| A legendary journey takes flight once more. From animation to reality, How to Train Your Dragon soars again! Experience How to Train Your Dragon on the largest screen possible! Take to the skies and get your RealD 3D tickets now. 🐉⚔🛡🔨⛵ As an ancient threat endangers both Vikings and dragons alike on the isle of Berk, the friendship between Hiccup, an inventive Viking, and Toothless, a Night Fury dragon, becomes the key to both species forging a new future together. |
From Dean DeBlois, the creative visionary behind the acclaimed HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON trilogy, comes a stunning live-action re-imagining of the film that launched the beloved franchise. With the release of this movie I learned that this is a series of books written by Cressida (cool name) Cowell.
While I enjoyed getting to see Gerard Butler dressed up in the ‘viking’ garb (real Vikings didn’t wear horned helmets) and getting to see the characters truly come to life. There were parts I felt like were missing when it delt with Toothless. Little nuances. I always swore whoever came up with Toothless had to have known my cat Sully (at the time the original came out) as they were both black, had the same personality, cheeky, goofy etc the big soulful eyes and I was quite disappointed I didn’t see those parts in this movie. Sully passed in 2018 and I couldn’t bare to watch the last one for some time. But if the parts are in this that I said Toothless is like Sully, does that mean I’m starting to forget her ways?
Aside from that bit of personal stuff about the movie I believe It was a spot on remake of the animated original, however I think I like the animated one better. I think some things transformed to ‘real life’ better than others in this.
As I already have a Classic Cuts post for the franchise I’m just making this quickie for you to find it. I will say there was one scene/sequence that’s if not just Up as a nominee for an Avatar Award, I think its highly likely it may win this year!
| Pandora’s heating up. Jake, Neytiri, and the Sully clan are still reeling from Neteyam’s death. A new aggressive hot-headed Na’vi tribe–the Ash People, led by the fiery Varang arrive sparking chaos on Pandora. The conflict escalates and a new moral focus emerges. James Cameron takes us back to the wild, glowing world of Pandora in this epic sequel. |
3 hours17 minutes!!!
Read more: Avatar Fire and AshStill in mourning over their dead son/brother I think spider is my fave of the kids…ironically funny as I hate spiders.
Wind traders have what look like flying jelly fish. seeing them I was oohing and ahhing, made me felt like a wonderous child
Sort of reminds me of a A big air balloon, with sails being pulled by a manta ray looking creature of sorts.
Spider has an incident with his breather mask. So Jake and Naterri agree to bring him to his own kind…”the pink asses” aka pig sling or pink skins ,On way spider’s mask alarm goes off again really how do they charge or get refilled
On the way to wherever they are going the military guy sites them on camera and we have a sky fight…with the fire people
I wish our worlds flora and fauna glowed like that, at least at night or certain time of year. Ok scientists you wanna play god and play with genetics etc!?!?! Make me a palm tree, a hibiscus 🌺, maple tree esp. the Japanese maple to do that sort of thing…. You may need some fireflies (however you’ll have to breed them as they are sadly endangered… Sure the bug I actually like) as well as those glow worm things and the scorpions etc that glow under black light)
Seems naterri’s oldest daughter is going to be a wise woman /shaman whatever you want to call it
The kids are attacked, and what are the “eggs” the ash leader shoots..and shoe goes on with her speech if you to call it that
“Fire people use their hair tentacles as a weapon using psycho warfare I guess u can call it”
Wow isn’t that a reveal to who Kiri is
WTF are you assholes shooting the whale thing!?!?! What’s that yellow stuff? What do you need it for? Or does it do?
Sully and naterrie marital probs .. I think she forgot that Sully was human before they got married
Moral of story guns, and humans are poison to all worlds
Military guy col miles quarich attacks the water people, then goes to the ash people territory to give them guns so they join him
Oh was that the great tree from the first movie (in their camp)?
