HY-BRASIL
The mythical island of Hy-Brasil, only visible for one day every seven years and even then unreachable. Sailors who apparently somehow made it ashore in 1674 claimed it was populated by large black rabbits and a mysterious magician ensconced in a giant castle.
OPENING THE MAZE
If you’re walking through a back street in Shoreditch and see a hooded figure spraying graffiti on a back wall of an empty shop, pause for a moment. If they’re tagging their name, or creating a vivid picture, or a cutting piece of satire then I’d just walk on.
If they’re creating a strange spiral shape, like a maze, do everything you can to stop them as quickly as you can. Do not let them spray that last line.
If you do stop them for just thirty seconds, the lines will fade away as if they were never there, and the hooded figure will curse you and run.
If you don’t stop them, then the portal will open and we’re in a lot of trouble. Not that you’ll know anything about it, as you’ll be the first to be eaten.

RABBIT/HOLE SEASON 1
We have finally finished watching this epic spy thriller on Amazon Prime starring Kiefer Sutherland and Charles Dance.
It was very good, full of twists and backstabbing characters that you never really know who to trust until the very final episode, and even then, some characters well still iffy.
I would recommend this series and I will rate this a score of 9/10.

BOOK OF G'QUAN
“There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future, or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.”

BLOOD VESSEL
I watched this really cool Australian World War II horror movie on Shudder this evening.
A group of survivors adrift on a lifeboat find themselves encountering a Nazi Warship that seems abandoned and they board it for shelter and to find a means to get back home to Allied waters, until they find something not quite alive in the bowls of the ship and they must fight their way out for freedom.
The Strigoi creature effects are amazing and very well done and I'm glad they did not go with the typical Hollywood Vampire look, the humour and conflict between the Allied shipmates was handled well, and the atmosphere on board the ship was daunting.
It's also good to have the heroes to be non-American as it's boring now in films. The ending was great and it would be interesting to see a sequel of sorts to this film.
I shall rate this flick a score of 9/10.

CITADEL SEASON 1
Well, we have finally finished watching this weekly action spy thriller on Amazon Prime and it started off really well with some decent action scenes and stunts and then it just over the last couple of episodes, it just fizzled into crap.
And that is a shame!
Richard Madden seemed to have lost his ability to act and he was wooden like a spatula.
Such a waste, but hopefully season 2 will be better and also the Italian spinoff which is out later this year. Fingers crossed.
I shall score this series a rating of 5/10 only!

PHILLIP IS A NASTY NONCE!
This is the young boy that Phillip groomed and "nurtured" from the age of 12 years old, that he kept in contact with and got him a special job on "This Morning" as a Runner and helped him and gave him gifts!
He was also rumoured and now confirmed to be in a relationship with him, and cheated on his wife with the young lad. The young boy got fired from his job as he was going to expose Phillip for what he was and an injunction was placed so that other people in the industry who knew about him being a nonce could not speak about it publicly, but that injunction is about to be released!
And now his career is in ruins! and he deserves everything he gets!
I HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR YEARS NOW, AND AS ALWAYS, I'M RIGHT!

THE OWNERS
Last night I watched this low budget horror thriller movie starring Maisie Williams and Sylvester McCoy.
It's based on the graphic novel "Une nuit de pleine lune" by Hermann and Yves H.
It's an interesting film with none of the cast being that nice and everybody deserved what they got in the end.
The twist end was rather good as was the subject matter, there was still a lot of questions that needed answering at the end and you don't get to find out the answers.
I would recommend this flick if you like the stars, or low budget horror films.
I would score this film a rating of 7/10.

SCARS
I have lots of scars on my body, even way before losing my legs.
My favourite scar is on my left index finger. I got a deep cut from a rose's thorn whilst I was working as a Florist at "Just Flowers."
My other favourite scar is on the back of my neck, that I got from an ex-g/f in a moment of passion.

CONFESS FLETCH
Last night, I watched this crime comedy caper on Amazon Prime.
I was a huge fan of the 80's Chevy Chase Fletch movies but this reboot starring Jon Hamm as an older Fletch was pretty rubbish.
He tried his best at the comedy, but he failed badly, the story was also pretty naff and the guest actors were really hammy and OTT.
I did not have high hopes for this film and it did not disappoint me.
I do not recommend unless you are a huge superfan of Jon Hamm.
I will rate this film a score of 5/10.

