#2 The Prestige

A pleasant surprise and currently one of my favourites.

I've seen The Prestige multiple times now and I could turn it on and watch it right now again without getting bored. It features two rival stage magicians (played by Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale) competing to create the ultimate illusion and to which lengths each of them is willing to go to achieve it. The film starts off strong and just keeps improving all the way until the end. I can honestly say the first time I watched it, the plot twists kept surprising me over and over again.

So if you ever get a chance to watch this masterpiece, you should definitely do so. It's also one of the few films out there featuring magicians and magic tricks so that's a nice bonus.

I'll be watching some Community, a comedy TV series, later tonight I think so expect another blog post later today!

Greek (TV series): Legacy.

Legacy. (Series finale)

Ahh, Greek.
One of my favourite drama series come to an end. I watched this last episode with mixed feelings, to be honest. It's always sad to see a TV series you liked end but feels like it was time for Greek. I don't think they could have gotten much more out of it and it was good while it lasted.

Im pretty satisfied with this last episode. Feels like all loose ends are tied up and that everything came together in the end. Im pleased that one of my favourite TV couples ended up together in the end.
I'll miss having my Monday portion of Kappa Tau's epic partying.

The Kappa Tau crest, one of the fraternities in the series.


For those of you that have never seen or heard about Greek, it's basically a series that follows the life of a bunch of college students and their sorrorities/fraternities.

#1 Pan's Labyrinth

Time to get started then.

I watched this with a friend of mine after having postponed watching it for the longest time. Why did I postpone it? Simply put, the language. Pan's Labyrinth (also called El laberinto del fauno) is a Spanish spoken film and I usually don't like movies in a foreign language.

Pan's Labyrinth is a pretty good, yet probably rather unknown, fantasy film. It wasn't quite what I expected as I thought it would contain much more fantasy elements, instead it also features a a period in Spain set five years after the Spanish Civil War.
The movie combines the storyline of a Fascist captain fighting Spanish Maquis and of his stepdaughter Ofelia who meets several magical creatures. One should note though that the whole film has a somewhat darker setting and that it's not just some happy go lucky movie.

All in all Pan's Labyrinth was a decent movie and I'd recommend it if you're a fan of the fantasy genre. If not, you best stay away from it because it'll probably not meet your demands.

Now I'm off to watch the Greek (TV Series) series finale. Another blogpost coming soon with what I thought of it.

Introducing Tieran

Hi,

I'm Tieran and I'm probably the most awesomest person you'll ever meet.
I have too much spare time on my hands so what better way to waste my time away
than to bother some of you with a blog of my own.

What to expect from this blog

Nothing.

Whatever expectations you may have about what a blog should be like, you're better off forgetting them.
I'll be "reviewing" any kind of movie/series/whatever the hell I watched. This can range from an insanely popular TV series to movies that only have a cult following. Basically just what I come across, you get the idea. Don't expect any fancy lingo either, I like to keep it casual so that's how I'll be doing things.



Myself

I hear it's popular to introduce yourself on these things. So how about I don't do that and just give you three random facts about me.

• As you could already have noticed, I like alliterations.
• I'm a huge sucker for binary jokes.

 First review will be up shortly. Stick around & follow if I peaked your interest.

Signed,
T.
