Some more adventures, outdoors this time:)

Long weekends are for relaxing and a bit of - hiking.

Welcome to Kathleen Lake:

We are all quite tired today.
Kara is limping a bit; not sure if this was too much or if she "just" hurt herself adventuring on her own... I have to be more careful in future!

Infinity War gif that ...

...breaks your heart:

Last round of press?

sam80853 — Sun, 29 Apr 2018 01:44:07 GMT

Finding out actually scares me

My former place of work is up for sale which now explains so many things.
Looks like I made it out in time not knowing if all employees will keep their job after the sale...

There was a H50 Big Bang on AO3 that I missed and need to catch up to, after I finished "Ready Player One" and "The Dresden Files" I started re-reading. So much to do and not enough time:)

I quite enjoyed the Spielberg movie, not knowing anything about it at all.
The trailer didn't give me any idea of what this was about; stormymouse, as helpful as always, told me about the book and urged me to go see it. Thanks stormymouse! I'm sure I missed a lot of 80's references I now cathc up to reading the book.

Harry Dresden will be back in July! YAY! Which prompt me to re-read all 15 books before the new one comes out. LOL... Do I reallt think I'm going to make it?!

How is everyone?

Total overload...

sam80853 — Sun, 18 Feb 2018 20:55:18 GMT

Everything you heard about this movie is correct.

I loved it. Start to finish!

Women power. Shuri is most awesome of them all, I think:)

Star Wars, Who, X-Files

Happy New Year to you!
May it be a good one!

Some fanish ramblings here:

I so was not impressed by Star Wars. Really not.
It isn't a bad movie by all means but quite a few flaws in my humble opinion. Foremost Kylo Ren: I don't see a shred of Han & Leia in this tantrum throwing baby. None.
How can he be related to two of the bravest people in the universe?
I have to admit though that I was buying into the whole Rey turning Kylo thing. If anyone can do it it would be her.
Hux is just - blergh. Shoot the guy already. He is not adding anything to the story.
Luke - what the hell did they do to him?!?
Yoda, nice touch to bring him back. I was really happy about that:)
Great action and humour. Now we have to wait how it all unfolds...

Peter Capaldi's swan song.
I thought his regeneration was way better than Matt Smith's. I should have been in tears with that one but - no, nothing. I was very disappointed. No tears this time around either but I think Twelve was not that kind of Doctor. Not really.
Let's see what Thirteen has in stock for us.

Oh man, The X-Files.
Really? You seriously want to make me believe that William is not Mulder's son? After everyhting we have been through? No! Absolutely not. I hope they lying bastard is - lying.

Go and see Jumanji!!!

Oh, I've got sucked into Bones. Never watched the show when it was on but now I cannot stop. HELP!

It is raining.

In December!

Gone all this prettiness:

Quite sad, really...

13th Doctor

sam80853 — Sat, 11 Nov 2017 22:46:50 GMT

I'm not sure what people are going on about. I think the costume is brilliant.

SMASH

sam80853 — Sat, 11 Nov 2017 22:44:09 GMT

Thor Raknarok was pretty darn awesome!

I'm really happy for Chris Hemsworth is finally having a great movie with Thor; he so deserves it.

Some outdoor action

sam80853 — Sat, 04 Nov 2017 23:46:23 GMT

I went outside way too late to catch the full thing, darn! Still...

The Dark Tower by...

sam80853 — Sun, 22 Oct 2017 21:23:14 GMT

...Stephen King.

I finally finished the series or what there is so far - primroseburrows just mentioned that there maye be another book in works - and I enjoyed the hell out of this epic story. Calling it entertaining would be an understatement, really.
So much detail, so much -- everything. Emotions. I got quite attached to my gunslingers and it broke my heart to lose them.
I cried like a baby and cursed Stephen King quite a few times. But, in the end, it was all worth it. Even the end makes perfect sense to me, even though I've heard people screaming about it. But, really, how else could it have ended? Ka is a wheel and it's always turning.

Long days and pleasant nights, my friends!

Niceeeeeeee...

Benedict at TIFF

sam80853 — Mon, 11 Sep 2017 00:24:09 GMT

Puppies first, obviously...

Remember this show?

sam80853 — Sun, 20 Aug 2017 22:30:15 GMT

I feel the sudden need to watch this but, of course, it's nowhere to be had...:(

Good Omens

sam80853 — Sat, 19 Aug 2017 21:15:51 GMT

It is happening, finally. And I'm beyond happy to learn the David Tennant will be Crowley... I mean, until they announced the casting I didn't even know/realize that he's perfect for the role:). Funny how that goes sometimes...

The Musical Ride is on its coast to coast journey and today they were here, yay! Of course I had to go and see it - Fraser would have been proud:)
