After starting this series in Lockdown #1 in Canada and finishing it in Lockdown #3 in England, I can finally say I've seen the Sopranos. What a great TV show!
The Sopranos was always one of those shows that felt a bit intimidating to start since it's so long - and so often talked about - but I really d...

Looking for a new TV show? We just watched The Flight Attendant! It's a little bit trashy and a little bit ridiculous, but it's pretty fun, too. It was originally a novel - which makes a lot of sense - but it's not bad as a TV show!
Sometimes you just need a series that's a bit silly.
Anyone...

Looking for a new spookem? Give The Vigil a try! It's so eery and unsettling and takes place all in one home (I personally love films that get away with just one location).
It's straight to the point, great jump scares and a different type of plot/spookem than I've seen before! All in all, I'd def...

One of my favourite crime/mystery films growing up was the Bone Collector - a real personal favourite! This year we join Denzel Washington back hunting a serial killer and I loved him in The Little Things!
This film was originally written in the early 90s, and it does feel pretty 90s, but I enjoyed it a...

Have you seen The Nest?? I really enjoyed it! I went into it knowing nothing other than Jude Law was in it and it might be a slow burn. Overall I thought it was incredible! Wonderful acting and a story that I think a lot of people can pull from.
I think it's a little bit misleading being labele...

I watched Escape from Pretoria (available on Amazon Prime) and my stomach HURT by the end! The story follows the true story of anti-apartheid activists trying to escape prison - lots of anxiety, lots of tension, I was so clammy by the end of it.
It's not the best movie, but it's a good movie. I didn't k...

Sorry for double PO Box videos, but I wanted to make sure you guys saw this cool stuff before it gets featured in Tuesday's video!
Thank you all again for so many wonderful gifts! As I was exporting this, two more packages arrived lol I'm so blessed

Recently I watched News of the World and it was fine! It felt like a typical Tom Hanks film but nothing too special. It's certainly worth a watch if you can get your hands on it. It was going to cost my mum $20 to rent it back in Ontario - definitely not worth that price tag!
I'd say a solid 3/5 T...

It's been good! And the book is really witty with lots of dead-pan humour, but I haven't been ...

Hey guys!
I thought you might be interested in seeing the clips and footage that we shot when filming "How Can you Tell When You're In a British Village"! Since a YT #short can only be 60 seconds or less, there's a lot of footage that gets deleted and never seen again!
Hope you enjoy!

This week I dived into one of my birthday presents and made some pottery!! It went as well as you might have guessed!
What have you guys been up to lately?

Just to let you know guys, PO Box ~mysterious packages~ have arrived! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
The plan right now is I'm going to film/open stuff as they arrive and collate the clips into one Patreon video. Originally I was going to wait until enough stuff arrived to fill a video and open it all at once, b...

Happy birthday to me!
Here's some of the gifts I received for my birthday and what I got up to in lockdown! For all of us celebrating our second lockdown birthday - I feel you!
Here's the markers I mentioned
A movie that is certainly not for everyone, I recently watched Saint Maud. Personally, I thought it was great! A real psychological thriller with a really interesting plot. Great acting, great story, but certainly not one I would recommend for my mother!
Spookems!
You can rent this one on Amazon P...

Recently I watched the new thriller Run and I loved it! It's nerve-wracking with incredible acting and a really interesting story! I really enjoyed it a lot!! Plus it's not often that you see a main character who uses a wheelchair.
I don't want to spoil any of the story, so I'll just say that it's a gre...

You might have seen Amazon Prime advertising their new movie I Care A Lot - I hated it! I get that it's supposed to be a "black comedy" but it's about a woman who exploits and abuses vulnerable people and has very little comedy about it. It felt so strange. At one point we were going to turn it off, but I fel...

I watched Another Round and I LOVED IT.
Starring Mads Mikkelsen, this Danish film comes with subtitles but it was unbelievable. I don't think it should be categorised as a "comedy" but it was so heartbreaking and such a raw look at life and how sometimes it gets away from us!
I loved t...

2021-02-27 10:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostThis month I finished reading Zoey Punches the Future in the Dick by David Wong!
It's a very "David Wong" title and was a very "David Wong" book!
While it wasn't my favourite novel by him, it was certainly fine. A solid 3/5 I think. I reaaaallllly loved his previous books in the "John Dies at the ...

Our last family dog was Jack, a giant Labradoodle. Last time I was back in Ontario, I raided my mum's computer for old photos and found these (time-stamp included! I don't think she knows how to turn that off of the camera).

Recently I watched Jungleland and it was OK! Nothing super surprising or different, just an average movie! It follows two bothers in poverty - there's boxing, some organised crime and some stereotypical plot points. 3/5 for me. Maybe 2.5/5.
Has anyone else watched this yet? The poster makes me sad "in s...
