Random thoughts of a crowded mind
Read the latest reviews of my favorite TV shows including Game of Thrones, The Flash, The Walking Dead and more.
Like many people, watching the Hamilton film on Disney Plus was my first time experiencing the play. Up until that point, I’d only ever seen Lin-Manuel Miranda sing Alexander Hamilton on a late-night talk show. My version of Hamilton Hamilton, for me, is a story of an immigrant who arrived in America with big dreams …
DCs Stargirl premiered on 18 May 2020 and is another offering in the Arrowverse. Courtney Whitmore aka Stargirl (Brec Bassinger) first made an appearance in the fifth instalment of Crisis on Infinite Earths where we learn that she is from the rebooted Earth 2. Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman and The Legends of Tomorrow now all reside …
Avengers Endgame was an epic end to an 11-year story arc. Whilst some may have been disappointed with some of the plot points, I found the film on a whole to be very satisfying. There is one character arc that had many in their feelings and as it is Mental Health Awareness Week, I’m using …
Following the penultimate episode of the final season of Game of Thrones many fans took to social media to condemn the ruination of their beloved character Daenerys Targaryen. Although many of us will have seen the descent into a mental breakdown coming, many others claim this heel turn is unbelievable because Dany has always been …
Black Panther is an amazing episode of storytelling in the Marvel cinematic universe. As a standalone superhero movie, it had everything, a great story, well-choreographed fight scenes, explosions and a great villain. All that should be enough to satisfy any Marvel fan but if you go below the surface there is so much more to …
Oh happy, happy days! Game of Thrones is back finally. I’m sure I’ve started walking with a spring in my step, that’s how whipped this show has me. It’s like a long-distance romance where you only get to spend 10 weeks of the year with your lover. Ahem! Anyhoo. I was waiting for my favourite …
The Walking Dead season finale Last Day on Earth has left some fans very angry with its ridiculous cliffhanger ending and I’m one of them. I’ve waited a week to write about my feelings on the finale because I didn’t want to come over all incoherent and super ranty and I’m going to try to …
Spoilers ahead for the Sleepy Hollow season 3 finale, ‘Ragnarok’. I went into the finale of Sleepy Hollow still miffed about Joe’s death wondering why the producers would rip him away from Jen like that. Little did I know I was about to have my own heart ripped out! The Mills girls deserve nice things …
I took a break from The Walking Dead after the Richonne reveal. I never saw it coming but it seemed like everyone else had been wishing, hoping and expecting it. I spent days over thinking things and wondering if we were all watching the same thing. It was a ridiculous endeavour really. I mean I’ve …
2015 wasn’t a bad year for new science fiction / fantasy series premières but for me not all of them hit the mark. There were four shows in particular that I was looking forward to watching but they failed to slay me. Here’s my list: Ash Vs. Evil Dead Let’s start with a no brainer. I’m not …
When I heard that Steve Lund would be returning to Haven, I had hoped we would find out what happened to James Cogan aka The Colorado Kid, after the barn exploded. But in this week’s episode entitled Just Passing Through, Nathan and Vince travelled back to 1983 where we saw how James died. With only …
Having watched this week’s episode of Haven, I’m going to got out on a limb and say that Dave Teagues is not Croatoan regardless of what he stands accused of. It’s more than likely that as a halfling child from another world, it’s easier for the monster to take over Dave’s body and commit evil …
