Avenge this, baby

Avengers. Is. Everything.
Read my full review-column-hybrid over at The Daily Telegraph HERE.

A snippet:

"THE Avengers is the greatest action movie since Terminator 2: Judgment Day. 

Need further proof?

How about hundreds of fans embracing each other on George St at 3am in the morning after attending midnight screenings?

For the hardcore geeks out there - myself included - The Avengers is the accumulation of some of pop culture’s greatest superheroes. Together. In one movie.

It connects the crumbs and clues Marvel Studios have been leaving in their films since Iron Man and it doesn’t disappoint."

Snow way! It's getting to be a fairy old tale

I know, long time no blog.

But as I mentioned all of two posts ago I've been channeling a lot of time and energy into my role at The Daily Telegraph. A role which has led me to my FIRST online film column for those guys.

I'm quite chuffed about it. In what I hope will be the beginning of many more pieces for The Tele, I take a look at Hollywood's latest obsession: fairy tale movies.

Here's a sneak peek:

"ONCE upon a time, in a land far away, there was an original idea. That land isn't Hollywood.


The more realistic scenario is the original idea was stolen by an evil Queen and locked away in a stone tower where film producers could never reach it.

The land is therefore inundated with remake after rehash after reboot of every fairytale story ever created.

This year alone we have three Snow White movies hitting our screens. Yes, three."
