Image
Here it is at last, after waiting one year after the amazing Marvel's Avengers, here it comes, the first movie from "Phase 2" starring the one and only, the one we all love Tony Stark aka. Iron Man aka. Robert Downey Jr.! And guess what? This is the best Iron Man film so far... This is the main plot:  Marvel's "Iron Man 3" pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy's hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?

Oblivion - Review

Another action-film for Tom Cruise...that was my first thought when I heard about this movie for the first ime. But then I decided to give it a try and I'm happy I did it! The plot: Jack Harper is one of the last few drone repairmen stationed on Earth. Part of a massive operation to extract vital resources after decades of war with a terrifying threat known as the Scavs, Jack's mission is nearly complete. Living in and patrolling the skies from thousands of feet above, his existence is brought crashing down when he rescues a stranger from a downed spacecraft. Her arrival triggers a chain of events that forces him to question everything he knows and puts the fate of humanity in his hands.  As I said, the landmarks are amazing! The main actor, Mr. Cruise, acts as he always does, a lone ranger who's in love with a misterious woman who appears in his dreams...I don't want to spoil anything as this film has a couple of twists during the end. He does a good job as al

Top 10 Videogame Characters

I always wanted to make a list about this, never got enough time to do it but...what the heck? I'm doing it right now!  This is my personal favourite list from games from this to older generations, starting with number 10...and ending with number 1... · 10 - Auron (Final Fantasy X) "This is it. This is your story, It all begins here." One of the coolest characters ever created. This is a good example of bad-ass and good person at the same time. He appeared in Final Fantasy X and Kingdom Hearts II.  He is a very misterious character with a secret and dark past which is revealed at the end of the game, he would do anything to protect his friends.   · 9 - Aerith Gainsborough (Final Fantasy VII)   "I never blamed you, not once. You came for me. That's all that matters" The sweet girl that helps you at the beginning of the game and becomes one of the most powerful characters at the end. SPOILERS!! Even the sad part of the game when she dies,

Will the Circle Be Unbroken?

I just wanted to share this amazing song, the title is "Will the Circle Be Unbroken?", it was written in 1907 and is has been made famous from a videogame. It's really good and has beautiful lyrics. At the end you can watch a video and hear Elizabeth (yes, from Bioshock Infinite) sing it! There are loved ones in the glory, Whose dear forms you often miss. When you close your earthly story, Will you join them in their bliss? CHORUS: Will the circle be unbroken By and by, by and by? Is a better home awaiting In the sky, in the sky? In the joyous days of childhood Oft they told of wondrous love Pointed to the dying Saviour; Now they dwell with Him above. (Chorus) You remember songs of heaven Which you sang with childish voice. Do you love the hymns they taught you, Or are songs of earth your choice? (Chorus) You can picture happy gath'rings Round the fireside long ago, And you
