Book Review: "Heavy Weather" ed. by Kevin Manwaring
Full Title: Heavy Weather: Tempestuous Tales of Stranger Climes edited by Kevan Manwaring The collection entitled British Library Tales of the Weird sounds like it should have criteria of how it is organised and written. So far, we have seen short introductions about the author, the work and where it was published first before each tale and, though they can get in the way of the excitement for a good story, they are often very informative and well-written. Here we see the editor move away from that and either go straight into the story, have a short and uninspiring introduction to it or even put some rambling mess at the end which is also not very well written. It breaks the continuity of the series and more than often, breaks the feeling you are getting from reading the book. This plus the fact that the stories are not exactly Tales of the Weird makes this one of the worst edited books I have read in the anthology so far. Let's stop with the negativity for a second to look at the good stories that were provided within.

Well Disney’s latest movie, Wish, has been released and I have thoughts. Now if you’ve read any of my other Disney related content then you already know that I judge the quality of a Disney movie almost entirely based on the music. We will get to that. Overall I think Disney had the perfect story, cast and emotion to celebrate 100 years of hope, dreams and magic. I think they took that perfection and drowned it in a sea of AI generated music.

We also know that I am the indication of quality for superhero movies so here we go we are ranking the superhero movies of 2023 from worst to best.
Alexandrea CallaghanPublished 6 days ago in Geeks'Doctor Who': "Audacity" Review
If there’s a Doctor that’s benefited from the myriad of spin-off media that’s grown up around Doctor Who, it’s Paul McGann’s Eighth Doctor. Comics, novels, and especially the Big Finish audio dramas have given the one time self-described “George Lazenby of Doctor Who” a chance to be far more than a once and done incarnation. Something that has seen McGann grow and find new facets to his performances over the last two decades. Which makes it fitting that the eighth Doctor has returned to his Big Finish roots a bit for his latest set of adventures, Audacity.

Kristy AndersonPublished 7 days ago in GeeksMovie Review: "Killers of the Flower Moon" (2023)
I saw this film on the 9th of November, 2023. I think it was everyone's first instinct when going to see this movie to make sure you had: a) eaten something, b) used the bathroom, c) had at least a bottle of water and some snacks with you, d) wore something comfortable, especially if you were going to be sitting down for 4 hours or so and e) made sure you had enough phone battery to call a taxi to get you home. I have to admit the planning that I had to do when going to see this movie seemed a bit on the extreme side but, in the end it was all pretty much worth it.
