1917: The Frontline Review. Top Story - January 2020.
World War One is a period of time that doesn't receive a lot of attention in the movie industry. Maybe it is because the powers that be got involved for less-than-noble reasons, so it wouldn't seem right to try and make a film on the matter. But for the hundreds of thousands of everyman soldiers that thought and died in battle, this was just them following orders, even if they didn't always agree with them.

Games I Loved in 2018
Around this time last year, I threw a list of games together I enjoyed playing throughout the course of 2017. In the grand scheme of things it didn't do too well, barely scraped 20 reads and I wasn't very clear in what I was trying to do with it. I called it Games I had fun with, but some of the titles in the list (namely Hellblade) wasn't fun in the sense of joyfulness, but it was a powerful experience which I loved, hence the title change here.

'Life Is Strange: Before the Storm' Broke Me Too
Earlier this week, I brought myself to finish Before the Storm, the prequel to what became one of my all-time favourite games, Life is Strange. I'll admit, I took a while to even purchase it, and longer still to play it. I could, and at times still can, feel the emotional hangover from the original.

'Avengers 4' Trailer: First Impressions
Well, then. At 1 PM GMT, December, 7 2018, the Avengers 4 trailer was unleashed upon the world. I'm writing this at 2:05 PM—and I'm yet to calm down. I've watched it several times, so I thought I'd get my first thoughts and impressions out there while I'm on this hype high.

Death of the Dreamers: The Pursuit of Happiness
A few years ago, when a lot of my friends left for university, I stayed behind. A lot of you may already know why. For those who don't, the TL;DR is, I was incredibly depressed and didn't think going to university was the best option for me, nor did I think it was safe. Yes, another depressed millennial, trust me I wish I was different too, but I digress.

MUSE—'Simulation Theory': The Super Deluxe Review
If you're a friend of mine or indeed have stood anywhere in hearing distance of me, chances are you know I'm a big fan of Muse. They've been my favourite band for nearly a decade and I've enjoyed everything they have put out thus far.

'Call of Duty: Black Ops 4' Review
Despite my dashing looks and rogue-like charm, I'm unable to get advanced copies of games so I can review them on release day. So I went the other way and waited a couple of weeks before trying to review it. I did the same with WW2 last year. I feel, looking back, I bought into the hype of going back to World War II and boots-on-the-ground combat too much.

Life as a Movie Extra. Top Story - August 2018.
Even though I've bored a lot of my friends to death with this subject, there are still people in the world that do not know I'm an occasional film extra. It's unusual, especially in a quiet, stuck-in-the-past town like mine, but it does bring about some great conversations.