VALKNUT
This symbol is a Valknut. The Valknut was the special symbol of Odin, king of the Norse Gods. It consisted of three interlocking Triangles, but if you removed any one of the triangles then the other two would fall apart and would not be linked together at all.
The Valknut symbol is often found on Viking stones where Odin is depicted going into battle or standing over fallen warriors. It’s not hard to see why the symbol would be synonymous with strength in battle: the three interlocking triangles symbolise the strength we have in acting together which falls apart when we go it alone
The valknut is a historical symbol worn by warriors during the Viking age. Even more so, this symbol was worn by warriors who were willing to give themselves as a sacrifice to Odin on the battlefield. The symbol effectively means “I give my life to Odin; he may take me whenever he wishes” You should only wear this as jewelry or a tattoo if you are devoted to Odin and want a place in Valhalla, it is the token of those who are given to Odin and should be worn only by those who are willing to fall at his choice.
If one has a valknut permanently placed upon them as a symbol of their devotion to Odin, they are declaring themselves as a sacrifice to him should he feel the need; whenever and wherever. That is not something to be done lightly.

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA
Yesterday afternoon, we watched this superhero movie on Disney+
It was actually quite good and the special effects were decent as was the story.
I did like the characters of MODOK and Kang, and the freedom fighters led by the actress, Katy O'Brian.
The only two characters I were not keen on was Hope aka Wasp, who has no chemistry with Paul Rudd's Antman. and has been useless in these Antman films. And also the third actress to play the daughter, Cassie who I thought was dull and pointless.
If they ever make a "Young Avengers" film, I hope they recast her again.
The story was good and I had no problem with the CGI, that I read that some people hated it?
I do hope that Disney and Marvel will recast the Kang role, after the actor's arrest over abuse allegations.
I shall rate this film a score of 8/10 and I will watch this again, with the other two movies in order.

UNBELONGING
In a scrubby extension of a park in Sunderland, there is a small set of allotments, dotted with ramshackle wooden sheds with peeling green paint, lopsided greenhouses that look as if they’d fall down in a strong wind, and others which just have tarpaulin for a roof.
Some of the people who you will see there, raking soil or leaning on a spade, or just sitting on a rickety plastic chair, smoking a cigarette, are not really people.
Many years ago, when they were just a baby, the Folk crept into a few bedrooms in bungalows and modest terraced houses and took the babies that slept and gurgled there, and replaced them with their own.
The changelings do not know who or what they are, but they feel drawn to one another, and these allotments are where they have ended up, leaning on spades, smoking cigarettes, knowing that there is a bond between them, but not knowing quite what. And yearning, all the time yearning for something that feels a half-remembered dream just out of reach, like trying to catch fog in your hands.

THE SCHEMES OF LOKI
Loki concocted a great scheme to test the mettle of the dwarfs, convincing two competing families of dwarfs to build three magic items for the gods, including Thor's hammer Mjolnir, Odin's spear Gungnir, Frey's foldable boat and golden boar, and more.

THE RECRUIT
This afternoon, we finally watched this series on Netflix.
It's an action spy adventure show about an inexperienced CIA Lawyer who must protect an asset from herself and other dangerous parties who are after the information that she holds against the agency.
It is action packed, and very funny in the way the agents are portrayed in the workplace at Langley.
The series has been renewed for a second season, which is good.
I shall rate this series a score of 8/10.

