I’m not usually one to engage in the dialogue of ‘new year, new me’. I got a lot from 2015, and I would want to say that I was a good person throughout. But something weighs heavy on my mind. I have become a fuccboi.

First Reactions: Star Wars VII - The Force Awakens [SPOILERS]
The film is brilliant. It shows that no matter the hype, a film can and should be able to deliver. New and old characters combine to move Star Wars into a new age, and if this film doesn't leave you on tenterhooks waiting for the next two, then nothing will!

Condemned: Homes on Death Row
I never have that much fun in abandoned houses. These were people’s homes, full of memories It is an all too acute reminder that my house too is at risk of succumbing to the march of ‘progress’.
"Mistress America" is sharp social commentary disguised as a fun indie screwball
