I love screening out emails knowing they can never email me again on hey.com
I was an early adopter of GMail and managed to get a short GMail address, [email protected]
This was great until I realised how many people would sign me up to things thinking it was THEIR address ?
The email became unusable. Now for the first time I’m checking it again because it’s forwarding to [email protected] and I can screen what comes in! ?
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, 2002 – ★★★★½
Oh dear the only women are basically to lust over, there are no PoC I don’t think, and Frodo and Sam should just kiss already. Gollum steals the show.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, 2001 – ★★★★
An amazing film, obviously, but it pains me that there are so few women and I don’t think any PoC in this film.
Doctor Who: The Sea Devils, 1972 – ★★½
Watched on Tuesday June 16, 2020.
Land of Hope and Glory, 2017 – ★★★★★
So horrific, yet so necessary.
Edge of Tomorrow, 2014 – ★★★½
Watched on Tuesday June 9, 2020.
Doctor Who: The Curse of Peladon, 1972 – ★★★½
Watched on Thursday June 4, 2020.
Torchwood: Aliens Among Us, Part 2 – ★★★
I’m afraid I really did not enjoy this one. With Gwen possessed (and her storyline really not moved on at all since the first box set) and Jack AWOL through most of it, it hasn’t felt like proper Torchwood.
Torchwood: Aliens Among Us, Part 1 – ★★★
I wanted to rate this higher because I do love Torchwood but I found the last 2 stories were not great, and I don’t like that Gwen is mysteriously possessed for almost the whole thing.
Donna Noble: Kidnapped! – ★★★★★
Absolutely brilliant. Donna is my favourite companion.
Doctor Who: Day of the Daleks, 1972 – ★★★
This review may contain spoilers.
I watched the Special Edition, which had some really good effects. The story was good, very Terminator and timey-wimey. Daleks were a bit of an afterthought though and it all ended rather abruptly. One of the best of the third doctor so far.
Doctor Who: The Dæmons, 1971 – ★★
Watched on Tuesday May 19, 2020.
Doctor Who: Colony in Space, 1971 – ★★½
This review may contain spoilers.
The Master comes along and turns what could have been an interesting story (First time the third Doctor visits another planet, interstellar politics) into a retread of all Master stories, and then they blow up a whole alien city and no-one cares. What?!
The Ring, 2002 – ★★★★★
Probably my favourite horror movie!
Spider-Man: Far from Home, 2019 – ★★★★½
Watched on Monday May 4, 2020.
The Diary of River Song: Series 5 – ★★★★
The first story, “The Bekdel Test” was one of the best Big Finish audios I’ve heard so far!