Nice scary decor with the teeth when he arrives and In her hut…lol after she doses him
Fire came from mountain when she was little … She went to the fire and learned it’s way and that she IS the fire and turn their backs on aiwa
Col. Will help her spread her fire 🔥…Ash people make me think they are based on the native Americans etc… And the leader reminds me of one of those raptors that fan out with her head dress
Monkey boy spider becomes a guinea pig when caught by “dad”
there are Squid things “deep dwellers come to judge you”
Mycillium is the white stuff that comes up and covers the body when someone dies like in first movie and now that is in spider
Jake Sully gives himself up to col. Toxic a hole To save his family and the water village tribe.
I think that hard headed walking definition of toxic masculinity of the Colonel, may come around to Jake’s side. He actually shows a softer side a couple times in this.
SO what are they going to do to Jake now that they have him?
Oh an attack on the base! This is where I wish Natteri said SURPRISE and some cursing in Na’vi aside from Scoun.
YES!!!! Turok and they call upon the clans again.
Whale court looks like Stonehenge!
There’s some portal looking thing the military call a ‘flux’ (where’s the capasiter?) and “it will tear your face off” if you go near it. REALLY? can we actually see that happen?
Ok soa little context for my upcoming lame joke… I read Moby Dick a few years ago. It was such a chore it took me all year if not more! So it sucked and letting you know now USE THE CLIFF NOTES (or whatever they call them these days)
🤣this is my revenge🤣 Moby dick just ate Captain Ahab which looked a lot like jaws eating quint 🤣 and least one of my fave parts plus
GO Kiri you make this Scorpio proud! using her braid as a scorpion tail! Is this what her purpose is?
I think that vortex ‘flux’ thing is something like a black hole or worm hole (I may be getting them confused) but things don’t disappear when it goes in it just gets ripped apart. Maybe I’d like it to a car crusher as well
I watched the first movie as I was a fan of Sam Worthington so Jake Sully was my favorite character, however with the new characters of the previous and this movie I believe I’ve evolved to Spider or Kiri (maybe both) being my favorite characters.
For a 3+ hour movie I was nervous that I was going to get bored. But thankfully for me it didn’t feel like it was. I’d say the pacing was perfect as it felt like a normal 2 hour movie. There’s enough going on, action scenes and BEAUTIFUL flora and fauna as well as different creatures to entertain you.
There’s a part of the movie where Col. asshole well I won’t say it but I’m thinking its a fake that somehow like the villain he is, he finds a way to cheat death to come back and annoy us. Apparently I may be right as on IMDB the next movie still lists him in it. (unless of course its just flashbacks)
Sadly we have to wait (according to IMDB) until 2029 and 2031 for the next instalments! I’m not sure how that can be right as from what I’ve read when James Cameron filmed I believe the 2nd movie that they filmed all the sequels together (unless it was when they filmed the third)
I may not be a Trekkie or whatever they call Star Wars fans but if there’s a nick name for Avatar fans I’d accept being one. I may not be super obsessed but I do have some books and trying to find a Turok makto toy figurine (that’s NOT a $40 collectible) I just want to put it up on my DVD/blu-ray library as I add little pieces of pop culture in the empty spaces as well as on top.
I think I liked this more than the Way of Water (aside from being on the water I don’t remember much of it). I do need to get it on blue-ray as well as this one as IF ITS NOT A HARD COPY you don;t really own it! (bought it on prime? YOU ONLY OWN IT AS LONG AS THEY HAVE THE RIGHTS TO IT.
Be sure to get a large popcorn and beverage you’ll need it! Lately I’ve been getting the TROPICAL Coca-cola (I’ve only seen it available in that machine my local Showcase Cinema uses for the soft drinks. Honestly I don’t think I’ve ever noticed it available when Dad and I stop at Wendy’s and he gets a soda. but I digress just a little recommendation.
once all the movies are out and I can maybe find an encyclopedia of all the names of the FLowers, plants and creatures I can maybe do a classic Cuts!
| ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ Makes $1 Billion |

🌋 Avatar: Fire and Ash: 🆕 $88M domestic opening, $345M global debut, $400M+ budget. James Cameron’s threequel lands softer than ‘The Way of Water’s’ $134M bow but above the OG’s $77M start. IMAX hauled in $43.6M globally, good for the format’s 5th-biggest opening ever. The three ‘Avatar’ films have now grossed over $5.6B combined, with Cameron owning three of the top four highest-grossing movies of all time. But his films have never been about opening weekends; both prior entries held No. 1 for seven consecutive frames before climbing to historic totals.

