My Future Plans

How's everyone doing? Two years ago I started this blog and was very much into it. From the blog I discovered my real passion was for YouTube, created a channel and started making videos. Now, that's mostly all I do and I don't write very often for Matropolis. 

However, I'm not going to stop blogging. There will still be the odd post on occasion but YouTube will be my primary focus. I'm loving it and met a great bunch of people.

Jurassic World At My Reopened Childhood Cinema!


Power Rangers, Independence Day, Toy Story, Casper, & Jurassic Park...these were just some of the films I watched at the old Odean cinema opposite Queen St station in Cardiff. I was only a kid at the time and loved the place. So many of my childhood memories featured around that cinema and I was gutted when it closed back in 2001.

So imagine my delight when it reopened 2 months ago under Premier cinemas at just £4 a ticket! I knew it wasn't going to be long before I returned there so last weekend my friend and I paid a visit and what better film to go and see than Jurassic World???

Exactly.

I Completed my 2nd Zelda Game!


Yes! And it only took me 17 years after it's original release! Growing up without a Nintendo 64 though it's hardly surprising. 

The game of course is The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time!

I completed the HD remake on the 3DS.

Dr. Who Symphonic Spectacular


I've been to a few concerts and comic con events but never before had I been to see an orchestra. So several months ago when my parents asked me if I wanted go and watch the Dr. Who Symphonic Spectacular in Cardiff I was a bit apprehensive. However, as I had never seen one live and enjoy the show I decided to go along.

I'm glad I did.

Murdered: Soul Suspect


There's always that one game where you wait for the price to drop before buying it because you heard it's ok but not great. That's the case with Murdered: Soul Suspect.

I purchased the game on the PS4 and had a good deal for it. 

The story is as follows: The character you control is Detective Ronan who is investigating a string of recent murders. However, he ends up being murdered himself but remains behind as a ghost until he has solved the case and who bumped him off.

The Decline Of The Tuber


Since creating Matropolis I've met a great number of people from YouTube whom I now call friends. The gaming community on the video site are absolutely fantastic and it's been great interacting with everyone.

I've been active for nearly a year now and love filming videos to upload, even though it's given me less time to blog but in a way this blog was a starting point to for me.

It was YouTube where I discovered Rick Idak and have become involved in his Marine Boy fan film. All thanks to a comment left on a video. Amazing how it started all from that.

And Now Lloyd's Bank Creeps Me Out Too!


I was shocked when I saw this. Whilst watching the adverts on TV one for Lloyd's Bank came on. Nothing out of the norm there until they showed the above image! This is from a Humpty Dumpty cartoon collection I had on video from when I was a kid which contains the same cartoons from my Old Cartoons Creep Me Out post.
