If you’re a loyal Keanu Reeves fan or extremely attached to the original Point Break you will be notably bugged by this extreme sport focused remake. If, however, you’re a new generation or have absolutely no attachment to the original then you might just get a kick out of it. If the hair-raising daredevil scenes don’t appeal to you then at the very least you’ll get to enjoy the view as blonde Johnny Utah and brunette Bodhi tackle pretty mountains and CGI looking waves while they show off their bad ass tattoos and sparkly blue eyes every chance they get.

Adam Brand and The Outlaws at Hallam Hotel
Who & What: Adam Brand and The Outlaws
Where: Hallam Hotel, Melbourne
When: 28th January, 2016
Take five musicians, mash them together and what do you get? – Australia’s newest country super-group, of course. I’m talking about the Outlaws, consisting of Adam Brand, Travis Collins, Matt Cornell, Drew McAlister (of McAlister Kemp fame) and Mike Carr (also known as the musical comedy character, Buddy Goode). All talented musicians in their own right – with their own respected fan bases to boot! – it’s hard to imagine how an idea like this could possibly fail.

Thoughts on Fiddler on the Roof
I’ve been lucky enough to see Fiddler on the Roof twice now – once during opening night and secondly, yesterday. This happened to be a coincidence, but it was nice to see the show from upstairs to seated near the front of the stage. I can’t seem to make up my mind which I preferred more. I liked that upstairs you could appreciate the choreography, but if you’re blind like me, nothing beats being close to the stage. So saying this, I would encourage you to see it twice, if you can, as you get to see a different perspective of the show depending where you sit.
I will have some tidbits from the media call up soon too!
But for now, there’s more under the cut!
Thoughts on Goosebumps The Movie
Like a lot of people, I grew up as a teenager reading the Goosebumps series. I don’t recall if I managed to read them all and I’d be at a loss to rattle off the whole list of titles for you (without the help of Google) but I do know I went through a stage where they were pretty much all I read. And I visited the library a lot. There was something addictive about the characters and the plot twists that as a young reader I never quite saw coming. And the best part? There was always another adventure I could turn to when the last one drew to an end.
While I may no longer remember the storylines and characters vividly I still acknowledge that Goosebumps were a great part of my childhood. So when I saw the previews for the Goosebumps movie, my eyes of course lit up and my curiosity was ignited. Would they do the books great homage? Would I recognise any of the characters or has my imagination and memory distorted them some time ago?
Here are my thoughts (I will try to avoid spoilers wherever possible but I can’t help but make mention to some of the characters that appeared so consider this a “SPOILER ALERT” just in case). Continue reading “Thoughts on Goosebumps The Movie”

Alan Cumming sings Sappy Songs
What: Alan Cumming Sings Sappy Songs
When: January 7th, 2016
Where: The Playhouse at the Arts Centre Melbourne
Alan Cumming sings sappy songs, yes he does. But the true brilliance of his performance lies in the delivery of his (often-naughty) stories.
I’m going off memory, so some details may be slightly off or incomplete. Sorry.
