Deadpool

Posted 1:54pm Sunday 6th March 2016 by Lisa Blakie

Rating: A- Wade Wilson (aka Deadpool), is the newest addition to the slew of superheroes in the Marvel cinematic universe. Played exceptionally well by Ryan Reynolds, Deadpool is all about sex, hefty violence, and Wham!  This is not a Disney Marvel film (Avengers, Iron Man, Thor etc), it is Read more...

Steve Jobs

Bloodborne: The Old Hunters

Posted 2:17pm Sunday 6th March 2016 by Campbell Calverley

Rating: A+ Bloodbourne was released in March of 2015, and I realised that it was the best game that I would play for a long time.

G.L.O.S.S. Girls Living Outside Society’s Shit

Posted 2:22pm Sunday 6th March 2016 by Millicent Lovelock

I was initially tempted to describe G.L.O.S.S.’s debut EP Girls Living Outside Society’s Shit as feeling like a punch to the gut, but I was wrong, it’s a whole lot more like throwing a punch with all your weight behind it. This EP makes my heart race and my palms itch. It is walls Read more...
