Light vs dark. Good vs evil. The Resistance vs the First Order. We have our first glimpse at Star Wars Episode VIII: The last Jedi, and as with the trailers for The Force Awakens, nothing is given away. The Last Jedi appears to pick up straight where The Force Awakens left off (something already hinted […]
The next installment of Star Wars saga has graced our screens, and I’d heard favourable comparisons to the most acclaimed film of the saga, The Empire Strikes Back. Is this comparison merited? And how does Disney’s second Star Wars effort measure up to 2015’s The Force Awakens? Rogue One is a very different film to […]
2016 is the year that just keeps punching us. It doesn’t care where, or when, or why, it just keeps coming back to torment us. Today, it has robbed us of the legendary Carrie Fisher. For many, Carrie Fisher is defined by the role of Princess Leia in Star Wars. This was her most iconic […]
Well, I mentioned the other day that I hadn’t seen this dystopian sci-fi epic, and now I have. Is it everything it was made out to be? Read on and find out! The version in question was ‘The Final Cut’, which is important to mention because there are several cuts of this film, just to […]

I need to reword the title – it’s not really a celebrity fight, but you know what I mean… So, in the blue (or should that be red white and blue?) corner, we have Steve Rodgers, aka Captain America, as per his appearances in the MCU. In the red corner, we have Khan Singh, […]
It’s probably clear to everyone who follows my blog that I am a huge Trekkie. I have all sorts of merchandise from the shows and films. Some of my proudest possessions are Star Trek books and models. On my left arm is a Star Trek tattoo. This epic sci-fi series is second to none in […]
Today is favourite horror novel. As with most things horror, I’m not all that familiar with horror novels. I would place Cell by Stephen King near the top, by virtue one of the few that I’ve read! I would have to give the win to Peter F Hamilton’s The Realilty Dysfunction, which a cross between […]
It seems fitting that, on the day of Star Trek’s 50th anniversary, I pay tribute to its most famous vessel – the starship Enterprise!
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
Ever since I was a cub, I have generally speaking been fond of swimming. I don’t do it often, but when I do, I enjoy it. I consider myself a reasonably confident swimmer, and I have few qualms about going out into the sea when at the beach (well, when I’m somewhere warm, with clear […]
