X-Men: First Class

I must say I was pleasantly surprised by this 5th installment of the franchise. It was both action packed and smartly presented, backed by a great script and cast. The Michael Vaughn film was a refreshing comeback to the X-Men series, and to the superhero movie genre on a whole, which seemed to be experiencing a creative drought recently. The prequel boasts a wide range of well known cast members,namely James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and January Jones(of Mad Men fame). Riddled with cameos that would make any fan boys jizz themselves, a touch of Mad Men, and a pinch of Inglorious Basterds, this film is definitely one of the best of the franchise, and of the year. Plus any film which features a soundtrack that enticing, accompanied by music from Edith Piaf, as well as an interesting flagship song(disclaimer: music video in link may contain spoilers), is worth watching in my book.

Arcade Fire: Scenes from the suburbs

I know I've been cheating on blogger with tumblr for a while now but I must admit that I do miss my blogging here. This was a great film called "Nassainces des pieuvres" or "water lilies"

The awesome song in the trailer is "trahison" by Vitalic

It's Almost Back!!!! :D

Sleigh Bells - Infinity Guitars

I must say this song grew on me....it definitely had to

Skins is back!!!

It's January and series five of Skins will be back with a bang, on the 27th at 10PM on E4. I surely know it will be better than that crap MTV calls Skins USA (complete ultimate failure and letdown). At least soon I'll have the UK version on the air again to keep my mind off of that. So heres to the fifth series and the third generation of Skins, let the unadulterated chaos begin.
