Visual vs. Storytelling

After watching 'Only God Forgives' yesterday I was left with a question in my head. This movie was visually driven, no dialogue unless it was absolutely necessary. And even though this movie didn't really work for me, it was stunning. Every shot could've been a photograph. But are visuals really so important?

Summer Movies: What to watch?

Ah summer. What better time to go in a dark confided space to look at a huge screen? To hell with getting a tan or wearing your fancy sunglasses. Summer is the time of big blockbuster movies. Every year around July the biggest movies come out. And for movie freaks like me, that's heaven!
Especially for you guys I've made a list of the summer movies you just can't miss out on.

YouTube Idol

Watching YouTube videos is one of those things that I do all day, every day. I love watching what I want, when I want it. And the content on YouTube is getting better. A prime example of this is my absolute favorite YouTuber (yes that's a real thing): comicbookgirl19

Some Monsters are Real

Wow I've just found the most amazing YouTube channel! StudioADI shows their viewers incredible behind the scenes footage from their work on many big blockbuster movies. A glimpse into the movie magic that is created by practical effects. 

Remakes you should and shouldn't watch

As promised (a long time ago) I made a list of movie remakes you should and shouldn't watch.
Of course this is just my opinion and if you love any of the movies I dislike, you can still watch them. Don't worry I won't judge (maybe a little).

Strong women, strong examples

I absolutely love a strong and fearless female character in movies. And I'm not just talking about women like Angelina Jolie in 'Lara Croft: Tomb Raider', but strong women like Viola Davis in 'The Help' or Cate Blanchett in 'Elizabeth'. Strong women like Nani in 'Lilo & Stitch' and Natalie Portman in 'V for Vendetta'.
