soldier. And the side-kick ( Read more... )

I really do like Liam Neeson in action movies. He's a great actor and can do almost anything, but despite him being not exactly a young handsome chap (anymore) - like Jason Statham (who isn't a very good actor outside his action genre) - the vengeful action-hero suits him ( Read more... )

I'm dreadfully behind with my cinema and book reports - so let's head right into Pompeii ( Read more... )

I finally finished the 900+ pages of Stephen King's "Wolves of the Calla" (or "Wolfsmond" - wolf moon - as it is called in German).

I'm not entirely sure why it took me so long, because it actually was well written and I enjoyed it. I suppose it really was just a bad time for me to read such a long book which was also too thick to carry with me ( Read more... )

Anybody who has watched "300" knows that there was bound to be a sequel - after all, Gerry Butler and his Spartans got (almost) all killed. However, it doesn't make much sense to call this one "300", too, other than to make a connection to the first film. Depending on when during this sequel there seem to be either less Greek warriors (and none of ( Read more... )

First of all, this is not a new version of any Tarzan film that has been there before - although at first glance it looks a bit like Disney's Tarzan ( Read more... )
