Of Course Not Everybody Was Happy With The Ending To Mad Dogs...


From what I have read on Twitter lately there are a lot of people who aren't happy with how Mad Dogs ended. The majority of viewers seem to believe that the series was great up until the last two episodes leaving many people disappointed.

The Ending To Mad Dogs

If you haven't seen the finale to Mad Dogs yet please don't read on as I am about to discuss the ending.

Let me start by saying what a great series Mad Dogs has been! When I first started watching it I thought it would only be a short series about 4 friends who wind up in a whole lot of trouble when they get involved with drugs abroad, all thanks to their mate who invited them in the first place!

Where On Earth Is Carmen Sandiego?


Greetings! I hope you all had a great Christmas and that Sandy Claws was kind to you! I also wish you a Happy New Year!

So, Where On Earth Is Carmen Sandiego? Well to find out you'd have to go and watch this cartoon series that aired back in 1994. I'd never heard of this until a friend of mine brought it up in conversation and was quite surprised I'd never seen it. Fast forward a couple of weeks and I unwrapped the DVD containing the entire series from under my tree.

It feels like Christmas!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! That song has been in my head for weeks now and I can't stop singing it! I am well and truly in the Christmas spirit and have already been spoilt by close friends for Christmas and my birthday which happens to fall on Boxing Day.

The Muppet Christmas Carol


At this time of year there was really only one choice for a Christmas themed post and watching this film has been a festive tradition of mine for many years. 

The Muppet Christmas Carol is amazing and great fun. If any of you reading this haven't seen this film then you certainly have been missing out. This is probably my most watched film of all time and I have always been a huge Muppets fan! I originally had this film on VHS as a Christmas present back in the 90's and at first put it on for about 10 seconds and then turned it off! As I was so young I only liked watching cartoons at the time and threw a tantrum when I realised it was live action! Haha! Then it turned out to be one of my favourite ever films.

Why I stopped playing Mortal Kombat!

Most gamers have either heard of or played Mortal Kombat at least once in their lives which is known for it's unique characters and battles but most of all for its famous fatalities which you can perform once you defeat your opponent. It's a bit violent but all good fun right? Until someone takes it too far...

The Power Of Five


I first discovered Anthony Horowitz when I started reading his Alex Rider series a few years back and I quite enjoyed his style of writing and story telling. However I have only ever read four of the books in the series because it takes me a long time to finish a book no matter the length. Honestly, some times I am lucky to get through two a year! I blame my PS3 and DVDs. I have been reading the first Game of Thrones book since early Summer! My friend lent me the next three and I did warn him it would be a long time before he saw them again!

Stand By Me


It's December 1st already! I can't believe how fast this year has gone, especially since I arrived back from my Orlando holiday during August. I'm actually a little behind this year on my Christmas shopping but haven't got much left to do. My Grandad is proving especially difficult to buy for! 
I hope all your plans are going accordingly and you've opened your first advent calendar window. You're never too old for one ;)

So seeing as this is the festive month I have decided that my next topic should be one of my top films and it's probably a favourite of yours too as it has quite the following- Stand By Me.
