am I the only one that often wonders about the first time Charles winked at Max?

When, Where, HOW??

98% sure it was a slip-up because he stopped thinking about it - that they became normal coworkers?

THE RETURN!

Yeah, so, I had pretty much given up on this tumblr account for a while, but I’m getting more out there as far as spreading my comics and so I’m back here. Since I’ve been gone I’ve started another comic called ‘The witchild’s slave’, if you want to check that out, as well as the usual ‘This is the life’. I’ll be posting pictures and comic updates and all that good nonsense, stay tuned.

What Even Is: Fury

Fury, the latest World War 2 film starring Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf and Michael Pena, is set in the final weeks of World War 2, where the Allies advance through Germany towards Berlin. I was really hoping that this wouldn't be an unimpressive, cliched mess, and fortunately it wasn't. Fury was not, however, perfect.

Brad Pitt plays the role of Wardaddy, the commander of the four Sherman tanks the Americans have in the area. LaBeouf plays the gunner, Bible, an unfortunately stereotypical religious soldier, and Pena, playing Gordo, is the driver. The tank, named "Fury", is assigned a new co-driver, who fires the ball mounted gun at the front of the tank. This role is played by Logan Lerman, who starred in the Percy Jackson films.

The first half of the film was very interesting to watch, showing off good visual and sound effects. The way tracer rounds flew through the air, and how rounds bounced off of the tanks, as well as the attention to detail on the scrapes and dents was impressive. Sound wise, all the sounds of shells and explosions were definitely up to scratch, and were nice and loud.

I only had two problems with the film. The first, which wasn't a huge problem, was that some of the German shells fired at the Sherman tanks were either too inaccurate, or looked like they should have penetrated. I will say though, I may be expecting more than is realistic. Nevertheless, for any audience, whether they know about tank warfare or not, this shouldn't be too much of a problem.

My second problem, which was a little bigger, was the ending. SPOILER ALERT, skip this paragraph if you haven't seen the film yet. The final fight was what disappointed me. I know a tank is strong, impenetrable to small arms fire pretty much, but when you put a Sherman tank up against 200 German SS soldiers, it should not kill as many of them as it did. SS soldiers were the most highly trained soldiers in the German army, and they would never run straight at a tank, or take 10 minutes of their comrades dying to realize that they need their anti-tank weapons to take it out. Even if they were standard German soldiers, they would definitely not be that dumb.

Overall, Fury was a solid film. It had impressive visual effects, featured real tanks (yes, Tiger 131!), and presented a fairly good story. Apart from the odd cliche throughout the film, I thoroughly enjoyed Fury, and give it a 7/10. ~WhatEvenIs

What Even Is: Gone Girl

So I just saw Gone Girl. First things first, Film of The Year!

Gone Girl is a film about a man called Nick Dunne (Ben Affleck) who finds his wife Amy (Roseamund Pike) missing, on their 5th wedding anniversary. The police are called and a full scale investigation is launched. Clues are found, which along with Nicks increasingly suspicious activity lead the police to begin to investigate him.

Let me tell you, what you have just read contains no movie-ruining spoilers. This is a long film, just over two and a half hours, but it manages to create and hold tension for its entire duration, with twists and turns throughout. The film is slow moving, but there was not a moment in the film where I felt it could pick up the pace, and the pace is what keeps you on the edge of your seat for those few moments where everything explodes.

Roseamund Pike presents an amazing performance in this film, and the flashbacks she is in are really the only backstory you'll get. Ben Affleck arguably left some to be desired, but I think his character was meant to be played the way he does. Carrie Coon also stars, an actress usually seen on TV, specifically her 10 episodes in The Leftovers this year. But she also does an amazing job of playing Margo Dunne, Nicks sister. All characters conceal their emotions, which are only truly shown in short outbursts.

As for the actual plot, I can't say much because you have to go in knowing as little as possible. Cinematography, superb. Gone Girl kept me on the edge of my seat for its entirety, and certainly deserves its 9/10. ~WhatEvenIs
