American Sniper (2014) Review
Queen and Adam Lambert – Newcastle 2015
Date: Tuesday 13th January 2015
Venue: Metro Radio Arena (Newcastle, UK)
The best thing about this concert had to be that it didn’t go on sale a year in advance it was a couple of months before the actual date. Which I think should be done more often as you don’t have to wait as long for the gig to actually happen. The very well done performance on New Year’s Eve was at a prime time just a couple of weeks before the UK leg of the European tour started. Newcastle was the opening night of the Tour which again made it even more exciting!
Wild (2014) Review

Musical Moments – Agony (Into the Woods)
After seeing ‘Into the Woods‘ on Friday it has many different engaging songs and moments. So I had to do this post about ‘Agony’ what a mixed up scene and somehow very sexy as the two Prince’s are splashing about in the water. Are Disney really linked in with this film?

Sondheim’s musical takes a twist on the Brothers Grimm fairy tales, with plenty of well-known characters like you have never seen them before.
They Came Together (2014) Review
A film where a story is told about a story. Yes you read that right, this film pokes fun at romantic comedies yet is one itself . . .
BAFTA 2015 – Nominations
The nominations for the 2015 BAFTA awards have been announced this morning and i have to say I am pretty impressed with the choices. Some are probably a little bit of a shock but we must remember that a slight bias towards British actors and actresses is often shown with the BAFTAs not a bad thing in my opinion. Just showing that they appreciate our own talent. So far I have seen nearly all of the films, just a couple to catch up with. They come out over the next couple of weeks as well!
