TV: True Blood SE5 EP11

True Blood
Drama, Fantasy, Mystery


Are they imagining everything to do with Lillith? If not then why the hell is she telling both Bill (Stephen Moyer) and Salome (Valentina Cervi) that she chooses both of them? Or is it just their inner thoughts wishing that she had chosen them? If that's the case, then why did Bill run away from it? This is all terribly confusing.

Bill is being such an asshole! I hope Eric bashes that crap out of him. Poor Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) thought she had escaped from her highly religious family the first time around, only to end up stuck with a born-again Bill. I thought she was doing a great job of convincing him that she had bought into it, I almost thought Bill had fallen for it! Damn eh? 

I am so glad that Nora (Lucy Griffiths) has changed her tune and that Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) isn't really a Sanguinista. They are such lovely siblings... *snickers*

What a night for Jason (Aussie, Ryan Kwanten) too huh? Poor Jason. First some random supe is after his sister, then Jessica half tries to eat him and finally Russell (Denis O'Hare) glamours him to show him and Steve Newlin (Michael McMillian) where the Fairies are! Holy crapola!

What are the humans going to do? What does our military have up their sleeves? The Sheriff that Tara (Rutina Wesley) killed was Rosalyn's (Carolyn Hennesy) progeny? Didn't see that coming, but Pam (Kristen Bauer van Straten) handing herself over was expected; she's only trying to get to Eric and Eric and Nora have escaped but where have they gone? Don't worry though, Sam (Sam Trammel) and Luna (Janina Gavankar) are there.... Things are all over the place aren't they?

Who the hell is Warlow?!? And did you see Russell take out that Fairy Elder?! This episode is warming up to one hell of a season finale! Bring it!

She doesn't really sing does she, she talks. I suppose that makes her some sort of a poet. That's alarming because her spelling is atrocious."

Movie: Battleship (2012)

Battleship (2012)
Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi


This film should be called Battlesh#t, worst excuse for a movie ever! I heard that it was made semi in the image of ye ol' game of Battleship. Ie. You've sunk my Battleship (Can I get an award for saying Battleship a billion times in one post?)

There was a huge hoo-ha made about this film, I don't know why... maybe it's because it's Rihanna's (yes the singer...) first attempt at acting and boy was she terrible! Every time she came on screen I morphed into Chris Brown (another singer who tried to be an actor) and wanted to slap her silly. What is she doing? She falls so flat every time she says anything. I might just avoid every film she's in after this. Stick to singing RiRi!


I did get a little excited when I realised Alexander Skarsgard (True Blood) was in it! But then his Battleship got sunk and he was gone before the movie was halfway through! Pooey! God knows what they did for the other half of the film but it bored me silly!

And Taylor Kitsch.... I loved him in John Carter... this, not so much. Boring!

If you really want to watch it, just watch the last 10 minutes or so, that's the best bit...

TV; True Blood SE5 EP4

True Blood
Drama, Fantasy, Mystery


I've taken to watching True Blood on a Monday evening with my little sister-in-law, Cassie (who is just amazing, take a look at her youtube *fans self*) and then a few weeks later rewatching them with my mum, which I absolutely love! Cass and I swoon over Alexander Skarsgard and Joe Manganiello, while Mum and I giggle over every sobbing face we see. Seriously, how often do those actors have to put on the tears?!

I have to say that I've loved this series so far. I watched the first season and was hooked just the same as everyone else, and immediately ordered all the books - Yes, for those who haven't realized, I read as well! I own eight of the set and swear I read one every couple of days until I had caught up. Needless to say, if you have read the books, the show is slightly different.

Last season I knew what to expect, this season I'm not so sure. The return of Russell was expected but I thought he would have stayed in the ground longer. I wonder who pulled him out. I have to say that I half thought he'd clawed himself free of his cement grave and until Bill and Eric started searching for who had rescued him, the thought hadn't even occurred to me. Now I wonder, who do you think? Maybe one of the Authority? But who knew that Russell was there?

After seeing tonight's episode, it occurred to Cass and I that maybe this season would be about the Fairy War that happened in the books? Alcide seems to be on the right track with the pack, and the Fairy club might have been Claudes? Readers, what do you think?

What the hell is going on with the Authority? Have I forgotten something from the books? Its been a while since I read them so maybe I'm missing something. Are they meant to represent the entire hierarchy of Kings and Queens? I do have to admit that I want to see the Vampire conference happen, but is this supposed to be it? Stabler looks freaking fantastic dripping in blood though, doesn't he? *dreamy sigh*

Tara being a vampire and Pam being a maker; both thoughts are as crazy as the other! Tara hates vampires, obviously denying the nature of being one; while Pam is the flip-side, flaunts being a vampire and is actually a pretty good teacher as it turns out! I really have been enjoying her flashbacks though and the goodbye scene between her and Eric was touching. Eric is so swoon worthy!

And finally, Terry. There is little to no mention of him in the books and honestly, up until now, I didn't think he had a script worthy story line in his character... ha! Interesting! But supernatural? It would be more surprising if it wasn't!

I hate waiting a week for this show!
