Hansel & Gretel Witch Hunters

Just caught the movie. Enjoyed it, not too bad. Interesting twist to the whole fairy tale thingy. Well it stars Jeremy "Hawkeye" Renner and Gemma Arterton. Love the story plot of the 2 kids left in the forest, finds a House made of candy and inhabited by a witch, kills the witch and become Legendary Witch Hunters. There is even an Orge in the movie named Edward !! Lots of smashed up heads when he is around. Interestingly Hansel is diabetic and has to take "insulin" shots ... how cool is that in that era and not forgetting the home made defribillator (I think ??) hand crank eletric shot to the heart woo hooo ... Overall an enjoyable movie not too much scariness and just enough action and comedy.

Late Late Resolutions 2013

Well I'll just not review last year's resolution and just stick to trying to get one going this year. I've given it some thought and decided to make it a little easier and take little baby sets to get Resolutions completed. So here are my 5 resolutions for the year 2013

1) Blog Update
I'm going to resolve to write something on this blog at least ONCE a week. Well so far its 2 for 2 ... just need to keep this going.

2) Reading
I resolve to do a Comic Book review once a month on some comic titles that I am reading. This should help me clear up some of the backlog of comics I have that need to be read instead of just piling up in a corner.

3) Gaming Collection
Got to put some effort into trying to complete my Futera Virtual Set of Cards for Series 3. Still missing some players to complete the set. Hopefully this should be completed by the end of the year.

4) Health Issue
Instead of aiming for a target this year I will try to end the year not as heavy as I was in the beginning of the year. Well that should hopefully motivate me to keep fit. Now all I need is to get a Bathroom scale.

5) Running
This will be a little slower as I look for ward to running 5 races this year at least. Well my yearly favourite REAL Run and Standard Charteredd Marathon are 2 which I want to join. Looking for 3 more runs at leastt.

Well that's the resolutions for the year. I hope to be able to report back at least some if not all were accomplished.
