Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D – Blazing Minds Movie ReviewPosted by Karen in Film Reviews, Rhyl Apollo CinemaStar Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D has now been released to a world that has probably seen the film that many times they know it off by heart.. I remember that day when the original Star Wars was released in 1977, waiting in a queue for a film that was going to be something different and a film that would change Sci-Fi movies forever, followed by two sequels and three prequels, Star Wars still brings fans together for films that stand the test of time. Image via Wikipedia Now Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D has been released in a converted 3D format, ok we know that The Phantom Menace isn’t the best in the Star Wars saga, but I suppose George Lucas decided that this time around he would release the films in episode order, rather than before in the original releases of episodes 4, 5 and 6 then 1,2 and 3. Personally for me I would have liked A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and then Return Of The Jedi released first, but that could be something to do with that’s how I saw them first time around and yes I did see them in their original non-updated releases, which I do prefer! So anyway, let’s get on to Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D, as I said earlier this is probably the Star Wars film that gets a lot of criticism from film goers worldwide, on its original release the critics didn’t like it and poor Jar-Jar Binks came in with so much flak it was hard to believe that a character in a film could be so hated! But besides that, we have to tip our imaginary hats to George Lucas for bringing the origin of the Star Wars saga to life, though it can be a little daft in places and hugely hated by the professional film reviewers (but hey what do they know anyway!). 10 Comments » Beat The Winter Blues With This Feel Good Food InfographicPosted by John in Guests Posts, HealthIf you’re a UK resident, then you’ll be no stranger to the dark, cold conditions that permeate throughout the winter months (and often even the summer months). During these darker periods, the lack of sunshine has been proven to cause the levels of the chemical serotonin (the so-called ‘feel good’ chemical) in the brain to dip, resulting in a feeling of depression often referred to as the ‘Winter blues’. So how can you beat these Winter blues? What steps can you take to help you feel better during the colder, darker months? According to Put Pork On Your Fork, you can help beat the blues by eating what they refer to as ‘mood boosting’ foods (including pork, spinach, chilli, mango, bananas, walnuts, salmon, pineapple, chocolate and avocado).

We will critically look at the crash courses under this topic, because, social media education is the key to being productive. If you want to know how social media works, you need to learn consistently. The answer you’re looking for might not be present within your niche, or it could be very difficult to get your hands on the right substance. But by researching and metric testing, there would be an overflow of ideas to improve your social media returns on investment. 1. Choose Your Offer CarefullySkin care magazines know how to target the right audience. Some offers will perform well in one social media network and fail woefully in another. That’s where testing come in. You need to know the type of marketing offers which suits your audience. Social media users are selective. If Twitter is your promotional system, then you need to understand what your followers are currently interested in, and work towards fulfilling them. It begins with knowledge of your niche, the intensity of the problem they face and how desperate they need answers. Is someone looking for ways to tan his skin? That’s a quick point to capitalize on. Twitter is like a quick-release network. Choose your marketing offers carefully. It’s vital to your success. 2. Focus On Proven Marketing Formats“You shouldn’t reinvent the wheel!” Over the years, several skin care magazines have been made commercial and the popularity of these information products are booming.

Of course they want to make lots of money, but some also make films that will get the audience to place themselves in a situation and question themselves how they would handle it. So as I journeyed to the movie theater over the weekend to see the new Liam Neeson (plays the character John Ottway) offering The Grey, I was curious to think about how I would deal with such unforgiving circumstances should I ever be placed in them. For those who are not aware of the film or are waiting to view it, the basic plot revolves around a plane crash in the Alaskan wilderness that claims the lives of a number of Ottway’s co-workers who are members of an oil crew. Surviving the horrific plane crash for Ottway is all the more intriguing given the fact that he comes close to committing suicide early on in the movie, only to be deterred by hearing the howl of a nearby wolf. In the opening moments of the movie, Ottway is seen picking off a wolf with his rifle, given the fact the wolves have become a nuisance to his company’s oil producing efforts.