SHADOW PEOPLE
Shadow people are dark figures associated with nighttime visitations and some haunted places. Shadow people appear as solid black figures who are darker than darkness. Most appear to be male; some wear coats and hats. They are usually six-and-a-half feet in height. They have substance and form and can interrupt light and block objects from view. Shadow people rarely communicate, but many seem intensely interested in human beings. Shadow people fall into several categories:
Bedroom watchers.
These figures are discovered standing by a bedside or in a corner of the room when a person awakens in the night. They seem to stare at people in bed, even though they have no visible eyes or facial features. Most do not behave in a threatening manner, though their presence is often terrifying. They can remain for long periods of time and when observed, disappear suddenly or melt through walls and ceilings. Some act aggressively toward people, causing choking sensations similar to the Old Hag.
Shadows on walls.
These figures appear suddenly as dark human outlines on walls, which detach from walls and move about rooms.
Moving shadows.
These figures appear abruptly and move quickly through a room, as though on a mission. They come through walls and melt into walls. They may seem to pay no attention to people present or else watch them intensely. They may be seen out of the corners of the eyes or in full view.
Background visitors.
These figures usually are not seen, but are captured in photographs. They appear in backgrounds, their forms noticeable on walls, doors, and so forth.
Haunting presences.
These figures appear in places known or thought to be haunted. They move about, act with intelligence, and appear and disappear suddenly. They may follow people. In some cases, shadow people are associated with bad luck.
There may be no single explanation for shadow people. They are not likely to be ghosts; dark ghostly figures often found in haunted locations are more “shadow figures” than shadow people. However, as noted above, shadow people are found in haunted locations, too, including wooded areas where they are known in folklore as “watchers.” Shadow people share characteristics with the old hag nightmare terror; some experiencers feel paralyzed, suffocated, or choked.
However, shadow people cannot be equated with the old hag syndrome. An explanation favoured by some researchers is that shadow people are interdimensional beings. They find ways into the physical world and seem to have the purpose — unknown—of observing humans. They may show up as bedroom visitors because the nature of human sleeping or dreaming consciousness enables an entry for them.
Their appearance may be a form they deliberately assume, or it may be the only way they can manifest in the physical realm. Many experiencers feel shadow people are a type of nasty spirit, even a Demon, because they sense evil or trickery radiating from them. Almost all experiencers are deeply frightened of shadow people, even though they are not harmed by them.
Shadow people are sometimes associated with turbulent emotions. For example, many people who have had significant shadow people experiences can link them to states of emotional upheavals, such as anger, sadness, loneliness, and so forth.
Other people may be psychically open in such a way as to perceive shadow people more easily than others. Some haunted places where shadow people are prevalent, such as the Waverly Hills Sanitorium where thousands of people died, may be permeated with thought-forms of negative emotions.

OLD MAN OF THE WILD
If you walk the country lanes of Wiltshire, you may find yourself in the company of a bent old man with bright eyes and a weathered face. He will offer to show you the hidden byways of the county that few can see, and to tell you the true names of the trees and the flowers and the birds which will enable you to control them. If you ask him his name, he will tell you that it is Lob, or Lob-lie-by-the-fire or Jack Cade, Jack Smith, Jack Moon, poor Jack of every trade, Young Jack, or old Jack, or Jack What-d’ye-call, Jack-in-the-hedge, or Robin-run-by-the-wall, Robin Hood, Ragged Robin, or lazy Bob.
And he will laugh, and his merry eyes will twinkle.
Decline his offer. He has many names, many, many names.. You may know some of them, and others belong to civilisations long lost to history, and buried in the sands. He buried some of them.
Do not tell him your own name.

ASTERIX AND OBELIX: THE MIDDLE KINGDOM
Last night, I watched "Asterix & Obelix: The Middle Kingdom." on Netflix.
It's a live action family comedy adventure film based on the French comic albums originally created in 1959. This film is actually based on an original story and not adapted by the stories.
I have always been a huge fan of Asterix and Obelix since I was a young kid, and this is the first time I've seen a live action version of the characters, even if this is the fifth film in the franchise.
It's a good and funny film if you're a fan of the characters and you know the humour behind them.
Now, as for the slight bad points to this film, The "English" dubbing is horrendous, A mix of EastEnders meets Carry On OTT horrendous dub and it does slightly make it harder to enjoy the film, you do get distracted by it.
Other points are that the actor who portrays Asterix should have been a lot smaller and he was not as brave as the comic book character is.
The story was alright and they did a good job with the humous names of the newer characters from China.
I actually liked it and I will look out for the other movies on streaming if I can.
I shall rate this flick a score of 6/10.

STARFLEET ON THE SEA!
The USS Ursula NCC-TX07
The Ursula's dedicated design and mission is to Find, Assess, and report on alien aquatic life-forms on any planets deemed suitable for aquatic life.
The Ursula has the unique ability to both sail on the surface or routinely separate the saucer from the rest of the ship and submerge for low clearance deep water expeditions and deployment of her many smaller shuttles, subs, and unmanned probes.
The Ursula has two fully functioning bridges at a single given time so that both sections can be independently utilized for many different uses.
Both sections of the ship are capable of impulse flight in space and on the surface, but she can only reach warp speed when paired.
With a single aft low profile nacelle she originally was only capable of reaching warp 2. But after some tinkering from the starfleet engineering division, she can now reach warp 5.
Specs:
Crew compliment: -250
Weapon Systems:
-Phase cannons
-Photon torpedoes x4
-multi-phasic mining lasers
Hangar capacity:
-standard starfleet shuttles x2
-specially outfitted deep sea exploration shuttles. x10
-Larger cloakable deep sea observation subs x2
-scientific unmanned probes x20

MUZ
Though originally named after the Celtic word for marsh (muz), old legends claim the Flemish Muziekbos (Music Forest) is populated by werewolves, witches, and elves, and that mystical organ music can be heard at night.

