WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers Given that it’s supposedly the most romantic day of the year tomorrow, why not have an article focused on couples? Now consider who’s writing this article – these aren’t going to be your romantic “lovey-dovey” couples. When people think of killer couples, I’m sure the first people that come …
Angel AKA Zoe Kravitz
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I mentioned previously about actors that have doubled up on Marvel characters (Chris Evans) and those that have made the transition from DC to Marvel (Ryan Reynolds). Well, Zoe Kravitz chose to go in the opposite direction – starting her superhero career as Angel in X-Men: First Class. I …
Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’m sure everyone has seen the little monkey statues covering their eyes, mouth and ears. Well, this isn’t about them. Without realising it, in places I have played on the original, Buddhist idea of the proverb, to avoid evil thoughts and deeds whereas some of these characters below lean …
Cnidophobia
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers In truth, this article was originally supposed to be two articles – Spheksophobia and Apiphobia – separating the fears of bees and wasps. However I thought it would be better to bring them together as the fear of being stung. Yes, I know I could have extended this to …
The Time of the Massacre
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers It’s a common thing for there to be an American remake of a foreign film, Ju-on and The Grudge for example, however it is very rare for this to happen the other way around. I’ve mentioned previously that this article was coming when I wrote my Indian Horror article …
Cyclops AKA James Marsden
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’m going to put this out there right from the start – I find James Marsden’s Cyclops so IRRITATING! In the first film it’s like watching the jealous boyfriend in a rom-com so I love the way Wolverine screws with him so often! It’s because of this that I’m …
A Christmas Carol Retellings
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers It’s that wonderful time of year again (well, yesterday but Boxing Day still counts as part of the Christmas holiday right?) and how has it taken me 5 years to talk about possibly the most adapted Christmas story? OK, I’ve never actually read Dickens’ A Christmas Carol but I’ve …
The Tale of Black and Red
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I’m going to be completely honest with you all, this article took me a couple of attempts to write as I found the whole thing extremely confusing, which I’m sure will become apparent as you read on. Ginger Snaps is probably up there with one of my favourite coming …
Singer to Actress: Mariah Carey
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers This probably is the most apt time of the year to write an article about Mariah Carey seeing as she is considered by most people as the Queen of Christmas. Notice how I said most people, because if I’m completely honest – I’m rather bored of the song. Anyway, …
Quicksilver AKA Evan Peters
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers It’s funny to that we actually had two Quicksilvers around the same time, only Evan Peter’s wasn’t part of the MCU until WandaVision when he oddly took up Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s mantle (still not quite clear why they did that, can’t actually remember if it was explained). Introducing the Quicksilver …
