[From The Mancave] – Blue Lily, Lily Blue – Maggie Stiefvater (INT’l Giveaway)

3 Comments

From The Mancave is the working title tagline to connect readers to book-related swag, giveaways, and free multimedia content from me to you. Don’t judge me too harshly for the name as I too am laughing at my own sanity for being unable to think of anything else. And I don’t mean to offend anyone with the title.

Miscellaneous is the tagline to store my random posts that don’t really belong elsewhere. It’s more for consistency sake so I can have an itty-bitty picture to follow suit with the post.

2014, alternatives, movies, trailers

[Alternatives] – Movie Trailers – Jurassic World

7 Comments

Alternatives is the tagline feature for other forms of entertainment outside of discussing literature. These posts may encompass television, movies, games, and music with a randomized flavour of the moment approach to each post.

Alternatives
Movie Trailers – Jurassic World

Jurassic-World-Poster-OfficialWell played, marketing. Trolling the world by saying the trailer is to be released on American Thanksgiving Day then releasing it two days early–today. WELL. PLAYED. I won’t say much more to this other than there being so much childhood nostalgia for me with this movie because it has been what 13 years since the last movie? Geez.

Did we need another movie from this franchise? Probably not. But who’s keeping score anyways? Dinosaurs are just cool, and anyone who says otherwise had no childhood…or no soul. You can choose the lesser evil. And now I have that signature Jurassic Park medley stuck in my head. Classic. That is all I will say as I let you watch the trailer.

But I want to know what some of your fondest memories of the franchise are? Dennis Nedry trying to play fetch the stick with a dilophosaurus was good times!

Cheers,
Joey