KIDS VS. ALIENS
I've just watched this B-movie science fiction horror movie which is based on the short, titled "Slumber Party Alien Abduction" from found footage horror anthology sequel V/H/S/2.
It is loud, gory, very bright, and funny!
The down side is the length of the film at 1hr 15 mins long, it could have been a bit longer with a decent budget.
The kids are sweary brats which I did not mind as they were also intelligent in their dealings with the bullies and the Alien invaders. The bullies deserved everything they get in the film and thr older sister can kick ass with the best of them, wielding what looks like the Sword of Omens! The aliens were your typical Grey kind but taller with claws, but if you suffer from flashing lights and noises, look away at certain parts or you will get blinded! lol
The ending was very brutal which surprised me and the gore was fantastic!
I just wish this had a bigger budget. There are talks of doing a sequel which would be good.
I shall rate this flick a score of 6/10 B-movie goodness!

THE WATER DWELLERS
The Dýfan-Đešee
This is a small teaser of a community project I hope you all will welcome, the project will start tomorrow and will hopefully help to make the creative juices flow and help to give you a lot of inspiration and content.
The Dýfan-Đešee or in our language, the people of the water, can trace their origin back to the coast of Īvičh northeast of this world. They are a small gray-skin group of people who like to take things as they come and like to say "Like the tide, everything has a beginning and an end"
The Dýfan-Đešee have a deep fascination with water and especially the sea and even before they learned to hunt they had learned to build kayaks.
The Dýfan-Đešee worship the water spirits en according to their legends, it was a water spirit that led the first Dýfan-Đešee to these shores and they have been worshiping these spirits ever since.
Due to their fascination with water and their worship of the water spirits, most Dýfan-Đešee live along rivers and coasts, either in small clay huts or in large kayaks which means they are not tied to one place, but can move wherever the water takes them, this also means that the population is spread over a large area at a time.
This is a small teaser of a community project I hope you all will welcome, the project will start tomorrow and will hopefully help to make the creative juices flow and help to give you a lot of inspiration and content.
The Dýfan-Đešee or in our language, the people of the water, can trace their origin back to the coast of Īvičh northeast of this world. They are a small gray-skin group of people who like to take things as they come and like to say "Like the tide, everything has a beginning and an end"

THE MOTHER
I've just finished watching this very cliché action thriller on Netflix starring Jennifer Lopez as "The Mother" hellbent on protecting her daughter she gave up 12 years previously from some real bad Men.
You know they are bad, as the leader is British! Geez what a load of claptrap! The film is very badly written and directed by a Woman. so your typical action film where a mother figure must protect a young girl and form a relationship with her whilst teaching her how to fight back from the Menfolk.
The scenery was nice, as you get to see the snowy landscapes of Alaska, but the action scenes were dumb and boring.
I had trouble staying awake but I managed it and I was not impressed.
I shall rate this film a score of 4/10. it's not worth it folks!

THE NIGHT AGENT
This afternoon, we finished watching this incredibly awesome action thriller series on Netflix.
It's based on the novel by the same name. It became so popular quite quickly on Netflix, that it got renewed for a second season within days of it coming out.
The story has so many twists that we could not figure out who was good or bad.
It was well written and well acted that we both really enjoyed it.
I shall rate this series a score of 10/10. It was worth it.

DON'T MEDDLE WITH THE DARK
Don’t Meddle With The Dark is a public information film made in the early 1970s but only shown once. This film was meant to warn children about the dangers of meddling with the occult, and to stay away from ouija boards and seances and hunting ghosts in out of the way places. It was filmed in typical public information film style, with child actors unknowingly heading towards horrors, and a stern voice warning about the dire things that could happen to them, and for the characters in the film, certainly would.
Unfortunately the occult symbols that a set designer painted on the wall were inspired by those he had seen in the most vivid dream that he had ever experienced, although he did not know that he was not the dreamer. When the first broadcast was transmitted to millions of homes in the north-west region it amplified the power of the symbols and opened a gate through which something came.
In the houses of the viewers televisions fuzzed and growled something that wasn’t speech, lightbulbs fizzed and flickered, doors that were open shut and doors that were shut came open, and the air felt thick with a charge, as if lightning were just about to strike, and although the picture on the TV had frozen, there seemed to be a cloud of smoke moving across it.
A particular government department spent much of the next week and the lives of four people returning what had come through the gate to where it came from, and it ensured that the tape was destroyed. There are rumours though, that a copy of the tape was made, and that it was passed on from hand to hand, and eventually digitised, and that now there’s a video with a nondescript title made up of numbers and letters sitting on Youtube, waiting to be discovered. It’s only had seven views, which isn’t enough to open the gate again. It is not known how many would be.
But best not share it. Just in case.

