We saw this on the Australia Day holiday, just what one wants to see on a day when we’re celebrating the invasion of our country by ourselves…a movie about liberating a mountain. It was a great movie, lots of wonderful visual effects and fabulous stunts. There are always things we ...

It’s the end of the world as we know it. It’s the end of the world as we know it. It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine…fine… R.E.M. Armageddon is THE convention to attend if you’re interested in meeting stars from TV and ...
LA was a wonderful experience. It was our first brief stop in America and our last not-so-brief stop. At first we only had a few hours there so to help with our jetlag and also to get ourselves started with our phones we walked into the nearest shopping centre (took ...
We’re gonna be The Producers! I don’t write about every time I go out but it does look like it as I don’t go out very often. Last night was a special night as I’d managed to acquire tickets for the preview night of The Producers by JYM theatre co. ...
Last night I finally got to join the masses and watch The Hobbit movie on the big screen. Not sure how many ways I can say ‘I love it’ so I hope you’re counting although I will try to be balanced. There are many differences to the book and some ...
Here’s a few more pictures, same rules apply, when I can identify them I do and when I can’t I don’t guess. Some of them are just amazing and others blow my mind. There’s one really unexpected one and I’ll let you find it. Not sure if we’ll be getting ...
The book was written by Enid Bagnold in 1935 and filmed in 1944 only nine years later (just proving I can do the maths), MGM billed it as a ‘heart drama’. There are many differences between the book and film as there almost always are and I can tell you ...
Yes, I need that many, and more, exclamation marks. I’ve been waiting most of my life for movies that don’t follow the norm. You know what norm is in horror or thriller movies where the hero/heroine survives and often saves someone else while everyone else dies. The hero/heroine is generally ...
Snowy? Someone must have taken Squid Ink to see The Adventures of Tintin, I plead not guilty to that offence. He enjoyed it thoroughly as you can tell. It was a great movie and I thoroughly enjoyed the epic sword fight, I do wonder if it’s possible to do that ...
Squid Ink Goes Around the World in Eighty Days Way back when I was much younger than the 18 years I profess to be, we used to visit the Drive In Cinema at Tooronga on the on corner of Toorak and Tooronga Roads. Back then it was a shopping centre ...
I was invited to a media screening of Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue, I took with me a good friend and her young son. They’re in the right demographic and didn’t want to go alone. I’m not excited at attending movies by myself, I’ve done it on occasion ...
The Man From U.N.C.L.E. was originally a television adventures series first released in 1964. The books followed fairly close behind starting in 1965. They were a wonderful series full of tongue in cheek references, humour and great actors. Ian Fleming had a big hand in developing this series and there ...