This year’s Avatar Awards will also honor entertainment from some previous years. Aside from 2021’s abbreviated blogcast, we have had technical difficulties following the pandemic.
As I scour the entertainment stratosphere for movies and series from 2024-2025 I have yet to see (plus any previous I’m waiting to see without buying or renting. I recently learned that “Buying is only until the license runs out where you bought it then it disappears” !!! so it IS BETTER to have a physical (DVD/blu-ray)copy.
Even if I may not have found at least one ‘nom’ for each category, however I haven’t found a movie I thought to be there.
The Avatar Awards WILL always ‘”AIR” on the same date December 29th every year . However of course life happens and sometimes pandemics as well but aside from the occasional “hiccup” The Avatar Awards will be published each year (even if its only one award we give.
Best TV show opening sequence– Duster It:Welcome To Derry
Network– Matlock High Potential Elsbeth
Cable show(s) IT:Welcome to Derry
Streaming Show – Motorheads (Prime) Waterfront(Netflix) (sadly the previous 2 were canceled)
Almighty Johnsons (about a bunch of brothers that are the reincarnations of Norse Gods) on Peacock . I was interested when it came out sadly I never got to It then however highly enjoying it in December 2025
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (ended)
actor/ Actress– Charlie Hunnam (monster season 3 The story of Ed gein)
Episode- Waterfront (Netflix) 1.4 (& BEST ENDING)
Mr. Midnight: Beware the Monsters 1.5 My Class Vampire Vampire dancing isn’t funny, its enthralling which was the point, Also perfect type of son and way choreographed for it.
The Stand: 1.8 The Stand The melting Guy, Lightning, and the Final Destination like death. I thought I saw the lightning strike the water in the pool so why are they not dead? Oh F’awesome cut in half by the lightning! I guess the lightning came in through the the broken skylight and struck something which turned the place into a faraday cage with bolts flying everywhere… Zeus is out of control! Up until this episode I found the series a drag.
The Librarians 1.11 …and the Graffiti of the Gods This was a fun episode. Someone on TV time described it as “Doctor Who meets Supernatural” (IF you are a Supernatural fan, you know the episode, I don’t recall the title of the Supernatural episode with the black holes and just Looney toons type stuff happening? but I think you can envision the one I mean). Honestly I may not be an artist in that way, but I like the idea of “What if your doodles, and paintings et al, come to life. My current project would be very problematic as I’m working on a diamond painting of many of the horror antagonists like Michael Myers, Jaws, Freddy, Chucky, Pennywise, (there’s at least 20 if not 30 characters.)
Dexter: Resurrection Episode Call me Red a Serial Killer Dinner Party with Kristen Ritter, Neil Patrick Harris,Eric Stonestreet, and Peter Dinklege,
It:Welcome to Derry: s1. e7 The Black Spot Fun, Fire, Phantoms and more! This I believe is the best episode by far. Pennywise on the prowl and honestly parts reminded me of part of the movie Sinners!
Almighty Johnsons s2 e5 A Damn Fine Woman Axel (aka reincarnated Odin) turns into a girl!!! The actress that played the female Axel I felt did an aswesome job, dramatic but comedic. Works with the myths of Odin being able to to change form, however in the myths it was Thor who dressed up (because of Loki) to rescue on of the goddesses…

I know I don’t normally include this, as the only arcades are ticket machines now, and those craptastic bores of building, matching etc games for tablets and phones. I prefer old school arcade (my fave was Rampage and pinball machines) and consol games like Mario, Mortal Kombat (yes! No idea how long it took them. But we have Rampage for I think our ps2! . We don’t play video games often so it’s time for a new console for when we are In The mood but @playstation and the other brands NEED TO START MAKING IT SO EVEN THE FIRST consol game will play in the latest., and not just a ps 4 in a PS5..