MAN VS. BEE
I've just finished watching this British comedy series on Netflix.
It's only 9 episodes long and each one ends on a cliffhanger.
It stars Rowan Atkinson as a hapless house sitter who is being annoyed by a bumblebee who is causing his life chaos.
It is very funny and his character is more "Human" than Mr. Bean was.
I shall rate this series a score of 6/10.

THE LINCOLN LAWYER SEASON 1
Last night, i finished binge watching "The Lincoln Lawyer" series on Netflix.
It's a spin-off of the movie starring Matthew McConaughey, but with a different cast of actors and it's also closer to the book series, including the lead character's ethnic heritage.
The story is really good, with a lot of twists and it is well written and acted.
Good news is there will be a second season later this year.
I do have a liking for Lawyer thrillers/dramas as long as ot's a good story.
I shall rate this first season a score of 9/10.

IZOMBIE SEASON 1 AND THE FIRST 10 EPISODES OF SEASON 2
The other day we watched season 1 of IZombie on Netflix.
We loved it so much that we binge watched half of season 2 as well until we found out that the series has been removed from Netflix which is a bugger as we now can not watch the rest of the series and we don't know where we can watch it for free now.
Anyway, apart from the stumbling block, the series was very funny and well written and acted.
The series is very loosely based on a comic book series of the same name.
I will rate this season and a half of season 2 a score of 9/10.
I need to find the rest to watch for free.

THE BAD BATCH SEASON TWO
Yesterday we finished watching season 2 of Star Wars: The Bad Batch on Disney+
It was such a better season this time with more focus on what is happening to the remains of the Clone Troopers and Clone Force 99 aka The Bad Batch.
There is a lot of conspiracies and twists in this season which was good, this is one of the better animated series in the Star Wars universe.
I shall rate this season a score of 7/10.

REMEMBERING THE MINDER!
Today we mark the one year anniversary of the passing of the legendary British actor, Dennis Waterman.
THE LINCOLN LAWYER
Last night, I watched this very cool Legal Thriller on Film4.
I have heard good things about it, but it has never been shown on TV before where I live.
The cast of actors are amazing as is the story and twists, It's based on a series of novels starring the main character played by Matthew McConaughey.
They have made a spin off TV series, which I need to find on streaming somewhere.
I shall rate this film a score of 9/10.

LILO AND STITCH
This afternoon, I was introduced to this really awesome movie on Disney+
I've never seen this film before, despite the fact it first came out in 2002. Candy had and she loved it, so we watched it together and it was wonderful.
Very funny and cool animation, and I recognise a lot of myself in the alien character of Stitch, and Candy is very Lilo in her style and manners.
I loved it and I am looking forward to watching the other films and TV series in the franchise.
I will rate this movie a score of 9/10.

WE ARE NOT FREE!
The Human Race has never been free, from the moment we are registered at birth, we become a property of the government.
FREAKY
This afternoon, we watched this very cool horror slasher comedy film on Netflix.
It stars Vince Vaughn as the slasher killer who with a mystical dagger accidently swaps bodies with a teenage girl in Highschool.
It's a horror version of "Freaky Friday or The Hot Chick."
It is a tad bit gory which I liked and very funny, Vaughn does a good impression of a teenage girl in this, even with the running and his hands out like a little girl.
The film is directed by the same bloke who directed my other favourite horror comedy films - "Happy Death's Day 1&2, and Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse."
I really liked this film, and I will watch this again.
I shall rate this flick a score of 9/10.

ROYAL SCUM
I don't know who is the worse scum of the UK - The Tory Party or The Royal Family.
And we have millions of starving and homeless Children, Women, and Men who need the help, the money, and the food, while this rich nonce is parading around London like a Demi-God!
They have already moved the homeless people off the streets and removed them from hotels so the sad sycophants have somewhere to worship the so-called King, and not be bothered with the real sights of our society!
Watching Netflix instead I think, as I'm not having any of this Royal bullshit on the TV!
It's also a good way for real news items to be hidden on this day instead.
