by Athena // 4 January, 2013 // 2 Comments
Labyrinth (11-12 12 12) – Wow, I loved this movie. I missed out on this classic growing up. Apparently it did poorly at the box office and with some critics. In any case, I’m sad that Jim Henson was disappointed... Continue reading →

by Athena // 3 August, 2012 // No Comments

The Hunger Games movie

by Athena // 4 April, 2012 // No Comments
It’s been over a year since I read the books, but I did enjoy them for the most part. They are entertaining and it is definitely a series which I thought would translate on screen especially since the author Suzanne... Continue reading →

Monthly Movies March 2012

by Athena // 1 April, 2012 // No Comments

by Athena // 14 March, 2012 // No Comments
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 (01 02 2012) – What is there to say really; it was fine. I feel the director didn’t take it all too seriously and there was some nice visuals in there actually. I... Continue reading →

The Artist

by Athena // 10 March, 2012 // No Comments
I really enjoyed this film, and I had a feeling I would because I like silent films and black and white movies. I spent most of my high school years watching old movies and really appreciating them. It has been... Continue reading →