But I digress It’s been some time but I FINALLY was able to play Mortal Kombat again this time on my cousin’s PS4 and holy crap! I jaw dropped at the graphics not to mention was a bit confused seeing terminator, RoboCop, Sylvester Stallone (can’t recall if Rocky or Rambo) and I believe Spawn as character options.
While we weren’t able to play versus each other due to the 2nd controller not working (yeah my undefeated streak still stands😁)
I forget how many games I played (always as Scorpion..) as we switched off, but aside from one game vs the CPU I won, and the last game I accidentally selected retry Instead of changing fighter but I still won!!
When I got to watch my cousin play it was like watching a movie fight scene. Compared to the old school graphics I grew up with (Even when it was no longer 8 bit but could see character faces AND the evolve through the years I was still astonished at this even tho there’s many commercials for video games that when I see I think it’s going to be a movie then I get disappointed when they say what console it’s on. With that
I really need to find a PS5 and the Mortal Kombat for it. But need to find some deal on the console so I can get a few games to go with.

Four brothers living in New Zealand are modern reincarnations of Norse gods. Axel The youngest of the brothers turns 21, and learns he and his brothers are the reincarnations of the Norse Gods. (What a birthday gift!) In their earthly vessels, they are not at full power, and so Axel who is supposed to be Odin must find the reincarnation of Frigg, Odin’s wife. Along the way they come across multiple antagonistic characters and groups. There’s Loki of course, Maori gods, and there are God hunters who think they’re demons (even though Norse gods were around LONG BEFORE the so-called one true God/ christianity) ,
Parental WARNING: Butt shots and sex scenes

Originally I wasn’t going to do a post on this; however with half the 3rd season to go, we’re here! Sadly as I haven’t been doing my own episode reviews and recaps I’m not sure as to which direction to go for this post. I will warn you however that the review may and likely be all over as I remember parts of the show etc
I will say I wish there were 5 seasons (but lets see how season 3 and the last ends)
I forget what station this came out on, but as I track the episodes on the TV time app I see it was on CW and currently watching on Peacock. I wanted to watch but I think I already had my show schedule full at the time maybe. Thankfully I am celebrating the coming of the Winter Solstice with my own gods and thanks to streaming I don’t have to watch the incessant parade of the same holiday crap (minus Die Hard and Home Alone) that has been on since I was born (and don’t get me started with cookie cutter Lifetime and The Hallmark channel movies)
When I first started watching and I heard them say Olaf the brother that’s bald is supposed to be the God Baldr, I couldn’t help burst out laughing. Baldr is supposed to be handsome anyway there’s more to this version of Baldr so listen carefully. He’s a stall drink of a surfing stoner dude
Mike is the oldest and after their father left, he was the one that took care of them and the mother. He’s noble and doesn’t normally use his powers for himself.
I want to give a list of the best episodes or at least most funny however as I didn’t start this when I first started watching, the one I can remember that was hysterical was
Season 2 episode 5 a Damn Fine Woman. I think this should win an award
Axel along with his flatmates go to a pimp and hoes party only to come home to fall asleep in the dress and wake as an actual woman!
How to describe Axel? Anders, Olaf, Gaia, Mike are all easy to give a quick description of, but Axel not so much for me. While not a kid, but the youngest yet tallest (I think even taller than Olaf) he’s a good guy or at least tries to stay so, sometimes I feel we don’t see the real him other than all the (In his or Gaia’s words) God mess. You can feel his frustrations with his newfound other self and his God side of life.
The episode where Axel/Odin falls ill is memorable. There’s also a few others however I don’t want to ruin them with plots and who is which God (part of the fun is finding out who is who) Also its not just the gods, the goddesses are here as well. However I did not like the way they wrote Freya.
Dean O’Gorman I remember watching in the late 90s show Young Hercules as Iolaus which starred Ryan Gosling as Hercules and you will more than likely know him as Fili in The Hobbit movies. Playing Anders who is a freaking perv, or maybe I should say a womanizer. Anders IS the one night stand, whether he uses his powers or not, he’s basically in the sack if not every episode, than every other. There’s an episode Anders goes to Norway on a work trip, and he brings back Yggdrasil; The Tree of Life, Well a branch anyway.
