Preacher: Must Watch TV

For those who read my blog religiously (all 2 of you) you'll remember that I wrote a post about TV to watch out for in 2016 [http://bit.ly/1Kc5htl] and Preacher was one of the ones that I was really looking forward to. So far in it&

Me Before You Review

Thanks to Show Film First [http://www.showfilmfirst.com] I was able to see Me Before You...first. Well okay not "first" but I got to go to an preview screening along with a packed cinema of other people who had been lucky enough to snag a ticket.

Power

Loot Crate: Power

This months theme was Power which meant that the loot crate team had brought together pieces of loot that represented some of the greatest powers in the many fantasy worlds that we love. These included my personal favourite from the lot which was a menacing looking Hulk Q-fig and why

Instameet

Instameet Bug

Since my first instameet during Flatpack [http://bit.ly/1VOIk9L] a few weeks ago I realised I would probably be going to these every chance I got. I had the bug. > Instameet: gatherings of people coming together to connect, explore, and celebrate their creativity. They happen all over the

Artist Highlight

Artist Highlight: Pickled Circus

As it's Friday 13th I decided there was no better time than now to talk about a favourite Artist of mine Matthew Roby who goes by the moniker Pickled Circus probably due to the wondrous menagerie of misfits, monsters and marvels that he creates! A talented artist by

TV

Empty Cup Awards

We all watch TV and film knowing that it's make believe even if the film or show is based on something that really happened. For the most part we accept the world presented to us but sometimes the "realism" breaks down when the simple things aren&

Netflix

Dear White People becoming a series

Those of you that know me personally know that I loved the film Dear White People before it came out and even more so when it did. I love it so much I even have a t-shirt of it so when the news broke this week that Netflix has ordered

Loot Crate

Loot Crate Quest

This month...last month's crate was Quest, I actually did get it last month but failed to write about it as planned because...life. I also didn't really feel like writing about as I feel like the majority of the crate was wasted on me this

Marvel

Civil War Collector Corps

The latest Collector Corps celebrates the amazing film that is Captain America Civil War and came just before I was going to see it for a midnight showing which was an amazing surprise. As usual the design is slick with artwork featured on the outside and inside of the box.

Star Wars

Is the force strong in you?

As we all know, the only people who haven't seen Star Wars are the characters because they've lived it so we've wondered to ourselves who we would be if we too lived in that world. > Are you human or a Wookie? Are you

Flatpack 10

Flatpack 10 Favourite Bits

Flatpack celebrated it's 10th anniversary with an amazing week of films, shorts, events and talks. Unfortunately I only got to attend 3 days of them but I made sure to pack as much as possible into those days as possible. With that in mind I've limited

Flatpack 10: Cartoons for Kids and Adults

Cartoons are a medium that society incorrectly thinks is an exclusive realm for kids. I'm always amazed by this misconception and infuriated by how most of society is incapable of exploring cartoons as a form of entertainment for adults. Thankfully things like adult swim on cartoon network is

Flatpack

Flatpack 10: Hidden Treasures

My second day of Flatpack was one of exploration and finding new things in a city that is always full of hidden gems. It started with an early morning Instameet which was the first one I have ever been on and it was appropriately on world wide Instameet day, the

Flatpack

Hanging out at Flatpack Hungover

If ever there was a cure for a hangover it would be a bed, some good food and some films. My Friday at Flatpack contained two out of the three and I fully recommend you try it if you're as lucky as I was to get the opportunity

Toy Con

ToyCon UK 2016: Sculpting Workshop

For the second year in a row I decided to attend the creative display known as ToyCon. A convention full of toy designers, artists, customisers, collectors and dealers (of toys obviously). This year I decided to attend for one main reason, the chance to join Matt Jones for his 1

Flatpack

Flatpack Film Festival 2016 is nigh

The tenth Flatpack Film festival is almost upon us. This will be my third year going to it, with last years [http://bit.ly/1ORNmMT] being amazing I expect this year's to be spectacular! With a little less than 2 weeks to go the festival will be kicking

Walking Dead

Took it like a champ...

If you watched the walking dead season finale and if you also read the comic books then you (like me) were probably expecting some brain matter to be splattered by that sweet piece of perfection known as Lucille. When you saw them all lined up you couldn't help

Batman

Evolution of the Batmobile

Batman is man of many gadgets and toys, but none of the tools of the infamous vigilante are as iconic, as the Batmobile itself. Since it's incarnation in the comics it has been redesigned multiple times to fit with the era or version of the Bat that existed.

Loot Crate

Loot Crate: Versus

The theme for March's Loot Crate was Versus which is supposed to celebrate some of the greatest rivalries ever from comics, television and movies. Honestly I found it a little lacking which was disappointing considering the last few crates. The crate itself featured the usual DIY aspect I&

Zootropolis

Zootropolis

Thanks to Den of Geek [http://www.denofgeek.com] I was able to see Disney's new film Zootropolis aka Zootopia a week early at The Electric and I'm so glad that I made the time to do so as it was the perfect film to watch

Chris Evans

Top Gear - Battle of the Presenters

Top Gear has been a staple of British TV for years...decades I'm pretty sure. God knows how it's gone on so long (like most british TV) however for the most part it was highly entertaining and that can in large be pinpointed to one man.

Vinyl

Vinyl - Rock & Roll as you've never seen it before

Vinyl manages to do what documentaries, cameos and behind the scenes footage has failed to do, it brought Rock & Roll the greatest and most iconic sounds of Rock & Roll to life on our screens. Should we be surprised with created by Mick Jagger, Martin Scorsese, Rich Cohen and

Short

iMom

With Mother's day having just passed and it being International Women's Day it's the perfect time to highlight this unique short that shows the nightmare we'd live in if our mothers weren't the superheroes they are and phoned it in

comedy

The Aliens

There are very few British series that I will actually take the time to watch because I usually get bored to tears by the format. However Misfits was one series that I loved up the format of and I'm glad to find that there is a new series

Netflix

Sometimes TV gets History wrong

Always take what you see on TV with a pinch of salt, hell any information that you take in you should always question it. I decided to do this is a quick post because it Black History month in the US and my dad found this really interesting video that
