Film Progress #1


Films are one of those media's I don't have time to enjoy as much these days. I'm some one who hates to be sat still for long periods or time and I enjoy doing many things at once. To watch a film isn't a bad thing, I just don't do it as often.


However, when watching a film with someone, it's always fun.

Lately I was able to start making a list of films to watch through and much like my 'Anime Progress' I wanted to share it with you. This will be in the same format as 'Anime Progress' so, let's get started. 

Recently finished: Fight Club

I was crying at the end of this, I was just that happy.

Any normal person would tell you that they enjoyed this film or that maybe they didn't get it and so on. I have never seen Fight Club before until a few days ago after many people had told me to watch it. With no idea what it was about I jumped in thinking 'well, this better be good...'

I was shocked. 

Not only was the film good. It was beautiful. Stunning. Creative. Moving. Powerful and so much more. I can't even start to explain just how good a film it really is. From the prefect direction to the stunning and beautiful visuals, this film is in my top five of all time. I loved every minute of it. 

If you haven't seen this don't make the mistake I did and go and watch this right now!

About to watch: I'm a cyborg but that's ok

Don't worry, It has subs

She is a girl. He is a boy. She thinks she is a robot and he can steal souls. Within the walls of a mental ward, these two odd characters meet and soon love blooms.

I'm not even going to say anything else. It's meant to be a romantic comedy but as soon as I read 'She believe she is a robot' I was sold. Can't wait to watch this in the coming days. 


Next planned: Old Boy

Not one for the faint hearted, so I've heard

I've never seen this film but much like Fight Club many have told me to. With a story about vengeance and pain, suffering and blood, I'm sure this is one to enjoy. 

Old Boy is a South Korean film based on a manga which has been a running hit across the world. It's known across the world and labelled as one of the best films ever created. Knowing only a small bit about It and that everyone I know has seen It, I think It's about time I watch this epic.

This should be good. Mind you, It's brutal so It may not be a good one to watch at night...


Final thoughts: 

I'm still busy as ever finishing off college but I'm still feeling good and loving all the work I have to do. It's odd I know, I enjoy having lots to do. It's all fun stuff that I'm currently working on so It's ok.

Once I get this final coursework done and handed in, I can sit down and watch these films.


Good times.


Till next time, thanks for reading

Small break

As much as I don't want too, I'm going to have to take a small break.  The next three weeks are filled with exams and I didn't know just how much I have to do so, yeah. Busy busy.  I think rather then worring about keeping up with blog posts I will just leave it for the next few weeks and when I can, get some in a line ready to go out.  Sorry about this, I'll make up for it.  Now then. Time to hit these exams like a boss! 

Polarfox App review

This article was written for Yatta Magazine and Yatta Media and published on June 26th 2012 . Polarfox is a free desktop application for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux that lets you beautify, save and multi-post images to social networks, blogs and clouds. If there was ever a product summary that made sense, it was Polarfox App. Just as it says on the label, this wonderful desktop application lets you take any image you so wish to edit and share with stunning results across the board. At the core, Polarfox App is a simple program with simple ideas. You have two sets of editing options open to you. You can edit the image itself right away with changes such as hue and saturation. But where the app really stands out is the use of the many available filters it has to offer. If you wanted me to sum this up in a few words I would say that “Polarfox App does for desktops, what Instagram does for mobile, but better”. However, summing up Polarfox App in a nutshell isn’t fair. So...

Snapshot Sunday #1

Snapshot Sunday for the dates of Sunday 25th March to Sunday 1st April.  It's been a an odd week. From being ill to have exams, it's all an up and down ride. Last Sunday was good mind you... I spent the day with friends out and about enjoying the sun for the first time this year. We are all photographers at heart and love just capturing the world around us. My camera is the one at the front of that picture, a Nikon D5000.  Let's talk about food.  Noodles and cake, how can you not enjoy them? I have an odd liking for taking pictures of food. I think it's due to my mindset as a creative person and wanting to share what I see with people.  Food is something anyone can understand, no matter what language you speak. What do you think? Editing, editing, editing...
