The price of eternal life: A review of Fairy Tail the Movie – Phoenix Priestess

By on July 28, 2014 in Anime, Movies

Some anime moves make for an excellent catch up and introduction for fans. Only recently, for example, I suggested that Strong World was a great way to introduce people to One Piece. Sure; you didn’t know the background to all the characters but you still got a flavour for the series. Fairy Tail the Movie: […]

Comic Con’s expanded Constantine trailer

By on July 27, 2014 in TV

I think this is the best Constantine trailer yet. I write that as someone who wasn’t very impressed by the first and worried the whole show would be a write off. I’ve only come to Constantine via the latter Justice League Dark comic books and he’s always been a prat. Anti-hero? Just unhelpful mage with […]

Doctor Who: Listen

By on July 26, 2014 in TV

The latest Doctor Who teaser trailer out. The current pattern continues. It feels like Doctor Who to begin with, the music, the TARDIS… but the Doctor’s not inside. He’s on the roof instead and seems to be meditating. “Listen” he demands in a husk of a shout. It’s a little creepy. Is this a creepy […]

By on July 26, 2014 in TV

Thanks to Comic Con we can sit back and enjoy a collection of bloopers from season 4 of Game of Thrones. You shouldn’t watch this if you’re worried about spoilers up to s4. There’s no clues as to what happen next. In fact, for much of this video, there’s a total lack of clue. Funny […]
