Flowers and Movies

Sunshine and temperatures in the upper forties this week had me thinking about flowers and the 78th Annual Golden Globe Awards airing this Sunday evening has me thinking about movies. As always, I'm behind on watching the first batch of nominees as we lead up to the Oscars in April. Many more movies to watch, but these would be my early votes. Nomadland - Best Motion Picture (Drama) Frances McDormand (Nomadland) - Best Actress (Drama) Chadwick Boseman (Ma Rainey's Black Bottom) - Best Actor (Drama) Hamilton - Best Motion Picture (Musical or Comedy) Rosamund Pike (I Care a Lot )- Best Actress Musical or…

What I Watched: February 2021

* I do not own the photographs on this post. They are free photos from Pexel* I have been thinking about writing posts like this for a while now. The biggest thing holding me back from actually doing them was the issue of needing a visual element. Now I’ve always been the type of blogger who takes their own photos and I would never use a screenshot of a film/tv show for this. Which led me to utter confusion on what I could do that wouldn’t be infringing on copyright laws. The answer to that? Honestly, I don’t know. I…

40 Winks: Cancelled N64 Platformer Now on Steam

Back in 1998, we saw a tiny preview in N64 Magazine for a platformer called 40 Winks. Then... we never heard of it again. Until Piko Interactive woke it up! 40 Winks on the N64 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZGNQtSTAY0 American developer Piko Interactive specialise in taking old games and making them available again. It's already managed to do this with Glover on the N64. Back in 2018, the team began work on an obscure, missing platformer from the N64's library. To gee-up retro gamers, it even teased this on Twitter. Something is happening... pic.twitter.com/CNm4GuALyi — PIKO (@Pikointeractive) January 30, 2018 GT Interactive was…

5 Ways to Turn Mediocre Mondays into Majestic Mondays | Leverage Ambition

"I hate Mondays," said a co-worker as he came into work and sat down with an awfuly grumpy plop. "Ugh, me too," I said to myself. "Let's get some coffee," he said. "Great," I said. I absolutely hated Mondays in my old position, and can give you a million reasons why. Some included that our product was sub-par, the people were miserable and heavily medicated, and no one seemed to care or have pride in what they were doing.

ARC REVIEW (& EXTRACT): Daughters of Night

What Did I Think? I would have never considered myself a lover of historical crime fiction but here I am, having read two of Laura Shepherd Robinson's books now and I think it's slowly becoming one of my favourite genres. And that is well and truly a result of LSR's descriptive narratives and how she slowly builds tension, drama and suspense throughout her books. 'Daughters of Night' isn't really a sequel as such to her first book 'Blood and Sugar' but it does include similar characters, the main one being Caroline Corsham. After witnessing the brutal murder of a local/well-known…

Veggies, Flowers, and Forbidden Love

It's nineteenth century. India is under British colonial rule. The high Brahmin priest Nilakantha, secretly leading Hindus to perform sacred rites forbidden by the British, rages against the foreign opression.

A priestess herself, Lakmé is splendidly decked out in gorgeous Indian jewellery. As a sensible girl, she doesn't want to lose it in water, so she removes all this stuff - lots of it! - and neatly places it on a bench. Off…

Ginny & Georgia Review - Goes From Fun To Frustrating

Lured by a wittily edited trailer, I ended up binge-watching the new Netflix show 'Ginny & Georgia' in less than 24 hours and sort of regretted investing all that time into it. I am one of those losers who feels compelled to finish what they started, thank technology for the 'fast-forward' button though. 'Ginny Miller, an angsty fifteen-year-old, often feels more mature than her thirty-year-old mother, the irresistible and dynamic Georgia Miller.' - reads the description of the 10-episode show directed by Saraha Lampert. The first few episodes were clever, entertaining, introducing us to Georgia (Brianne Howey), who loses a…

KPOP girl group 'Brave Girls' enjoy belated success on music charts with 'Rollin'

K-pop act Brave Girls are basking in belated music chart success with their song, "Rollin'," which was released four years ago. The song has dominated the real-time charts of major streaming platforms, including Bugs and Genie, as of Tuesday afternoon. This is the first time the group has accomplished such a feat since its debut in 2011. The EDM track's belated popularity largely stems from a video posted Feb. 24 on the YouTube channel named "VIDITOR." The three-minute clip ― which features the online users' comments on their "Rollin'" performances ― went viral, attracting more than 3.8 million views as…