There’s an episode one of them tried to get rid of being the God he is (understandable considering the powers) there’s ones with Eve (won’t say more) there’s a wedding that is probably not very good for the 2 involved, however I do LOVE the goth like decor well colors of the house interior the married couple move into.
Ty is a romantic, however to me looks like a rat and makes ice sculptures . He’s supposed to still be friends with his past girlfriends. He is the opposite of Andres (too bad he doesn’t have the looks)
I had a chuckle during s.3 E.7 when Axel takes a pic in Norsewood on the corner of Odin and Viking way.
Gaia can be so annoying but then again in a sense while not physically abusive He father tries controlling her, then when they all think she may be Frigg and turns 21 they talk about her like she’s not there and never to her. Imagine how it goes when The chauvinistic Maori gods come into the picture.
One of the “God rules” is mortals are not aloud to know. However like in the DC Tv series universe it seems they are either found out in some way or end up kind of not having a choice but to tell them they are.
As for the last 2 or 3 episodes it feels like a decline. The whole show was find Frigg then they start with possibly Ragnarok happening. If it wasn’t that there was something that felt like it took away from the endgame of the story, which I felt disappointed in the end.
Honestly I think the first season was better but at least some if not all the characters change in some way… Anders and Mike seem to change I’d swear it was a body swap…Mike becomes a jerk and dare I say Anders seems if not becomes honorable!?!?
IMDB * Wiki series overview and episodes plot summaries
Johnson has described his casting approach as akin to “throwing a dinner party.”
Boy the article Benoit Blanc Is Back on the Case wasn’t kidding! Sadly I’m not able to find a plot summary, all IMDB says is “Benoit Blanc returns for his most dangerous case yet”. What does the title Wake Up Dead Man mean anyway? The first movie title came from a radio head song, and Glass Onion from a Beatles song of the same name. Maybe if we could find where “Wake Up dead man” comes from, we may have a hint. turns out Wake Up Dead Man shares its title with a 1997 U2 song off their album Pop.

Lately I have realy gotten annoyed with trying to buy soundtracks. I prefer the soundtrack as it is usually the songs you hear in the movie either written for the movie by poplar artist or a song (or songs) that are already written.
When I’ve gone to purchase one I noticed it listed as a soundtrack, but NONE of the songs I had already known in the movie were on it. Also some times the songs were all by one artist as instrumentals which means it was a score and I’ve wasted my money a few times on these because they are listed as a soundtrack and end up actually being the SCORE. As for a explanation of each, read below, you can vote for your preference and then tell me what the reason is you like that specific type.
I prefer Soundtracks because usually they actually have words to the songs, and I do like to sing along if I am in the mood. The score, really just does nothing for me. I never even notice it playing in the movie if it is even played.
Soundtrack is the songs you hear during the movie, usually of popular bands & singer or up & new commers
(Like Avengers Assemble, The Punisher, Queen of the Damned)
SCORE is the composed Orchestrated music playing in the background usually of the more dramtic scenes
Like Transformers, Avengers, Twilight ‘The Score’ & so on.
(see the 2 amazon section below & check out the description for examples)
The Rock of Ages soundtrack.. is sadly not the original bands singing the songs but the ‘characters’ from the movie.
Savages it was listed as a Soundtrack but I think its somewhat a score as none of the song titles I see are those I heard in the movie
Of the two Soundtracks I only have the Avengers Assemble which is very good, I think even if you are not one for rock music You’d still like the tunes on here. Papa Roach, Bush, Black Veil Brides, Buckcherry & more are on here.
Avengers Assemble (Original Soundtrack)
After hearing the songs in the movie, I went right on my fave. purchasing site to get it. Good thing I looked to be sure what the songs & artists were as I noticed there is a score as well.
Though Battleship is listed as a Soundtrack.. it is actually a score as there is none of the tunes from the movie listed here. There were some pretty cool classic rock songs in it & I am sad I cannot find the sound track itself.
NOw see here the reason this is a SCORE is becasue it’s BY Steve Jablonsky. Sometimes like with the titles in this one, you can tell it’s a score. With titles like Shredders & You’re going to the Navy.. You know those are from specific scenes.
