X-men: Days of Future Past

So on Monday I went to Cambridge to see the new X-men film. Now obviously, there'll be some spoilers but I'll try to keep to a minimum.

Firstly, Wow! What a movie! I thought everything was done fantastically, the pacing and performance of everyone was brilliant. This is easily the best X-men film out of all of them....so far! (Hidden scene at the end, has easily made me want to go see the next one.)

I wasn't expecting this film to impress me, after the horribleness of Last Stand and the Dark Phoenix story arc. (And I thought New Class wasn't that great....well, okay apart from Jennifer Lawrence, but I don't really have to explain why...). However, the fact that I enjoyed The Wolverine, I had to go give it a try (and the fact Jennifer was back in it, had nothing to do with my reason to go see it...honest!)

However, as you can tell, I was really impressed with the Film. Wasn't too over keen with the Sentinel Design (more purple, and taller please!), however, they were used really well.

Really liked all scenes with Evan Peter's Quicksilver. Although, I thought he was going to be used a lot more.

The same can be said for a lot of the Future X-men. Iceman, Shadowcat (Hmmm, Ellen Page), Colossus, Sunspot, Blink (Can't wait to see the other four films that she'll be in!), Bishop, and Warpath. I don't think many got enough story time. Yes, they did a lot of fight scenes, but it would have been interesting to see more of a story. Although, if Fan Bingbing, is written into another four films as Blink, then I hope they'll bring some of these new mutants back too. Although, this is the problem with using such a big world of marvel comics, there is sooo many people to choose from.

Anyway, back to the movie. Yes, you should see it. It has opened a lot of interesting questions up as of timelines, but it's comics and this sort of thing happens all the time. Hopefully, the next film will answer some questions, and leaves us for more. If you haven't seen it yet, you shouldn't be reading this blog! Go now!.

I'm awake!


Rebooting systems.....System start.

 It's been a long time since I tried to start this, and I want to blog more. I'm going to blog more!! (Honestly, you can slap me if needs be)
So let's start with what's happened since last time I blogged. 

  1. Well, I've fallen in love, and felt heart break as she broke up with me.
  2. I've travelled to Japan, with my Martial Arts Group to train with Soke Masaaki Hatsumi. Also, I currently hold the title of 3rd Dan in Bujinkan Ninjutsu.
  3. We've witnessed a fantastic "Doctor" from Matt Smith in Doctor Who, and it'll be sad to see him leave at the end of the year (more about that later.) 
  4. Great load of films were released.
  5. Great load of video games were released.
And now let's look to the future.


  1. Peter Capaldi is THE DOCTOR! Really looking forward to see what he brings to Doctor Who. 
  2. Hopefully will plan another trip to Japan.
  3. Pokemon X/Y are soon to be released, as is Assassins Creed Black Flag! Both look like they'll be amazing!
  4. So many great films from the Hobbit, to Avengers 2!
  5. Playstation 4
  6. Agents of Shield starts soon!
  7. I can't think of a Six!

Well, I've been thinking and writing for an hour, so I'll post this and see you all soon.
